“An explosive creative energy, an enthusiastic presentation style, deep knowledge of current technology trends, an embracing and inspiring leadership style; combine all of the above and a first rough impression of Partick emerges, or shall we call it the tip of the iceberg? Patrick is a very self confident, very talented creative on a good path. We were all pretty lucky to get to work with him. I hope we’ll get to join forces again in the future.”

“Beyond core creative strengths of style, openness and intelligence…my favorite thing about working with Patrick Bennett is how solution minded he is. It’s rare that people own things the way Patrick does and with his range of skills and knowledge (from design, to tech, to copy—to his sense of what’s hot and what’s not) it makes him quite a force…and is why I jumped at every chance I had to work with him…and in fact did some of my best work.”

“Patrick’s work is all the things that were always most important to me as a client: on brand, innovative, compelling, executable as well as memorable. He can create AND deliver. He develops a deep understanding of the product and brand behind the project, and then finds ways to bring it to life for the target market. Delivering results is always top priority for him, and I would work with him again in a heartbeat.”
