Humanising digital marketing

Above all else… we give a sh*t

We set out to change the way businesses do digital.

Fed up of being told to just ‘keep clients quiet’ we built an agency that goes beyond expectations.

Where digital is more human. Where clients are educated. Where a team of experts delivers work they are proud of.

In an environment where everyone can learn, play, and grow.

Home / About Us

Transforming clients’ results beyond expectations

We believe that there is nothing people can’t achieve if they are driven enough and get the right help.

Our mission is for clients to say: “Thank you for helping me achieve things I didn’t think were possible”.

We help businesses climb their own mountains

Our MD, Tom, met Bouchra Baibanou whilst climbing mount Toubkal, Morocco. She wanted to be the first Moroccan lady to climb the Seven Summits. At the time, we were a small agency, but we persevered and sponsored her. Shortly afterwards, she completed her seventh mountain… Everest.

Her determination, and our desire to help her reach her goal, symbolises our relationship with clients and colleagues. Helping people succeed in fulfilling (and exceeding) their ambitions by climbing their own mountains is our agency’s mission.

Our vision is to humanise digital

25 years of SEO, paid media, conversion, and analytics technical excellence has taught us that success online comes from:

  • Being human,
  • Joining the dots,
  • Technical excellence,
  • Everyone understanding digital better,
  • Enthusiasm.

That is why our vision is to humanise digital. We join the dots, we educate our clients in everything that we do, and above all else…we give a sh*t.

Revolutionising the way businesses do digital

We aim to change the digital marketing industry, one client at a time.

We know that if everyone understood digital in the way we do that businesses would make better decisions and achieve their goals.

Our team empowers businesses to make the right marketing decisions by replacing gut feel with real data.

Where everyone can learn, play, and grow

Footprint Digital has been 25 years in the making. We have engineered the agency to deliver.

We knew then that we had to create an environment where talented people would be supported to learn, play and grow.

Our ethos is to build a team that says: “I am proud of my job and I am supported to do the best work of my career”.

So that our clients say: “Thank you for helping me achieve things I didn’t think were possible.”
