Bio
David Johnston
I worked with Guy at Turtlewax,when the company was going through allot of change. Guy was always clear and concise in his vision, of how to profitably grow the markets and the sales team. Working closely with Guy we were able to achieve the objectives laid out in the goals and aims. Guy was always on top of his numbers pushing to get ahead of budget and drive the brand within the different sectors. He coached and developed the sales team, and was a good sounding board for ideas that came up. His innate commercial acumen was immediately apparent. I enjoyed working with him and would not hesitate for a minute if the opportunity to do so came up again.

Guy was in charge of export markets for Accantia/Simple Health & Beauty, when we did sales and marketing of the Simple skincare brand in Norway. It was built, together with Guy and his team, from 0% share to market leading position within the skincare market in ten years, and we had an inspiring, winning and hard working approach from both sides. He was always pushing and motivating us to look for opportunities of growth but with a clear strategy as base. And he had a good balance between leveraging on the global brand platform and implementing according to a locally adapted plan. I have great respect of Guy Teale, and our cooperation and interesting discussions over the years taught me a lot. He has great international market experience and are very dedicated to both partners and results. I would be very happy to work with Guy again and will give him my best recommendations.
