and why Leighton joined the Chamber
When Leighton founded Ladder and Co, he had one clear goal: to help businesses grow through smart digital marketing strategies and advertising, both locally and internationally.
However as every business owner knows, growing a company comes with its challenges. Knowing that he needed the right support, connections, and resources, Leighton made the decision to join the Auckland Business Chamber – a decision that’s made a real difference in his journey.
