We’re impressed that Serotonin consistently demonstrates their expertise in the dynamic world of digital branding. They’re adept at transforming both large international brands and niche players into market leaders.

According to our surveys, collaborating with this team is a rewarding experience. They approach challenges with tenacity and transparency, fostering meaningful partnerships with clients and collaborators.

Additionally, the founders of Serotonin are at the pinnacle of their field. One standout for us is Clair Heaviside, who was awarded Business Woman of The Year 2023 and Telegraph & Natwest Female Entrepreneur To Watch 2022.

We’re also pleased to share that this team is quick to respond when we contacted them with a simple inquiry.

However, we think that their shorter operating hours on weekdays might not be ideal for everyone—especially since other agencies have longer operating hours. Nonetheless, their proximity to the city centre remains a significant advantage, ensuring ease of access.

Top of their game

“Fantastic business worked with Serotonin B2B and with individual team. Absolutely fantastic bunch who know their stuff. Whether you are a big international brand or a niche player I would highly recommend having a conversation with them, the founders are at the top of their game and it’s no surprise they have built such a strong team.”

Add People has grown significantly since 2002, now boasting a team of 221 experts driving online traffic for thousands of businesses worldwide. 

We also noted that their partnerships with industry giants like Google, Facebook, Microsoft, and American Express speak volumes about their capabilities.

They handle everything from Google Ads campaigns to social media management with finesse. We learned that Sam Gleave, one of their standout team members, has been instrumental in improving the online presence of many of their clients.

Furthermore, we think that their Account Manager Rahman also deserves a mention for his exceptional communication skills. As their clients shared, he makes the entire process hassle-free, always ready to jump on a call, no matter the issue. 

However, not everyone shares this sentiment. Sadly, we received several reports of unmet promises, which is something to consider. Despite this, their overall performance and strategic approach make them a top contender in digital marketing.

Good results

“Exceptional Service and Results! We’ve been working with Add People to manage our Google Ads campaigns, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results. Sam Gleave, our point of contact, has been absolutely fantastic. His expertise and dedication have significantly improved our online presence and brought in a substantial increase in qualified leads.”

Hassle-free

Dark Horse, established in 2020, boasts a young but highly creative team. We learned that they’re known for being a no-nonsense agency, delivering results without the fluff.

We’re also pleased that despite being a small company, they aim to make a big impact, with an ambitious goal of planting 100,000 trees — covering an area bigger than Manchester Airport.

According to our research, their approach to digital marketing is both creative and data-driven. They constantly monitor and adjust campaigns to ensure maximum efficiency and return on ad spend (ROAS).

Furthermore, one client also shared that they’re good with communication. According to them, the team provides regular detailed reports and insights that keep clients in the loop.

However, their services come at a premium. Some clients might find them a bit expensive, but we think that the results often justify the cost. 

Great creative insights

“Dark Horse constantly monitor and adjusted our campaigns to ensure maximum efficiency and ROAS, and they always kept us in the loop with regular detailed reports and insights. Their creative and data-driven strategies have truly helped transformed our digital marketing efforts and strategy.”

One Day Agency adds value to brands by bridging the gap between creative, digital, and media. We assessed their portfolio and we’re pleased with their thought-provoking works.

They’re headquartered in Manchester. But we learned that they also have a presence in London and Warsaw — running campaigns across all major markets.

Their team possesses a wealth of knowledge and expertise in marketing and advertising. As shared by one of their clients during our interviews,  working with this team was a pleasure.

They further mentioned that the agency involved the clients in creating unique content. For us, this makes the process enjoyable by encouraging different angles and unique views.

Furthermore, communication with the agency is also seamless. They were responsive, attentive, and always willing to address any questions or concerns when we reached out to them.

Just keep in mind that they charge higher compared to other providers. Despite this, we think that their overall performance and strategic approach make them a top choice in the industry.

Truly remarkable

“I had the pleasure of experiencing exceptional service at One Day Agency. Every member of their team exudes professionalism and goes above and beyond to provide assistance. Their knowledge and expertise in both digital marketing and out-of-home media are truly remarkable.”

Scott Barrett, Google Review

Seamless

“The team at One Day Agency possesses a wealth of knowledge and expertise in the field of marketing and advertising. Their creativity and innovative approach set them apart from other marketing companies I’ve worked with in the past. I had been contacted to create some content for one of their client’s activations that they had created, it was good fun,  trying to come up with different angles and unique views for this project. Communication with the team was seamless throughout the entire process.”

Social Republic excels at constantly evolving and finding innovative ways to reach potential customers. We reviewed their previous work and were impressed by how they tailored their approach to each client’s needs.

As official partners of major social media platforms like Meta, Pinterest, and LinkedIn, they have a significant edge in the market. We’re also pleased with their client list, including NHS, Disney Home, and eBay.

For us, this demonstrates their ability to handle big accounts. Although, we think that they may not be ideal for smaller businesses as their focus is on big campaigns.

When we conducted surveys, their clients mentioned that working with Social Republic has been a game-changer for their business. They added that the team took the time to understand the industry and made valuable recommendations to optimise social media presence. 

Accessibility is another strength, with their 24-hour availability and central city location. We believe that they’re perfect for clients who prefer to stay in constant touch. 

Hugely impressed

“We starting working with Social Republic last year when our business started and have been hugely impressed with the results. The team got to understand our business and industry, and make recommendations on how to get the most out of social media. Our Google and Facebook campaigns have been imperative to our growth and we continue to re-invest each month, bringing in new customers.”

Grew our campaigns
