Name 1 fun fact about you, your agency, or market, that people might find interesting?
Apart from the bunny as a logo? All our people are based in our 114 year old villa converted into an office in Takapuna Beach
What were your two greatest accomplishments of 2024/2025?
Firstly surviving the past 18 months of some of the most difficult economic market conditions in NZ since the GFC. Launching our sister company (harper.plus) specialising in enabling kiwi businesses through automation
Name the best things about being an Indie! (Independent Agency)
You can choose which clients to work with.
What do you wish clients could better understand to get the most out of their agency partner?
We exist to help them win.
What does AMIN’s Mantra, “You’ve Got Allies”, mean to you in your own words?
Looking forward to learning from others about what makes their agencies great and hopefully working alongside them.
What inspires you most as we move into 2025?
Given we are in August, I’m going to look into 2026 and hoping to see the NZ economy rebound and we are in a great position to capitalise.
Would you rather be transported 500 years into the future or 500 years into the past, and why?
I guess that depends on where you land! 500 years ago, there wasn’t a whole heap going on in NZ!
