Originally from the USA, Elliot Polak founded Textappeal with his French wife and business partner Fabienne. He regularly speaks at international conferences on global brand challenges (Cannes Lions Festival, ANA, IAA, Future Foundation) and contributes to industry publications (Admap, The Internationalist). The Marketer has referred to him as "one of the most creative individuals in business".
Fabienne, a well-respected Parisian business woman, was working as a freelance strategic planner when she teamed up with Elliot in Paris. They had the idea to create a network of international brand experts for global ad campaigns. In 2005, Textappeal moved to London, where the business has gone from strength to strength, working with international brands such as Sony, Vertu and Nikon.
Textappeal’s central hub is based in the cosmopolitan city of London and is staffed by an equally cosmopolitan team of language and marketing specialists. Textappeal has a true understanding of what it means to work with different cultures as its own team is made up of account managers and project managers from all over the world. This in-house mix of cultures and languages not only makes for an exciting workplace, but also adds value to international marketing campaigns. The Textappeal team is united by a passion for cultures, languages and a solid understanding of marketing and brands.
