Capabilities

IT'S ALL POSSIBLE

From forensic strategic thinking, to holy cow creative ideas and agile, never-drop-a-ball production, we’re a collective of specialists focused on making Big Positive Impacts for our clients.

Design and branding

We work with existing and new brands to develop compelling propositions and platforms. Our work with companies like ScS, Rachel’s Organic, Toolstation and Stellantis now influences every aspect of their business.

Advertising

We use advertising to create Big Positive Impacts, to transform peoples’ reaction to a brand from an eye roll to a welcome, and ultimately change how much time people are happy to spend in a brand’s company.

Social

Our team of social experts have developed 'social sense', a methodology to help brands navigate the choppy waters of social. We believe brand social should always be about doing good, or helping people feel good.

Digital

Our digital team is crucial in delivering fully integrated campaigns. But they also have their very own 'digital clients', for who they do fully immersive interactive experiences to fully programmatic deployment and everything in between.

Customer Experience

Ignore anybody who tells you that customer experience needs to be complicated. Our team of CX experts will help you break down complex problems into manageable, affordable solutions so you can deliver rapid, measurable improvements in your organisation.

Content

Our in-house team, kworks, delivers cost effective content for use across all social and media channels. With facilities in Norwich, Leicester and London we can cover every aspect of content production from writing to filming, and editing to distribution.

B2B

Our B2B teams are our hidden gem, consistently fusing brilliant sector knowledge with creativity to deliver long-term solutions across a wide range of clients. A testament to their good work is that our two longest client relationships (18 and 22 years) are both B2B clients.

Direct and CRM

For many of our clients a one-to-one relationship with prospects or customers is key. Working with contemporary, often mind-bending technology our team are experienced in developing full customer journey programmes through to tactical sales drivers.

Experiential

For some brands and consumers the only way is up-close and personal. We love everything from pop-up sampling through to giant shows where cars appear by magic (thanks Dynamo!). Ideas are our start point, but we know that without brilliant production and logistics, stuff doesn’t happen.

Retail

With clients like ScS, Toolstation and MODA we get retail. Our IPA Gold Effectiveness Award for DFS in 2018 was a thumping stamp of approval from the rest of the industry.

Sport

Mongoose is our specialist sports marketing agency and provide a 360° offering. From rights holder brokering through to programme activation, they have it covered.

Leadership

We are our people

John started krow in 2005 with three friends following 5 years as the President of Arc EMEA (the Integrated Digital, Data and CRM division of Leo Burnett). Krow joined mission in 2017 and he took on the role of krow group CEO as three other business units were merged to form krow Group. Since then his focus has been on working with the group’s clients to help them grow and develop their businesses whilst making sure that krow keeps pace with the world around it, unlike his golf.
