Matt is our tamed Marketing Director. Formerly European Marketing Director at Midway Games, and International Head of Communications for Atari, he is a talented editor, copywriter and presenter. Matt makes sure our clients' written materials are spot on while providing razor sharp insight within our consultancy service.
Steve is the boss. He has 19 years of agency business development experience and the ability to see opportunities for actionable improvement in our clients’ propositions.
Our team of Business Developers find opportunities for our clients and make sure each of those clients feels involved and informed.
Asifa and Emma form our data team. They find information and build lists, and none of us know how they do it so well or so quickly. Emma also keeps us organised on the admin side.
Over the years we’ve found time to play poker, have the occasional nice lunch, watch Matt's band, host company movie nights and all the other usual company stuff.
“We’ve recently had some great wins from conversations started by Sponge; their communication is clear, and they appear to genuinely understand our way of working.
A particular strength appears to be in the way initial conversations are handled. Initial meetings with prospects feel much more natural and avoid those awkward ‘first-date’ style questions during initial meetings concerning the basics of our setup and skill set, which many other new business agencies do not appear to cover off. This approach, combined with an ability to chase us (at our request - firmly, but fairly!) where necessary is a great combination.
Overall, a thoroughly impressive outfit that we would have no hesitation in recommending.”
“They did a brilliant job with our first ever marketing campaign, and their results far exceeded our expectations. ”
