About RATE

Marketing is
half art,
half science.

Mixing the two is what we love.

Rate Marketing was founded by Katie, a marketer who couldn’t find an agency that sits alongside the businesses it works with, and so she decided to build just that.

Based in Nottingham, East Midlands, Rate is a senior-led collective marketing studio. Marketing strategy, creative and web design all under one roof, with a bench of trusted specialists brought in when the work needs it. One lead who knows the business inside out, supported by the right people for each brief.

The collective

Senior-led. The right people for the brief.

A senior core with a deep bench of specialists, assembled around what each project actually needs. You get one lead who knows the full picture, a team that flexes with the work, and every discipline pulling in the same direction. Our Nottingham studio can help

Disciplines on the bench
Strategy Creative Content Social Web
One point of contact

A senior lead who understands the whole picture, stays across every moving part and keeps the work connected.

One cohesive plan

Strategy, creative and web briefed once, joined up and accountable to the same goals.

Scales with you

Bring in exactly the specialists each phase needs, then flex back down. You only ever pay for what the work requires.

Katie Quinn, founder of RATE Marketing
Rate exists because I wanted to build something where the strategy and the creative come from the same place, and where every business gets the kind of marketing support they actually need.
