“The company we've kept ”
The company we’ve kept over the past 24 years is made up of successful companies, large and small, that have one thing in common – they understand the value of marketing and the effect it has to their bottom line.

Allders
This giant of a department store in south Croydon was still thought to be the 3rd largest by floor area in the UK. TMA was appointed in 2008 to provide urgently needed media buying expertise and this quickly developed into a full agency service with creative, print buying and digital services all involved.
As well as weekly press promotions TMA also created niche department branding, such as the Fashion Rocks areas and the innovative School Proms positioning to help break into previously untapped markets

The A24 Group
The A24 Group is a privately-owned medical staffing organisation who

Imparando UK
Imparando develops and delivers innovative, custom corporate education solutions. Their complete end-to-end solutions include state-of-the-art training and event facilities for classroom and blended learning. Individually or in combination, they create the optimum climate for learning – an environment in which people and business performance are continuously developed, costs reduced and ROI maximised.
We were there at the birth of Imparando so had responsibility for brand design and execution, website design, direct marketing and hard and soft copy collateral production as part of the launch. The relationship continues to flourish as the business continues to grow.
“I have had the privilege of working with TMA while working at three different
companies over the past twelve years, currently at Imparando (UK) Ltd, and previous
at Global Knowledge Europe BV and Managed Training Services, and could not recommend
any marketing agency more highly. Steve Thompson, Senior Partner, is the consummate
professional, and his approach to working with internal and external personnel
is always executed with the highest levels of respect and integrity. TMA is the
best and most responsive marketing agency I have ever encountered, in terms of
determination to understand the client proposition, packaging this into compelling
messages and delivering to market through thought-provoking creative platforms,
which succinctly communicate the benefits as well. Whether for large B2B or B2C
engagements, TMA has successfully developed several marketing plans for my current
and previous companies, all of which have resulted in increased revenues and
profit."

TMA were asked to revise the website content
and provide core marketing expertise which has since led to the development
of a lead generation campaign plus support material including a monthly
e-newsletter, case studies and the implementation of a customer referral scheme.
“We have been working with TMA and in particular Steve Thompson and his team
since February this year. We are going through a process of remarketing our existing
brand and launching a new service. Throughout what has struck us is how quickly
Steve understood our business, what we wanted to achieve and truly partnered
with us to guide us through a process of which we were not familiar. TMA are
always clear about how long it will take, what is required from you, and how
much the process will cost. It really does feel like having your own marketing
department. We have, and thoroughly do recommend TMA."
