Power of individuality
  • Power of individuality

    Our team of experts uses data-driven insights and A/B testing to optimize our clients’ campaigns, focusing on the channels that deliver the best results and drive the most engagement. We also understand the importance of personalization in marketing. Our team works collaboratively with our design team or your internal teams to crafts tailored messages for each channel and audience segment, increasing the likelihood of resonating with their target audience and generating a response.

    Maintaining a consistent brand image and message across all channels is also critical, and our team works closely with our clients to reinforce their brand recognition and build trust with their audience.

Research and audit
  • Research and audit

    We believe that research and auditing are crucial steps in helping our clients achieve their marketing goals. That’s why it is vital to thoroughly research and audit our clients’ previous and current campaigns before starting any new campaign plans. By conducting research and an audit, we can gain a deep understanding of our clients’ target audience, brand identity, and marketing goals.

    The data and information collated during this phase is essential in creating a customized and effective marketing strategy that meets the specific needs of our clients.

Analysing further
  • Analysing further

    Auditing previous work content allows us to identify areas for improvement and make recommendations that can help drive better results. By reviewing your past campaigns and strategies, we can determine what has worked well and what needs to be changed to achieve better results.

    Moreover, researching and auditing our clients’ work content helps us understand the competitive landscape and the market trends in their industry. This information is crucial in developing a campaign that stands out from the competition and reaches their target audience in a unique and impactful way.

    Using the above, our team of experts uses this information to create customized and effective advertising strategies that help our clients achieve their business goals.

By presenting data-driven insights and actionable suggestions, the agency can position itself as a trusted and valuable partner to your business. By having a clear understanding of what has worked in the past, our teams can make informed decisions on where to allocate resources and what strategies to pursue going forward.

Using emerging channels
  • Using emerging channels

    Our team of paid media specialists are always looking for ways to stay ahead of the curve and stay on top of the latest marketing trends That’s why we have embraced emerging channels such as Twitch and TikTok and integrated them into our paid media campaigns. Twitch and TikTok are popular platforms that are used by millions of people, especially younger generations.

    However, a number of brands are still wary about using these emerging platforms and tend to allocate a large proportion of their advertising budget to the same channels. By leveraging these channels, we can reach a wider audience and tap into new market segments that may have been previously untapped.

Website Support FAQs

  • What are your website support and maintenance services?

    Our website maintenance and support packages includes time that can be used to improve/update and technical components of your website, anything from new features to correcting errors.

    These can be errors in the code, in the content or in graphics, video and images.

    Support time is commonly used to solve problems with Google Page Speed, for example too many large images, slow time to first paint issues or too many plugins which all slow down the page loading and produce a negative experience for the user.

    We will regularly review your CMS and, when needed, we will apply the following to keep the platform up to date:

    • Security patches
    • Theme updates
    • CMS updates
    • Plugin updates
  • What are your website hosting services?

    Essentially, this service is what keeps your website on the internet. Websites are hosted on servers, which is what a browser connects to when someone types a given URL.

    If you host with FINN Partners, users typing your website’s URL will be connected to our servers and it will deliver your website to their browser.

  • What are your maintenance office hours?

    Our office hours support service availability is as follows:

    Ticketing Systems:
    24 hours a day

    Telephone support:
    09:00 to 17:30 Monday – Friday

    Out of hours support:
    Weekend support and emergency numbers can be provided. Any weekend work will be charged at 1.5 x standard hourly rate

  • How do you classify a website bug or issue?

    We categorize Bugs or Issues as follows:

    • P1 – Website is down or is corrupting data
    • P2 – Critical issue for which there is no work around, and a certain process cannot continue – but other areas of the website are still functioning correctly
    • P3 – Non-critical issue which can be scheduled for completion in due course

  • How quickly do you respond to website bugs or issues?

    We will respond to all service-related incidents and/or requests submitted by the Customer within 2 hours.

    Once we have reviewed and assessed the website issue, we will mutually agree the priority level of any given task and the appropriate website fix will be scheduled for completion.

    We will endeavour to complete fixes within the following timeframes:

    • P1 tasks – 4 hours
    • P2 tasks – 48 hours
    • P3 tasks – 5 working days
    The above timings are met in the vast majority of instances; however, task turnaround times are predominantly determined by the extent of the work required and the communication with you as to the exact brief/specifications.

    For example, it would not be possible for a complex task taking a week, even at P2, to completed within 48 hours.
