Our Core Values
Be Simple
“It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like "What about lunch?”
-Winnie-The-Pooh
We believe that Winnie is right, it is more fun to talk to people who don't use long, difficult words. In the marketing industry it is hard not to get caught up with acronyms and abbreviations as this is the industry standard, we try to be different. We want your experience to be enlightening, insightful and engaging. We are people who are full of energy and ideas and want to work with you to create something bigger and grow your business online. Not bamboozle you with mediocrity.
Defy The Status Quo
The status quo is a term which can be used to say
"things have always been that way and they ain't gonna change!"
What has always made me unique as a person is the way I see the world. If something isn't right I will change it. On more then one occasion I have come to blows with people who wanted things to stay the way they were, by standing my ground and seeing it through I have always made the change for the better. We are not yes men or followers, we are here to guide your business to a better path. We will work with you to create the best solution for growth.
Here For You
"Blades Media was built to help people and never as a money grab"
One of the most enjoyable aspects of this business is talking to clients, past and present, and find out how well they're doing. Blades Media has always been about growing businesses and helping them achieve long term goals.
Not short term wins for our bank accounts.
Do More With Less
"Make everything cost effective whilst delivering the best we can"
Some people walk into a business and see nothing but pound signs. When we walk in we see opportunity. It is a vital core of business to make sure everything we offer is affordable, has long term benefits and delivers the wow factor.
