Bates UK’s offering is unique. For clients looking for an agency with a large creative resource in breadth and depth and an ability to produce outstanding advertising that builds brands and sells products, we are amongst the best. We are able to deliver a unique flexibility of resource whether operating in a single discipline, or within a fully integrated multi–media campaign. We deliver day in, day out for our clients – helping Sky achieve 7 million satellite subscriptions, helping Royal Mail take on the electronic world with Elton John and helping B&Q achieve 43% unrivalled market share.

We are driven by one key objective – the relentless pursuit of our clients success. We achieve this by adopting a philosophy we call ‘The return on imagination’. This ensures we produce communication campaigns that inspire our audiences to act, build and develop brands and most importantly - drives sales.

Over the last 18 months we have transformed ourselves from being a leading brand campaign agency, operating along traditional agency lines, to the largest integrated communications agency in the UK.

Across all communication disciplines we have one planning department (including data planners), one creative department comprising of ATL, BTL, SP and Retail Response departments all reporting in to one Executive Creative Director. We are a big agency that produces big ideas at low cost, at speed (where it is required) and that delivers tangible returns on the investment.

Our philosophy of ‘think global, act local’ has helped us leverage world – class regional expertise with the strength of a global power house.
