New Look Website For Purple Pilchard

A NEW WEBSITE LOOK FOR PURPLE PILCHARD

The UK's favourite marketing & PR provider (with a fish in its title) for ambitious, personality-packed food and drinks brands is proud to announce the unveiling of its new, rather fine website (http://www.purplepilchard.co.uk/) that further reinforces the fact that good marketing needn't be pompous, pushy or over-priced.

Set up in 2004 by ex Ben & Jerry's marketer Ian Hills, Purple Pilchard, was established to accomodate this former client-side marketer's growing frustration that there were no agencies currently geared to service the very distinct needs of freshing think start-up companies on tight budgets.

What began primarily as a strategic marketing consultancy has grown over the years to now accomodate PR, copywriting, stunts and website solutions within its remit.

According to Ian, 'it was becoming a bit embarrassing telling clients that they needed to enhance their website offering when our own site looked like rather unsavoury fish paste.' We don't profess to owning either the biggest or whizziest agency website in town - but this is really the point - a simple, focused yet premium-leaning website experience is all that a well thought through brand of tomorrow really needs - anything too glitzy to me suggests that the brand either lacks focus or has something to hide.

Current Purple Pilchard clients include: Salty Dog, Rod & Ben's Organic Soups, Island bakery biscuits,The Handmade Cake Co, & Cawston Vale juices and Monty's Bakehouse
