Good work starts with a good chat.
PKO stands for Pop the Kettle On.
Because before we talk logos, websites, campaigns or colours, there’s usually something more important to figure out.
What are you trying to do?
What’s getting in the way?
And what do you actually need?
So we start there.
No big pitch. No agency theatre. Just a proper chat about your business and where you want to take it.
Less agency. More creative partner.
Sometimes you don’t need a big agency.
You need someone who can look at the bigger picture, ask the right questions and turn a jumble of ideas into something clear.
That’s PKO.
We work with founders, startups and growing businesses to find the idea, sharpen the brand and create work that actually makes sense for where you’re going.
From a new identity to a website, campaign or complete creative rethink, the output might change.
The thinking comes first.
Meet John.
PKO is the independent creative studio of John Galliers, a designer and creative with more than 20 years’ experience building brands, campaigns, digital experiences and everything in between.
But experience isn’t really the interesting bit.
John likes getting underneath a business.
Finding out what makes it different. Spotting the thing everyone else has overlooked. Simplifying what’s become complicated.
Then turning all of that into something people actually notice.
No layers of account management. No passing the work down the line.
The person you chat with is the person doing the work.
Big thinking. Small studio.
Keeping PKO small is deliberate.
It means fewer layers, quicker decisions and a much closer relationship between your business and the creative work.
You bring the knowledge of your business.
We bring the questions, ideas and creative thinking.
Then we figure it out together.
Fancy a chat?
You don’t need a polished brief.
You don’t even need to know exactly what you need.
That’s kind of the point.
Pop the kettle on. Let’s chat.
