an Experienced Team
Our team have been with us for an average of eight years and have all previously worked in a marcoms agency, client side marketing team or technology business.
knowing who to target ...
The data platform we use tells us which clients to target and when through the tracking of reviews, investment, new appointments and historical patterns.
... HOW TO REACH THEM ...
The LinkedIn plugin we use unearths the contact details of even the most difficult to reach CMO or CTO. Direct lines, email addresses and even mobile phone numbers.
... and how to convert them.
We use A.I. to analyse the profile of the decision maker; knowing their personality type enables us to match their style which results in more conversions.

Our focus

Delivering Targeted Opportunities.

We specialise in helping marketing communications agencies and technology businesses win more clients by finding new business opportunities for them with the decision makers for their service within the companies they want to work with.

Only those companies and brands we have identified as being a good fit for your business and that you have agreed for us to target will be approached on your behalf.

The channels we use fall into three categories: Broadcast, Listening and Narrowcast.

Testimonials

What Our Clients Say

Big compliment from the client for our account director today, they said she was great and that they don’t normally see creative companies (they get inundated with calls apparently).

They told me in the meeting she was very nice and professional and she’d done awfully well to get us in front of them. Meeting went well and looks positive. Well done!

MD of a Full Service Agency

Manifest has been working with us for over a year, providing strategic consultancy and lead generation services. They’ve become an invaluable partner for us and an extension of our team here.

Their appointment has given our new business effort wings, and we enjoy working with their highly professional and results-oriented team. If you’re not already working with them, and aren’t competitive to us, you should be speaking to them.

Partner of Advertising Agency

I have worked with Manifest for almost 10 years now and used them at three different agencies and consider them an important part of my business operations. I have used different agencies in this space in the past and none has delivered the consistency of results and impact that I’ve come to expect of Manifest.

Their systems, their data and detail, but most importantly their people are of a high standard and I would recommend them with genuine enthusiasm and conviction.
