Are we right for you?

Not every partnership is the right fit, and that's okay. Choosing the right marketing partner is one of the most critical decisions you'll make for your brand. The wrong choice costs time, money, and momentum. The right choice is an investment that pays back in clarity, credibility, and growth.

We are likely a good fit if:

  • You're a growth-stage brand ready to invest in marketing and PR, but lack the in-house team to execute

  • You need strategic clarity on what to prioritise and how to move forward

  • You want senior-level thinking plus execution, not just a deck and a handoff

  • You're tired of managing multiple agencies or freelancers

  • You're ready to invest properly but want to see clear results

  • You've outgrown DIY marketing

  • You're at an inflection point: funding secured, team growing, ready to scale

  • You need help getting media attention for a launch, campaign, or leadership initiative

Dardis...

After 7 years as Head of Communications at Red Bull, Susie Dardis spent the next decade delivering standout campaigns for brands like Sky Sports, Diageo, Heineken, and An Post.

Along the way, she saw a gap: growth-minded businesses had the appetite and budget to scale, but lacked the in-house resources (or the right external support) to make it happen.

She built Dardis + Dog for brands with big goals and even bigger to-do lists - a boutique consultancy that acts as an extension of your team, bringing in best-in-class collaborators who fit your project and your culture.

The result? Less fluff, more focus, and brand communications that actually move the needle.

...+ Dog?

Dogs are loyal. They're focused. They don't overthink things. And when they catch a scent? There's no stopping them.

That's how we work. We cut through the noise, lock onto what matters, and see it through—no matter how many squirrels try to derail the plan.

(Plus, Susie's a dog person. Obvs.)
