Creative Marketing Excellence in Dorset

Last week we were contacted by a potential new client in London to pitch for some new business. They called us on Wednesday and wanted fully developed marketing proposal by the following Monday. We needed a top drawer illustrator for the work and through our creative network found a guy called Doug Telford http://dougtelfordconceptualdesign.com/. It transpired that for the last 5 years this guy has lived down the road from me and I had been unaware of this amazing talent on my doorstep. Running a marketing agency in Dorset is a real pleasure when you find talent like this. Like-minded people moving from the smoke to have a better quality of life but still switched on to what quality creative marketing really means. City agency, country agency neither geographical location is better than the other, it always comes down to the real creative marketing talents behind the company. In setting up Tandem Marketing in Dorset we only work with excellent creative marketing talent and people who will deliver beyond the client's expectations. We are delighted to have found Doug and are constantly on the look out for like-minded creative talent. If you are interested in working with us as part of our collective please get in touch and show us your work info@tandem-marketing.co.uk

Want to Join the Tandem Marketing Foodie Panel?

It’s an interesting time at the moment in the marketing world. Multiple communication platforms coupled with complex consumer purchasing decisions. This week the government announced that we are out of the Recession but how will this affect general consumer confidence and buying habits. In these tricky times with brands fighting for consumer attention there’s one sure way to guarantee consumer engagement. Get to know your customers, in details and better than your competitors. It’s incredible the amount of companies who still don’t know and understand their customers. At Tandem Marketing we work with our clients to create target consumer profiles so that we understand their motivations, dreams and what really makes them tick. Only when we have done this can we start developing messages and analysing the best communication platforms for these. In order to increase the understanding of our sectors we have also started creating consumer panels for our specialist areas - food and arts marketing. So if you are a keen consumer of the arts or food and are interested in being part of a marketing research panel we’d love to hear from you. Simply drop us an email with your contact details and we’ll let you know what the role’s all about info@tandem-marketing.co.uk
