The Brand Producer Listening Session . . .

A focused session designed to surface the real potential in your brand

Let's be clear from the start.
You've built a successful business.
You've put in the hard work.
Your clients trust you and love what you do.

This session is not designed to find fault.

It’s about taking the time to properly understand:

  • What you’ve built
  • What’s already working
  • Where the real strength lies
  • Where that strength could be shaped into something commercially irresistible

The Brand Producer Listening Session is built for businesses that already have traction, strong delivery, real clients, and commercial substance.

Typically, this includes organisations with . . .

A clear foothold in their market
Consistent revenue and healthy margins
An experienced leadership team

This is the stage where brand stops being cosmetic and starts supporting growth.

Designed For Established Businesses Ready for Their Next Phase

It's not about size, it's about stage

This session isn’t limited by headcount or turnover.

It’s also a strong fit for smaller businesses who:

  • Have established credibility

  • Are delivering good work consistently

  • Feel growth has slowed or become harder

  • Want to move forward with more clarity and intention

What matters most is that you’ve moved beyond experimentation and into intentional growth.

Probably not a fit if . . .

This session is unlikely to be right if:

  • You’re still figuring out what you offer

  • You’re looking for quick marketing tactics

  • You want a one-size-fits-all framework

  • You’re not ready to reflect honestly on the business

This is considered, collaborative work.

The Common Thread

Every business this session works well for has one thing in common:

You’ve already built something valuable and you want to shape it with more clarity and intention.

What this session is (and isn’t)

This is . . .

A listening-first working session

A space to explore your business honestly and intelligently

A chance to step back from day-to-day noise

A way to identify where your brand already connects and where it could connect more strongly

A critique

A one size fits all

A rebrand pitch

A list of “things you’re doing wrong”

Yet another "to do" list

This is not . . .

What you leave with . . .

I'm Richard Ulph - The Brand Producer

Still learning every day.

20+ Years In Branding

As a child, I was often to be found with a set of colouring in pens and a pad, redrawing the logos of brands that I found interesting.


Today I'm absolutely fascinated by the psychology and neuroscience behind brand strategy.


So why the Brand Producer, you may ask?


Over the last few years, I've been learning to write, play, perform, record and produce my own music. I love the whole process but one thing I've found difficult is making my finished songs sound like the ones I hear on streaming platforms.

That's because they've been mixed and mastered by professional producers in studios. It occurred to me that what I do as a brand strategist is very similar to what a producer in a studio does.


My role is to listen to you, see and understand your talent, your material, your vision and your audience - essentially all the things in your business that go together to make your brand.


Then I help you shape your brand into something commercially irresistible.

TESTIMONIALS

Rennie Hamilton

Wendy Harris

Some people just get you and your business straight away - Richard is one of them.


From our very first session, he helped me step back and see the bigger picture, giving me clarity on Konpasu’s positioning, messaging, and strategy, plus practical steps I could action immediately.

It felt like a conversation where Richard was keen to get to know as much as possible about our approach.


He came up with tailored advice, much of which has already been successfully implemented into our brand and marketing strategy.
