Rethink Branding

One off Projects, Retainers & Consultancy

You’re spending money on marketing. But is it working?

If you’ve ever wondered where the budget’s going, or why it’s not turning into results you’re not alone.

Maybe you’re running some ads, posting on social when you get a chance, doing bits of PR, possibly a little website development. But it all feels a bit…………. disconnected.

That’s the problem with a scattergun approach. It keeps you busy, but it rarely delivers the results you want.

We help you stop, take a step back, and make sense of it all.

No shiny distractions. No one-size-fits-all solutions. Just proper strategic thinking rooted in your business.

Together, we’ll build a clear, joined-up plan that:

  • Focuses your time, energy and spend in the right places
  • Aligns with your commercial goals and growth ambitions
  • Gives you confidence in what’s working, and what’s not


Marketing doesn’t have to be complicated. But it should be strategic

Coaching

You don’t always need more ideas, you just need space to think.

Our coaching sessions give you time to talk things through, and get clear on what really matters. Whether you’re stuck, second-guessing, or full of ideas and unsure which to follow, we’ll help you sort through it.

We’ll work at your pace, ask the right questions, and help you move forward…

Sometimes the best ideas are already in your head, you just need a good sounding board to get them out

Team Training Sessions

We get it, you have a team that is working “On the marketing” but do they think or act strategically? Do they fully understand your target customer or your positioning within the market-place?

Do they understand the importance of brand consistency and the impact this has on the business and your customers? 

We design and deliver training that helps your team:

  • Think like marketers, not just do marketing
  • Think more strategically, rather than focusing solely on tactics
  • Understand your customer and your positioning
  • Communicate with clarity and consistency


Sessions are completely tailored to your business and your people.

Because when your team gets it, your customers feel it.

We are your Marketing team

It can be hard to find time to work “on the business” when you’re consumed by what’s going on “in it”. 

Marketing can often be the last thing on your list and we totally get it. That’s why we’re on hand to act as your in-house marketing team, but without the salary costs, holiday pay or National Insurance contributions. 

We can work flexibly to suit you, whether that’s remote or alongside you within your business, we’ll fit around your needs. 

If you’re looking for years of experience, without the huge investment, we’re the answer. 

Workshops

Marketing Plan – Ideal Customer – Customer Journey – Creating your Brand 

We love working with businesses of all sizes, which is why we’ve created workshop sessions that bring together small business owners who are looking for help with their marketing. 

If you’re a business owner who feels overwhelmed by all the advice, posts, and “quick-fix” offers out there, these workshops are for you.

They’re enjoyable, practical sessions designed to help you:

  • Make sense of your marketing
  • Understand your ideal customer
  • Shape your story and messaging
  • Build a plan you can actually follow


You’ll leave with clarity, confidence, and a structure that works for your business, not someone else’s template.

Each session includes:

  • A friendly, focused group of like-minded business owners (max 10 people)
  • A follow-up 1-to-1 session for personalised support
  • Accountability check-ins to keep things on track


If you’ve been meaning to “get your marketing sorted” for months – this is the place to start.

What our Clients Say

Reignite. Rethink. reconnect. Recreate.

Who We Work With

Reignite

Running a business is hard, so it’s easy to lose sight of your ‘why’, get overwhelmed or persevere with lack lustre support and creative work that’s lost it’s mojo. Our relentlessly passionate approach will reignite your enthusiasm, realign your direction and remind you of all the amazing things your business can achieve.

Rethink

Before we make recommendations, we take time to understand what’s been tried, what’s working, and what’s not quite delivered.

We get under the skin of your business, understanding your team, your customer experience, your market position, and use that insight to develop marketing and brand strategies that are practical, focused, and aligned with your growth plans.

Reconnect

Growth often brings new customers, new needs, and new opportunities, but are you speaking to them clearly?

We help you get laser-focused on your most valuable audiences—who they are, what they care about, and how your brand fits into their world.

Whether it’s refining your positioning, redefining your messaging, or opening up new markets, we’ll reconnect your brand with the right people, in the right way.

Recreate

This is where it comes to life.

With strategy in place, we bring the creative to match, storytelling, design, campaigns and content that feel authentic to you and compelling to your audience.

Whether it’s a full brand refresh or a focused marketing rollout, we deliver work that gets attention, drives engagement, and supports the long-term success of your business.

Our Ethos

If it’s important to you, it’s important to us!

We have had the pleasure of working with many business owners in many different industries. Every business is different with different objectives – we want to get to know what’s important to you.

We treat all projects with the same curiosity 

We need to get to know your business before any outcomes are delivered and we follow some simple steps…

      1. Understand the DNA of your business by asking the right questions
      2. Be clear on your objectives
      3. Create a bespoke strategy that works for your business

We bring maximum value without the huge overheads

We are not a huge agency with a pool table and swanky furniture in reception. We don’t have a frappucino and smoothie machine (although we do make a great coffee!)


We are not an army of Account Handlers, New Business Managers, and Sales Directors clambering for the next deal. We are not about politics, gossip or smoke and mirrors.

We keep it real and deliver maximum impact for you and your business.
