Ricardo is one of the leading players in the digital world and he and his former Google team are a phenomenal asset to our business. We have an amazing array of clients working with us and since Ricardo’s arrival we have already been winning work from national rivals and clients including The Crystal Maze Experience, Herbalife and CuraPROX”.
