A fun team effort - SearchUp
So it is June and I embark on a new consulting adventure. For what seem a pleasurable number of eons I have worked as a Fellow at Lancaster University Management School. And now I am working two days a week as a Director helping grow a superb* Search Marketing Agency in Staffordshire** called SearchUp.
* You have to be able to use a superlative once in copy writing. Ahem. And it is true. Read below.
** After all I come from Cheshire, and nothing better than working near the “Mothership”.
So what and why SearchUp?
I have known for while a very nice and ethical chap called Terry McCusker, who also introduced me to the lovely Craig Griffiths who original set up SearchUp. The agency is about SEARCH and the delivery of sales return for clients, with comprehensive tracking and reporting, whilst utilising creative effectively and testing thereof. The agency has found a niche with small to medium size businesses and people who want good Search results meeting their company metrics, who cannot necessarily deliver this in house, or receive the like from larger Search led agencies. It is a style that works. This attracted me.
But what other things attracted me to SearchUp?
Honesty, integrity, and a delight in working with similar minded people and clients. Terry, Craig, and I believe in working with good people; yes they are running businesses are we do, but treat people nicely, run ethical operations, and believe in growth of a business and the people within and without. Cheesy, and copy written? Yes, but it is true. We only really want to work with nice people, with everyone in mutually beneficial relationships, where all and sundry make a bit of money and are happy.
SearchUp are damn good at the back end data, allowing clients to marry sales and business metrics with digital spend, i.e. Search (but we do other stuff - wink, wink.)
Get in Touch
Yes, this is the elevator pitch bit. We offer a range of charging models including revenue share, and rolling monthly contracts for example. Established clients have been retained for years, and new ones happy; bear in mind we choose who we can work with. Feel free to come and cuddle us, and we also like donuts.
