Let’s work on something.
It’s time to get off the marketing treadmill and instead do things that drive the right outcomes.
Let’s figure out how to move your business forward by focusing on where it matters and stop inadvertently doing marketing that sucks.
Examples of real client work:
Establishing an Industry Challenger
“It’s the biggest shift I’ve seen in selling. I don’t have to explain who we are anymore, and our sales partners have said the same. While no one knew who we were last year, they now get asked about us all the time and have to add us to the purchase process. I’ve looked after major global brands and never came across a shift like that.”
Rory Yates, Chief Strategy Officer
“The branding work - it’s the best in the industry. I honestly believe that.”
Anthony Grosso, CMO
THE CLIENT
EIS, a leading digital insurance platform provider.
THE CHALLENGE
As a new entrant in the UK market dominated by established incumbents who had a vice-like grip on the industry, it was critical that EIS not only raise awareness of its brand but also demonstrate its value quickly to a sector that’s resistant to change. EIS needed to increase engagement, improve marketing results and sales engagement, and define a unique platform from which to engage.
THE OPPORTUNITY
The team was focused on building a new category, but while the term ‘coretech’ had gained traction, they hadn’t been able to create brand awareness. Within three months, we moved from “speed” to the new “Ambitious Insurer” positioning, followed by a brand refresh strategy and a new GTM strategy.
THE IMPACT
Having re-engineered the market messaging and positioning, the campaign process was evolved to drive a 2-speed brand and activation approach. The PR and content-driven multi-channel campaigns generated widespread coverage in key industry titles, accelerated engagement on social platforms, increased conversion rates significantly, and improved the quality of leads and deal flow timelines. The Ambitious Insurer positioning has created a powerful platform for engagement.
Key partners and clients love the messaging and feel it is truly differentiating. Best of all, prospects are proactively asking for EIS to be added to their purchase process.

After
Toni is fantastic! I very quickly felt her expertise and knowledge meant I could hand everything marketing related to her and not have to stress about it. Right away, I was impressed with how quickly she got to grips with what I was trying to build. Creating something groundbreaking and revolutionary isn’t easy, and Toni just got it. She took control of the entire marketing process and brought new insight and thinking to the team. I always felt that my marketing was in good hands, never worried in the knowledge that this area was taken care of, and the results demonstrated this. She’s focused, creative, committed, always went above and beyond and was a valued member of the team. She earns my highest recommendation.

THE CHALLENGE & OPPORTUNITY
Supporting the development and launch of a groundbreaking app designed to replace TripAdvisor!
In Good Company allows users to find ethical businesses to spend their time and money with. Alex and Sarah, the two founders, are passionate believers in sustainability, but for the app to reach it’s full potential, understanding the wider market opportunity, where to target effectively with limited budgets and the sorts of message that will help grow this solution was critical.
This strategic insight into the distinctive message and the level of differentiation they wanted to convey enabled them to create an impactful visual brand and has set them up for success.
I knew Toni was good, but I had no idea just HOW good until she worked for In Good Company to complete the most excellent customer segmentation and marketing strategy. Toni has a unique ability to combine real data and numbers with customer insight and her deep marketing expertise to deliver clear, actionable, and value-packed recommendations.
As a founder, it can be easy to think you know best. Toni's ability to step back and see the true value you offer your customers and how to communicate it is unrivalled. Someone who can take the complicated and cut straight to the core is worth their weight in gold.
I worked with Toni many years ago and we've since become friends. I'd be lying if I didn't say I had some nervousness about working with someone that I'm personally so close with but honestly my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner! She's insanely smart, accomplished and skilled - and she's brought immense value to In Good Company.
One of the best pieces of work we've done with anyone.
Alexandra Birtles, Co-Founder and CEO In Good Company
