Being us. It’s not always pretty. Building a competitive advantage ain’t that hard to do. Maintaining it is what defines truly innovative companies. History is littered with one-hit wonders, often they are ground-breaking at the time but for most companies the challenge lies in leveraging that success and repeating it time after time. Ignoring the […]
Location, location, location. Since 1996 we’ve served London and Yorkshire from Halifax and, more recently, a local London office in the heart of Bloomsbury. But we’re on the move. In 2011 we fully adopted a location-agnostic model, dropping our dependence on physical location. This approach has been fantastically successful and it’s now time to embrace […]
Peerless WordPress Support. Over two years the improvement in average support response time dropped from 46hrs to 7hrs. How did we do that? Making such a massive improvement was actually quite straightforward, although quite painful. I could say we “cared more about clients” or that we introduced our own version of “agile support” or “a […]
Content Marketing. Nobody really believes digital marketing bullshit and everyone understands there are no perfect companies, so why not just be honest? Driven by digital agencies, content marketing used to be all about product – lists of product or services benefits skewed to meet the needs of consumers. Now it’s more about engagement, culture and […]
Peerless WordPress Support. 275 WordPress tickets, 580 support actions, 24hr response time under 7 hours and 100% satisfaction. January was another solid month for our Peerless WordPress Support team and takes our 100% client satisfaction run to 6 months! We care deeply about our clients, and that shows across all aspects of our support performance, […]
Silly Digital Predictions. Design Frameworks, Internet of Things, Wearables, Client-centric Marketing, Collaborative Consumption, Privacy/Security & SmartPay. It’s a bit daft predicting what’s going to be big in any given year as the market moves slow enough that the “big things” are already significant enough to be obvious. However, there are some big topics that are […]
Mobile first. Millennials. The millennial generation are those born after 1980 and the role they play in our digital society is pivotal and exploding. They crave a different world: Built around freedom, choice, agility and trust. This differs hugely from the previous generation (X) who chased stability, career, money and competition. As the millennial generation […]

Being us, by Martin Dower. Almost 20 years old and still a small company? Why growth for growths sake is pointless. I’ve not met a first-time entrepreneur who didn’t want to be the biggest and best in their field. Unsurprisingly, most fail. It seems that somewhere back in the mists of time every budding entrepreneur […]
by Nick Storr If you are a law firm planning to invest in a digital strategy, at the top of the list needs to be a plan to go mobile. In 2014 it is estimated that at least 50% of traffic to your site will be from mobile, and this needs to be catered for. […]
If like me you are still clinging on to your iPad1, iPhone 4 or old iPod touch, but repeatably get frustrated when attempting to download an app and it’s not supported on your current iOS device. Then this latest news will be music to your ears. Now, when you try to download an app Apple asks ‘would […]
The recent controversial announcement that will see kids of 13 being allowed onto LinkedIn is getting a lot of airplay. LinkedIn claim the reason is to allow (only just) teenagers to ability to choose their University – except that Universities don’t play a major part on LinkedIn. And, the 200m+ serious business types are surely […]
I love sharing with my friends how we work. Most still work in an office environment, 9 to 5 and some commute up to an hour just to get to work! Crazy I know! Recently Talk Sport radio had a feature calling them ‘office prisoners’ which I found pretty funny. I’ve been working from home […]

But there […]

Many of us have worked in companies that are strict and rigid with working patterns. I’m thinking here about the 9-5 slog, 30 mins for lunch, 25 days holiday, cubicles, desks and toxic meetings. And the daily 1hr commute. It’s modern day slavery with a twist; you are also paid the bare minimum for the […]
