When the financial crisis of 2007/8 hit, The Construction Marketing Group diversified into other industry sectors and Marketing Quotes was born.
The goal was to bring businesses together with industry experienced marketing experts. The internet is a big place and the difficulty of going through Yellow Pages pre internet is just as hard as comparing marketing companies, since there are tens of thousands in the UK to choose from.
Digital marketing was in it’s infancy in 2002 and there was no such thing as social media in any recognisable way.
David Blackburn, the founder of the umbrella business Positive Move, commented: “When we started back in 2002, there was no social media, there were no smart phones and fax machines were still being used, what a different world we live in now. But the problem still remains, finding the ‘right’ marketing company for your business. Do you go with the top agency on Google? Do you choose the most expensive agency? With marketing, you do not get what you pay for, the most expensive marketing company does not make them the best. Neither choosing the top result on Google.”
Marketing Quotes is a free service to help UK companies compare quotes from local marketing companies that know their industry sector.
We are pleased to have survived the financial crisis and the other challenges time has thrown at us, not forgetting COVID in 2020.
