Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if this service will work for me?

We’re so confident in our approach, if we don’t double your return once your contract is up, our senior media buying team will jump in and scale it for you at no extra cost. This would usually cost £4,000 per month. We’ve developed and tested this approach on all types of industries and companies over the course of many years - from the luxury industry to food and drink. As long as you have a website, our luxury marketing strategies will work for you.

An agency quoted me £5000 a month! How is this so cheap?

Not a bad deal! We’ve seen the services we offer priced at £10,000 per month - and luxury marketers tend to go even higher. We can do the same work for a fraction of that, because we make clever use of AI, machine learning and automated reporting. We use this to work faster and smarter, at the cutting edge of marketing technology.

My sales are doing okay - how do I know if this will help?

The world of digital marketing is constantly changing, and in the current climate, it’s crucial to stay ahead of the competition - especially in the lifestyle sector. We want our luxury brand marketing strategies to not just help your business survive the hard times ahead, but to reach its fullest potential.

I already have a social media/marketing hire, will I be doubling up?

Not at all – we work with in-house marketing teams every day. We bring a different set of skills to the table through our specialist use of ads, content marketing and advanced SEO/local SEO techniques. Plus, posting on your social media accounts isn’t what we do – it’s smart to keep that in-house.

How long is the contract?

We work with our clients for a minimum of 6 months to be able to deliver them exceptional results. If we don’t double your return once your contract is up, our senior media buying team will jump in and scale it for you at no extra cost. This would usually cost £4,000 per month. We’ve never had a client leave at the end of a contract.

Is your PICNIC Plan the only service you offer?

PICNIC and PICNIC Plus are our ultra-streamlined packages that we can offer for the quoted price. However, if you require other services such as website design, branding or PR, we can help with that too. Just let us know in your call and we can discuss.

We wrote the book on it

Written by our founder Paul Hannagen in 2019, Gastronomic Marketing details how companies in the food sector can use gastronomy to develop meaningful relationships with their customers. Paul went from chef and restaurateur to leading a full-service digital marketing agency – and he picked up the tricks of the trade along the way.

Breaking bread and sharing a table are powerful ways to build rapport, and this book tells you how to do it well. This book contains tips, guidance and advice from one of the UK’s best digital marketing companies on how to ensure your events or gastronomic gifting campaigns provide the best return on investment.
