The Rathbone Story
Rathbone Media was established by Geoff Cole in 1991. Geoff a former Director of Saatchi and Saatchi for nearly 25 years decided it was time to create his own Media agency. With that, he retired from the London Advertising scene and chose his first home for Rathbone to be in Shenfield, Essex. Geoff originally wanted to create a small advertising agency focusing on just a few, if not a single client and take it a little easier than he had been. Unfortunately for Geoff it was not time for him to retire yet and clients started to approach Geoff for his media planning and buying prowess. Success came quickly and it became apparent that he would need more likeminded media people and he begun to recruit and the company grow.
One of the first clients to join Rathbone Media was Topps UK, a little known confectionary brand from the US trying to promote its confectionary to stores throughout the UK. Topps, through careful planning, slowly grew into a nationally advertised product with brand name and catchline that we still know today – "Don't push me, push a Push Pop!"..................
