Meet #IAmEnterprising Partner - Agent Marketing

We are happy to announce that the fantastic Agent Marketing will be joining us on the #IAmEnterprising project! 

Check out what they've got to say, and what they will be offering the winner of #IAmEnterprising...

Agent Marketing is an award-winning, full service marketing agency based in the Baltic Triangle in Liverpool, and in Hoxton in London. The right way for us, is the only way; and that is to live and breathe our values. 

Whilst these words are (literally) plastered on our walls, it is through the behaviours of our people that they truly come to life. Our range of services have been designed around the needs of our clients; in essence we have co-created them together. We made a conscious decision to become a specialist in all areas of strategy, design and communications delivery. That’s what our clients want, and most importantly, it’s what keeps them coming back.Our values not only shape us but how we use our profits. As such we have launched Agent Academy CIC to help support young people who can not afford higher education or those who leave university without commercial skills. Agent Academy CIC is the first of its kind in the UK.

Agent Marketing will be offering the lucky winner a day of design consultancy with one of our leading creative consultants, Edward McIver. Working with Ed, we’ll help the winner bring their brand alive in the form of creating a company logo or use their existing identity to help design marketing materials that will really help the business communicate with its target audience.
