Client outcomes

The verdict from the people paying the invoice.

Channel directors, category leads, heads of trade channels, heads of retail, general managers of sales and marketing leads share their thoughts on the value and expertise I brought to their B2B incentive channel and/or loyalty programs and activities.

Head of Retail Development, Tabcorp
August 2026

Mark played a critical role in the design and delivery of Tabcorp’s national trade loyalty program. He led our vendor selection process end‑to‑end — requirements, RFP, scoring and final recommendation — and then acted as our B2B Loyalty SME throughout development, pilot and launch.

His independence, clarity and ability to keep both Tabcorp and the technology vendor aligned to scope were invaluable. The program launched successfully across 3,500 venues, and Mark’s expertise ensured the vendor treated Tabcorp as a true priority partner. His contribution was instrumental to the program’s launch in July 2026.

Every other ‘expert’ or company arrived with a platform to sell. Mark arrived with questions, then told us to fix our partner data before we spent a cent on software or rewards. Five years on and the program was designed and built in such a way that it is relevant and used to counter any reactive channel pain points and opportunities.

Mark was the expert we chose to team up with for our B2B partner initiatives. His strategic thinking and ability to really listen to business problems, find solutions and go the extra mile ensures his clients are more than satisfied. His wealth of experience, solid commercial acumen and passion for B2B loyalty and growth speak for themselves.

He understands the last three feet. Our reps in store finally had a reason to recommend us, and category share followed within two quarters.

Mark was instrumental in the proposal, launch and implementation of an extremely successful rewards programme whilst I was at FUJIFILM. He continuously pushed, followed up and came up with strategic ways to find a solution. The programme led to significant growth in market share and mindshare amongst 500+ key retail staff across our national store and online sales channels.

Mark redesigned our dealer incentive so it paid for behaviour instead of volume we would have won anyway. Sell-through is up 10% and the programme costs us less than the one it replaced.
