WEEK PROJECT DELIVERY

[ OUR PROCESS ]

We start by understanding where you are, what's working and what isn't. Together, we select the right service mix, assign the right people, and build in a way that compounds over time.

01

Discover

Every project begins with a discovery call so we understand how best to support the brand. For start-ups, that means understanding the vision, the ambition and what you’re trying to build. For established brands, we audit what’s already in place, identifying gaps, inefficiencies and missed opportunities across brand, marketing and customer journey.

02

plan

Once we understand the landscape, we build a tailored plan around what’s realistically achievable within the timeframe and available brand resources. We recommend the right service mix, identify the platforms, systems and tools required, agree what good results look like, and map out the ideal sequence of events.

03

Execute

Once the plan is in place, we move into delivery. Senior people stay close to the work, executing against the agreed priorities and refining quickly based on performance, feedback and commercial data. You’ll also have one consistent point of contact from discovery through to completion, alongside visibility into project management and progress tracking for full transparency throughout the process.

    04

    scale

    Once the initial scope is complete, the focus shifts from building to compounding. We double down on what’s driving results, and introduce the systems, automation and operational infrastructure needed to sharpen performance and deliver sustainable growth.

    The Popular Agency are a fantastic partner to work with. They consistently deliver great results and are incredibly supportive throughout every stage of the process.

    lucy hanning, creative director, juicy flowers

    Chloe & Amanda were absolutely amazing from my very first enquiry right through to the very end. The difference between The Popular Agency and my previous agency was night and day. They really listened, understood exactly what I wanted, and executed it all beautifully. Even now, I can message them whenever I need advice, which means so much! I can’t recommend them enough.

    jack denman, founder & ceo, madrugada hospitality

    Launching across both London and Dubai brought huge opportunities alongside real operational complexity, but The Popular Agency understood both markets perfectly and helped us navigate with confidence.

    simon bays, founder, pleasure events

    What they delivered far exceeded our expectations, achieving an excellent return on ad spend and overhauling our email marketing and CRM systems to make audience management so much easier.

    daniel foy, founder & ceo, agrigates

    Our growth challenge was complex and unique to our market, but The Popular Agency built a strategy tailored to our goals and the results were exceptional. CAC came down, contribution margin went up, and we finally have a measurement model we can actually trust.

    Emmett hedigan, co-founder, brew tech

    They changed how we talk about our company and gave us the strong foundations we needed.

    graham atkinson, co-founder, ghost gastro group

    Expanding into new international markets can be overwhelming, but The Popular Agency made the entire process feel clear. From positioning and launch strategy to understanding local audiences, they helped us introduce our concepts overseas without losing what make the brands special.

    FAQs

    Brands → The Popular Agency

    What kind of brands do you work with?

    DTC and ecommerce brands, hospitality venues, lifestyle and entertainment. Most of our work sits in those four sectors because that's where our team has the deepest operating experience. If you're outside them but the work is interesting, ask anyway!

    Do you work project-by-project or on retainer?

    Both. Brand and web tends to start as a project. Paid social, SEO and lifecycle tend to live in  retainer world because the work compounds. The right course of action usually becomes clear in the first call once we learn more about your goals.

    How long until we see results?

    Paid social and Google Ads can show movement in 30 days if the foundations are right. Lifecycle and CRO usually pay back within 60. SEO is the long-term investment, with the biggest compound returns emerging past month six.

    Where are you based and how do you work?

    Edinburgh, working with brands across the UK and beyond. Most of the work is remote with regular video, written updates and a shared workspace. If you're close, we'll come to you. If you're not, we still find ways to be in the room when it matters.

    How do we get started?

    Book a discovery call. We'll talk through where you are, what you're trying to do and where the gaps are. If we're the right fit, we send a proposal within a week. If we're not, we'll tell you who is.

    FAQs

    The Popular Agency → Brands

    What does success look like in six months?

    We work better when the destination is concrete. Revenue target, audience growth, brand outcome, opening week, fundraise milestone. Vague briefs make vague work. Tell us the goal and we'll work backwards from it.

    Who owns marketing internally?

    Whether it's a founder, an in-house marketing lead or no-one yet, we can help.
    All we to know is who can sign off creative, who can approve spend and who keeps the wheels turning between meetings so that we can deliver.

    What's your current paid media spend, if any?

    We don't have a minimum, but the answer changes the strategy. If you're at zero, we'll build the foundation before scaling. If you're already at £20k a month, we'll audit and optimise first. Either way, we won't recommend more spend than the channel can take.

    Is the current priority revenue, brand, or both?

    Most teams want both. Almost no one can resource both at the same intensity at the same time. We'll help you decide what to push, and in what order, to get you where you want to be.

    Are you ready to move?

    The best work happens when pace aligns on both sides. Fast-moving projects only stay smooth when communication, feedback and approvals move at a similar speed throughout the process. If there are internal sign-off delays, planned absences or shifting timelines, tell us upfront and we'll build around them.
