Laser Red, the Lincolnshire-based creative marketing agency and digital specialist, has seen unprecedented levels of growth in 2022, despite many of its peers observing a post-pandemic drop-off from the digital gains made during lockdown.
The 2022 growth for Grimsby-based Laser Red has been such that in the last six months it has incresed its headcount by a third with 10 new hires across a range of disciplines and announced plans to open a second office in Lincoln.
The appointment of four new front and back-end developers means the digital expert now has increased capacity to handle developments of all shapes and sizes for its growing global client-base.
Meanwhile the appointments of a new project manager, designer, PPC marketing executive and an administrator have added considerably to the capability of the team to offer a range of creative and marketing solutions to clients from a broad range of industries.
The business also added a new accountant to its finance team in the second half of the year, followed in the autumn with the appointment of a head of PR and comms – a first for the agency – ahead of the launch of its new PR and comms arm.
“We ended 2021 strongly and wanted to hit the ground running in 2022, which we achieved with some great business wins,” said Laser Red MD Liam O’Leary. “We saw a huge uplift in enquiries in 2022 and it quickly became clear to me and the management team that we needed to invest in the team to ensure we could sustain our forward momentum.”
The award-winning agency can now offer a range of services from marketing, web design and branding, to mobile app and ecommerce platform development. The addition of the PR and communications offering means Laser Red can now fulfil all of its clients needs with a full range of complimentary services.
