We’re part of the largest digital agency group in the UK.

We’ve grown through being good at what we do.

We draw upon the expertise and resources of four divisionsUnder a single management structure.

Doing smart things with data.

• Help clients make sense of, and derive monetary value from, their data

• Use advanced statistical techniques to increase customer understanding

• Define and optimise the next customer or prospect action, or portfolio decision

• Assist clients in executing these decisions, even in real time

• Believe in helping clients solve problems or meet challenges, rather than pushing product

• Operate across marketing, credit and fraud environments.

A research agency designed for the digital age.

• Data is great but it can’t tell you why or why not, that’s where great research comes into its own

• Use digital and offline methods, and the two in combination, to increase client knowledge of how their customers think, what motivates them to behave as they do

• Equally skilled in qualitative and quantitative techniques

• Add value drawn from rubbing shoulders everyday with techies, developers, digital strategists and communication planners

• Everything they do starts with insight and ends with action.

Customer retention for AXA PPP HealthcareAn online retention programme targeting

customers about to lapse. We developed the ‘Step Up Challenge’, a virtual walk along

Hadrian’s Wall, reflecting AXA’s philosophy that healthcare is also about healthy living not just

providing health cover.

Participants received weekly emails that encouraged them, explained the health benefits

of their efforts, plus healthy recipes, advice on how to increase their daily steps and free AXA services such as the online health centre. On

completion, a congratulatory email and a personalised certificate marked their efforts.

times, using exotic walks such as Machu Picchu.
