<p>Hi Ashley,</p>
<p>I work for a marketing company based in North Yorkshire, you may or may notr have heard of us - Summit Media. We are a marketing company with an interesting history.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.summit.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">http://www.summit.co.uk/</a></p>
<p>While our public face is one of retail expertise and we work for the likes of Comet, Argos & Play, we also have a small, hard working and dedicated team of Account Managers who spend their working lives (and some of their personal lives) delivering bespoke marketing plans for our non-retail clients! </p>
<p>I currently head up the team and am actively looking for ways to increase my customer portfolio. We currently manage a range of clients in the team, including:</p>
<p><strong>Trinity Mirror Group</strong> (job sites such as <a href="http://totallyfinancial.com/" rel="nofollow">http://totallyfinancial.com/ </a>& <a href="http://www.secsinthecity.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">http://www.secsinthecity.co.uk/) </a>as well as the Daily Mirror's own website and the group's newest website "Local Mole"</p>
<p><strong>Peer1 Hosting</strong> - just launched in the UK, we managed their offline launch at Internet World and now manage their online marketing - <a href="http://www.peer1hosting.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">http://www.peer1hosting.co.uk/</a></p>
<p><strong>UNITE Students </strong>- We designed their site last year (www.unite-students.com) and now manage all their online marketing</p>
<p><strong>QAS </strong>- Part of the experian brand, we manage their PPC campaigns <a href="http://www.qas.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">http://www.qas.co.uk/</a></p>
<p><strong>Envirowise </strong>- A government agency, we manage their PPC, SEO and media campaigns <a href="http://www.envirowise.gov.uk/uk.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.envirowise.gov.uk/uk.html</a></p>
<p>We also manage marketing for a number of smaller companies and charities.</p>
<p>We are aware of the general feeling regarding B2B clients. In your article you mention some of the challenges - 'too small', 'too niche', 'can't track sales offline' etc. All of these, are not seen as an issue to us, rather a challenge!!</p>
<p>The too small issue is not a problem, I have some good "SME" type clients currently who we manage to run profitable campaigns for through minimum spend agreements (or min management fees)</p>
<p>The too niche issue is not a problem, my team enjoy finding out about businesses which they have limited knowledge of. Peer1, QAS & Envirowise are great examples of businesses which are complex products which our team have worked hard to understand and deliver strong marketing campaigns for</p>
<p>Tracking too is not an issue. Summit Media have just launched a new product to our current clients which I believe we are coming to market with soon.... summitTRACK. We have worked hard on this solution with a third party supplier and can tie offline transactions back into online activity for all our current clients and therefore I don't see why we would not be able to complete this for anyone else!!</p>
<p>I COULD go on, but at the risk of not wanting to bore you, I will stop! Please contact me though if you want ANY more information. My e-mail address is david.ayre@summitmedia.com. I am confident I would be able to add value to any client's marketing campaigns, please point them in my direction!</p>
<p>Regards</p>
<p>Dave </p>
