About David Barker

An entrepreneurial and innovative consultant to local home specialist businesses.Through my various capacities over the past 25 years in New Zealand, Australia and Europe, I’ve developed a reputation for quickly identifying sales and marketing opportunities and adding tangible value to local businesses. Driven to generate better delivery and impact for local business marketing, at the sharp end of my expertise are branding and positioning, through offline and online platforms. Hailing from one of the most competitive media markets in the world, I’ve come to understand that local business owners aren’t interested in ‘what you do’, only the outcomes they want to achieve. They want advice and consultation and getting focused on that is how we bring value.I understand the mechanics of optimising local businesses, through the development of people, systems and effective marketing. I become an ally to our clients - on the same team - driving for the same target.
