A North West digital agency has reported a 125% jump in new enquiries amid a huge surge in demand from clients since the onset of coronavirus.
Pixel Kicks says its SEO, social media, paid advertising and email marketing specialisms have seen a rise in enquiries particularly over the past three months.
The Ancoats-based firm put the trend down to clients feeling more confident and realising the importance of having a strong web presence as consumer trends and buying behaviours continue to move online.
Andrew Flynn – digital marketing manager at Pixel Kicks - said: “Coronavirus has devastated many businesses, but for others it has been an opportunity to reassess their comms and marketing strategies to ensure they are positioned as strongly as possible for the future.
"There is no point having a cutting-edge website if it can’t be found by your target audiences.
"It’s great to see that more firms are now confident enough to invest in their digital marketing budgets which I think will continue strongly over the coming year.”
Particular growth sectors have included property, professional services, merchandise manufacturers and distributors, and healthcare brands.
As a result, Pixel Kicks said it expects to expand its dedicated digital marketing team by around 30% by the end of 2020.
