Michele Peppler, Tuesday 21st February 2012;
“If anyone is looking for someone to help launch their business in the digital space I’ve just spent time with Philip Bateman of Bravo Charlie who was great and held my hand step by step through setting up my website and social media infrastructure.
He really helped me to understand how these systems work together to profile customers and generate potential business, instilling in me the confidence to create and manage the entire system going forwards, and even coached me how to make awesome video.. ”
Mark Reid, Enterprise Connect Business Adviser, NORTH link, October 10, 2011;
“Philip’s expertise, experience and commercial success on behalf of his clients justifies his overt enthusiasm for what Bravo Charlie can do. He is a knowledgeable and engaging professional who I happily recommend to anyone toying with the idea of video content to support their social media marketing mix.”
Rebekah Hayden, Founder of Yoga Camp, March 23, 2011
“Philip Bateman recently produced a promotional video for our Yoga Camp event. We use it on our facebook page as well as the homepage for our website. I believe it contributed greatly to the success of our last camp – our numbers doubled!
Feedback from people has been consistently positive and it gives visitors to our website an instant idea of the kind of event we are running. Personally I feel the video is of a high professional standard with music and images that accurately capture the flavour of Yoga Camp; I would not hesitate to recommend Philip and the services of Bravo Charlie.”
Deva Nandan, 5 Rhythms instructor, May 06, 2011, Top qualities: Great Results, Personable, Expert
“Philip made a video of my recent dance workshop. I am quite impressed at how professional, considered, creative and non-intrusive he was while we were doing such deep personal work. I found Philip had lots of ideas and still was receptive to mine. He gave more than I asked and I am grateful for his work.” - http://www.5rhythmswithdeva.com
Kathryn Bottrell, hired Philip as a Business Consultant in September 2010, Top qualities: Expert, High Integrity, Creative
“Philip provided incredibly grounding support for my visions and planning. His reflections and guidance were very real and supported by online reference and examples of client implementations, helping to highlight the areas of my knowledge to build on, and how that fit with my vision. From the breadth of his expertise and understanding he was able to help me become very much clearer on the next steps I needed to take.
Thank you very much Philip. I look forward to working with you again in the future!”
Melissa Carstens, hired Philip as a Business Consultant in April, 2010- Top qualities: Personable, High Integrity, Creative
“I found Philip very knowledgable, informative, creative and very energetic. I would recommend Philip’s services to those seeking tailored service delivered with in a unique manner.”
David Naylor, hired Philip as Digital producer more than once in March 2010, Top qualities: Great Results, Expert, Creative
“Philip is a dedicated and creative operator. He worked with me hands on from start to finish to create a promotional video of highlights of a recent comedy show I produced. He is constantly thinking ahead to ensure all opportunities are seized. As a video editor he works fast, with a sharp eye for detail and timing that makes the final product look schmick! And did I mention he is very patient in adapting to my needs. Phil brought an abundance of up-to-date web and digital production knowledge saving me many headaches and research time – invaluable as a sole operator. I also appreciate his ability to contextualise his work within my broader business strategy, and to consider all issues such as copyright.
If you’re seeking a jump-start on your competitors in terms of video/YouTube promotion with a quick turn around, then talk to Philip.”
Karen Dempster, Director & Lead Consultant, KD&A Creating Change worked directly with Philip at Bravo Charlie in September, 2009
“Philip has been a co-mentor within Swinburne University offering guidance to entrepreneurs and business students in terms of ideas-generation, structure, funding options and marketing – in fact all aspects of leveraging success in multiple industries through unique selling points, ethical practices and cutting edge thinking. Philip has the ability to offer suggestions that are clear and insightful, yet deliver these insights in a manner which is respectful of the individual’s own goals and personal identity. Interacting with him over other issues (e.g. the Aust. Grad School of Entrepreneurship Alumni Association) has also been likewise a rewarding and easy communication process, and I feel he has not only the ability but the drive to succeed at driving multiple projects.”
Jules Brooke, Founding Partner, Handle Your Own PR was a consultant or contractor to Philip at Bravo Charlie in September, 2009
“Philip is a breath of fresh air! He was one of the first people we met who truly understood the power of PR and he wanted to try it himself. He is anything but lethargic! Within a day of purchasing our media contact lists he had refined his press release and sent it out to the media – all with great results. Philip is a doer and is tenacious – two qualities that will stand him in good stead as he builds his business. I would recommend him to anyone who wants someone to really achieve what they have set out to do…and he’s not bad at PR either!”
Daniel Granot, hired Philip as a Business Consultant more than once in 2009, in September, 2009, Top qualities: Great Results, Personable, Expert
“Thanks for your insights on marketing and social media in relation to Marketbeagle.com. Despite thinking that I’d heard it all, you surprised me with many in depth insights and a lot of food for thought. I’ll be utilising your services again shortly!”
Sean Dostal, hired Philip as a Business Consultant in September 2009, Top qualities: Great Results, Personable, Creative
“Philip has an infectious energy about him and it shows in his results. He has helped me through his canny ability to distill the essence of a business model and make constructive recommendations on future growth paths. He is also extremely well connected, particularly in the environmental business sector and has put me in touch with some very influential people. It’s exciting to work with him and I recommend him highly.”
John Salib, Creative Director, 8Global Pty Ltd worked with Philip at 8Global in February 2010
“Philip is a strategic, creative, professional and friendly person to work with. I worked on many client projects with Phillip and every time he would have new ideas that always excelled the project further then what the client expected. It was a pleasure working with Phillip and I would recommend him to any business. He always brought to the table a creative way of lifting business’s bottom line through sales and marketing.”
John Lonergan, Lecturer, Swinburne University, taught Philip at Swinburne University of Technology in September 2009
“I worked with Philip during his Masters program at Swinburne. In particular, I lead a “Business Growth” simulation, during which Philip took on the demanding role of CEO.
What impressed me most about Philip was the way he combined the capacity to make decisions and assume authority with the willingness to listen and engage his people.
In essence, he modeled the CEO role at its best. It is a simulation I facilitate regularly, and I rarely see someone embrace and excel in the CEO role as effectively and/or readily.
Clearly, Philip has what it takes to manage and to lead.”
John Batros, Lecturer in HRM & Organisation Studies, Swinburne University, taught Philip at Swinburne University of Technology in December, 2008
“Philip is a man full of passionate ideas. He is able to see a wide perspective and to quickly decide how to respond to situations as they emerge. He solves problems quickly and effectively.
Creative and thoughtful, Phil is very engaging and communicative.”
