It’s a year since Our Perspective launched and to date we’ve managed over 50,000 phones sales!
Our Perspective, the brand consultancy business set up by former Caudwell Group and Data Select Directors, Roy Taylor & Jason Kemp, has celebrated its first year in business.
Launched with the purpose of helping brands gain market share in the UK and Ireland, Our Perspective has had a successful year contracting Bullitt Group, STK, Amplicomms, Shark/Ninja domestic appliances and Monqi to name but a few.
The team has expanded to include two National Account Managers plus an Office Manager with plans to recruit more to the team in 2017.
“From our experience in distribution we saw on a daily basis the difficulties faced by smaller vendors trying to crack the UK. We wanted to take an approach that combined our experience and skills to make brands successful”, commented Taylor. “With our knowledge of the industry, contacts and commercial ability we believed there was a gap in the market for Our Perspective”.
Jason Kemp added, “The objective for the first year has been to survive, pay the bills and deliver success for our partners. It’s been a steep learning curve and without the support structure you have in a larger business we all have multiple roles and responsibilities. That said, we’ve been able to make a real impact for our partners”.
One such Our Perspective partner is Bullitt Group, the manufacturer behind the new Kodak Ektra, Cat Phone, JCB Toughphone, Ministry of Sound and Land Rover brands. Peter Stephens, CEO for Bullitt Group added, “With the speed at which Bullitt has been growing, experienced partners such as Our Perspective are essential to our business. I’d like to thank the team for their positive contribution to our success in 2016 and say Happy Birthday! Our Perspective are very much a part of the Bullitt team and demonstrate the passion and drive shared by all our colleagues”.
Our Perspective has developed a portfolio of non-competing brands which represent growing niche markets. Rugged, Big Button, Kids and Camera brands all make up a diverse range of products which offer distributors and retailers margin rich, unique propositions.
