Aardvark Marketing help businesses get better results from their sales & marketing activities. Unlike most marketing agencies, we work as outsourced marketing specialists, so you have access to skilled expertise as and when you need it.

If you’re looking for a significant improvement in results from your sales and marketing, finding the right long-term strategy is a critical first step. 

Turning that strategy into a robust short term plan then allows you to implement in a controlled and measurable manner, confident that each element of the plan is on strategy and making an important contribution.

This results in more customers, more sales and most importantly, more profit, without the need to pay a full time member of staff.

Our marketing advice is geared to developing effective, measurable and affordable marketing strategies that fit with your objectives.

Ensuring your business survives and thrives.  We define a clear picture of where you are now, and where you want to be.

The strategy we provide is the route of how you’ll get there. The tactics are the activities you’ll do along the way.

• We adapt the tried and tested tools of “big business marketing” to the small and medium-size business environment.
• We’ve worked with more than 250 organisations in many industries and use 70 proven marketing tools, systems and processes.
• Only 20% of SME’s have a marketing plan; every Aardvark client uses their plan. This means that our clients have control over their marketing: what to do, how to do it, when to do it and they know the Return on investment (ROI) that it delivers.
• We keep you ahead of your competitors by investing 10% of our annual turnover in R&D, increasing our knowledge and developing new systems.
• 90% of our work is for retained clients, building marketing campaigns around a long-term success strategy for profitable growth.

Whatever you need to know about your business, we find it out.

What do your customers really think?

Why do they buy from you?

What would make them buy more?

Are there gaps in the market you could fill?

What are your competitors doing? 

All our market research methods give you hard information that can make a real difference.

Research is what we do – insight is what you get. 

Insight that enables you to make good strategic decisions based on solid understanding.

Research now helps you reduce risk later by ensuring your proposition, advertising or marketing claims are right from the start.
