We are a full service integrated PR and communications agency specialising in engaging, effective content for online, print and corporate communications.
By full service communications agency we mean that we can help you with all aspects of content - from concept to completion and subsequent management. We can work closely with your team and external stakeholders to develop new concepts, create, organise and manage content, write or commission additional content, manage your content and social media activities.
We are integrated because we believe that we achieve better results for clients by combining strategy, content and creative.
Although we are small, we are beautiful. To run a big agency you need many people. Most of the big name agencies use a supply of creative talent that ranges from being in-house, to outsourced and outsourced again. On the whole we are like-minded solo practitioners; we collaborate on projects using the agency as our collective umbrella, but also pursue solo interests and projects. Our core team provides strategic leadership to drive results for our clients.
We are lean and mean, agile and cost-effective - key requirements for the new economy. We're a small agency with big ideas, passionate about helping clients get their message across - online, in print and in the media.
Our talent base covers a wide range of creative and technical skills and a very happy blue chip client base to illustrate that we punch well above our weight when it comes to providing full service.
A lot of our work in done on our clients' premises, but we do have hubs in two convenient locations.
In London we're based on the Southbank next to Tate Modern. Over the past decade the Southbank has become an increasingly popular location for digital, creative and media agencies.
Our other base is near Frome on the border of Somerset and Wiltshire. Frome was recently voted one of the Top 10 towns in the UK for digital industries.
We create. We make things happen. We are focused, commercially-driven grafters with a wealth of experience. Every job is different and that means that we evolve with the work we do for our clients. We are agile. It's one of our key strengths.
As a collaborative micro agency we provide streamlined strategic leadership for exceptional creatives with a can-do attitude. We are also ambitious, competitive and obsessive about excellence. We love working with equally passionate creative people to deliver world-class results.
