Naked team don birthday suits to celebrate ten years in business
Rural Norfolk firm celebrates a decade of milestones including over £4m gross turnover.Naked Marketing is pleased to announce it is celebrating its tenth anniversary serving international and local clients from its offices in Hingham, Norfolk.
Despite a double-dip recession, since its inception in 2002 the full-service agency has doubled in size, appointed a Non-Executive Director, purchased its own business premises, and received various trade awards.
“We’re thrilled not only to be in business ten years on but to actually be thriving in spite of the current economic climate,” says Ben Handford, Managing Director and co-founder, Naked Marketing. “We remain as excited about each milestone as we were when we sent out our first ever invoice, and banked our first cheque – they’re now just bigger, like buying our own building, and working with some of the world’s biggest brands.”
The Norfolk-based team, including co-founder David Lloyd, Creative Director, provides marketing, advertising, branding, e-marketing, PR and more for brands such as Qantas™ Airlines, Weight Watchers®, Hello Kitty, and Mind, the mental health charity – as well as for several local businesses including Norfolk Country Cottages, Bryan Turner Kitchens and Hobbies. “We treat our customers equally regardless of the scope or scale of their project,” explains Ben. “We’re optimistic we’ll continue to grow this way, by living our ‘Naked’ philosophy: being transparent, honest and attentive in our business relationships, and maintaining our quality of work.”
Naked recently received the Business Partnership Award from Mind and were runners up at Hello Kitty’s design day annual awards. Naked were also delighted earlier this year when they were recognised as one of the first businesses in Norfolk to receive the Carbon Charter award.
