Founded over 10 years ago, this agency has grown to serve customers in the UK, Germany and around the world.

Less time entering back office data and more time automating and answering sales enquiries.

We work with businesses who want to improve their b2b sales process or build applications to allow process for staff or customers to be improved. One specialism in the engineering industries who manufacture products and assemble tools that need to find and educate their buyers. Often these products are backed with desktop or cloud interfaces to track and use the resources they provide.

Sometimes work out of an co-working office in Cologne, Germany when working with European partners.

Online development success

We believe that online can fit the market of all businesses and is such an accepted and beneficial channel. It is not an alternative to the exclusion of other medium but offers a scale and return for the cost that would have required owning large press, tv and radio spots in the past. Now it offers and always on support to those channels and often allows lower spend there and more ROI through joined up strategy.

Product catalogues and training material can save much of the print costs being online and always be updated and close to a call to the sales and support line. This year Video is such a growing area that offers a personal and impactful addition. We back this with what we see as adding CNC to your unmanned website machine. Analytics and performance data allows you to get the best and see the results of building your online business machine to better out put of leads and reduce areas of waste and inefficiency

Rest of the team

We work with long term partners and contracted team players. Teams on a project vary with scale, typically two to four. When a project is planned we build the best team around that client's needs.
If the project needs more design and branding work then we add these skills to the project. The same is true for any need we have for scaling the project to the client. Some people we partner with work on multiple projects with us a year and some we bring in when it fits the goals. This allows us to bring the best skills and value to Holdingbay clients.
