Soap named among best of the digital agencies

By Tim Aldred

05 Jan 2021

Preston-based digital marketing agency Soap has secured two global Clutch awards and a listing in the Drum’s Top 100 Independent Agencies.

The Drum Top 100 is considered the most important index of its kind within the digital marketing industry, determined via a detailed analysis of two years of financial performance. This data is extracted via Census, an independent agency which analyses turnover, turnover growth, turnover percentage growth, turnover per head, gross profit and gross profit growth.

Clutch is perceived internationally as a sophisticated 'Trustpilot for business services', using review insights and client interviews as part of how they decide their awards. The organisation collates data from extensive client feedback across for a variety of business services, not just digital agencies.

Soap now boasts one of the best client satisfaction scores in the world. It’s the fourth consecutive year Soap has been awarded by the platform, scooping the dual honours of Top Global B2B Partner alongside being added to their Top 1000 global companies list.

Markerle Davis, CEO of Soap Media, said: "We’re delighted to be starting 2021 on a real high with recognition from two of the industry’s most trusted and respected award platforms. It’s the fourth consecutive year we’ve been honoured by Clutch, with these two awards proving that we are in the global elite.

"The Drum Top 100 nomination is also a significant achievement for us. Whilst we’ve won a lot of awards over the years, this is pretty much the gold standard for our industry. You only have to look at the other agencies who have been included in the past to realise how well we’ve done."
