FROG met almost every week for lengthy discussions on its business, of course, at no expense to product production. Under the guidance of Liz Hyatt and her deputy, Daniel Saron, the duo steered the company to a great deal of success. The company made record sales, thanks mostly due to a highly efficient sales and marketing strategy, led by Naaila Hamid, Lucy Hallam, Laura Whittaker and Rachael Brierley.
