40 - Ringers Creative: Solving Proper Problems

from Irish Marketing Podcast Hosted by Tinpot Productions

What does it take to build a creative agency around genuinely hard problems? This week on The Irish Marketing Podcast, Daryl sits down with Miriam Hendrick and Bobby Burns, the principals behind Ringers Creative, for a wide-ranging conversation about agency life, culture, and what it really means to do good work. They dig into the concept of the 'proper problem' — why the brief on the page is rarely the real brief — and how that philosophy shapes everything from pitching to hiring. Miriam and Bobby also open up about their recent competitive pitch win with Donegal Catch, a brand so embedded in Irish culture that even naming it conjures its most famous line. The challenge now? Building the next chapter. There's also an honest conversation about ego, culture, and why their no-dickheads policy starts at the hiring stage. Plus, Bobby's 14-year side hustle in lawn mowing makes a surprise appearance.
