OUR CURREnt CLIEntS
www.seriousideas.com© Serious Marketing Communications Ltd.
1 We make you money. Last year, our clients’ Return on Investment amounted to a whopping £2,000,000 by using us and us alone. Almost enough to buy a bungalow in Weybridge!
2 We never ever wear bow ties. (except at awards ceremonies)
3 Our rate card is at least 10% cheaper than the industry standard. So you get brilliant work at a super-terrific price.
4 Great relationships with suppliers means we get really good prices. Do we keep them to ourselves? Absolutely not. We pass them on to you. Canny buying saved clients over £250,000 in 2008.
5 Genuinely, we work our socks off for you.
6 We’ve saved some clients over £80,000 in VAT alone this year.
7 All of our marketing campaigns have been delivered on time and to budget.
8 We grow moustaches in November to raise money for charity.
9 All of our product launches have been successful.
10 We deliver phenomenal results: £1.5 million in additional sales for one client. 268% uplift in response for another. The list goes on.
10½ We wanted to get a company pet – preferably a budgie but our landlord wouldn’t let us.

“Thanks for the tight turn around and still delivering great work. Impressive and it stands you out from the rest.”
3 mObILE “We have found SERIOUS Ideas a real gem of an agency to work with and are the first agency in 8 years to be retained and added to our agency portfolio. Their ideas, talent and experience in retail and promotions have helped us increase our sales figures over and above our own targets. My best advice to anyone wanting to work with them is to try them out - you should get a very refreshing and rewarding experience working with them.”
We don’t need to blow our own trumpet.
Our clients do it for us.

VERtEXSERIOUS ideas were one of 4 agencies we approached for a big re-brand project. They came out as a clear runner, going beyond the call of duty to ensure everything was finished to a high standard and within budget and on time. SERIOUS work in an integrated way with our team to ensure the best end results and are also a fun (but ‘SERIOUS’) company to work with!”.
FORStERS“SERIOUS did a brilliant job on our graduate recruitment project. They invested time and energy to understand our needs, were creative and very responsive. The brochure stood out from the crowd and is helping us to attract a good number of high-calibre applicants”.
