About Duo Consulting

Duo Consulting is a team of senior PR and strategic communications consultants helping marketing, communications, and executive leaders enhance business reputation and drive growth.

We partner with UK-headquartered companies that are innovating and expanding. And international businesses venturing into or growing within the UK and European markets.

Our clients include Defaqto, Manchester Building Society, SafetyCulture, and Vypr.

Why talk to us?

Because our clients work directly with senior consultants who are outstanding at what they do – and whose focus is on applying their expertise, not managing layers of people.

This approach ensures that our clients receive expertise tailored to their specific needs, engage with passionate consultants eager to collaborate, and benefit from the seniority that fosters immediate and trusted, peer-like relationships.

Recognising the work we do to raise the profile of businesses scaling from Manchester, we were named a winner at the Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce Excellence Awards 2025.

After working with a traditional London PR agency, we moved to Duo to strengthen our UK PR and press office support – initially on a project basis before moving to a retained partnership. We love working with Duo. The senior expertise and close collaboration we get from the team continue to deliver brilliant results year after year. Pound for pound, I’ve not worked with a better international PR consultancy.

Working with the team at Duo has been a fantastic experience. Their strong strategic approach to comms and PR has enabled Defaqto to drive significant awareness across multiple audiences and support business growth. They provide excellent support to executive leadership, offering guidance and communications at moments that matter. The team is highly collaborative, dependable, and proactive, always focused on delivering results. They effectively act as an excellent extension of the internal marketing team.

Duo has delivered a step change in exposure for our business. Prior to our acquisition by Marlowe plc they developed multiple strategies to showcase our expertise to target sector audiences and other important stakeholders. Through quickly forming trusted relationships with many of our internal team, they’ve since played a vital role in establishing our new WorkNest brand in the market. A hugely dependable partner and a real ally to our marketing engine.

Duo’s work to establish our brand in trade press and wider national media has enormously boosted our brand visibility and industry reputation. In tandem with our other marketing activities, we can see the correlation between quality press coverage, inbound site traffic, and marketing and sales leads. The wide exposure in the media has also helped equip our Marketing, Sales, and Customer Growth teams to showcase Vypr’s sector expertise to prospects and customers and is a vital ingredient for our next phase of growth.

We were grappling with a perfect storm of strategic priorities to deliver and gaps in our team. Duo came on board with a can do attitude, clarity of thinking and brilliant people skills, immediately feeling like part of the team. Within weeks they had both set a clear strategy and started delivering opportunities. Once we were back to full capacity they had set a long term vision our team could pick up and run with. The perfect partner. This is an agency that thrives on collaboration, can adapt to a moving brief, and absolutely has its clients’ goals at heart.
