WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY ABOUT US

  • Diana Rhodes, Director of CXC
    ChilternXC worked with Stride Management to help with the launch of our new cross country course in South Oxfordshire. Pip and the team were so knowledgeable, proactive, full of ideas and have a fantastic local network. They really took away much of the potential stress of launching a new venue. Having set up ChilternXC after 30 years in PR, it was quite nerve-wracking handing the marketing over to someone else but it was definitely the right decision. They are a superb agency
    Diana Rhodes, Director of CXC
  • Louie Atkinson, Equestrian Commentater
    I commissioned the team at Stride Management to create a logo and email signature for my work in equestrian media. Both Pippa & Jess at Stride have been incredibly helpful, no matter how many times I change my mind and what adjustments made. We began the process with very little inspiration but the team picked up the reins and produced a fantastic logo. I would highly recommend Stride Management for any design requirements you may have alongside their PR and web support. Thank you!
    Louie Atkinson, Equestrian Commentater
  • Shane Breen, International Showjumper, Breen Equestrian
    Having worked with the team at Stride for just over a year now, I can safely say that Stride is going to be a big thing. Not only has our social media presence improved, but our relationships with sponsors are stronger and Breen Equestrian has been featured in multiple publications. I'd recommend Stride to anyone in the equestrian industry who's looking to take their business to the next level.
    Shane Breen, International Showjumper, Breen Equestrian
  • Debby Lax, Managing Director, SFB Equestrian
    We can't thank Stride enough for helping us create a new image and logo. We were given more than 10 choices and it was almost impossible to choose one as they were all fantastic. It's been brilliant and we've now been using it for all of our equipment, on the horses and on letterheads. Thank you so much. 
    Debby Lax, Managing Director, SFB Equestrian
  • Chuffy Clarke, International Event Rider and Showjumper
    "Having worked with the Stride girls for over a year now, I feel like we have built a good relationship with great communication.

    I don’t have to worry about the upkeep of my website as they keep on top of it for me with what I post on my socials, or I just pop them a message and they are always there at the other end of the phone."

    Chuffy Clarke, International Event Rider and Showjumper
  • Emma Cover, Marketing Manager, KBIS Equestrian Insurance
    "I really enjoy working with Pippa and Jess. They have lots of good ideas and nothing is ever too much trouble. They are always at the end of the phone if you need them and they are happy to be flexible and fit in with how we work."
    Emma Cover, Marketing Manager, KBIS Equestrian Insurance
  • Camilla Bingham, Puttenham Place
    "I can honestly say I love working with Stride. Right from the start to now they have always been available to chat, throw ideas at me and most importantly support me and push me to believe in myself, the horses and the future. I've really enjoyed starting my blog and meeting companies and sponsors that are suited to my team and that's all thanks to Stride."
    Camilla Bingham, Puttenham Place
  • Jess Williams, TW Stables
    "Stride’s super friendly team created our bespoke website. They keep it up to date, preparing weekly news updates and regularly assist us in the promotion of our business, across all media platforms. We look forward to an ongoing and successful partnership with Stride."
    Jess Williams, TW Stables
  • Rebecca Farrer, EquestriMen
    "EquestriMen have been working with Stride Management for a little while, with not being marketing-minded I was really struggling, I had my first event looming and was doing nothing to promote my new business, other than taking on a sponsored rider. The girls at Stride Management did exactly that, they strode in and managed everything for me, new logos, new graphics, adverts, press releases were put together in a matter of weeks. Our first event was a success because of them, and it’s continued through this year with SM posts and sponsored riders being managed by them and everything else in between. I can’t wait to see what the future holds for EquestriMen with Stride Management behind us."
    Rebecca Farrer, EquestriMen
  • Andrew Ryde, Associate Investment Director of Investec Wealth & Investment Limited
    "Working with Stride Management has helped us enormously to maximise the impact of our equestrian sponsorships. Whether it be the planning and organisation of unique hospitality for our clients and guests or helping to manage the relationship with our sponsored riders, Stride’s knowledge of the equestrian sport and their extensive contacts in the equestrian industry are invaluable and of significant benefit to us. Jess & Pippa are incredibly hard-working, conscientious and offer a very high level of service. In addition, Jess & Pippa are forward thinking &proactive and take time to carefully consider what we are looking to achieve through our sponsorships and put in place an appropriate strategy to help us to achieve our goals."
    Andrew Ryde, Associate Investment Director of Investec Wealth & Investment Limited
  • Coral Keen
    "Since I’ve been working with Stride I’ve gained new sponsorship and built on the great relationships I have with my existing sponsors. They offer a really personal service and no matter how busy they are always pick up the phone and talk through everything I need doing. Having them onboard has meant that I can focus more on the horses and has taken a lot of stress away from me."
    Coral Keen
  • Georgia Tame
    "As a young rider, Stride have been instrumental in helping me build my name in the equestrian world. They assist me with everything I need doing from meeting blogging deadlines & updating social media, to liaising with sponsors. In a busy industry, they manage to keep me organised so all I have more time to focus on is the horses."
    Georgia Tame
  • Franky Reid-Warrilow
    "Professional, friendly and efficient, I couldn’t ask for more."
    Franky Reid-Warrilow
