We’re so unbelievably excited to have been shortlisted for the Best Start-Up Agency award and would LOVE for you to get to know us a bit better. As a digital marketing agency, we’re usually the ones asking all the questions, but this time we’re stealing the spotlight! So here it goes…
Who are you?
We’re real5 Digital, but we usually call ourselves the digital rockstars! There’s 6 of us altogether and we each specialise in different areas. Whether it’s creating killer campaigns, capturing the perfect social media content, building impactful emails, creating engaging graphics, or communicating with our clients, we work together to meet our client’s needs. You can find out more about who we are and what our super-skills are on our website!

After getting to know your businesses and understanding your goals, we work to get your audience interested, engaged and converted via various different channels and strategies. All with a rockstar touch of course to help your content stand out. You can find out more about the services we provide via our website.
What is the award you have been shortlisted for and why?
We’ve been shortlisted for ‘Best Start-Up Agency (less than 2 years old)’. Stacey and Negin started the business in June 2020 with over 10 years of experience in marketing and a vision to provide a friendly and approachable service that could help businesses of all shapes and sizes to succeed in a modern business climate.
Since then, we’ve worked hard to help our clients become more visible online and attract the customers they desire. We’re proud to have supported many amazing clients since getting started including Warrington BID, Rylands FC, Golden Square, Warrington Wolves Foundation… there are too many to name! We’re lucky to have a fantastic working relationship with all of our clients and are proud of the progress we have made in under 2 years.
How are you feeling now you have made the finals for the prestigious awards?
Delighted! We actually popped a bottle of champagne in the office as soon as we found out. Now that’s what you call a rock and roll reaction to good news! Because we’re still such a newly established company, it still feels a bit surreal how far we’ve come. Being shortlisted for this award just goes to show that all our hard work and efforts are paying off! Winning the award would be the perfect way to celebrate turning 2. Not just for ourselves and the team but for the clients that have trusted in us and supported our journey along the way.
When we first started in June 2020, there were many businesses struggling to adapt under a change of circumstances. We saw the need that a fresh approach would be needed to help businesses flourish under an increasingly digital new era and decided to start a digital marketing agency despite the risks that come with starting any new business.
It’s safe to say we were able to support many businesses with our digital marketing services. We still work with a lot of the same businesses that engaged with us at the start and are lucky to have gained many new clients too!
What are you most proud of?
Definitely our team. We are extremely hard working and passionate which comes across in the work we do and the relationships we have built in Cheshire and the North West since setting up in 2020.
