Digital marketing agency on expansion drive

A digital marketing agency has announced plans to expand its team and triple its client base as it heads towards its second year in business.

Based in Bromsgrove’s Harris Business Park, Sherbet Donkey Media specialises in website design and development, branding, and SEO, serving clients across the UK.

Launched in June 2021, Sherbet Donkey has grown from three members of staff to a team of 36 SEO, design, development, and content specialists.

Last month it welcomed a further four new starters across its content, PR, and business development departments.

The latest recruits follow notable additions to the agency’s leadership team, including operations director Andy Herbert, and Kate Farrell, who joined the team as head of design.

“I’ve joined Sherbet at a truly exciting time for the business. This is an organisation that’s taken huge leaps and has achieved incredible results in less than two years. There’s a lot of work going on in the background at Sherbet Donkey – the leadership team has dedicated itself to implementing new benefits for our staff, improving our processes, and redefining our own offering, and these positive moves will continue throughout 2023. I’m excited to be part of the team and part of the next phase of Sherbet Donkey’s growth.” Herbert said.

Farrell added: “Having worked with Sherbet Donkey as a freelance designer for several months, I was delighted to join the agency full time in December, with the sole focus of enhancing our bespoke web design services. Sherbet Donkey is already a leader in the digital marketing space, and my goal is to add even more experience to the agency’s talented design team and enhance our design processes to produce innovative work for our clients.”

Despite this influx of new starters, the agency is still recruiting at its Worcestershire headquarters.

Sherbet Donkey plans to expand to 45 members of staff within the next eight months and plans to surpass £3m in SEO clients before the end of the year.
