About us
Meet the Nettl Crew, we’re a lovely bunch.
Chris Nyland
Director
Would you rather be an amazing dancer or be great at maths?
Why choose when you already nail both? Took Maths at A-Level, and my “low swoop” move (often after buying a round of hooches with a jäger bomb chaser) is legendary.
Would You Rather Be Super Fast Or Super Strong?
Super Fast. I’m really hoping this would also apply to replying to emails or creating proposals or invoices etc. Where do I sign? please?
Would you rather be able to time travel to the past or time travel to the future ?
I’ll go future. As my team regularly remind me I’ve seen a lot more of the past then them. I’d like to screw with their heads by being ahead of the game too.
Rosie Batsford
Studio Manager
Would You Rather Only Wear One Color Each Day Or Have To Wear Seven Colors Each Day?
7 colours! Life is too short to play it safe.
Would you rather be able to speak all languages or be able to speak to all animals?
Tough one. All languages would be amazing and so useful, also I love to travel.
(I’d hate to find out what my dog thought of me)
Would you rather live in a place where it is always hot or always cold?
Hot, I’ve never been unhappy on holiday, I also love a siesta.
Vicky Davies-Grant
Lead Designer
Vicky is our lead creative here at Nettl, keeping all the other designers in-check! She’s been part of the team since 2015, her experience means she’s our in-house go-to gal. We think she’s pretty alright at design too, with an array of logo designs, websites and such like to her name.
Other than making things beautiful, Vicky’s strong point is lyrics… Got a song stuck in your head? She’s the original Shazam.
Lily Mizen
Designer
Lily is one of our OG designers. Starting as a web design apprentice back in 2016, she has moved up the ranks and is now one of our top designers, building exceptional websites with crazy integrations, styling and creative flair.
Lily is no stranger to dance floor and can recommend a good G&T.
Sam Caswell-Midwinter
Marketing Executive
Would you rather be an amazing dancer or be great at maths?
I’d rather be great at maths, because I am already an amazing dancer.
Would you rather live in a place where it is always hot or always cold?
Always cold, I struggle with heat in general. Even BBQ sauce gives me the sweats.
Would you rather be able to time travel to the past or time travel to the future?
I’d rather head back to the past, probably the 80’s. The fashion and haircuts were slick. Plus it means I would have been able to experience seeing some of the best musicians live; Prince, Michael Jackson, The Smiths, Bowie.
Elana Wozencroft
Designer
Would You Rather Be Super Fast Or Super Strong?
I would be super strong so I could open all the jars in my house without needing a tea towel.
Would you rather be able to time travel to the past or time travel to the future ?
Travel to the past because I would love to go back to the 80’s and boogie all night long, and maybe drop in on some of my ancestors and see what life was like for them.
Would you rather be able to speak all languages or be able to speak to all animals ?
Speak all languages because I’m quite a chatterbox and I would be able to speak to everyone in the world.
Molly Paish
Marketing Assistant
Would you rather be an amazing dancer or be great at maths?
I would rather be an amazing dancer so that I can boogie all night long to One Direction and JLS – Childhood favourites.
Would you rather live in a place where it is always hot or always cold?
I’d rather live in a place that is always hot, I love the heat and it means I can finally wear the thousands of bikinis I have!
Would you rather be able to breathe underwater or fly?
I would rather be able to fly because I’m not a big fan of water or the sea. I wouldn’t spend enough time in there to need to breathe underwater! Plus, flying would be pretty cool.
Our story
Absolute Creative Marketing was formed in 2007 and has been delivering a wide range of top quality graphic and digital design as well as online and offline marketing from our base in the centre of Gloucester.
Proudly, our company (formerly, and still, known as Absolute Creative) were selected to be the country’s first independent Nettl web design studio – the first nationwide brand of high street web studios. Put simply, we think to trust a company with your website you should expect stability, visibility, the strongest infrastructure and a continuity plan. Oh, and the shared resource and back-office team of geeks is very useful for making great websites too.
We’re still Gloucester Print Shop
Since bolting printing.com to our design studio in 2010, we evolved and innovated to provide Gloucestershire’s first web2print solution – Gloucester Print Shop, saving our client’s more time and extra money. We still operate our very well priced, and easy to use, responsive, online print shop.
We’re now Nettl of Gloucester & Cheltenham!
Sorry to confuse. But in 2016, we had the opportunity to extended our offering into Promotional Merchandise and open another studio in Cheltenham. It means we’re in more places and can offer our merchandise as well as our other services to our lovely clients further afield.
