WE’RE NOT REALLY
ONES TO BRAG
ABOUT OURSELVES
BUT INCASE YOU HAVEN’T HEARD, WE’RE CREATIVE COMMUNICATORS, PROBLEM SOLVERS, AND SURPRISINGLY NICE PEOPLE.

I began my creative career in Wellington 25+ years ago, beginning in advertising, eventually moving into more brand and comms-driven agencies. In 1991, I pursued self-employment as a freelance designer, contracting back to a variety of agencies to work on a wide range of brand, marketing, and advertising projects. Experience? Tick.
Over the years, the creative industry, like others, has undergone many changes – particularly with the evolution of technology, marketing-driven analytics, and now the introduction of AI. It’s easy to be dazzled with what can be done today. Still, I just see tech as a few more tools for the creative toolkit. The best kind of brands – the ones that really connect – are still driven by the human connection with great ideas built on great stories.

Saying I like print is a bit of an understatement. Having started my sales career in the print industry over 20 years ago, I relish the challenge of creating unique solutions for clients, even while we live in this digital world.
Of course that’s just part of the picture. In this deadline driven industry, I’m a details and time management person, working closely with clients to ensure deadlines are met. In between I’m contributing ideas across whatever projects we currently have on the boil. It can be a truly rewarding, if not a challenging process, taking an initial brief and turning it into the kind of solution that speaks volumes for our clients.
So, what’s our story?
It’s a fairly uncomplicated one.
Loudhailer Design Ltd was founded from a firm belief that we could assist businesses in finding clarity in their brand communications. We’re proud to be a boutique agency that offers a more personalised approach, which really fits our way of working.
With a good volume of experience (and a few shots of caffeine), we’re always keen to shake things up and cut through the noise. We’re always listening to what’s popular, but we’re not really trend chasers. Instead, we’re aiming to provide unique, end-to-end creative solutions inspired by real-world experiences to spark our creativity.
We love the variety of projects we take on, the challenges they bring, and the client relationships we form (many of whom we still work with today). Having collaborated with over 250 unique clients, we know a one-size-fits-all creative approach simply doesn’t work. That’s why we focus on asking the right questions, understanding the industry, and building creative strategies that actually fit the business, not a template.
Above all, seeing our work create real value and making a meaningful impact for the clients we work with is what really matters.
“WE BELIEVE OUR ROLE – EVEN OUR RESPONSIBILITY – IS TO EXPLORE, CHALLENGE IDEAS AND OFFER AN HONEST, UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE WITH EVERY PROJECT.”
