Fantastic Media wins Precision Timber and Bailie Group

Leeds full-service marketing agency Fantastic Media has started the fourth quarter with two new clients.

It has been appointed by Rotherham-based Precision Timber, which makes sustainable outdoor playground equipment, and by national investment house Bailie Group.

Both businesses will go through Fantastic’s collaborative ‘INSIGHT’ programme to shape their marketing strategy and refresh their brand positioning. Each will also get a detailed 12-month marketing strategy with clear objectives, timelines and measures of success.

Leeds-headquartered Bailie Group works with business owners who want to sell and exit their companies, providing self-funded investment and a strategic plan for acquisition. Fantastic will refresh its brand and website, improving the user experience with simpler navigation, engaging copy and modern design.

Precision Timber is a family-owned playground supplier specialising in natural designs and high-quality, sustainable outdoor equipment. Its customers include schools, nurseries, parks, local attractions, local authorities, hospitality businesses and commercial sites. As it moves into new sectors, Fantastic will run paid digital campaigns to build awareness and generate leads.

Gary Pattison, director of strategy and INSIGHT at Fantastic Media, said: “Our job as an agency is to take businesses to the next level, through real strategy that’s grounded in insight and delivers real impact. While Precision Timber and Bailie Group are very different in their markets, the fundamentals of our INSIGHT process remains the same; getting under the skin of each brand and defining how best to communicate their strengths to the right audiences.

“Both firms will now benefit from this comprehensive strategic insight going forward, with a clear, collaborative plan that sets the direction for the future.”

Fantastic Media provides strategy, digital, website development, PR, social media and content for clients including STADA Thornton & Ross, British Weightlifting, Trojan Group, Schades Group, Huddersfield Town AFC and Skopes Menswear. It was founded in 2006 by CEO Andy Hobson and has a team of 27.
