We are a content strategy agency that delivers innovative workshops.

We aim to give you the clarity required to build robust, outcome focussed roadmaps.

Using our insight and expertise, we solve problems and bring teams together aligning their goals and objectives.

Using the world’s greatest resource – post it notes – we guarantee to make even the toughest decision making easy. We can design a workshop around any challenge or team.

Here are two examples that we’ve developed for our clients.

Story Sprint

Not sure what story you should be telling?

Our Story Sprint is a half-day workshop that will draw out the essence of your brand and the time and place it sits in right now.

It starts by focusing on what is great about your business. What is holding you back? We use a tried and tested method of working ‘together, alone’ to draw out your focus for the next 12 months with some creative campaign ideas. The method, which is inspired by the Google Design Sprint created by Jake Knapp, can also be used to define your brand.

This includes tone of voice, interrogating an existing plan, informing your social media strategy or even defining your USP.

MCRbrief

New to Manchester?

MCRbrief is a one-day session to teach you everything you need to know about our great city. It will provide you with an insider’s guide to the market and competition. This is an introduction to the most important media and influencers in the region. It also includes a bespoke Launch Sprint to help you clarify your key aims and audiences for launch.

Influencer content reaches over 13m eyeballs every day in the city. That’s a lot of opportunities, but how do you make sure you reach the right people to put the right bums on your seats?

That’s where we come in. We launch venues of course and we would love to do that for you. But first, we recommend you use MCRbrief to match your plan to our city.

With some insider knowledge and 20 years’ experience, alongside an innovative proven workshop technique (it was developed by Google so you can trust that it works), we can turn your plan into an audience roadmap guaranteed to resonate with our city in just a few hours.

You can test your research and your ideas on our team and weigh them up against the evidence we can provide. It’s like a focus group, a workshop, a brief and a pitch all rolled into one.

Our team has launched or promoted some of Manchester’s best performing bars, restaurants and attractions. From MasterChef winner Simon Wood’s fine dining restaurant, to the city’s favourite pizza parlour Crazy Pedro’s. We don’t just do homegrown, we also work with national brands including Chopstix, Shoryu Ramen, Vapiano, Hotel Indigo and Edyn (Whitworth Locke).
