Too Gallus’ Barrington Reeves on leadership, high-stakes work and growing an agency in Scotland
The award-winning Glasgow-based agency Too Gallus is proud to celebrate its second birthday in 2022. Youth is certainly a winning factor for the small and powerful team, as its connection to culture ensures future-forward and high-impact results in all of their outputs – working with the likes of Nike, V&A Dundee and luxury fashion retailer Flannels. Alongside the rapid changes and growth that come with developing a fledging business, we spoke to Founder Barrington Reeves about life in Scotland and his leading work for its creative community. PT: Hi Barrington, congratulations on Too Gallus turning two this year! How does it feel? BR: It feels great, honestly. Having started the agency in the middle of a pandemic it’s been great to see it grow from strength to strength. We started with no expectations, so every new project, new client, every advancement, still feels exciting. I don’t think any of us were expecting the growth we’ve experienced, so we’re delighted that something that we’ve put so much effort and dedication into has paid off. It’s a really lovely feeling to look at something you care so much about and see it doing well, with no signs of slowing down.
