Introduction to Summit Media
Summit Media is one of the UK's most extraordinary success stories of the digital media world. The business was started seven years ago in a prison with the ambition of delivering highly effective online marketing for clients as well as developing a pioneering training and rehabilitation scheme for prisons that would lead to employment on release.
With no previous experience of running an agency, Summit Media has built an NMA ranked top 10 digital agency that now employs 100 staff in two countries and has trained over 250 prisoners, many whom now have successful careers in digital media and are taxpaying citizens. Read more about how Summit Media has evolved in a recent Telegraph article.With no sales infrastructure whatsoever, just a reliance on referrals, Summit has grown the company from a turnover of £100,000 to £16 million in just seven years. Summit has a loyal 'blue chip' client base which includes 2 of the UK's top 5 internet retailers, Argos and Play.com. Summit operates from 3 sites; a UK HQ in Yorkshire, HMP Wolds and a European HQ in the centre of Prague employing over 50 designers, developers and marketers.
Summit delivers all channels of online marketing and has a dedicated technology division which delivers fully managed eCommerce platforms and marketing tools to its clients. In 2007 Summit was an award winner at the National Business Awards 2007 and won the NMA Retail Effectiveness award for the delivery of eCommerce and online marketing for Comet (KitchenScience.co.uk).
All these details are, of course, incidental. What you really need to know about our company is that we can help your business to grow online and that we can help you to best serve your audience.
