NOTES TO RECRUITERS
Ben Spiller is good at – and actually enjoys - programming digital ads. He once got his father’s dusty old WW2 manuscript into the Amazon 20 for military History. According to reports, his father did not remain humble once he’d tasted fame.
FUN FACTS
Spiller once created ads for the biggest screen in Europe (London Stadium).
Spiller has invented a type of tray that has a handle that slots onto a wine bottle. It’s not yet sold any units, but he never stops talking about it.

SPILLER’S 6 COMMANDMENTS OF MARKETING
1. The best way to get what you want is to deserve it.
2. Strategy is about figuring out where to apply energy and resources in a way that will provide disproportionate gains. All tactics should come from that.
3. The Lollapalooza effect works. Multiple touch-points (both brand and direct Calls to Action) are much more powerful than just one touch-point.
4. Putting together incredible offer will always improve sales numbers.
5. Content is the gateway drug to sales
6. When it comes to brand, nothing need be tested, when it comes to direct marketing, everything should be tested.
BIO
Following an early mid-life crisis in 2016 and 5 years sporadically travelling the world (visiting over 20 countries), Spiller has settled down in East London, where he enjoys buying things on eBay and watching a seemingly endless list of box sets (such as Downton Abbey, Game of Thrones, Love is Blind, Married at First Sight, and, particularly Mad Men) with his girlfriend.

Spiller did eventually jump the tallest bungee in the world, after much deliberation.
