Norton Rose
I am writing on behalf of Norton Rose to thank you for the way in which you were able to respond quickly to our needs to identify some prime advertising space in central London to promote our move to new offices at More London. I am very grateful for your help in identifying such a prominent site at London Bridge and helping us to reach a substantial reduction in the initial asking price. You also helped us to extend the initial contract on even more favourable terms. We also appreciated the way in which you helped us to achieve some tight deadlines to get this in place before our move.
Our new premises are in a new business district of London and after 40 years at our former premises in the centre of the City it was important to make sure that people knew about our move and how to find us. The advertising was very successful in achieving this and was mentioned to me by many of our clients and visitors.
Very best wishes
Kevin Mortell

Superior Care
Having become somewhat inundated by job applications, I thought I should take this opportunity to thank you for the efforts of Simply Advertising. We were first introduced to you in September 2007 and, at that time; we reported the huge difficulties that we were experiencing in the recruitment of sufficient levels of experienced healthcare staff to support the business being brought in through our sales efforts. Not a common problem!
You offered a prompt solution to the problem, giving regard to the restrictions posed to us as a small, developing company. Press campaigns were launched in a very short space of time and I do believe that this was only facilitated by your personal, hands-on approach.
Even at our first meeting you sited the importance of a continuous marketing scheme as opposed ‘reactive’ advertising (our former approach). The results of the first two months of our new outlook has, without doubt, confirmed the importance of a continuous, planned advertising scheme – we can now efficiently plan our activities and sales efforts around the programme that we have in place which makes our work a great deal easier. This approach has also enabled you to secure the very best advertising rates, rewarding us with much greater exposure without collapsing our budgetary restrictions.
Going forward, I envisage our growth with Simply Advertising and, moreover, believe you and John to be intrinsic to our efforts of developing a premium brand within the healthcare recruitment industry.
Once again, thank you very much for your part in the successful growth of our company.
kind regards,
Stewart Thorp

Rooms at St John
At Rooms at St John we pride ourselves on our quality furniture and professional staff. It is paramount that any media we use projects the right image for our company.
Simply Advertising took the time to fully understand our ethos and requirements before putting together both an immediate and longer term advertising campaign which are proving to be highly successful. They are also always available to discuss changes and ideas fully, and work with us to develop the best campaign possible. It is also worth noting that their negotiation skills have enabled us to maximise every pound of our media budget.
I would like to thank Simply Advertising for always being “one step ahead of the game” with their recommendations. It is very refreshing to have a media agency that works like an additional resource to our company. We look forward to a continued and profitable relationship for many years to come.
kind regards,

I am pleased to confirm on behalf of Eagle One Ltd that I have worked in partnership with the personnel of Simply Advertising for several years and will continue to do so. I have found the “No Nonsense” approach that they adopt when purchasing advertising or media on behalf of my company to be very straightforward. They possess the negotiating knowledge and skills that have not only provided us with value for money, they have also improved the quality of coverage we receive when compared to our previous direct purchasing.
kind regards,

Matt Fiddes Martial Arts Schools
Having started up a Martial Arts franchise only 1.5yrs ago I approached John at Simply Advertising with an almost complete blank canvas with just a few basic ideas to move forward with. It was very reassuring to know that no matter what the size, even a business of my size was handled in a professional, relaxed and enthusiastic manner. We discussed many different ideas, examining all aspects of a marketing strategy. With their ideas, suggestions and support we were able to quickly put together some very effective plans specifically targeted for the market I needed to reach. Consequently, the campaign we launch wielded the best results we have ever handled and I am confident that my Martial Arts Schools will grow from strength to strength with their innovative and supportive backing
