"What I like about The Brand Nursery is that they have that rare combination of people with big agency, big brand experience but with a small agency attitude. They have consistently shown great ability to get to the heart of a branding issue, to uncover and articulate a clear strategy, and to come up with really strong creative solutions. They're also a great bunch of people to work with, whether it's a formal strategy development or informal chat or a sounding board, although I do question their fashion sense sometimes."

"We chose The Brand Nursery to build our image for a new type of school, the New Charter Academy. As the business sponsor, we understood how important the identity is to reflect the values we want for the Academy. The Brand Nursery accurately encompassed our 'promise' and 'delivered' to our timetable, including consultation with future stakeholders. And they are good guys to work with..."

"The Brand Nursery delivered on all their promises. Their ability to really understand and translate the brief into the final creative product was second to none. Not only did we get a fantastic piece of creative design the project was also delivered to a very tight deadline. The team were professional throughout, absorbed the pressure and kept a smile on their faces at all times!"

"People work with people. The Brand Nursery ticks all the right boxes in terms of strategic thinking and managing brands - both big and small. But what makes them really special is the chemistry of the team - a combination of clear thinking and creative vision and energy. Most importantly, they’ve been absolutely key in getting this business excited about its brand. I’ve had to waste no precious time explaining what I want to do. It’s understood. And that’s also why the work delivered back never comes back as anything less than stimulating, challenging, and often moving into territory I wouldn’t have thought of. ‘Strategic Marketing by numbers’ it isn’t. I’ve tended to treat most external agencies at arm’s length - but to me, they are ‘family’."
