  • Faster turnaround on video deliverables and enhanced creative output

Another Success Story
“Hiring through Palm, was one of the best decisions I've made this year.. the quality of the talent has been on par with anyone that I've worked with in the UK. The level of English is faultless as well, I've never had a problem with communication. They've been innovative, highly educated, creative and worked around UK time zones. I can't emphasise enough how valuable Palm has been as a partner to our business, especially as we look to scale x2 this year.”
