Our clients often ask us to help them establish new creative partnerships. We frequently recommend agencies to clients that we feel best fit their brief, opening up the lines of communication and resulting in commissions. We do not charge agencies for this service.
If your work is innovative and could have exciting implications for retail and leisure then we want to champion it to the world’s leading brands. This is at no expense to you and with no strings attached.
You might be a new start-up, a small studio or an established global agency. As an independent company, GDR’s interest lies in creative disruptions that improve the shopper experience and elevate brand engagement.
OUR RECOMMENDATIONS CAN BECOME COMMISSIONS
BEST IN MARKET, FULLY CREDITED
GDR’s presentations to clients and at industry events use agency work to illustrate dynamic trends taking place in retail and hospitality. Fully credited with your agency details, these examples are regarded as best practice and truly innovative in their category.
AGENCY WORK IS SHOWCASED IN PRINT AND ONLINE
GDR’s Global Innovation Report is a quarterly hardback compilation of the best recent agency work. Themed around three overarching trends in retail, this content is also accessible to clients on our digital platform.
WE PUT YOU IN FRONT OF MAJOR BRANDS
GDR’s clients regularly take part in GDR’s workshops and field expeditions in cities around the world. Facilitated by our senior consultants, we often involve agencies to advise on key business issues in front of the world’s leading brands.
"GDR GIVES US A PLATFORM"
“We always enjoy working with GDR, and the coverage, workshops and referrals they provide to their long list of retained clients is useful for us. When you’re doing something innovative, you want people to find out about it, and GDR gives us a platform for that.” – Alex Sbardella, Product Strategy Director, Red Ant
“GDR has put us in front of major brands, allowing us to showcase our projects and network with key decision-makers. The fact that this is at no expense to us but based solely on the strength of our work is more than a little pleasing.”
Rupert Pick, co-founder and director of Hot Pickle
