Award-winning membership comms

“We engaged apt marketing & pr for an 18-month project to boost our team resource, work in partnership with our internal staff, and provide effective strategies and tactics for growth. Our membership was declining post-pandemic and their results helped us achieve our highest ever membership numbers and add almost 10,000 extra members and over £750,000 in additional revenue. From the outset, they provided quality resource, strategic insight, and marketing expertise, working seamlessly alongside our internal team. Their flexibility and ability to adapt to our evolving needs made them an invaluable extension of our organisation.”
Emma Griffiths

CEO, Friends of Westonbirt Arboretum

“One of the business development team said that a member commented on our increased profile the other day so your work is definitely having a positive impact”

“apt’s team of industry experts seamlessly integrated with the Friends of Westonbirt Arboretum team, providing invaluable market insights and additional resources, including a well-defined marketing strategy.

They weren’t afraid to try new ideas, which significantly boosted our efforts. Their collaborative approach and expertise felt like a true partnership. We worked as a single team with a shared goal, and it showed in the incredible results we achieved.

We highly recommend apt marketing & pr to any organisation looking to make a real impact.”
