Troy Maxwell, the managing director of Red Energy promotions recently shared his experience in building a national franchise from the ground up.
In 2004 the internet was really starting to impact upon a business’s ability to reach their target clients through mainstream media. With the mass exodus to online promotions, Red Energy Promotions recognised that the touch and feel of branded and promotional products would be even more appealing. Based on this the original bricks & mortar showroom concept, Red Energy Promotions was born… They’ve been growing from strength to strength ever since.
