CONSUMER TECH
“If it has an app we work with them.”
A consultant on the consumer tech team explained it like this.
Over the past 10 years, companies have gained direct access to consumers.
Online retailers, e-commerce, video and music streaming services, OTA companies, mobile gaming, and AR/VR all fall under the remit of the team’s expertise.
These are all business to consumer (B2C) industries, meaning they are selling directly to customers like you.
Clients are as large as household names like Amazon or as small as startups looking to grow their business locally.
Areas we cover include, but are not limited to Digital Marketing, Brand Management, Business Development, Product and Project Managers, Account Management, Partnership Management and Affiliate Sales.
