This team operated in 13 different countries, spanning every continent in the world. He oversaw global expansion and acquisitions and development of multiple brands while CEO, all while still in school!

He became managing consultant under his own brand 'Internet Ready' which provided consultancy and strategy services around understanding young audiences to some of the worlds largest companies and governments. He was, and remains at the top of his field.

In addition to this Brandon is an advisory board member of ThinkNation - an established youth focused events company. He is also an executive producer for some of their content and works very closely with their team on a regular basis.

He is the co-host of the popular podcast, ‘The Z-X Spectrum’, which centres around the intergenerational view in technology, media and the digital space.

Consulting

Brandon offers a variety of consultancy services for companies big and small.

Whether you are just starting out or a well-established brand, he is fast becoming the go-to guy for anything youth related.

Under 20-year-olds are one of the most valuable generations to target. They have some of the largest buying power and will grow up to be the first generation to have had the internet for their entire life. They are the most connected generation ever with their reliance on the internet being key in reaching them. However; along with this, they have become the most brand aware generation and it is key that a different approach that the normal is taken to target them.

As a leader in the field of Generation Z marketing, Brandon offers the best insight on targeting the youth. Often marketers who make claims to know how to target this age range often look over key things because they try to use old strategies for millennials - these simply don’t work.

Because of his age and experience, Brandon has picked up a wealth of knowledge which he would love to share. What you gain from a consultation won’t just be valuable for in the moment, but will be something that you will use for years to come.

Brandon urges you to get in touch to see what would work for you.
