What our clients say
“James and the team at Sprint are brilliant, and, importantly, easy to work with. They sharpened our marketing approach, pushed us into a more proactive way of working, and helped automate workflows so we operate more efficiently. We felt genuinely supported at a critical point in our growth and would happily recommend them.”
Oliver Bradley, Managing Director, Words+Pixels
Amanda Meyrick, CEO at Clarion Communications
Stuart Skinner, Group Managing Director at The PHA Group
“Working with Sprint Partners on pitch optimisation brought a fresh, commercial perspective that sharpened our story and helped us make a far bigger impact in the room. Inspiring colleagues to perform better.”
Sam Clough, Executive Director at Cavendish
“Working with Sprint Partners has been a genuinely valuable experience. From day one, they felt less like external consultants and more like an extension of our own team — fully invested in our success and deeply committed to helping us achieve our growth ambitions.”
Nick Rogers, Founder of The Cast
“I worked with James to help with business planning for next phase of growth. He was incredibly helpful in giving an objective analysis of how we were doing and the areas we could optimise across all aspects of the business. Unlike some consultants, James is very hands on and has the rare qualities of being strategic, commercial and creative.”
Chris Allen, ex-Managing Director at Pitch Marketing Group
Simon Maule, CEO at Luther Pendragon
“I brought James in as a NED at the start of 2025. In that time BF Media has grown more than in any comparable period before. He’s commercially sharp, creatively useful, and brings a perspective that comes from running large agencies at scale. That outside view is harder to find than most people admit.”
Safi Zisman, Director at BF Media
“They help me lift my head above the day-to-day, get clear on where we’re taking the business, and crucially, hold me and the team accountable to getting there. The mix of the business of comms insight, sharp strategic advice, practical tips and genuine support is rare.”
Sarah Street, Founder of Street & Co.
Victoria Marconetto-Tyson, Founder of The Celebrity Sauce Co.
“James brought a clear, outside-in perspective and thoughtful strategic challenge that helped sharpen our thinking. A genuinely valuable collaborator. Considered, insightful and easy to work with.”
Sophie Simpson, CEO at Ruder Finn Atteline
