A growing digital marketing agency is set to double its annual turnover for the second year running as it nears the half a million pound mark in the current financial term.
ROAR Digital Marketing experienced a 100% increase in its turnover for 2022/23 when it recorded £282,000, and that figure is set to be doubled again in 2023/24 as the business closes in on the £550,000 mark.
ROAR, which is based in Tyneside but has a client base throughout the UK and into Europe, specialises in Search Engine Marketing services particularly strategic SEO and PPC solutions.
The company has enjoyed rapid growth since being founded in 2016 by former Google Digital Trainer and university lecturer Michael Knowles, with the number of clients it works with more than doubling in the past year alone.
Michael said: “Reflecting back to when the company was close to collapse when Covid-19 hit, the growth ROAR Digital Marketing has experienced ever since has been remarkable.
“It’s been a long and difficult journey to get to where we are but, with the hard work of the excellent team here, we have consistently provided a professional and knowledgeable service to ensure we improve business’ search engine rankings and significantly boost their online visibility.
“I couldn’t be more proud of the team for the exceptional results they deliver for a variety of clients working across all sectors, and I’m looking forward to continuing to watch them as individuals and as a team develop ROAR even further in the coming years.”
ROAR’s clients are based throughout the UK, with a high proportion based in London, and it recently celebrated acquiring its first fully international client within the insurance industry.
As the company’s customer base has increased, the team has grown accordingly and the number of staff members jumped from two to six within a 12-month period.
It was recently bolstered with the appointment of experienced sales manager Chris Graham who was recruited to create and lead a sales division for ROAR.
Michael said: “It’s been great to watch the team grow as more businesses enlist our services, and I’m excited to be in the privileged position where we are looking to recruit further team members which will allow us to work with even more amazing companies.”
