These are the agencies that together form the Engine group, each performing a vital role within the company.
Advertising agency WCRS was born in 1979 but reborn when our management buyout saw 27 members of staff buy the agency back from Havas.
It’s made a huge difference.
In our first full year of independence, we were named Agency of the Year, and since the buyout we have appeared on more Agency of the Year shortlists than any of our competitors.
Our agency is growing fast on the back of a simple belief: if we can make our clients successful, success will surely follow for WCRS.
In short, our aim is that WCRS should be a brand’s best friend.
Dave believes that successful businesses share three things: energy, belief and creativity. We work with clients in every industry sector on disciplines including brand strategy, corporate strategy, employee engagement and brand communication.
We combine rigorous strategic thinking with great creativity to solve our customers' business problems time and time again. Whether your business is launching new products, services or brands, breaking into new markets or even looking to reinvent itself, Dave can help.
Woo's mission is to ensure that we bring strategic thinking to what have traditionally been tactical disciplines.
The work that we do can manifest itself as sales promotion, experiential marketing, shopper marketing, point of sale activity or brand development, but it’s always underpinned with a seamless blend of insight, creativity and impeccable delivery.
We call this Strategic Brand Activation
Our approach and pedigree means that we’re equally as comfortable leading and creating strategies as we are working with, and delivering against, existing strategies.
Put us to the test.
What makes Slice different is that we think about numbers as well as ideas.
We use PR and / or experiential marketing to help you sell your products or services. Success to us is not just reach but also reaction.
All of our work uses various metrics to see if it has worked – which seems pretty obvious to us but is sadly lacking from most of our competitors.
We even invented Direct Response PR to drive footfall to your website, retail outlets or event. Our mission is to help you increase your SLICE of the market. We hate fluffy!
