Sharp Minds worked hard to build relationships on our behalf with journalists in target publications, with the net result that we now appear in almost every issue of one publication and have managed to get coverage in another that had previously blanked us. They think far beyond the brief, providing adaptable support and blue-sky thinking, creating the partnerships necessary for game-changing initiatives.

Sharp Minds delivered exactly what we wanted. They easily surpassed our expectations and built the brand and business of Enevate across the UK, through carefully targeted media outreach. Our first campaign together generated more than 18 articles and included several high-profile features, including The Sun newspaper. This has helped with our success this year and has put Enevate firmly on the map as a leading modular housing company in the UK.

We appointed Sharp Minds to help us, which they have done with superb branding and marketing advice, and the delivery of a media campaign which would be worthy of competitors a hundred times our size in terms of global manufacturers. It was thoroughly researched and expertly executed, including designing the report with easy-to-understand graphics to communicate the key narratives effectively. The results speak for themselves: high value, enormous productivity, enhanced brand awareness, increased sales and the intellectual property to leverage introductions to industry leaders, with whom we are now collaborating.

Refining our messaging and consistently layering more expert messages on the right platforms has led to us getting enquiries from larger providers with a greater number of care homes, which is exactly the kind of clients we want to attract. We are actively recruiting to deal with the volume of enquiries we have coming in.

Sharp Minds’ support enabled us to raise our profile with our target customers in a competitive marketplace, drive more traffic to our website and prompt more calls to our switchboard. They got our name into new places in a way that appeals to different audiences and leads to measurable results. They think beyond their immediate brief to look for every opening to support our business needs.

Sharp Minds helped support 55Plus’s business model to adapt and change as a direct result of rapid growth. The Sharp Minds team orchestrated a dramatic rebrand to help showcase our improved customer services initiatives and attract new clients, as well as implementing a mature marketing and communications strategy to have a more targeted and collaborative way of working with our clients/introducers and provide initiatives for feedback. Sharp Minds has excellent press and media contacts and achieved positive and helpful national coverage for us in a very short space of time. The Sharp Minds team was always on hand to help with difficulties and would work overtime to remove any bumps in the road.

“Sharp Minds’ combination of communication skills, understanding of social and environmental issues, strategic counsel and media connections has dramatically helped our brand and has had an extremely positive impact on our business, but it has also helped to drive real change in the print industry.”

“We primarily needed help with the content of our new website but were so thoroughly impressed by Sharp Minds’ diligent and detailed approach that we decided to engage them on an ongoing basis. Their attention to detail and thorough understanding of our business’s culture and challenges meant they provided brilliant content and an optimised User Experience geared towards solving our business needs. Sharp Minds were comfortable leading, they took initiative and drove this huge project forward.”
