True through the line
Through-the-line. Plenty of agencies promise it – total excellence from strategy to concept to delivery. But the fact is, many are only good at some parts of the chain.
At Cite, we believe in great work with no weak links. With our Know How, Can Do approach, we fuse strategy, creative thinking and tech innovation into one seamless process. Multi-disciplinary skills, with the efficiency of a single agency.
Understanding brands and their customers
Insight is the key to planning effective communication. Our Insight Team expertly uncover those brand truths which might otherwise be missed. We combine time-honoured approaches like qualitative and qualitative research with the latest data-driven and AI-assisted technologies. The combined result is explosive!
Creative excellence
It takes creative brilliance to see the world differently. Our award-winning creative team loves to deliver the unexpected. With every brief, we set out to delight, surprise, inspire and sometimes, even challenge our clients.
Online or on-the-ground, our award-winning campaigns connect brands with their audiences wherever and however they consume their media.
No matter the audience, a great creative idea brilliantly crafted gives any brand the best possible chance to shine. Decades of experience and a passion to create, mean that every piece of work we make hits the spot.
Exceptional digital experiences
Audiences have never been easier to reach and more difficult to engage. Websites, apps, ecommerce stores, social media, virtual worlds and digital advertising. The online opportunities for brands to connect with customers appears endless. Our digital team understands how to bring these media together in innovative new ways, delivering the exceptional user experiences that consumers have grown to expect.
Listen and learn
Creative thinking is not an exact science, but science applied intelligently can unlock the full potential of our creative. We therefore place a strong emphasis on gathering, analysing and learning from real-world data. We undertake thorough research at the start of a project and forensically examine campaign data to gauge success and understand where to explore next.
