4 min read by Rosie Denny 12 Dec 2022

We’ve got some exciting news.

StrategiQ is joining forces with Untapped Digital!

Untapped Digital, based in London, creates brilliant social media strategies for brands such as NatWest, Virgin StartUp and Kawasaki Engines alongside a wealth of clients in non-profit and higher education.

Under the watchful eye of Untapped Founder, Corrie Jones, these guys have won a stream of excellence awards for great work, including Social Media Brand Agency of the Year 2022, and Top Facebook Marketing Agency in London 2021.

From today, StrategiQ clients can also benefit from Untapped expertise, as Corrie joins StrategiQ as our Head of Social Media. Her team will deliver integrated and standalone social media management alongside StrategiQ’s current full suite of digital marketing services.

Corrie and her team – Victoria Dmitrenko, James Hinchcliffe and Jasmine Gilbert – is already well immersed in the StrategiQ way of life, working alongside the StrategiQ crew at our London office, or other bases at Ipswich or in the Midlands.

While delivery to clients on either side remains unchanged, from today, clients that already use StrategiQ for social media services can look forward to additional expertise and fresh thinking.

Word from our CEO, Andy Smith

We asked our CEO and Founder, Andy Smith, for his thoughts around the acquisition:

“Despite the talk around recession, we are facing this challenging period head on, making the most of the opportunity for growth in our sector by building our business to deliver the best value and strongest outcomes for our clients.”

“This is part of a considered growth strategy that factors in the challenges ahead. We want to send the message to our clients and the industry that you have to put your best foot forward – and make bold choices that ultimately set you apart from the competition. In doing so, we hope to give clients the confidence to do the same.”

Corrie, Founder of Untapped, on the partnership:

“We could not be more excited by this new partnership,” Corrie continues. “It’s thrilling to join forces with a full-service agency, whose employees bring so much passion to work every day. Plus, it’s critical that we have a shared vision: to deliver world-class social media services for ambitious brands”.

The Untapped team will make good use of our new London office, which we outgrew pretty shortly after moving into our first City home earlier this year. With headcount growing to 50 this year, this acquisition marks yet another milestone in our company’s growth. We look forward to sharing our annual highlights with you in our 2022 annual roundup before Christmas.

For now, it’s a big festive StrategiQ welcome to Corrie and the team!
