At Yes Community Marketing we believe that meaningful connections are not derived from marketing to people, but by engaging with people’s minds. Our values are important to us. That’s why we’ve shared them with you here:
We are an agency committed to social change.
We are completely committed to numerous social change projects both for and outside of the agency. Whether it’s setting up a Credit Union to protect vulnerable people from loan sharks, managing a social capital programme to engage disadvantaged children in after-school activities or mentoring young people to raise their aspirations, social change is embedded in our culture.
We offer a learning environment for the development of ideas and critical thinking.
We foster a perpetual spirit of learning. We are responsible for boosting the skills within our industry through our position on the council of the Direct Marketing Association (North) and regularly deliver training seminars and conferences.
We actively support the delivery of Staffordshire University’s Advertising and Brand Management degree, including lecturing on the course and mentoring the students to arrive at solutions for live briefs. We are also committed to continuous professional development and study via a range of learning platforms.
We are a strategic force driving results within the education, enterprise, employment and training sector.
We work for a range of clients within the education, enterprise, employment and training sector – these include the Qualifications and Curriculum Development Agency, the Qualifications and Credit Framework, the Skills Funding Agency, Burton College, Inspiring Communities, Royal School for the Deaf Derby, CITB-ConstructionSkills, UK Trade & Investment, Connexions and the National Apprenticeship Service.
We understand the public sector inside out and have developed a number of strategies to support our clients in managing stakeholders and demonstrating added value.
We are a flexible organisation developing new tools of engagement as the world changes around us.
We believe that communities are fluid and dynamic. To keep pace with our clients’ service users we change as the world around us changes. This means that we work within a range of new tools of engagement from online advertising and multi-media production through to social marketing.
We don’t believe that meaningful connections are derived from marketing to people, we believe that they are attained by engaging with people.
We have a range of bespoke tools for engagement, ranging from Community Consult which uses people’s elected communities to drive stronger relationships with them through to online engagement tools including social media management strategies. Experience tells us that a carefully though-out blend of engagement tools has the greatest chance of success.
