marketing clarity for service providers

|

We help busy service professionals make sense of their marketing so they can focus on what they do best.

👋 hello, we’re Clever Folk

And you are too.

Because if you’re reading this, you probably run a service business built on your skill, knowledge and expertise.

And when it comes to promoting your business, you might be thinking:

⏰ “I don’t have time.”

😵‍💫 “I’m overwhelmed by all the options.”

😞 “I don’t want to waste my money.”

We get it - we run service businesses too.

We’re also experienced marketers who’ve helped build some of the UK’s biggest brands - from Tesco to Topshop, and TalkTalk to Tandem.

We believe that businesses offering hands-on expertise and the personal touch will thrive in the age of AI.

We don’t do bloated retainers or long contracts.

We don’t sell snake oil or magic AI beans.

We do like clever folk.

If we sound like your kind of partner, let’s talk!
