My name is Matthew Kilgour and I lead Like If You Agree, a strategic and creative consultancy that helps B2B brands outperform their competition. 

I work with a network of creative and strategic people to deliver work for clients of all shaped and sizes.  Engagements could be as short as a few days of pitch support, or many months of transformative work. 

I'm like a labradoodle. Only instead of being part gun dog and part snooty poodle, I'm 50% creative director and 50% strategy director. I like my job. I also like running in fields and eating things I find on the floor, like an actual labradoodle. What it means is that I spend most of my day translating client needs/wants/issues into creative solutions via strategic thinking.

 

I once rode my bike from London to Vietnam.  My advice would be to go to all the places that people tell you not to because the people you find there are good and kind.
 

The world is really big and very complicated and lots of people want you to think its small and simple. Ignore them. 

I think the world is weird and getting weirder. I think strategy needs to rise to meet the weirdness and I think creative needs to roll around in it. Weird is good. Weird is what sets us apart from boring.
