C8 Consulting, the Thames Valley’s leading PR & marketing consultancy and Voyage, one of the region’s most successful brand and digital communication agencies, have formed a strategic partnership to deliver across-the-board PR, marketing and branding programmes for local, national and international businesses.
With nearly three decade’s worth of profitable trading between them, both organisations have been successful in delivering their own unique blend of consultancy and services to their individual client bases. The partnership will enable C8 Consulting and Voyage to access each other’s complementary strengths and skill-sets to deliver additional services to their clients.
Delivering effective PR and marketing programmes since 2004, C8 Consulting launched its own in-house design service last year adding professionally designed marketing collateral to its portfolio of services. The demand and success of this service is better supported by the partnership as it provides clients access to Voyage’s specialist branding and identity, website and e-commerce capability, as well as mobile and web applications expertise.
Voyage clients will also benefit from the partnership as they will be able to take advantage of C8 Consulting’s range of PR and marketing programmes, which include content creation, media relations and events organisation.
Paula Elliott, Managing Director and Founder of C8 Consulting, comments: “In the modern business world an organisation’s brand and reputation is as important as the goods or services it produces. The partnership with Voyage means that we now have a solid offering in both of these areas. I’m really excited as I believe not only is it a win for us and a win for Voyage, but more importantly it’s a win for all of our clients.”
Jules James, Managing Director and Founder of Voyage, adds: “We help companies focus their positioning and supercharge their product or services through brand. Our speciality is translating the brand intelligence we uncover into digital and print experiences, designed to give your customers and audiences exactly what they want. If well managed, your brand can persuade people to buy your service or product over a competitors and pay a premium price. Partnering with C8 Consulting makes perfect sense for us as a business and for our clients. C8 Consulting’s expertise complements the services we offer and I am very much looking forward to seeing the results of our collaboration.”
