Guaranteeing you a positive first step towards creating something great together.

We work across both B2C & B2B marketing, either separately or clarifying the message across a company’s outreach to both target markets. We help strategise and create consistent brand content to help support B2B teams in converting new clients.

We adapt our process according to your needs and what will ultimately bring you the best results. Below is an outline of the type of plan you can expect.

  • Defining the campaign goals and objectives
  • Conducting market research
  • Developing a target audience persona
  • Choosing marketing channels
  • Creating a content plan
  • Designing the campaign
  • Launching and tracking the campaign
  • Analysing and optimising

We can work as an extension to any in-house team and we do exactly this with many of our clients. We have previously been brought in to support marketing, creative and development teams with our expertise or to handle the overflow of work. We also work with in-house teams to equip them with the tools to implement their long-term goals.

You will work directly with Alistair, the Founder and Strategic Director with 25+ years experience. Alistair brings in his team of marketing and creative experts to support you and achieve the best results. The team is there to work with you all the way.

We don’t lock our clients into long contracts, we just ask for the time to implement the services effectively and generate results. We only ask that you give us a month’s notice or to finish off the project we are working on with you.

We work with clients and projects of all shapes and sizes and make sure we tailor our services to your budget. There is no minimum spend and we can work with you on an hourly rate if you just need occasional support.

Simply set up a call in my calendar or email alistair.bb@summerdaymedia.com to set up an introduction meeting with Alistair, to discuss your needs and the ways we can support you.
