What our

clients say

MP&Co take you through a journey of marketing discovery that will allow you to accelerate your growth ambitions. Highly recommended.

David Hughes, CEO of Totally Local Company

The team approached our campaign with genuine enthusiasm, invested their time and expertise seriously, but delivered it all with humour which made the whole process very enjoyable.

We have been really impressed with the work that MP&Co have done in helping us to scope the creative direction for a crowdfunding campaign. The team have been a pleasure to work with and incredibly conscientious and thorough. They outlined their process from the first meeting, so we knew what to expect and when, which really helped with our internal planning. They took time to understand our needs really well, were able to take into account a huge range of information and a vast complexity of viewpoints, and produced a comprehensive set of strategic recommendations which went above and beyond what we had expected.

The creative concepts were thoughtfully considered, and aligned perfectly with our brand and audience insights. Everything was delivered on time and any queries we had along the way were dealt with really quickly, including providing additional versions of information to make it easy for us to share progress with senior stakeholders. The team approached our campaign with genuine enthusiasm, invested their time and expertise seriously, but delivered it all with humour which made the whole process very enjoyable. We now have a creative direction and a plan for implementation in which we can feel really confident, and we know where to come if we need further advice or input.

Dani, Olha and the team have worked with us on our strategy and on refreshing our brand , taking time to understand the purpose of our social enterprise, our values and our essence. We have looked together at how we differentiate ourselves in the marketplace for affordable finance. Contact with the MP&Co team is consistently refreshing; they are a pleasure to spend time with. Responses are thoughtful and coherent. I can see how the variety of skills and experience they applied to the strategic review has supported the brand refresh and ideas for our next best steps.

He always takes time to thoroughly understand our requirements before proposing the most appropriate solutions and executing them to perfection within the proposed deadlines. I enjoy working with him and highly recommend his services for any organisation looking to outsource their digital marketing and generate real tangible results.

Lee Ali

Founder and Managing Director, Expo Stars Interactive

"Initially MP&Co spent time reviewing and critiquing our marketing activity before creating an in depth marketing plan for the business. This included a focused content marketing plan, email marketing strategy, social media support and digital campaigns. The team maintains a detailed marketing budget to help us keep track of spend vs. performance, reporting back to us at a regular monthly meeting. Mike has also played a leading role in numerous other strategic marketing projects including event strategy and management and the selection and appointment of additional agency support where required. We consider Mike’s team to be an extension of the team at Adam."

Leon Milns

Founder and Director, We Are Adam

"MP&Co understand how agencies can best support in-house teams, adding value in the right places and filling the gaps in a way that works brilliantly for the organisation. They have supported Caritas Salford for several years, and most recently worked alongside me for our new website project. Their knowledge and expertise was invaluable and they also understood that as a charity with limited resources, every decision made was going to be key in maximising return on investment and driving impact and change in local communities. We were thrilled with the final result and are continuing to work with them for ongoing support too."

Claire Briscoe

Communications Manager, Caritas Salford

"MP&Co worked with us to help us develop our marketing strategy for a niche area of our business. They had a solid process to properly understand our business, our objectives and our target market which meant they could create a well thought out, fully researched and budgeted strategy, giving us a roadmap and structure to continue our growth. We’d recommend working with them to anyone looking to create a solid marketing strategy."

Andrew Read

Managing Director, Redundancy Claims UK

We would recommend MP&Co to anyone looking for specific project support in any areas related to marketing and for more in depth strategic reviews. You won't regret it!

We first got in touch with Mike and the MP&Co team when looking for a new CRM. We spoke to loads of different ‘specialists’, all of whom had many recommendations for what we needed. Few actually spent the time to get to know us before making their recommendation. MP&Co did! This meant, when we decided to go with them not only was the product a great fit, but the design and implementation was extremely smooth. The follow up since has been exceptional, and we are extremely pleased with the new CRM.

We were so impressed with Mike and his team that we embarked on a broader strategic review of our marketing, which in the end went much further than marketing. We found the whole process enlightening and very very helpful. The whole team really got involved and MP&Co expertly facilitated the sessions. With the information they gleaned from these sessions, they were able to develop a comprehensive plan for us that has really helped define the next few years of our operations. Many agencies would have come in with a very top-down approach – but MP&Co took the time to really understand us, see our strengths and weaknesses and then make intelligent, objective recommendations on how we can develop.

We are also really pleased to be working with an agency that has such strong values and purpose. It is something that is very important to us, and this alignment really has meant we’ve been able to develop very close working relationships as we share many common views.
We would recommend MP&Co to anyone looking for specific project support in any areas related to marketing and for more in depth strategic reviews. You won’t regret it!

To top it all off – they are not only an incredibly knowledgeable team, but a LOVELY team to work with. We look forward to many more years working with them.

Paul Herbertson, Managing Director, Journeys by Design

"MP&Co created a marketing plan from scratch and worked alongside our website and SEO provider to bring the plan to reality. Within three to four months, we began to see a lot more visibility of our brand across the various channels and an increase in sales and enquiries directly via our website and various social channels. We're very happy with the service we receive. MP&Co has given the business a blend of structure and creativity from a marketing perspective and he is always available when we need his services. I would recommend the team to any business looking for marketing consultancy to push their business forward."

Barry Lowe

Managing Director, San-iT Ltd

"MP&Co offers a really valuable approach. As marketing consultants, they have added value to my business in a number of ways; through an extremely professional sector specific marketing campaign for the motor retail sector. This project embraced client interviews, high quality marketing content, case studies, blogs and personalised hard copy materials, targeted letters and calls to sector leaders. The team also helped to promote our Vita Safety Risk Directors forum, with social media content, photography and filmed interviews. MP&Co have enabled us to market to a range of multi-site clients and I have no doubt is continuing to enable us to win new business and retain some great customers."

Ian Hutchings

Managing Director, Vita Safety Ltd

"Mike and his team helped us to define our marketing goals and put strategies in place to help us achieve them. Our marketing plan was then built around our core values as a business, implemented through a content plan and Google ad campaign. They really got to know our organisation and gave us tailored advice based on that. If you’re looking for strategic marketing support, a friendly and bespoke service, and help with implementing your strategy, I’d highly recommend talking to Mike."

Karl Doran

Managing Director, Flow Creative

"Working with MP&Co is nothing but smooth-sailing. I know I can count on the team to deliver consistently exceptional training, wherever and whenever it may be. The content they produce is current, engaging and adds true value to our clients. The feedback received from courses Mike Pye is delivering is always positive and often used as a benchmark against other sessions."

Becci Nelson

Workshops & Events Manager, GC Business Growth Hub

"The Ageing report which was produced from the Trafford focus group is brilliant and really captures and highlights the constant issues and barriers that we face. It really made me question whether we understand the older adult perspective in GM at all when findings such as air pollution get drawn out of the conversation which I would never have guessed. Really useful exercise."

Development Director

Trafford Council

"I worked with MP&Co to deliver a new campaign promoting our PGCE courses for 2023 entry developing a creative concept, videos, email workflows and web content with the team. The campaign so far has been one of the most successful we have run over recent years, having increased engagement with digital advertising and the number of leads generated across the course of the campaign. It’s been a pleasure working with the team at Mike Pye & Co and the campaign achieved great results."

Nicky Humfress

Faculty Marketing Officer, Manchester Metropolitan University

"MP&Co took the brief and not only ran with it, they sprinted past the finish line and presented us with a brilliant piece of work, which was launched on a very tight schedule. I was impressed by how patient and professional the team was throughout this process, taking time and effort to understand the brief and the subject matter which, in itself, was complex. Since the new website was launched, we have had lots of client feedback about how fresh and welcoming it looks - which is fine praise indeed. I strongly recommend Dani, Maddy, Georgina and all the team at MP & Co. For a small business like OCEM, you really feel you matter to them, and the quality of their work shines through. They are stuck with me as a client for as long as they want me.

Olga Crosse

Managing Director, OCEM Ltd.

"From day one it was obvious that MP&Co deeply cared about our business and success. Working with them was a pleasure, nothing was too much trouble and they helped us to build a brand, website with content and digital advertising function from scratch. We had regular reviews to make sure that things were on track, and the breadth of skills in the extended team meant that there was a solution for every requirement."
