create brand clarity
"clarity precedes success"

The Who
The What
The Why
I'm Keith Wells. For over 30 years, I've said that I do brand strategy. Specialising in B2B clients, or those whose people are their brand.
But recently a client told me that what I really do is clarity.
"Everything we achieved came from that single point of clarity you made us understand. And it's the word we heard time and again when we were taking out references on you. It's incredibly valuable."
And he's right. All of my work is helping clients be clear about their priorities, their strategy, their values, and what they say.
Because clarity precedes success.
"Our people are our brand"
