PARTNERSHIP PITCH DECK

Vibrant invitation to collaborate detailing past partnership successes and endless opportunities to drive shared growth.

PROBLEM

ACCO Brands had a lot to offer potential brand partners and licensees, but only a cold, corporate deck that fell short in selling the vision during initial conversations.

GOAL

Revamp the existing deck into a more visually compelling and cohesive pitch detailing the power behind our brands and the opportunities to be explored through partnership.

OUTCOME

The deck helped award business with Rifle Paper Co., a powerhouse in the stationery and home goods category who stumbled upon our Cambridge brand’s social media account which I was both managing and creating content for at the time. It sealed the deal and led to placement of our co-branded collection, Rifle Paper Co. for Cambridge, both in store and online at Target. In later years, the same deck was used to ultimately secure partnerships with additional brands like Draper James, National Wildlife Federation, Papyrus, and Rad & Happy.

IMPACT

  • More than 5 new licensing and partnership deals have been made since using the new deck
