Within just a few weeks Peak was fully immersed in our business seizing upon the opportunities and challenges facing Blue Cube and devising a communications strategy to address our markets, our clients and our suppliers and drive us towards our business goals. They work with speed and focus, flexing their expertise, industry knowledge and contacts to give us a real advantage over our competition and consistently deliver outstanding results. Our only regret is that we didn't know about Peak sooner.

Peak played a pivotal part in the IFB establishing a high profile industry and public profile, to include national and regional television and radio, and print.

That profile, which has become an established brand of its own, has undoubtedly played a fundamental part in the success of the IFB.

Peak was brought in to generate an award entry involving both Detica NetReveal and RSA, several different departments and working to a very tight deadline. Despite having no previous involvement with the project in question, Peak was able to quickly get up to speed with the industry issues, organisational challenges and bespoke solutions that needed to be included in the response and present this in a clear and concise format. What could have been an onerous task was completed professionally and articulately and as a result, the submission has been shortlisted for an industry award. We were very impressed with the way that Peak operated throughout the whole initiative.

Peaks results speak for themselves - the very day our first article was published in a motor trade publication we received a call from an interested prospect. The system works.

As engineers and innovators running a dynamic business, time for marketing was always limited. The acquisition of an established business meant we had to review our company image and literature. We hired Peak to refresh our brand and create messages and marketing material to help us ring fence existing business and break into a new sector. The process was enlightening and the results outstanding. We were so pleased with the impact we have also completely overhauled our website, using Peak’s advice to reflect a consistent look and feel for the business.

AXA Commercial wanted to ensure that it’s local training initiative on building customer advocacy delivered genuine bottom line value for the Broker directors attending . Peak exceeded the brief by developing and delivering a workshop that provided our brokers with valuable insights through a practical step-by-step workbook approach. This ensured that the Broker directors in ‘real time’ developed the basis of a multi-channel communications strategy to engage with customers and prospects to defend and grow their business. It was both highly interactive and thought provoking and has received high praise from delegates, who found it to be ‘inspiring’, ‘an eye opener’ and ‘a great opportunity to work on the business, not in it’. We are delighted that the workshop is having such a positive impact.

As part of helping us really understand how our customers see our business, we worked with Annie & her team at Peak Marketing to carry out a detailed & targeted programme of customer research. With their in depth knowledge of our industry, Peak Marketing really challenged our thinking around the questions we asked, the way we segmented our customers, the information we needed to know both now & in the future about our customers’ needs & challenges, & how we got under the surface of how customers saw each part of our proposition, good or bad.
By taking the time to really understand what we wanted to achieve with this research, our aims as a business, & our customer proposition, & then pushing our thinking on what we wanted to achieve out of the programme, we ended up with a high quality piece of research that gave us an invaluable insight into:
Where we were now, Where we needed to change, What our customers real priorities were. The challenges they faced now & in the future that we could turn into real opportunities
Within 4 months, we have already turned this knowledge into business opportunity, commercial advantage, & a better customer experience, so the investment has been invaluable, & it's been enjoyable working with like minded people along the way. I would have no hesitation in recommending Peak Marketing to any business".
