Ben plays guitar with Richard Fortus of Guns n’ Roses/Thin Lizzy

Recently Ben Franklin, Yank and Limey’s president and creative director, had the fortunate opportunity to have a guitar lesson with guitarist Richard Fortus of Guns n’ Roses and Thin Lizzy. Ben spent several hours with Richard, talking about everything from raising children to life as a rock star. In the time Ben could say ‘Helvetica Rocks’, Richard had ripped through a hundred guitar notes with his lightning fast fingers in multiple styles, leaving our very own Y&L guitarist speechless and in awe of witnessing skills of this caliber.

Yank and Limey spices up Arcobasso Foods presentation

When helping Arcobasso present to a client that has a well known line of dressings, we knew we needed to go big and bold… literally. The last thing we wanted to do was create the old Powerpoint presentation. And the presentation was happening in a dining room at a restaurant… not the best place for a slide show.

So we created a larger-than-life scroll that allowed Arcobasso to present their ideas for a regional rollout in a way that had their client eating out of their hands. Well received by the client, Arcobasso is now ready to put the plan to work. This project needed a new, different, and better way of presenting a marketing concept. And that’s exactly what the client received. Learn more here.
