Flame Digital goes mobile

CREATIVE agency Flame Digital has taken on mobile industry veteran Jon Beverley to launch a mobile marketing division.

Flame Mobile will offer clients a range of mobile services across all mobile channels, in addition to consulting, creative, mobile SEO, planning and buying.

Mr Beverley was previously the chief executive of mobile company Scan Mobile and has 11 years experience in the mobile sector. He has delivered mobile products for companies such as Argos, Telecom NZ and Barclays Bank.

Simon Edwards, managing director of Manchester-based Flame, said: “The launch of Flame Mobile will allow us to provide an even better service to our clients and help them take advantage of the huge opportunities the mobile platform provides.

“Jon’s attitude and experience fit perfectly with Flame’s ethos – it’s all about compelling customer interactions, and getting the message right. Our clients are increasingly asking us about using mobile channels, and we believe that the time is right to launch a dedicated mobile offering.”
