Social media agency plans creative hub in Manchester

Technology

Social media agency myclever is marking a major milestone in business growth with a move to upscale new offices in Manchester city centre.

The agency, which reported 100 per cent growth in the past 12 months having developed bespoke campaigns in the UK and internationally for the likes of Seagate and The Co-operative Group, is planning to double growth in its client services offering.

myclever will now place more focus on product development following the launch of myclever Lab, a hub for research and experimentation in emerging technologies.

Built by BDP architects, the office will be transformed by myclever into a collaborative working space, allowing clients to hotdesk side-by-side with the team.

The development comes at an exciting time for the agency, as it prepares to launch a hard-hitting social media campaign with British Red Cross.

Myclever CEO Rob McNair wants the new office to become a creative hub in Manchester.

“This has been a significant year for us and has seen us expand our product offering in both video and animation, as well as paid media,” he said.

“We’re proud to have become the go-to for creative social media campaigns and we pride ourselves on turning tricky briefs into digital campaigns that deliver results and change mindsets.

“We also wanted to invest in Manchester and add to the great community around us. Because we have lots more space we can open some desks up and let our clients hotdesk with us, that way if they need anything, we are right there.

“Manchester’s digital scene is becoming much more collaborative and we are developing a hub for that work to take place.”

He added: “Our lab has really developed into a testing facility for real product innovation.

“This will be a big focus as we expand further and we have some really exciting prospects developing for our current and future clients.”
