Richard has been involved with the Website and Digital marketing industry for over 15 years and has been designing websites since he was 18 years old. He is responsible for all things "creative" in the Beyond Your Brand regime.

He's also been involved with the TV, theatre and film industry for many years; a former professional wrestler, trained actor and award-winning film-maker, makes him a creative bundle extraordinaire.

Richard joined Beyond Your Brand as for him it was an opportunity to work with like-minded people in building something special in the digital and creative industry.

Richard is actually based in Rutland and lives in the countryside with his wife and two young children. When he's not involved with web designing, he's probably thinking up a new script, hitting the weights down the gym or more likely to be in the local pub tasting what ales are on offer. Cheers.

Paul’s aspiration is to support Beyond Your Brand’s clients as they grow. He has experience in managing businesses and sales teams and designing and implementing proven commercial strategies to maximise growth opportunities. Straight out of college, Paul started his career in sales with a well-established electronic component manufacturer, Selectronic, where he learnt the value of implementing clear and practical sales strategies. Selectronic’s customer base included the likes of Motorola, Nokia, Panasonic, Pace and Amstrad, all of which were going through massive growth within the consumer industries.

Having travelled to many countries and being involved in a fast-paced commercial world, Paul decided to take his career in a different direction and joined Thames Valley Police, where he spent 11 years as a Police Constable. Paul had a varied career in the Police, which included working in Bicester, Banbury and Witney as a beat officer, three years working as a Detective in the Criminal Investigations Department and four years as a Police Dog Handler.

Following an injury, Paul decided to return to the private sector and took on a role as Regional Director for a start-up technology company in the world of biometrics. This was another fast-paced role that saw the company go through a period of rapid expansion.

Paul has three kids and ‘enjoys’ being a weekend taxi driver. A life-long Crystal Palace FC supporter, Paul has certainly learnt to deal with highs and lows. He has completed several walking challenges, including the 100-mile South Downs Way and 150 miles of the Thames Path, all in order to raise money for a local primary school. If you ask him nicely, he’ll be pleased to show you his collection of blister photographs.

After years working predominantly in the charitable sector, managing huge Google Ad accounts and SEO campaigns for nonprofits like Chatham House, The King's Fund, Meningitis Now, Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, Epilepsy Society and The National Garden Scheme, Caroline joined forces with Paul Coombes to create Beyond Your Brand. The concept for the agency was to build a collaborative agency, where the web design/development team worked closely with the digital marketing teams in order to drive meaningful results; looking beyond simply increasing traffic, but towards increasing leads and sales.

As BYB’s Digital Marketing Director, Caroline is responsible for ensuring clients get the very best from their websites, and works closely with the team to make sure we are always working towards the same goal. Her objectives for Beyond Your Brand are to make it an enjoyable, happy place to work; a business where nobody is held back, but everybody is encouraged to be the best they can be - in their own unique way, however that may be.

Outside of work Caroline plays tennis for Oxfordshire and captains the Witney Ladies A team. She has sky-dived, bungee-jumped, white-water-rafted the highest commercially rafted waterfall in the world and travelled a lot! She also enjoys playing the piano, going on long walks and dining out (anything to avoid having to cook!)
