Adam has lived and breathed the hospitality sector for the last 20 years. His background is not only technology focussed, but he has managed a number of venues across the premium casual market.
When loyalty was but a pipe dream for most, Adam looked to create something revolutionary in the sector and began creating Club Individual for Individual Restaurants. It’s evolved dramatically over the last 10 years and boasts close to 2m members. This was the driver behind the decision to create TheLoyaltyCo to allow this wealth of knowledge to benefit both other industries and other hospitality driven outlets.
Adam is seen as an industry expert with expertise covering IT, systems, development and SQL with loyalty, technology, marketing e-commerce and deliverability being only some of his areas of expertise.
Adam is also an accredited business mentor and lives and breathes what he’s learned and mentored on the Dale Carnegie course

I fixed issues I never thought I could. The blue screens. The smashed screens. The Internet troubles. And all that in between.
Sure, I was Born in Yorkshire. But I was made to support you.

Dan Essex is Technical Consultant at TLC Solutions and is sure to have a technical solution to your problem, no matter how sedate or ambitious the pitch. Mr Essex studied Computing for Internet and Multimedia at RGU in Aberdeen and then Media Technology at Salford University before going into the industry working for a variety of employers both in hospitality and in technology, which makes him well suited to this role here at TLC Solutions.
He has a wealth of experience in a whole gamut of technical fields including valuable experience as a sales technician at a large computer warehouse and also spent some time working for Apple as a Specialist, which helped him to understand the world of hardware procurement and gave him valuable insight into the core technical competencies and requirements of the general public.
Dan likes nothing more than getting his hands on bleeding-edge tech and figuring out how it all works – many a product in the Essex household was taken apart in his early days in pursuit of this goal, and most of the time 12-year-old Dan was able to put it back together again too!

Marta Gomà Garcia
After studying Hotel Management in Barcelona (her home town), Marta moved to the UK where she worked in five-star hotels such as the Savoy and Claridge’s. Exceeding expectations and attention to detail are part of her nature.

Callum Bickerstaffe
Built my first PC at 10. Started working in Hospitality at 15. College to study IT at 16. Moved to Manchester for uni at 18. I worked nights in Revolution. But then I stopped pulling pints and started pushing myself. I upped my game. Made a leap to IT and started learning more. I did things I never dreamed I would. I fixed issues I never thought I could. The blue screens. The smashed screens. The Internet troubles. And all that in between.
Sure, I was Born in Yorkshire. But I was made to support you.
