As a small business we're a family, and we know each other pretty well. 

We love to be silly sometimes, it helps our creative process, we especially like cracking hilarious jokes. (Well - we think they're hilarious.)

Ice Cream!

We care about our staff. If issues arise, we are always there to help and we know how important it is to have time off to relax and spend time with loved ones.

We LOVE our jobs at React Marketing. We are all very passionate about our work & our clients. We certainly don’t need to drag ourselves out of bed in the morning!

Office

We always work ridiculously hard! Our rewards come from seeing results, and getting good feedback from our clients.

We are honest with you, we won't lie to you, and we love it when our clients are completely honest with us!

Yarmouth

We love finding new talent. We support students and new graduates by offering paid internships with the opportunity to integrate themselves into our business, and work on real accounts.

We take the time to teach them the skills they need, and in return, we benefit from the fresh ideas that they bring to the table.

We provide our clients with a platform that enables them to tell the world how amazing their business is.

We facilitate the process of communication, rather than owning it. The client knows their business, and we know how to help them promote it.

We focus on providing the right tools to get great exposure & growth.

We love new ideas and are always looking for new ways to increase our clients profile.

We are social media geeks. It’s a great way to get your information out there and communicate with your industry and clients

Our relationships with our clients are the most important part of our business. We think a strong relationship = a better marketing campaign!

We offer a personal service. We are a relatively small agency, which means you’re always going to know who you’re talking to, and we will always know what’s going on with every client.

Our door is always open and we love having visitors! As avid tea lovers, the kettle is always on, and if you let us know you’re coming - we will even bake!

One of our favorite things to do is brainstorm with clients. We love it when our creativity combines with your knowledge of your business. This is what great ideas are made of.

Latest news from React Marketing

React Marketing secure Ricky Martin (Apprentice winner, not Latin singer) as the face of the Catalyst Centre.

22nd October
React Marketing secure Ricky Martin (Apprentice winner, not Latin singer) as the face of the Catalyst Centre.

Our client came to us with an idea that would give science and technology startups in the South of England a fighting chance in the industry. Our job was to come up with a plan to grab people's attention. Now we don’t believe in just asking any old celebrity to support a campaign. It has to be relevant, and it must be someone who can attract the kind of people you want to target. So to capture the interest of people starting a business, and the media in the science and technology industries, who better than apprentice winner 2012, Ricky Martin; Biochemistry graduate and Lord Sugar's business partner in a science recruitment venture! We’re pretty pleased that Ricky agrees that this is a great initiative, and that he is willing to give up his time to come down to the Science Park and support us. (Our clients are pretty happy too!) Watch this space! Ricky will be heading to the Park on the 19th of November! Read more »

But sometimes you can’t beat a bit of champagne and partying...

We’re back in the office after a week in Monaco, nursing our blistered feet after a brilliant yacht show. The last week has consisted of sifting through emails; a never ending task, and catching up with the contacts we made at this years show. We wanted to take a second to reflect on our week in the sun (obviously working very hard), and how as a Marketing agency, being seen in the right places is one of the most important things you can do.

PR - It's not all about champagne and parties!

PR - It's not all about champagne and parties!

Ab Fab (much as we love it) did us PR people no favours – the most common misconception made about us is that we spend our lives trotting round in ridiculously high heels, quaffing champagne, and massaging the egos of our celebrity clients. For about 0000.1% of PR professionals, this is the case, but the rest of us spend more time hunched in front of a computer, trying to inject a bit of magic into (often) dull subjects, than we ever do hobnobbing with the stars.

Monaco Yacht Show 2012

Pretty much our favourite show of the year. I know our blog said PR isn't all about champagne and parties, but a bit of it is! We love to get out there once a year and get amongst it all, finding out what’s hot and what’s not in the industry, and planning how to get our clients in the best position possible. Again, we will be the ones wandering around in red and white (maintaining brand identity – first rule of smart marketing!).

Public Relations

The React Marketing team are passionate about good PR. We know how damaging bad press can be, and how important it is to check, check and double check your work! We can take control of the complete PR mix for you, both print and online, internal and external, to ensure the best results for your business.

React's professional team will work closely with you to make sure written materials are on-topic, suitable for your audience, and imbued with wordsmithering brilliance. Whether it’s a technical B2B news announcement, or an update of the progress of a superyacht fit-out, you can rest assured that it will be well written, all the facts will have been checked, and that it will be distributed to the correct people to ensure optimum coverage. We have contacts in the media spanning Europe and North America in our specialist sectors.

Case Study: International LCD Manufacturer in the Marine Industry 

Challenge:

Our client's brand focuses on quality and longevity, but this wasn't being represented in their PR. They needed to be seen as the go-to guys for the best monitors in the business.

Solution:

We understand the importance of social media as part of a PR strategy, we know how vital it is to get your product seen by the right people, and we have been working in this industry long enough to know who the right people are! We ensured that a carefully targeted campaign got their products on the right websites, and in the right magazines gaining them global coverage.

Results:

The word on the street is that our client is probably the best provider of high quality monitors around. We have successfully waved their products under the nose of some of the top magazines in the industry, and have established a social media presence which is being followed by everyone who is anyone in the industry. As they operate in an industry we know very well, we are able to make sure that their brand image is suitable for that market, whilst our eagle eyed team ensured that their brand aesthetic was consistent throughout. 

Newsletters

Newsletters are essential to any company, they keep your customers up to date with where you are, and how well you’re doing! A well written newsletter can make all the difference in your external communications, and ensuring that it fits in with your brand aesthetic is something we excel at.

A poorly written newsletter, like social media, could cause more damage than its worth. Thats why we have an editing system that ensures as few mistakes as humanly possible (We are only 99.9% perfect). Whether online as an e-news or in print, we make sure you have a professional newsletter to send out.

Creative and Digital 

We offer a full range of Creative and Digital services. From web design, online adverts, email newsletters, digital/print brochures, adverts, exhibition design, graphic design, to newsletters and more. Pretty much anything creative we can do! 

Case Study: An Innovative Coaching Company 

The challenge:

Our client wanted their passion and enthusiasm for learning to be reflected in their PR and Marketing strategy. They initially needed design work for an exhibition, and were so impressed by the funky concept we delivered, that we’re now designing a brand new website for them, as well as working strategically to guide them through the minefields of PR and social media. 

Solution:

We created a unique design for them to take to a leading exhibition; coming up with a concept that engaged passers-by and made them stand out from other companies. After a hugely successful exhibition, they realised how influential great marketing and PR can be in getting them new business, and we are in the process of building their new website, helping them achieve coverage for an upcoming awards ceremony.

Results:

This client works with some of the biggest blue chip companies in England, and has a great attitude which perfectly matches their accomplishments. This needed to be reflected in all their external communications, and we made sure they were giving a consistent message to their clients about how innovative and different they are, whilst highlighting their professionalism and enthusiasm for a healthy working environment. These guys let us get really creative and come up with a really unique campaign.

Social Media

Whether it’s twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn, all social media needs to be controlled properly or it can do more harm than good.

Social media for business is becoming the rule rather than the exception. An online presence gives organisations the opportunity to engage directly with their target markets in real time, and to boost their credibility by being seen to be listening to and acting upon customer feedback. It's essential to have a well thought out, properly implemented social media strategy before unleashing yourself on the world-wide-web. And we know exactly how to do this! Our track record shows that social media is not only a great way to interact with your clientele, but also a way to get your latest news out to the media. We will set up all social media platforms, and make sure they are fully branded. We do our research, and make sure we are connecting with the people you know, and the people you want to know!

Case Study: Launch of an Initiative 

The challenge:

One of our client's wanted to help high-tech budding entrepreneurs get off the ground, and decided that a start up accelerator would be the best way to do it. We completely agreed! The initiative they have developed gives people a chance to make great business ideas a reality, and our brief was to get this message across. They needed local, national and international press coverage, access to student forums, and as much social media activity as possible to make them stand out from the crowd 

Solution:

We built a fantastic website (if we do say so ourselves) to explain exactly what their idea was all about, and packed it with snappy, informative content that got straight to the point. To achieve maximum exposure we developed an integrated PR and social media campaign, which worked exactly as we anticipated, right from Day 1. We know how influential celebrity endorsement can be, therefore we secured Ricky Martin (winner of the apprentice 2012) as the face of the launch - making sure this opportunity was optimised to achieve great coverage. Our social media campaign also received celebrity endorsement, (by another apprentice star) increasing traffic to the website to 600 clicks in just one hour. 

Results:

A brilliant campaign that has been well received by start-up media, not just in the UK, but world wide. We created a buzz in all the right places, which included local universities and businesses and got a lot of people talking about it on twitter and online. 

Events

Everyone knows we at React love a good party or two, and for many years we have been involved in hosting several exclusive events in our specialist industries.

We use our creativity, experience, and contacts in the industry to ensure our clients host the most talked about event of the year. From intimate functions to large industry parties, our excellent project management skills enable us to take away the stress of organisation, and allow you to turn up on the day, and enjoy your event. 

Consultancy

Do you have an idea as to how you would like to market your company, but aren’t quite sure how to implement it? We provide a consultancy service to help you a variety of PR and Marketing services.

Ad-hoc

We will meet with you, discuss your current strategy, and advise you on ways your in-house team can work together to market your company to the best of your ability. This includes crash courses in writing an effective press release, using social media to effectively market your company, an inside scoop on the best places to go and people to meet to market your business. We can answer any other questions you may have – although we never divulge the secret cake recipe!

Retainer

We can also represent you as an extension of your business, effectivly becoming your marketing department. This begins with complete understanding of the your situation, objectives, and constraints. We then represent you quietly and confidentially, liasing with you and helping you bring your business into the eyes of the people that matter. 


Case Study: International Marine Interior Outfitter

Challenge:

This client has a vast wealth of experience in their industry, and their business revolves around delivering the best service and the best quality on a global scale. They wanted this to be reflected in all of their communications, both internal and external, for two areas of their brand. They had a brilliant reputation within their industry, but as they expanded, they needed a platform to communicate this!

Solution:

Working closely with the team, we deliver an ongoing strategy for every aspect of their communications. This involves getting their stories into crucial publications, making sure they are seen in the right places, and that their presence in the industry is felt. We do everything, from internal newsletters, to case studies, to organising photo shoots and events at all the major industry shows. 

Results:

We've got people talking about them, and how brilliant they are at  what they do! As a full service client, we make sure we are always available for them; doing anything from designing their new website to coming up with snappy ideas for their new t-shirts! Here’s just a few of the ways that we do it...
