Don't take our word for it
Arthur Charlaftis
Founder & CEO, Toddle
“Poppins immersed themselves into our vision from the very beginning. I remember when they first presented our brand concept–myself and the other shareholders just thought WOW, this is perfect. They applied the concept across all of our product and brand touch-points. Our customers are consistently impressed, so we couldn't be happier.”
Matteo Atti
Global Chief Marketing Officer, Vistajet
“Not many agencies can create messages to capture a billionaire’s attention. Even fewer can create something that they might be eager to share with their peers. Leading a VistaJet project with a partner whose execution and delivery is as singularly impressive as Poppins is a rare pleasure, and the perfect start for a winning campaign.”
Anna Gudmundson
CEO, Sensate
“True experts of their craft, the Poppins team bring tremendous dedication, exceptional creativity and are true partners when working to transform our brand, website and marketing. Having worked with many agencies, I particularly value the combination of excellent talent and expertise with a truly good culture and good working relationship.”
Graham Corfield
Managing Director, JustEat
"We are constantly looking for new and innovative ways to use technology to offer more choice, ease or simply make the brand more enjoyable. The team’s one-wand-wave-ordering is very exciting technology. It takes that feel-good moment of being able to order your favourite meal at the touch of a button to the next level."
Ishani Bechoo
Global Social Media Director, Arup
"Throughout our long term partnership, the team consolidated and streamlined our entire, global social media footprint. We reduced our accounts and increased how efficient we were, enabling us to be more focused in our communications."
Samara Mehzer
