Hire the Best Brand Licensing Specialists in London, UK

Hi, my name's Phil. Welcome to my profile. The best names do more than inform; they create the perfect first impression, entice you to discover more, tell a story, and capture a vision. They become the cornerstone of your identity. Finding that knockout name can be one of the most important and challenging stages in the life of a business. Does it have to say everything? Can it say nothing? And just when you think you’ve cracked it, there is the frustration of discovering the domain has already been taken! Drawing on my experience as a former advertising creative, I know how to get to the heart of your business story and create original naming strategies. This helps me craft names that are unique to you, memorable for your customers, and domain frustration-free! Feel free to get in touch, and let's get started on your knockout name! WHAT I DELIVER: Knowledge before naming - I will research your category and competition. Name checks - All names will be .com available (Trademark checked if required.) Names with meaning - Each name will be presented with its thinking. Names from the brain - All names will be 100% original, not AI-generated. Extra names - Revision options included. SEO-friendly names: I always try to use simple, category-relevant words. You name it! - Naming, consultancy, social media handles, taglines, headlines. HOW I WORK: 1. You send me a brief description of your requirements. 2. I will then send you a contract proposal outlining a price, timings and any follow-up questions. 3. You can agree to the proposal or request amendments (I’m super flexible). 4. We then begin!

I help beauty and wellness brands grow through a mix of strategy, execution and thoughtful brand support. With a background in luxury retail, brand management and e-commerce, I understand both the creative and commercial side of a brand. I’ve worked across retail partnerships, PR, digital marketing and customer experience, always focusing on what actually drives growth and builds long-term relationships.

Trained through Grant Cardone University, with 15+ years of retail and sales experience giving me a strong foundation in reading clients, handling objections, and closing with confidence I currently work closely with a beauty brand, leading retail partnerships, PR initiatives and digital growth, so I understand the pace and attention to detail needed in this space. I’m organised, proactive and easy to work with. I don’t wait to be told what to do, I look ahead, anticipate needs and keep things moving smoothly. If you’re looking for someone who can support your brand both strategically and operationally, I’d love to hear more about what you’re building.

Research → Strategy → Growth Most businesses think they need more ads. In reality, ads only work if the brand itself is clear, trusted, and built to convert. That’s where I step in. Often the problem isn’t “too little advertising,” but misaligned channels and targeting, a story that doesn’t fit the audience, and campaigns that try to sell on the first touch instead of guiding people through a funnel. I design journeys that earn attention first, build trust second, and convert at the right moment—choosing channels and messages based on research and measurable behavior, not guesswork. I’m Chris, a Brand Strategist & Marketing Lead. I help companies grow by fixing what really holds them back: outdated branding, broken trust, or confusing digital experiences. My work goes beyond design or campaigns—I connect brand, user experience, and growth systems into one ecosystem that actually delivers results. How I work I always start with a deep audit. Numbers, customer journeys, competitor analysis, psychology. I look for the real blockers: why people don’t trust, why they abandon carts, why campaigns don’t convert. Then I build a clear brand strategy—positioning, messaging, identity—and translate it into websites, content, and campaigns that engage the right audience. What makes my process different - Diagnosis first, tactics second. I won’t sell you ads if your brand foundation is broken. - Data into story. I turn analytics into clear narratives everyone understands (e.g., from “luxury but cold” to “approachable and trusted”). - Strategy + execution. I don’t stop at slides; I design systems, automate processes, and launch campaigns. - Before → After clarity. Every project creates a visible shift: from noise to trust, from chaos to clarity, from outdated to modern. Selected work - Pegaz Recruitment – from “cold luxury” boutique to a warm, two-sided brand with its own client portal. - Rokiit – a recruitment platform where culture comes before job listings, creating emotional connections. - Prezent Życia – from promo-heavy chaos to a modern, trustworthy marketplace aligned with real buyers. - Hello Sunshine Shakes – a UK lifestyle brand built from zero into a compliant, female-focused wellness ecosystem with automated influencer marketing and 26k+ organic followers. The result My clients don’t just get a prettier logo or new website—they get brands that earn trust, win attention, and convert. *************************************************** What I can do for you in practice Whether you’re a startup creating your first brand, a company in need of rebranding, a large corporation refining its identity, or an individual building a personal brand — I handle the full process end-to-end: - Research & Strategy: Market analysis, customer psychology, competitor benchmarking, personas, positioning — plus brand & channel audits (brand, website/UX, social, ads, email). - Branding: logos, visual identity systems, brand books (colors, fonts, tone of voice, usage rules). - Copywriting & Storytelling: messaging, narrative building, website copy, campaign content. - Personal Branding: positioning you as a trusted expert through visuals, voice, and social presence. - Employer Branding: making your company attractive to top talent with authentic culture storytelling. - Web & UX: design and development of websites, landing pages, and digital experiences. - Social Media: feed design, content calendars, campaign execution (Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook). - Email & Funnels: automated sequences, lead magnets, nurturing campaigns that convert. - Implementation: I don’t just plan—I build, launch, and optimize so you get results, not just documents. In short: I bring strategy, design, and marketing together so you don’t need a dozen different freelancers. You get one partner who sees the big picture and knows how to execute every piece of it. Let’s talk If you’re ready to stop guessing and start scaling with a brand that actually works, let’s connect.

A well-crafted narrative has the power to evoke curiosity, spark conversations, and forge a genuine connection between brands and consumers. It allows us to tap into the human experience, to empathize with our audience, and to create meaningful experiences that leave a lasting impression.

In today's competitive landscape, where consumers are bombarded with a barrage of messages, standing out from the crowd is essential.

By weaving together elements such as compelling characters, intriguing plotlines, and relatable emotions, we can create experiences that not only capture attention but also inspire action. Creative narratives enable us to humanize brands. They allow us to tell the stories behind the products, to showcase the values and vision that drive organizations. By revealing the human side of brands, we can build trust, foster loyalty, and forge meaningful connections with our customers. As a Creative Director, my approach to crafting creative narratives is rooted in collaboration and innovation. I believe in assembling diverse teams of talented individuals who bring their unique perspectives and expertise to the table. By embracing different voices and ideas, we can create narratives that are inclusive, relevant, and reflective of the world we live in. I am passionate about creating experiences that transcend the boundaries of conventional marketing. By crafting compelling stories, we have the opportunity to touch lives, spark conversations, and shape the world around us. If you are looking for a highly skilled Creative Director and Brand Strategist who can bring your brand's story to life, look no further.
