COMPLEXITY CLARIFIED

“Engage Comms has supported our organisation for more than ten years now and we absolutely see the team as an extension of our own in-house marketing function. As our organisation has grown into what is now a global provider of skills solutions, our marketing support requirements have evolved and accelerated and Engage Comms has guided us through implementing a new marketing strategy as well as the process of building an in-house team, that is fit for the future.”

Graham Hasting-Evans, Chief Executive - NOCN Group

“It was a big step for my business partner and I to bite the bullet and launch our own talent research consultancy but with Engage Comms' support we were able to hit the ground running with a professional, engaging and impactful brand and online presence which laid the foundations for sustainable growth and success. From day one of launching, we had the platform and collateral to find and win new business with a clear and coherent proposition which cut through the jargon so commonly found in our sector and set us apart from competitors. From case studies, blogs and media coverage, to being shortlisted for a start-up award and launching our own podcast, investing in expert marketing comms from the outset has been invaluable to us and made our first year in business much less of a challenge than it could otherwise have been. The best marketing team we've ever worked with!”

Natalie Douglass, Founding Director - Luminos Insight

“Bringing Engage Comms on board was the best decision we could have made and they are now a core part of our team. They have got fully under the skin of our sector and membership and are able to give us strategic advice that allows us to keep evolving and adapting to make us relevant and 'future fit'.”

Bob Winnington, CEO - Money Advice Liaison Group (MALG)

“Engage Comms carried out in-depth research into our online presence, audiences, and marketplace to inform the development of a social media strategy which, in the first quarter of being implemented, made a significant and positive difference to the visibility of our brand and number of relevant new business enquiries. I can already confidently say that our business is operating on a whole new level and the only thing we have done differently is appoint Engage Comms!”

Alistair Wright, Managing Director - UX Global

“Engage Comms helped to professionalise the Harrogate Steel brand and position us as a credible player in our marketplace. The content they created, including eye-catching branded graphics, blogs, and high quality video, made us stand out and brought to life what we did in a memorable and engaging way. They enabled us to take the business to the next level and realise our ambitious plans and we saw them as a trusted partner.”

Richard Searle, Commercial Director and Co-Owner - Harrogate Steel

“The event was fantastic and, especially considering the timeframe, we couldn't have done it without Engage Comms' help. We felt very proud to be the organisation convening such a panel of experts with such a diversity of perspectives to raise important issues at a critical time for those in debt and poverty. We got a strong set of questions from the audience, which I always think speaks volumes about the quality of the content of the event. Engage Comms' expertise on promotion and social coverage ensured we got good reach beyond the presence at the events themselves and we've benefited from making new connections with the panelists they pulled out all the stops to secure, who I think will bring a lot to us in future.”

Rachel Gregory, Senior External Affairs Manager - Christians Against Poverty

“Engage Comms used their in-depth debt sector experience to carry out a comprehensive brand communications exercise to not only create an updated visual identity for Registry Trust, but also to articulate our key proposition and messages. They then worked as an extension of our team providing us with weekly 'agenda tracking reports', developing thought leadership blog content, and strategically managing our social media and e-newsletter campaigns to keep us 'front of mind' with key audiences. I would highly recommend working with them on strategic marketing communications.”

Lex Jones, CEO - Registry Trust (the not-for-profit organisation which maintains the Register of Judgments, Orders and Fines)

“Since we first started working with Engage Comms back in 2013, they have been instrumental in helping us to develop and implement a long-term communications strategy that has complemented and supported our work to change common perceptions held about the debt collection sector. We would highly recommend Helen and the team.”

Colleen Peel, Head of Marketing & Events - Credit Services Association (UK trade body for the debt collection sector)

“Engage Comms used their debt industry knowledge and relationships to bring our first stakeholder event to life and significantly increase its impact. As a result, we strengthened our partnerships, built new relationships, increased brand awareness and reach, and discussed tangible solutions to the barriers we and our sector stakeholders face. Engage were excellent from the very first interaction and were aligned with our organisational values and goals. We look forward to work with them again in the future.”

Maysam Rizvi, CEO - Elifinty

“The engaging, creative content that Engage Comms create and share on our behalf has helped us to stand out from our competitors, tap into new markets, and stay ‘front of mind’ with past and existing customers in a tough marketplace and turbulent political and economic environment. The fact that they are able to come up with new things to say that resonate with our target audiences in a non-salesy way has positioned us as a reputable company and trusted partner rather than just another supplier”

Khurram Iqbal, Managing Director - Nova Tissue

“We approached Engage Comms after hearing about the excellent work they had done with other membership organisations in similar sectors to ours. They recommended a strategic, insight-based approach which involved the development of a brand communications strategy to inform both our new website and a programme of ongoing membership marketing to make us fit-for-the-future and enable us to fulfil our growth potential. We are very pleased with the new website and are now working with them on an ongoing basis to deliver everything from dissemination of consultation responses to promotion of our annual conference. The great work they are doing is having a real impact on our profile and member engagement and we would highly recommend them to other industry associations.”
