How We Work

Experienced Apodi Account Directors work with our clients from the very beginning ensuring they receive a bespoke service dedicated to enhancing their business and delivering a return on investment.

We work in close collaboration to understand unique brand challenges and identify the most effective access solution. Some clients have already decided on the solution they wish to be implemented and together, we will plan and activate accordingly. For those that haven’t, Apodi’s unique proven 6-stage process acts as a guide to identify the most effective solution to meet your objectives.

A dedicated Apodi Account Director works with our clients to produce a simple and effective plan detailing the key actions necessary to deliver the solution with key performance indicators.

A dedicated Apodi Project Director drives the implementation and delivery of the plan.

All projects are monitored and reviewed at regular intervals involving the Apodi account director, the project director and other members of the Apodi senior leadership team in partnership with our Clients.
