Most importantly, we want to enable considered impact, not random results. That’s why your strategy will be a true reflection of what makes you great. It will be targeted, realistic, and actionable. And it will be designed to grow sustainably as your business transforms.

  • Track record supporting businesses with commercial transformation

  • Clients achieved IPO, M&A, strategic exits, investment and more

  • Growth marketing model tailored for B2B, tech, telecoms and science sectors

  • An agile approach so your strategy evolves as you do

EV understood the importance of what we wanted to achieve as a company and turned our big picture ambitions into a reality with the brand and marketing strategy they created. They took our vision, our purpose and our offerings and made them compelling at an international level.

We approached EV to help build a market stance that demonstrated our experience, capability, and confidence. With our previous experience of marketing, we really valued the importance of a strategic overview – and this blueprint has enabled us to attract more interest while creating an image that we’re proud to represent.

The team at EV were extremely thorough and able to distil what our USPs were within a diverse and competitive market. Their work gave us a direct strategy to enter the market, approach larger clients and effectively accelerate our market growth to the point of a very successful exit.

Marketing strategy services for commercial growth.

Our marketing strategies combine where you are now, with getting you to where you want to be.

This means we create brand propositions that authentically represent who you are, but also give you the step up you need to achieve your next growth targets.

Equally, our marketing strategy services focus on long-term brand development. We’ll help you hit short-term goals like growing visibility, while also continuing to evolve and strengthen your brand identity. This means it remains effective throughout new product launches, team growth, and other commercial milestones.

Here are a few examples of goals we’ve helped achieve:

  • Raising investment

    Whether you’re series A, B or C, we create tailored strategies that commercialise your proposition and target investors.

  • Gaining brand authority

    We help businesses build brand awareness and credibility as market leaders, leading to results like award wins, speaking events, partnerships, and lead generation.

  • Increasing sales

    If your goal is to grow audiences and build a stronger lead generation engine, our omnichannel marketing strategies will support sales growth across digital channels.

  • Scaling the business

    We create strategies that help you compete in bigger spaces, with bigger players, so you can confidently enter new markets, target larger ICPs, and scale.

Results of working with a strategic marketing agency.

AT Internet.

AT Internet’s brand and marketing strategy wasn’t competing in the market, despite its stronger offering. So, we created a go-to-market strategy (including product methodologies and sector-specific pitch decks) that would open the door to bigger tenders and build their reputation.

The result? Clients including the BBC and WSJ, followed by an acquisition by Piano.io

Our approach to brand strategy.

EV brings emotion and data together to create a compelling, long-term strategy.

We work collaboratively with you – your partners, your team, and your customers – to understand all areas of the business inside out. This helps us understand what truly sets you apart as well as how marketing needs to support other business activity. Then, we combine this with our own data-driven audience and market research, so we know what we’re creating isn’t just authentic, but effective.

The result is a creative brand that can inspire people – backed by a detailed plan that will help you reach your short- and long-term goals.

What’s involved in creating a marketing strategy.

Every strategy is different, determined by your stage of brand development and your ambitions for growth. While the details will change, we always follow a defined process to uncover your bespoke path to success. During this process, you’ll work with many different people on our team – from strategists to content writers and designers – to ensure we’re creating a fully integrated brand strategy.

  • Research
    More

    Our strategies start by building market and internal knowledge from your stakeholders. This includes the data-driven – like what areas drive the most sales – as well as the emotional – like the driving motivation behind your work. This helps us create an equally authentic and effective plan.

    • Market and competitor research
    • Stakeholder interviews
    • Digital marketing audits
    • Creative workshops
  • Commercial and marketing strategy
    More

    At this stage, we start to bring everything together. After a few weeks of understanding your purpose – who you are, what makes you great, and in which markets you will be most effective – we turn this into the first stages of your marketing strategy: your core strategic positioning.

    • Company positioning
    • Product positioning
    • Audience analysis and segmentation
    • Persona creation
  • Brand identity
    More

    Your brand identity will articulate a clear niche and proposition that resonates with your audience, and acts as the foundation for marketing activity. This is where we expand on that core positioning, and turn it into a fully-fledged brand personality, voice and messaging that can be applied across all marketing materials.

    • Value proposition
    • Brand personality and tone of voice
    • Brand messaging and guidelines
    • Audience messaging
  • Go-to-market plan
    More

    We don’t leave you with all the ideas and no plan to action them. At this stage we deliver a long-term and integrated digital marketing plan based on your marketing strategy. This will outline activity over a year or more, showing you exactly how we plan to reach your goals and grow your brand long-term.

    • Objectives and KPIs
    • Go-to-market and channel strategy
    • Digital infrastructure strategy
  • Marketing activity
    More

    If you choose to keep working with us, our multi-skilled team will manage, deliver and report on marketing activity. You’ll benefit from multiple specialties working together under one roof, so we can deliver your campaigns from start to finish and then use the learnings to update your plan and improve results moving forwards.

    Your dedicated account manager will make you feel like you’re working with an in-house team – they communicate regularly, collaborate with you on the plan, and ensure everything is consistent and high-quality.

    • Digital marketing implementation
    • Regular communication and activity
    • Monthly reporting
    • Annual review and forward planning
