About

Your shortcut to professional brand management — without the overheads.

What is my brand buddy?

After a long career working in brand marketing, I saw a common challenge facing many businesses: they know the importance of building a strong, consistent brand, but often don’t have the time, budget, or in-house expertise to make it happen. Too often, marketing tasks get pushed aside, new product launches fall behind schedule, campaigns lose momentum, or opportunities for growth are missed.

That’s why I created my brand buddy — to give businesses flexible access to experienced brand management without the overheads of hiring full-time staff. I wanted to create a service that’s practical, cost-effective, and tailored — stepping in as a virtual marketing manager to handle the day-to-day brand tasks, keep everything on track, and provide guidance when it’s needed most.

At its core, my brand buddy exists to make marketing easier for businesses — giving them peace of mind that their brand is being looked after, while they stay focused on other priorities.

Hi, I'm George — the “buddy” behind My Brand Buddy.

I've spent 25+ years in marketing, building brands and launching products for established businesses including Sara Lee Household & Body Care, Fonterra, Bulla Dairy Foods and ITW Construction Asia Pacific.

Throughout my career, I've worked across brand strategy, product innovation and marketing campaigns. I've partnered with agencies, managed launches and learned what genuinely moves a brand forward — and what's just noise.

I started My Brand Buddy after seeing a common challenge: ambitious businesses with great products and big ideas, but without the marketing resources or experience to bring everything together. A full-time marketing hire isn't always practical, and that's where I can help.

Today, I bring big-brand thinking to businesses of all sizes, providing flexible, hands-on marketing support without the corporate overhead or unnecessary jargon.

I enjoy getting to know a business, asking the right questions and turning ideas into action. Whether it's building a brand, managing a campaign or getting important marketing projects over the line, I'm here to help.

So — got a brand that needs a buddy? Let's talk.
