Make Agency celebrates record growth
After a record breaking 122% growth in 2022, London-based digital agency Make is expanding its business and celebrating 7 new hires and a suite of client wins and renewals.
In the past quarter, they have won contracts from brands including Knight Frank and CBRE. The agency, specialising in web design and build, social media, digital marketing, and creative content, will be working with the property giants on the Yards, a shopping, dining, and wellness destination in the heart of Covent Garden.
Other recent wins include renewals with brands including Envision Racing. Founding members of Formula-E, the world’s first all-electric international single-seater championship, the Envision team will be working with Make to define how they can engage with fans through the creation of a new digital platform.
Make has also re-signed with Mollie’s Motel and Diner, a roadside hotel in Oxfordshire, designed by Soho House. Mollie’s was recently announced at the Catey Awards 2022 as winner of the ‘Best Use of Technology Award’, following Make’s close work across the brand’s tech since 2020.
To support this meteoric growth they are also welcoming new incoming staff across digital, social, paid media and creative.
Founded by Directors Tom Witcherly and Anthony Purkiss in 2014, the pair has built the business from a two-person operation to an agency of 39, launching a total of 353 websites and working on 1,590 campaigns, since their inception. They pride themselves on nurturing a young, creative and tight-knit team of professionals, and remain close friends, with Anthony acting as best man at Tom’s wedding.
Speaking on the agency’s recent success, Tom said: “After a record-breaking quarter and some very exciting client wins and renewals, we’re ramping up resources across the board so that we can continue to achieve industry-leading results. We know that having the strongest people in our team helps to drive our success. In adding new talent to the agency, we’re looking forward to seeing new big ideas on our accounts, and even more fresh, innovative thinking.”
Make’s new staff include studio manager Jessica Annadale, who joins with over ten years of experience in the creative industries.
She said: “It feels like an exciting time to be joining Make and I’m really looking forward to the opportunity to put my own stamp on the role. I hope I’ll be able to make a positive difference and help to maintain the fun vibe I’ve seen around the office.”
Darren Sweetland, Managing Director of Make client, Mollie’s Motel & Diner said: “Mollie’s have been working in partnership with Make Agency for the past 18 months, and in that time have been responsible for all elements of our digital marketing including web, social, creative and paid advertising.
“Make’s can-do attitude and diverse creative marketing ability mean they are able to add value to our business across multiple digital functions. Since working together we have seen a steady growth in our marketing results, social engagement, and overall brand visibility. I would recommend Make to any growing brand looking for a reliable marketing partner.”
