Rudi Cronje \u270c\ufe0f \ud83e\udd1f\ud83c\udffd<\/h2>\n
Co-Founder<\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n \n Before realising building brands is my passion I worked as an Industrial Designer. \n

\n Whilst starting a successful rock \u2018n roll band during my university years and kicking off my career as a conceptual copywriter I soon realised the importance of brand strategy. \n
\n I\u2019ve been devoted to it ever since.\n

\n Challenging convention is where I thrive. I led the first Harley-Davidson campaign focused on black consumers \n in South Africa at BrandsRock (now Saatchi & Saatchi \n South Africa). \n
\n A couple more agency years brought about best practices and awards for Jose Cuervo Tequila and PUMA, dealership network experience for Harley-Davidson and countrywide activations for Converse. \n

\n I moved to PUMA South Africa as Sportstyle Marketing Manager and within 3 short years worked my way up to Senior Commercial Marketing Manager EEMEA overseeing all creative in the region.\u00a0\u00a0\n

\n With a passion for digital and the big ideas I love pushing the boundaries of brand communications. Consumers definitely don\u2019t speak boardroom.\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n "}
