Soap Media named top UK B2B company for three years running

By Soap Media

24 Feb 2020

North West digital marketing agency Soap Media has been awarded for being a top UK B2B Partner for the third year in a row.  

The award-winning agency has been named one of 2020’s top B2B companies in the UK for advertising and marketing by Clutch, a world-leading reviews and ratings platform.

Clutch assesses businesses by interviewing customers about different key areas including quality, attention to schedules, and cost efficiency. Soap Media’s results, which included five-star reviews across the board, have seen the agency appear at the top end of the UK’s 350 B2B companies for 2020.  

This means it is the third consecutive year that the agency, which is based in Preston and Manchester, has won Clutch awards for the services it provides. This includes being named a global leader amongst B2B service providers in 2018, and being listed as one of the top PPC management services in the UK in 2019. 

Markerle Davis, managing director of Soap Media, said: “It’s wonderful news for Clutch to name us one of the UK’s top B2B companies for advertising and marketing, recognising us as a leader in our field. We have won a lot of awards over the years, but the Clutch Awards mean so much because they are based on detailed reviews of what our clients think.  

“In today’s saturated B2B market, it’s essential to not just stand out to clients for the right reasons, but go that bit further - treating them as a partner, rather than a business customer, to deliver them the best possible results,” he added. “We always go above and beyond for our clients and this tremendous achievement is a reflection of that.

“This is a fantastic start to 2020 and to a new decade for our highly skilled, dedicated, and hardworking team.”   

We have won a lot of awards over the years, but the Clutch Awards mean so much because they are based on detailed reviews of what our clients think.  

In addition to their Clutch success, the Soap Media team have also been recognised by the company’s sister site, The Manifest - a platform to grow online presence through business data and rankings. This includes winning a place on their directory of top performing SEO firms in Manchester. 

Clutch founder Mike Beares, said, of those businesses named as top B2B partners: “These companies stand out because of the positive feedback their clients have shared with the Clutch team. The quality of their verified reviews shows that they know how to deliver exceptional work to their clients.

“As more companies highlight their leadership in the industry and build their online reputation through third-party reviews, I hope the process of finding the right service provider becomes easier for business decision makers,” he said.
