  • daniella wainwright — Wainwright consulting

    “Working with Thinksmart Marketing on our rebrand and new website was exactly what we needed. Clare and Emma took the time to understand who we are and how we work, then helped us articulate it online.

    The result feels like us - professional, grounded, and true to our Yorkshire roots and straight-talking style. Our new website does a much better job of showcasing what we do and who we're for. It's given us a platform we can build on as the business grows.

    The feedback since launch has been really positive, which tells us we've landed in the right place. We're pleased with how the rebrand represents Wainwright Consulting today and where we're headed next.”

  • Georgina Waite - Chief Executive, Abm

    Listened, understood, creative, inspired, calm and composed. The ThinkSmart team absolutely nailed it…….

     We couldn’t have experienced a better re-brand process. From the initial conversation to the focus groups with our members to hear their views to the different brand options. The whole process couldn’t have been more inclusive or smooth. The result, a modern, dynamic and professional brand which landed incredibly well with members and all our stakeholders.  

  • anita rodgers — Medical education leaders uk

    “We have been working with ThinkSmart Marketing for over 2 years and what a gift Clare and her team are.  From the outset they have demonstrated a high level of professionalism, taking the time to understand our brief and the wider objectives behind each project.

    What has consistently stood out is their creativity and ability to bring fresh, thoughtful ideas to our projects.  They have a remarkable ability to transform my often loosely formed ideas into visuals that clearly and effectively represent our organisation.

    Their delivery is exceptional.  Deadlines are always met, communication is clear and responsive and the final outputs are of an extremely high quality. They are reliable, collaborative, hugely supportive and a pleasure to work with. I would not hesitate to recommend them to any organisation looking for a talented and dependable design partner.”

  • anna foley - Business manager norton mayfield architects

    “Clare and Emma had a highly pragmatic approach throughout our project. They listened carefully to our aims and worked closely with us to achieve what we hoped for, offering thoughtful suggestions and considered insight where appropriate.

    We are thrilled with the outcome of our new website and really appreciated Think Smart's patience and understanding as we worked through our deliberations. We have thoroughly enjoyed working with them and look forward to continuing to work together in the future on additional marketing support”

  • dr Simon fraser — founder doctor’s training

    “It’s not often you come across a standout talent like Clare at ThinkSmart Marketing. I had the pleasure of working with Clare over the past year, during which she played a crucial role in helping us refine and tell our story at DoctorsTraining. From the outset, Clare and her team have brought a level of professionalism, creativity, and passion to our project that was truly inspiring.”

Easier said than done, right? Maybe. But if you take time to create a marketing plan and review your customer journey, it becomes far less of a challenge. And that’s where we can help.

We’ve seen too many businesses waste time and money on the wrong things because they haven’t got their marketing plan and customer journey in place. If you know who your customers are, the problems you solve for them, and how to keep them happy and loyal, then your marketing becomes far less complicated. You can deliver more with less.

Your brand is your most valuable asset in your business, so what happens when you no longer feel connected to the brand you have created? Are you struggling to form a connection with you customers? Is there a lack of consistency across your marketing? Or maybe you’re just not standing out?

Think Smart was founded on the belief that great marketing ideas don’t just happen between 9 and 5 sat behind a desk.

Clare’s always been someone who thinks differently. Some of the best ideas come while out running through the Yorkshire countryside or walking Alfie, her crazy cocker spaniel, with fresh air and space to think often sparking the next creative solution or strategy for a client.

That mindset still drives Think Smart today. Although the business has grown into a talented team of marketing specialists, the same energy, creativity and constant thinking sits at the heart of everything we do.

We’re not a “switch off at 5pm” kind of agency. We’re always thinking, always spotting opportunities and always looking for smarter ways to help our clients grow - and that’s the added value you get from Think Smart.
