Lee Pallister Begins a New Chapter in the USA
Lee Pallister Begins a New Chapter in the USA
After more than 17 years building AMI – Marketing for Manufacturing, co-founder Lee Pallister is emigrating to the USA with his family.
17 years of building AMI
Lee co-founded AMI with his brother, Craig, and they built the business from the ground up. Over that time, AMI has grown into the UK’s largest specialist digital marketing agency for UK manufacturers and engineering businesses.
“When you’ve spent this long working alongside someone, building a business from the ground up and experiencing all the highs, challenges and changes that come with it, it’s difficult to sum up what his contribution has meant,” said Craig Pallister, Managing Director.
“AMI simply wouldn’t be where it is today without Lee. His endless enthusiasm, drive and belief in what we’ve been building have played a huge part in growing AMI into what it is today, and I can’t thank him enough for everything he’s put into the business over the years.”
Not goodbye, just a few thousand miles
Lee’s move doesn’t mean leaving AMI behind. We will keep working closely together as Lee and his family settle into life in the USA.
“Starting a business with your brother certainly gives you plenty of stories to tell, and it’s going to feel very different having a few thousand miles between us,” Craig added. “But this certainly isn’t goodbye. I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved together. So proud of you, bruv, onwards and upwards!”
What this means for AMI customers
Lee’s move has been in the works for some time, and we’ve used that time to prepare the team, so customers will see no change in service.
Earlier this year, Kelly McArdle joined AMI as an Account Manager. With 23 years of account management and sales experience, Kelly works with the wider team to look after our customer accounts.
We’ve also welcomed Jon Loates to our search marketing department as an Search Marketing Executive. Search was one of Lee’s key areas of expertise, and Jon will support Mikey Cairns, our Head of SEO, and Simon Appleby on PPC.
We made both appointments to strengthen the service we provide our customers. You can expect the same support from the AMI team, and your usual points of contact will remain the same.
If you have any questions, please get in touch with your account manager.
