Financial Return - Philip Bateman and Bravo Charlie

Our best work is done with leaders that consider themselves proactive change makers, whose companies are at a tipping point, have strong offerings, and are ready to launch into the next stage of their greatness.

RECENT PROJECTS

We worked closely with the Argyle Chairman and Executive Team to successfully present the fund to international institutional investors. This included investor relations strategy development, a brand, website and collateral uplift, visiting investees and clients, filming with their CEOS in Griffith (NSW), Melbourne (Victoria) and Adelaide (South Australia).
  • Delivery
  • Fund IM and Investor Engagement System®, detailing how Argyle strategically invests in water rights, farmland and supply chain infrastructure to deliver non-correlated, real-asset backed, risk-adjusted returns.
  • Audience
  • Institutional & SWFs
  • Region
  • Europe, UAE and Australia

To get our investors to see what we do, to be able to educate them about it, the opportunities, the return profile, and why it’s sustainable, to tell our story and have people be able to relate it to if they’ve only ever lived in a capital city, to understand the sophistication of these farmers we deal with and the markets that they’re engaged with.  That’s why we’re going on this journey.  Overall it’s been fantastic (Philip).  We love your energy and the professionalism – and certainly you’ve been very good to deal with as far as everything being planned out and meticulous in terms of the preparation.  It’s been a delight.  Thank you.

– Kim Morrison, Chairman and Chief Investment Officer
Asked to create a great looking, compelling, consistent and semi-automated process for engaging Kilara’s existing and potential investors, we harnessed their position as leaders in Impact Measurement and the family office space to deliver remarkable results during their capital raise.
  • Delivery
  • Investor Engagement System™ – Tone of Voice guide, branding tweaks, video production, editing and platform design, social media content and calendar, website integration, email management optimisation, conference filming, campaign launch, follow up and ongoing support.
  • Audience
  • High net worth, sophisticated investors and family offices
  • Region
  • Predominantly Asia-Pacific

RECENT PROJECTS

Philip and his team have built our Investor Engagement System based on a deep review of our strategy and consulting with our executive, and the results have been transformative. In the six weeks leading up to closing our $34M Growth Fund, we had over 4,300 individuals collectively spend 39 hours watching our new video content, and the feedback I’ve got from people in person and online has been very enthusiastic.

If you’re managing a fund or considering launching a new one, and wanting to know the best way to engage your stakeholders and potential investors, Philip should be your first port of call!

RECENT PROJECTS

Commissioned by Green Industries South Australia to build the online home of the Global Centre of Excellence in Circular Economy, Circular360 was announced by South Australia’s Premier and the Minister for the Environment at COP26 in Glasgow and officially opened in Adelaide, South Australia in January 2022.
  • Delivery
  • Initial concept through to comprehensive brand deployment; website, video and prospectus, with ongoing strategic marketing guidance for the board.
  • Audience
  • State and Federal agencies, country and commercial leaders
  • Region
  • Predominantly Asia-Pacific

I first came across Philip compellingly presenting how video communication can be used to build and share powerful narratives at a major international water management event in 2020 – subsequently, I engaged him to build the logo, website, prospectus, and video communication for Circular360.

I was most impressed with his grasp of the finer nuances of story telling, visual communication, brand creation and the various technology platforms, and backed by his professional team, the output was of the highest quality.

  • Delivery
  • Business plan, video platform with 80+ pieces of content, prospectus and pitch presentation
  • Audience

RECENT PROJECTS

What surprised me was the quality of the team, the professionalism, the amount of hard work, and the willingness to invest in Stronger Brains. It was more than just a project, it was understanding the business and caring about the outcomes. There are not many companies we work with that really take on board our cause and believe in us, and go way above and beyond the call of duty. That was a very pleasant surprise, and the feedback on the final product has been excellent.
