Testimonials

We are thrilled to see our team’s remarkable efforts being recognised and celebrated. This prestigious award is a testament to the combined accomplishments of our entire team. Receiving a research-based award for our work with a valued client reaffirms our dedication to connecting a data-led approach with human insight & experience. It serves as compelling evidence that our approach empowers us to consistently deliver exceptional work. Steven Underwood- Managing Director
Bonded

Recognition in these awards is a wonderful honour. Accreditation of this nature is significant because although we are able to say we exceeded targets, to have external review and validation of the strength of this strategy is a great boost. It tells Numatic that they picked the right agency and that our approach is industry-leading and signalling to potential clients that we know what we’re doing! Amy Lighton- Account Manager
Extreme

Everyone is really excited about our award entry and grateful that their efforts are being noticed externally – it’s been the talk of the office over the past few weeks! Being shortlisted at this year’s UK Digital Growth Awards is a great demonstration of the team’s effort and dedication to improving our customer experience. To win the award would be a great honour and achievement for everyone.
Vodafone

Any form of positive industry and peer recognition really helps validate what we’re doing both for our clients and for our agency. We truly care about driving transformational growth for our clients. This also allows us to grow and succeed – it’s a win-win. Coming to the table with hard earned accolades can only be a positive thing in any client or prospective client conversation.
