Digital marketing

You’re brilliant at what you do! But maybe you need some help telling people how awesome you are. That’s where we come in. 

We help purpose-driven organisations (startups, entrepreneurs, social enterprises and B Corps) get their marketing working as hard as they do. No fluff, no vanity metrics, no strategies that live in a Google Doc and never see daylight. Just honest, effective marketing that sounds like you and actually gets results.

Marketing that actually makes you feel something 

Good marketing isn’t one big dramatic thing. It’s a lot of smaller things working well together – consistently, intentionally, and without requiring you to be online at midnight.

We’ve grouped what we do into five areas. Not sure which one you need? No worries – that’s what the first conversation is for. We have a good chat, you tell us about the awesome stuff you’re doing, and we create a plan to help you get in front of more of the right people. 

There are no one-size-fits-all packages here – because your business isn’t one-size-fits-all either. And because we build digital products too, we can go further than most marketing agencies when something technical needs fixing/optimising.

The project had many complex objectives but that only fuelled the motivation and commitment of the team… Their agility, responsiveness and understanding for various user groups and their unique challenges was exactly what we needed, and they have been a pleasure to work with.

How to tell your story

Brand and strategy

Here’s something we see a lot – businesses jumping straight into marketing tactics before they’ve sorted the basics. Then wondering why people aren’t engaging with them, but their messaging and online presence are disjointed and unclear.

Brand strategy and a clear sense of who you’re talking to isn’t the boring bit you skip. It’s the awesome strategic work that makes everything else easier.

  • Work out what actually makes you different – so your marketing pulls in the same direction every time, not six different ones
  • Find words that sound like you, not like a corporate brochure from 2007
  • Get inside the heads of the people you’re trying to reach – know what they care about, what puts them off, and how to talk to them in a way that lands
  • Plan a launch properly – so you reach the right people at the right moment, not just whoever happens to be scrolling

Get found & get results

Content & SEO

Getting found online takes a bit more than posting on LinkedIn and hoping the algorithm’s in a good mood. We help you build content that reaches the right people – through search, through social, through wherever your audience actually hangs out.

If you’re the person responsible for all of this (and somehow also the strategy, the budget, and the away-day spreadsheet) – we see you. We can help.

  • Build a realistic content plan that doesn’t make you want to lie down – clear on what to say, where, and how often
  • Get found by people already searching for what you do – we handle the technical stuff, the content strategy, and the newer AI search side too
  • Create content that earns authority over time and keeps working long after you’ve hit publish and gone for a coffee

Turn browsing into action

Growth & conversion

Getting people to your website is one thing. Getting them to do something once they’re there – that’s where most businesses quietly lose the plot. The good news? It’s usually more fixable than people think, and you don’t always need a full rebuild to see a real difference.

We help you understand what’s getting in the way, and then we sort it – so your website works as hard as the rest of your business does.

  • Find out why people are bouncing off your site without doing anything – and fix it. Small changes here can make a surprisingly big difference to your results
  • Give people a clear, compelling reason to get in touch, sign up, or take the next step – and make it genuinely easy for them to do it
  • Build conversion funnels and lead magnets that feel helpful and natural, not like you’re being herded through a call centre at 8am on a Monday
  • Turn more of your existing traffic into real enquiries and sales – without spending more on ads to get people there in the first place

Be seen in all the right places

Channels & communications

You don’t need to be everywhere. You just need to be in the right places, showing up in a way that sounds like you – not like it was written by a tired intern or, worse, an AI that’s never met a human.

The trick is working out where your audience actually is, what they actually want to hear, and then showing up for them consistently – without it eating your entire week. That’s where we come in.

  • Make the most of email – still one of the most effective channels going, and nowhere near as complicated as people make it sound. If you’re not using it well, you’re leaving a lot on the table
  • Show up consistently on the platforms your audience actually uses, with content that has a genuine pulse – and sounds like it was written by a real person, because it was
  • Say the right thing at the right time – whether that’s a press release, a stakeholder update, a campaign launch, or something that doesn’t quite fit any category but still needs to be said well
  • Build a channel strategy that’s realistic to actually deliver – so you stop starting from scratch every month and start building something that compounds over time

What’s actually working?

Data & insights

Here’s the thing about data – most people have too much of it and not enough of the useful kind. Spreadsheets full of numbers that don’t tell a story. Dashboards that look impressive and mean nothing. Reports that take longer to read than the month they’re covering.

Data is only useful if it’s digestible – and digestible means knowing which numbers actually matter for your goals, and which ones are just making the graphs look busy. We cut through the noise and give you a clear picture.

No dashboards for the sake of dashboards. No vanity metrics dressed up as wins. Just honest, straightforward reporting that tells you what’s going well, what isn’t, and what we’re doing about it.

  • Get monthly reports written for humans – not analysts, not robots, actual people who have things to do and decisions to make
  • Understand what’s really driving your results – and what’s just making the graphs look pretty without doing any actual work
  • Spot what isn’t performing before it becomes a problem – and know we’ll always tell you straight, even when the news isn’t great
  • Make better decisions faster, because you actually understand what the numbers are telling you – and you’ve got someone in your corner to help you act on them

We’re really pleased with how the site turned out. We’re already seeing the impact of Hiyield’s work — we saw almost 4.5x more clicks and 67x more impressions from our site within a month. So far, we’ve only indexed 17% of our site’s pages, so we are expecting those numbers to still increase.

 Flexi-Hex

Flexi-Hex are a purpose-driven sustainable packaging company based in Cornwall. When they came to us, they were relying on distributors to reach customers and their website wasn’t doing the work it needed to.

We rebuilt their site, put a proper data strategy in place, and optimised for search – helping them move from distributor-dependent to digitally visible. Within a month, the results spoke for themselves.

Key stats:

  • 76% increase in high-intent users
  • 62% increase in sessions
  • 52% growth in content consumption

Ready to grow your audience?

Let’s chat about your business goals and how digital marketing can help you achieve them.

Not at all! We’ll explain everything in plain English, ask the right questions to understand your business, and help you figure out where to focus.

Pick what you need. Some clients come to us for the full picture, others for one specific thing – a content strategy, an email setup, a tone of voice that doesn’t make them cringe. We’ll always be honest about what’s going to make the biggest difference for where you are right now.

Honestly, it depends. Some things – fixing a broken email sequence, improving a landing page – can move the needle quickly. Others, like SEO or building a content audience, take longer but compound in a way that paid ads just don’t. We’ll always be upfront about realistic timelines rather than telling you what you want to hear.

Absolutely – we’re very comfortable slotting in alongside in-house teams or other agencies. We’ll be clear about where we can genuinely add something and where we’d just be doubling up on what you’ve already got.
