Given how we all live our lives today, we are rarely influenced by any one source – sometimes it’s a recommendation from a friend, a celeb we follow, something we’ve read, seen or heard or perhaps it’s all of these and more. We believe in ‘the communications blend’ and that most communication challenges need a multi-channel approach across PR, content, digital and brand experiences.
What We Do
This is why SEC Newgate offers a modern and integrated comms approach via a myriad of services…
PR
We work both on a retained and project basis offering B2C and B2B PR services. We also have lots of cross-agency experience, whether it be as the lead agency or taking direction to collaborate on a master comms plan.
Creative
We offer brand positioning workshops and have our own ideation process, taking inspiration from both future trends and popular culture. “A good idea or campaign platform should outlive you” is one of our creative mantras.
Insights &
Strategy
All our campaigns are founded on research whether it be from data sources, our own analytical tools or simply getting out there and talking to the desired target audience. This is about building a strategy based on a real ‘A HA!’ moment that substantiates our ideas.
