Philippa has been an excellent person to work with. My task was to have an animation done about a research project, and Philippa was super in... assisting me with writing a storyboard and finding an animator within our limited budget. Our subject was rather complex, but Philippa quickly understood what we were trying to communicate, and has been extremely helpful at every stage of the project.

The Facebook training day was worth every cent and Philippa tailored her training for our individual businesses so with the critiquing of everyone’s... FB activity we certainly learnt a lot of do’s and don’ts and what FB look for to increase the success of our posts. Philippa actively works in marketing and has many clients who she manages their social media accounts for so the information was current and extremely practical. I thoroughly enjoyed it and thought it an extremely valuable day.read more

I had the pleasure of interning at Cre8ive Marketing during my break between semesters at my university in the United States this July-August 2020!... My internship was fully remote, and even with the drastic time difference between New Zealand and the U.S., Philippa and the team made it easy for me to collaborate and contribute on important projects going on at the company. I learned so much from Philippa during the past 6 weeks, including some amazing new skills involving Google Analytics, AdWords, SEO, and Google My Business! I truly see the value in the services that Cre8ive offers for their clients, as they are dedicated to tailoring their work specifically for every project that they do!Thank you Philippa and the entire Cre8ive Marketing team for making this experience amazing!read more

In my previous role as Director, Digital Marketing and Customer Experience at biotech company Pacific Edge, I engaged Philippa and her team to... initially audit our Google Adwords account. During this project, it become clear that Philippa’s extensive Google Ads knowledge and proactive working style would make her a valuable partner. She was able to grasp the complexity of operating in global markets and expertly implemented relevant Google Ads campaigns, set up conversion tracking and provided excellent in-depth monthly reporting. This allowed me to clearly demonstrate the ROI of our marketing spend.Our working relationship grew as I engaged the Cre8ive team on other digital marketing projects including an SEO audit, brochure design, presentation slides, social media graphics, signage, project managing video animations (including graphics and storyboard), blog creation and more. The team at Cre8ive always exceeded my expectations.read more

The Facebook Training by Philippa at Crea8ive was fantastic. Philippa was great at explaining how Facebook functions and how we use these functions... in a manner that was easily understood. It was so interactive and I love how she actually used our own businesses to show examples in such a constructive way which means the take home actions is not just relatable but completely actionable. Thanks for the fun training which went way too fast!read more
