Some partnerships are built to last.
Agency-client relationships can be… complicated.
Some last a few months, some survive a rebrand. Ours with Guards Polo Club is approaching 19 years.
We’ve grown with the Club as it has evolved, helping shape its brand, market its membership, and bring some of the most prestigious polo events in the UK and Middle East to life.
When you’ve worked with a client for that long, you’re not just ‘some agency.’
You’re part of the team.
The challenge:
Guards Polo Club hosts a packed calendar of events, welcomes members and guests throughout the season, and represents one of the most recognised names in the sport.
That means there’s always something happening.
Campaigns to launch, membership materials to produce, premium event collateral to create. And deadlines that don’t move.
Without an internal creative resource, the Club needed a partner who could deliver consistently, understand the brand instinctively and maintain the high standards expected across every touchpoint.
The brief:
We were enlisted to support the Club’s marketing, membership communications and event activity with creative that reflects the quality of the brand.
From printed collateral and promotional campaigns to exclusive events like the Cartier Dubai Polo Tournament, every piece needed to feel polished, considered and unmistakably Guards Polo Club.
Not just once. But every season.
The Pistachio approach:
Long-term partnerships happen because you keep listening, adapting and delivering.
Here’s how we’ve done exactly that.
- We know the brand inside out
After 19 years, we don’t need a lengthy briefing document every time a new project lands. We understand the Club, its members and the level of quality expected, which means we can get moving quickly while still bringing fresh thinking to every new season, campaign and event.
- Premium means every detail matters
Luxury brands are judged on the little things. The weight of a brochure or the finish on an invitation. And consistency must be maintained across every printed piece. Whether we’re producing membership literature, event collateral or supporting a tournament, every detail matters because every asset reflects the brand.
- We show up, year after year
One successful campaign is great. Nineteen years of consistently delivering is something else entirely. We’ve become an extension of the Guards Polo Club team, providing fuss-free, creative support whenever and wherever it’s needed, across the UK season and at prestigious international events.
The result:
The success of our partnership is measured by the fact that it’s still going strong after nearly two decades.
Over the last 19 years, we’ve helped elevate the Guards Polo Club brand, support its membership marketing and create premium collateral for events that attract audiences from around the world. Along the way, we’ve become a trusted creative partner, supporting the Club both in the UK and at the Cartier Dubai Polo Tournament in the Middle East.
The truth is, when you find people who understand your brand, deliver consistently and care about the details as much as you do, you tend to keep them around.
