"It's been a real pleasure working with Jep over the past 12 years. Jep's knowlege and experience in the entertainment and events industry is second to none and he is my go to for production and creativity. Jep's attention to detail has helped us keep our events on track and within budget. In these changing times I still see Jep continuing to innovate and create the new. I look forward to continue our work with Jep."
Duane Wichman-Evans, Managing Director Oystar Creative
"It is rare to find a collaborator who can truly understand mission objectives, cultural context and community-mindedness in the pursuit of professional excellence. For Tofiga's first outing at the NZ International Comedy Festival in 2021, we had a choice between spending on a traditional marketing campaign or to test a community outreach/word-of-mouth marketing strategy. We chose to spend our budget on people instead of physical ads, on the hunch that there was more to be gained with mobilising ten Samoan aunties than a bus back campaign. Jep/Manatua championed and expertly planned and executed our marketing efforts, helping us sell out the multi-city touring season. There is no better endorsement than repeat business; we look forward to working with Jep again, and again."
