The Wonderful Wig Company
Review by the Managing Director of the UK’s leading Human Hair Wig Supplier, the Wonderful Wig Company’s Nicola Wood.
“There is never a problem with Mick, only a choice of creative solutions.”
I had the pleasure of working with Mick for a year in 2021 as an integral part of my business which makes and provides wigs for those with medical hair loss.
We brought Mick on during the pandemic to be our Head of Marketing, as I felt the small part-time team I had were lacking in direction. We had the capability to help more people and we had the right product, but we needed the expertise to tell our message online and generate more sales. We also were keen to have a more sustainable brand and onboarded Mick with his vast knowledge of this subject to deliver a new sustainability policy.
Mick's attitude to working is brilliant, he brings light and fun into any situation, given that the nature of what we do is very delicate, Mick always found a way to lighten the mood. His positivity radiated and the whole team loved working with him. Within a few short weeks Mick knew the pinpoints of customers and had clearly identified each customer archetype, he then built a marketing plan around each customer and platform to reach each type of customer.
His creative vision is brilliant, his ideas are young, current and vibrant. His content creation is excellent and he is able to work with whatever brief you may give him. Videography and photography come as second nature to Mick. The content created really boosted our sales, engagement and brand awareness as the creative content drove website clicks.
Mick also headed up all our written copywriting, website copy, press releases, product descriptions, blogs and he writes fabulous stories that connect perfectly with the relevant target market.
In the year Mick was with the Wonderful Wig Company our turnover increased by over 100%, we won a national industry award and increased our social media engagement on all of our platforms. Mick also set up our TikTok and Pinterest social media accounts. Pinterest increased from under 100 views a month to over 2 million views a month in less than 6 months. Our new Tik Tok opened by Mick grew from zero followers to over 8,000 followers and in excess of 6 million views in less than 6 months. The increased social media activity drove hits to our website and increased sales & profit.
I would not hesitate to recommend Mick as a marketing and business consultant. He is passionate, committed and results driven. The results speak for themselves and Mick is honestly a breath of fresh air to work with. There is never a problem with Mick, only a choice of creative solutions.
Newcastle Wheelchair Rugby
Review by the Adam Robson of Newcastle Wheelchair Rugby Club
We now rank number 1 on Google for ‘Newcastle Wheelchair Rugby’.
SeaPigs8 took over our marketing and within weeks the results were clear to see. SeaPigs built our website, set up our online sustainable clothes shop, created content for all our platforms and worked with all our outgoing and internal communication. The club has grown substantially online and the brand awareness is apparent in the game participation. New subscribed players increased by 60% and volunteers increased by a further 40%.
Mick and his team followed the brief to perfection, our mission was not to gain awareness just for our club, but to grow awareness of wheelchair sport in the North East. The increased brand awareness and PR have enabled the club to gain new sponsors and benefactors.
SeaPigs8 are also working with us to launch our new Wheelchair Rugby Corporate Team Building days. Mick and the team have been working on designing a product that will be launched in the UK to corporate teams looking to have fun while building team morale and camaraderie. SeaPigs8 have held a number of prototype events and recently successfully hosted our first corporate event with Siemens UK.
We highly recommend Mick and SeaPigs8 as they are amazing at creating engaging content that will market you to a broad general appeal. After Mick launched our Tik Tok page within 6 months we had over 23,-00 followers, 600,000 likes and over 30 million views. All our other social media accounts saw an increase of reach and engagement by a minimum of 130%. SeaPigs8 built our website, undertook all the copywriting, took all the images and shot all the videos, plus they also carried out all the SEO work on our website. We now rank number 1 on Google for ‘Newcastle Wheelchair Rugby’, which is important for our visibility and credibility.
