These brand extensions help our clients enhance their brand awareness, increase consumer touchpoints, and generate new revenue streams. Current Beanstalk clients include Stanley Black & Decker, Diageo (incl. Guinness and Baileys brands), TGI Friday’s, Procter & Gamble, Shell, Activision (Call of Duty) and Microsoft (Xbox and Halo) among others. Find out more at www.beanstalk.com
