"Working with Pepper on our Outlet Shopping campaign at The O2 was a very positive experience. I was highly satisfied with the overall results and felt the team delivered good value for our investment. The post-campaign analysis stood out in particular - it offered strong insights and clear, actionable recommendations that will inform our future marketing efforts. Overall, communication throughout the campaign was consistent and supportive. I would absolutely consider working with Pepper again and feel confident recommending their services to others."
