We’re extremely pleased to announce that Freestyle Interactive won The Marketing Industry Network’s Midlands Company of the Year Award.
Against the tidal wave of industry-wide belt tightening and significant challenges, Freestyle’s bold moves into 2009 paid off. With a series of prestigious new client wins, growth in our existing client base and innovation in our service offer, we’ve had our most successful year ever.
Andy Wood, Strategy Director at Freestyle, said:
“I’m really proud of the whole agency! We've all had a hand in winning 6 major new accounts over the past 18 months (Massey Ferguson, TNT, City University, Thales, TRW and Lloyds TSB), while most importantly - losing none. I’m especially pleased with this achievement at such a challenging time commercially. Our secret is simple: we’re always working hard to keep the agency moving forward by challenging our staff to innovate and evolve our service offer. During 2009 we’ve developed a social media marketing, content production and online PR skill set, converting major new business in this area. I’m also especially pleased with our strategy, planning and creative departments, who’ve won ‘lead agency’ pitches developing brand and creative strategy across digital and offline work for the first time in Freestyle’s history. We’ve certainly got a lot to build on in 2010 and I’m really looking forward to working with our teams and clients to take things forward again.”
Straightforward, grown up digital strategy
No matter what the current buzzword in the marketing industry is, we
know that success for our clients lies in our ability to look beyond
the hype to sound digital strategic marketing solutions. Rather than
just persuade our clients to simply ‘spend’ on new strands of marketing
activity, or tick the Twitter box, we’ve taken them on a journey of
discovery that leads to solid return on investment.
