Midlands-based marketing agency, Gough Bailey Wright, has added a new client to its expanding list after a competitive pitch – high-end luxury upholstery company, Whitehead Designs.
The family-run company is based in Long Eaton, Derbyshire, where its dedicated craftsmen hand make all of its exquisite furniture pieces. After searching for an agency that could provide an all-encompassing marketing campaign, Gough Bailey Wright’s seamless presentation and portfolio of work won out and the full-service agency was drafted in to re-design its website and brochure.
Whitehead Designs has been so pleased with the work carried out that it has now employed Gough Bailey Wright to run an ongoing PR and social media campaign to raise its profile in the consumer market.
Rob Whitehead, managing director at Whitehead Designs, explains: “We have built an excellent reputation within our own trade and work closely with interior designers who select our products for their clients. But we are now keen, with the help of the team at Gough Bailey Wright, to extend our reach into the consumer market.
“The agency has very strong contacts in the national press and high-end glossy magazines that we are targeting which will help us to raise our profile and ensure we reach a wider audience.”
Sue Bailey, managing director at Gough Bailey Wright, said: “We are delighted to add Whitehead Designs to our client list. Their craftsmanship and passion for upholstery is second-to-none and our team is eager to promote their beautiful furniture and expertise to a wider audience.”
Rob Whitehead continues: “We are really impressed with the quality and extent of services that Gough Bailey Wright offers and we are looking forward to working with them to implement a successful PR and social media campaign.”
Whitehead Designs is a family-owned, family-run business with three decades of British handmade craftsmanship and quality that is unparalleled in the upholstery industry.
