Barnsley marketing firm Cream boosts turnover by 144% after major client wins
PR and marketing communications agency, Cream, is celebrating a number of new contract wins which has boosted turnover by an unprecedented 144%.
Since January, the Barnsley-based agency has more than doubled its client base with key contract wins including national recruitment software company, Tribepad, Barnsley’s Alhambra Shopping Centre, Yorkshire based Finance for Enterprise, Barnsley Council’s Tour De France PR and visitor attraction, Wentworth Castle Gardens.
The team has also grown, with numbers doubling from four to eight over the last six months, with a mixture of youth and experience servicing the company’s expanding client base.
Cream was founded in 2012, and has continuously outperformed targets. The upturn since the beginning of the year is a trend that seems set to continue.
Jane Whitham, Cream director and co-founder said: “We feel that optimism in the market is now translating to new business. PR is a cost effective marketing tool, and many companies are now ready to push ahead and invest in quality communication and brand building.”
Elizabeth Hudson, Cream director and co-founder, added: “Cream has enjoyed consistent growth since starting in 2012, going from a team of two to eight, and doubling the client roster in just six months.
“That growth is testament to the high quality service and support we offer all our clients – something which is fundamental to our agency and what keeps our client retention at impressively high levels.”
