FAQs
No! Our initial contract is just three months. This gives a good amount of time for us to get to know each other and how well we work together, and assess the outcome of our time together. Following this, you are welcome to fix in for a longer period or use us on an adhoc basis (min. 1 day) to cover any busy times in your marketing calendar.
This package covers the standard expectations from an employer, but with a whole lot more experience and bang for your buck than an entry level employee!
For other specialist services (think Web Design and Development, Graphic Design, SEO and PPC etc) then these are managed by Belle and James but charged additionally, if needed.
As you know, an internal hire comes with a lot more responsibility and HR paperwork. The salary offered is not actually the full price of what you pay an internal hire when you add up holidays, sickness, maternity etc…
It also comes with the need to spend your precious time training them up. We have worked within many industries, and have wide team knowledge, that we can hit the ground running – there will be no downtime or responsibility from your side.
We don’t like to bang on about history, but between the team we have a lot of it!
Internal Marketing hires will typically be very generalist in their marketing approach whereas our team have working in-house and agency side and have a raft of specialist skills that we bring to the party!
All of our work is done remotely, but you wouldn’t really notice. We integrate into your team and are widely available on Slack or Google Chat – plus we meet virtually with key personnel for a monthly overview and report meeting.
Working remotely means we work longer hours for you as there is no commute time, or water cooler chats, to distract us.
Well, I guess you can’t but having run three agencies from a standing start and with a successful, retained client base for all then you’ll just have to trust us! We’re not a team of whippersnappers, we’ve been around the block but because of this we’ll give you feedback of what we know works, rather than simply nod along with your requests.
Expertise on demand.
We’ll seamlessly integrate into your B2B business and hit the ground running setting up systems and processes to help achieve your marketing goals.

Ready to get started?
Our clients who already work with us on this outsourced package tell us ‘how did we ever manage without you guys?‘ or ‘you have made a serious impact on our sales revenue!’ – and perhaps it will be the same for your business too.
But we understand we won’t be the right fit for everyone. For a really powerful working relationship, you must understand the importance of a consistent and strategic marketing approach which is suitable for your specific business type.
If this sounds like you, then choose a date and time on the form opposite and let’s get together on a 30 minute call where we can discuss your challenges and see how we can help.
