about us

Specialising in Licensing, Brand Creation and Product Development - we develop and grow original, high-potential creative brands that connect emotionally with consumers, inspiring action and delivering lasting value.

 

Founded in 2010 as a creative lifestyle company, we've evolved into a multi-dimensional, privately owned, global business driven by storytelling, originality, and smart strategy.

What began as one product idea has since grown into:

  • A portfolio of original brands and intellectual properties

  • A successful retail division delivering physical and digital products globally

  • A publishing house producing both print and digital titles

  • A forward-thinking media studio working across TV, digital media, and streaming platforms

 

We believe in the full power of creativity to build not only long term commercial success, but the holistic development of a meaningful legacy business. We are passionate about creating content, products, and experiences that uplift, entertain, and empower and sharing that passion through everything we create and teach.

From consumer brands and storytelling to entrepreneurship and education, our mission is to turn imagination into impact.

 

about Sarah

 
Creative Powerhouse. Brand Builder. IP Visionary

Multi award winning Entrepreneur Sarah Hurley, established the Sarah Hurley creative lifestyle brand and company in 2010 with her last £40 / $50 and a dream to create beautiful, original products.

Using that money to buy a train ticket to a buyers meeting at a TV shopping channel, she secured hours of airtime to launch her first two products.

Within five years, and entirely self-funded, Sarah grew the company from it's humble beginnings into a multi-million dollar global brand, creating over 50,000 products, selling millions of licensed products, opening two UK and two US offices and launching multiple divisions including licensing, retail, publishing and media.
