Passionate. Tenacious. Transparent. Candid. But most of all, we believe that people help people, and it’s nice to be nice.

 

Think is an independent creative agency based in Manchester, with a London office, bringing together strategy, design, digital marketing and web development.

Who we really are

We’re an independent creative agency made up of strategists, designers, developers and marketers who care about doing good work with good people.

We like solving tricky brand, digital and marketing problems, but who we work with matters just as much as what we create.

Some of the people we work with:

The Think team

For the greater good

We work best with organisations that genuinely care about what they do and the impact they have.

A lot of our experience is in charities and not-for-profits, construction and the built environment, professional services, heritage brands and the public sector. But we’re not hung up on sectors.

We can work with any business. What matters is that you’re values-led, serious about doing things properly and a good fit for how we work.

Purpose and values

Good work needs a reason to exist beyond just looking nice.

We want to understand what you’re trying to change, improve or achieve in the real world. That could be creating social impact, reducing environmental impact, making places safer, improving services for customers or simply raising the bar in your industry.

We’ll get under the skin of your purpose, values and track record too. Not because we want to turn everything into a mission statement, but because the work needs to be true to who you are and how you behave.

How we work

Long-term partners, not quick fixes

We’re probably not the agency for a “can you just make this look nice?” job.

The best results come from getting the foundations right: a clear brand, solid digital and marketing that actually does something. Then improving it over time.

That’s why so many of our client relationships last for years. We get to know the business, become part of the team, challenge when we need to and help keep things moving in the right direction.

If you want an agency that’s honest, practical and hands-on, we’ll probably get on very well.

If you want a quick win at any cost, we’re probably not the right fit.

Standards that mean something

We care about doing things properly.

That means investing in our craft, our team and the standards we hold ourselves to, and working with partners who do the same.

Accreditations are important when they actually mean something. But we care just as much about the everyday stuff: doing what we said we’d do, taking responsibility, producing good work and treating people properly.

Ultimately, it’s pretty simple. People help people. And it’s nice to be nice.

Recognised by our industry peers, we are multi-award nominated and winning…
