Advertising agency lands £200,000 of new business wins
Two new creative contracts, worth more than £200,000, are helping a West Midlands full-service advertising agency celebrate its 21st birthday in style.
M3, which was formed as a media planning and buying specialist by current CEO David Lawrence in 1999, has been appointed by Clarity Software and Oxford Plastics to develop new branding, corporate guidelines and support with ongoing marketing activity.
“This is a fantastic way to celebrate 21 years in business and comes during what is a significantly tough period for the marketing world,” said Nick Lovett, managing director of M3.
“Despite having to work remotely during large parts of the pandemic, our staff have gone above and beyond to continue to offer inspiring creative work and support for existing and new clients.”
He added: “The Oxford Plastics and Clarity Software contracts really bring out the best in what we do, helping companies to evaluate their brands and then coming up with a fresh corporate look that is then communicated widely via a mix of channels and media.
“We pride ourselves on delivering the best possible service to our clients, taking out the marketing jargon and providing creative solutions that have a positive impact on the bottom line. That’s why our customers stay with us, just like Formula One Autocentres and Merityre, who have been with us since day one.”
Oxford Plastics, which is a leading innovator and manufacturer of site safety, construction and roadworks equipment, is working with M3 to develop a new brand identity – the first change in its 35-year history.
It went live in November and was supported by a website redesign and a series of new collateral, including brochures, internal communications, hi-vis uniforms and branded clothing.
M3 will also be delivering two social media campaigns targeting schools and streetworks during Covid-19, while managing the ongoing SEO and maintenance.
The contract with management information software specialist Clarity Software started with an initial request to develop a new brand identity ahead of implementing an ongoing digital marketing strategy.
