Poole-based digital agency b4b Marketing is kicking off 2024 by announcing that they have proudly secured a substantial stake in the award-winning Bournemouth based creative agency, Studio Global, forming one of the largest agency groups locally.
The new partnership will give both agencies a stronger foothold in the local digital community and an expanded marketing service to offer to clients.
Anthony Tilley, Owner & MD of b4b, said of the new deal: “We have long admired Studio Global, not only for their excellence in delivering high quality creative branding work but also the standard of their film and media projects is up there with the best in the business.”
“By combining our strengths, our two agencies can offer clients, both current and new, a powerful range of services. These include digital marketing, website and software development, branding, film and animation, creative design, and media. This collaboration will make us a formidable team.”
Both agencies will continue to operate under their own names and from their existing premises in Poole (b4b) and Boscombe (Studio Global).
Owner and Creative Director of Studio Global, Darren Mooney, is excited by the new partnership: “We’ve known Anthony and his team for a long time and have come to understand how they operate their business, focusing keenly on commercial success and acquiring new clients. I am confident that with b4b aiding Studio Global in generating more sales leads, and in turn, us contributing our creative excellence to their service offering, this partnership will thrive and be highly successful.
Established in 2011, b4b, formerly known as Bespoke 4 Business, is home to over seventy digital experts across offices in Poole and Poland. They offer a rare, bespoke service with every element of their service performed by b4b experts in-house including technical website and software development fulfilled in their Polish office.
Studio Global began in 2000 and has built a reputation for executing exquisite branding, design, and media projects for some of the UK’s household brands including Virgin Media, London Stock Exchange, Hilton, Molson Coors and Hall & Woodhouse.
Between the two agencies, clients can now benefit from a full branding service, website design & build, software development, digital marketing including SEO, PPC, social media and email marketing, film, animation, photography, PR, design & print, branded clothing, and promotional products.
This announcement comes just six months after b4b celebrated their recent expansion by moving into their third office in Poole.
