About Russ Powell

Hello there. Come in. I'm Russ. Founder/MD of "the agency I wish I worked with when I was client-side", Sharper B2BFan of emojis and autobiographical bullet points? You're in the right place:🥊 #B2BMarketing heavy-weight🧠 Obsessed with understanding what makes people tick🎤 Former stand-up comic (explains a lot)🎙 Host of The Marketing Magpie podcast👦🏻👶🏻 Dad to 2 little herberts🏌️‍♀️ Bang average golferAnd a man on a mission to deliver the Fresh Ideas & Firepower B2B marketing needs. Because B2B marketers and brands are strugglingAnd these struggles are caused by 3 main things (my main bugbears during 12+ years client-side for Fujitsu, Microsoft, Dell, Symantec, Atos and many more)So, what's my bugbear trilogy?🥱 LACK OF CREATIVITYB2B is awash with blue logos, stock photos, and the same old whitepapers, webinars, and one-pagers. YAWN! If we're bored of them imagine how the target audience must feel?!🤷‍♂️ MARKETING (AND MARKETERS) NOT BEING VALUEDWho's the first on the chopping block when redundancies are made? The "colouring in department". If your business don't know what value you add, how can they value you?💰 LACK OF COMMERCIAL AWARENESSTied to point 2, but it’s scary how often marketers don’t appreciate the commercial responsibility they have. What marketing does must tie to metrics the business cares aboutWhich is why Sharper was bornWe give our clients - the likes of NetApp, LG, Lenovo, Wipro, Proact, Logicalis, CDW, Dell + many more - the Fresh Ideas & Firepower that deliver marketing ROI thanks to our one-of-a-kind blend of clever strategic thinking and fearlessly creative campaignsBut it's not just about WHAT we do. It's HOW we do it. Our clients tell me they love working with us for 3 main reasons:1.We've all got client side experience2.We underpin EVERYTHING we do with metrics and measures of success3.We're easy to deal with but we're direct, ask hard questions and challenge thinkingDon't believe me? Believe these guys instead:"Sharper acted as a brilliant creative engine and surpassed every expectation"Ben Walker, Group Marketing Manager, Proact (having generated a campaign ROI of 1:267 and won 2 B2B marketing awards)"The BEST agency I ever worked with"Nicole Bach, Global Channel Marketing Manager, NetApp (after multiple successful channel partner campaigns)"Without fail Sharper always deliver on time, on budget, and with campaigns that really make a difference"Julian Roberts, CMO, TaxuallyLike what you've read?
