Astley Media, Exeter’s award winning PR, marketing and design company has been ranked top five in the South West by a respected business review.
The criteria, for the ranking, includes the number of staff and retained clients, as well as agency income.

This latest accolade for Astley Media comes hot on the heels of the agency’s award success at the end of 2016, when it won Silver for Outstanding Small Consultancy of the Year at the Chartered Institute of Public Relations PRide Awards (South of England). Dan Pritchard, Astley Media’s MD, comments:

“We are proud to be the only Devon agency to make the top 5 in the review undertaken by Insider Media. Our team works hard to deliver outstanding results for our clients and this accolade is proof of our growth and achievements in the last three years. With two significant award wins behind us, having won both gold and silver at the CIPR awards, we are now aiming for further success this year with some exciting campaigns planned for 2017.”

Launched in 2013, Astley Media combines creative consumer and B2B public relations and marketing with social media and design expertise.

Recognised as a leading PR agency in the region, Astley Media works with a diverse mix of national and regional brands such as Stagecoach Southwest, blur group, Sampson Hall, Northcott Beaton, Property Search Group and Queen St. Dining. The company is also involved in Devon’s business growth programme, Fast Track to Growth, and Tech South West.

The agency has grown considerably in the last three years, expanding its client portfolio and experienced team of PR and marketing professionals. Dan explains why he thinks the agency is growing in popularity:

“We are constantly thinking of new ideas to help our clients engage with their audience and compete in an increasingly crowded market place. What makes a company stand out is its ability to be different and brave by choosing new and innovative ways to engage with the audience, while retaining its brand values. In the last few years we have seen a decline in more traditional forms of marketing and PR, with clients needing to go that extra mile to win over their audience. We work with clients to really understand their brand and provide solutions that deliver results.”
