About Us
We live branding, breath marketing and love technology!
Who Am I?
My name is Andrea Rowland. Born in Yorkshire, England, I am a passionate entrepreneur with over 20 years of professional experience in marketing, branding and communications. I am a creative person with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Graphic Design. My experience and my own entrepreneurial journey has led me working with many high-level brands and small businesses in the UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. I have worked in a range of industries including West End Theatre, paint and oil brands, telecommunications, healthcare, breweries, not-for-profits and charities – you name it – I have probably marketed it!
Working in different countries and travelling in over 27 countries has given me an understanding and insight into how culture plays a big part in marketing and I want to share this international experience with you. I love to think out-of-the-box and brainstorm with my clients. I love new challenges and even started my own craft brewery in Australia. Yes, I love craft beer too!
I have always had a passion for working with niche business and dedicated entrepreneurs. The thing I love most is getting to know them and building brands around who they are and what they do. I see you and see your potential.
I have a talent to communicate your story and brand with your potential customers. I know what gives your marketing the most power – it is you, your story and your why – that is your brand, your essence, your DNA. And by deep-diving into your brand essence your communication becomes authentic. Being authentic gives you a path forward with confidence and actually simplifies your ability to market your business.
The Personal Side of Me!
I love animals. I volunteer at a local cat adoption centre AVA – Animals for Action. We work to find cats their ‘furever’ home.
I love to cook. My favourite food is Indian. But I also love Italian, Thai and good old-fashioned English foods like Yorkshire Puddings and Sticky Toffee Pudding, YUM. My favourite celebrity chef is Jamie Oliver.
I love to travel. I like to explore new places, new cultures and new cuisine. I especially like to be near the ocean and look for wild animals such as dolphins and whales. I once bought an old pick up truck in Oregon, Washington, USA and drove to Alaska and across the US and Canada in it. By myself.
I love craft beer. On my travels, I have visited hundreds of breweries – tasting their beers and talking to the brewers. I have visited many a beer festival too.
I love movies. My favourite movie of all time is Singin’ In The Rain – great dancing, great love story and it is the story of the talking picture. I have recently started volunteering at the Durham Region International Film Festival helping them with their marketing plan.
And I love my family – husband, 2 children, 2 dogs, 4 cats, 1 axolotl and 3 fish tanks!
I am known as “All-In-Andrea”, as I believe in order to make the most out of things you need to be ALL IN!
And that goes for your brand and marketing too. Life is to short for bad beer and bad branding!
