WHAT WE OFFER
Your journey begins here
Whether you need just a bit of extra resource or a complete rethink (or something in between!), we are here to help.

Marketing Strategy
Orienting your market, really knowing your audience
Most people think of marketing as social media, posters, advertising and promotion (aka the colouring in department!). But this comes at the very end of the strategic process. We take you back to the beginning – orienting your market, really knowing your audience, and making sure what they want is front and centre in your strategic planning. Strategy is developed through techniques including those from Mark Ritson’s Mini MBA in Marketing, which Helen completed in 2019.
" Little But Loud's support was exceptional."

Fundraising Strategy
Kickstart your income generation and build profitable relationships.
Knowing where to start and just what’s available out there is key in fundraising. Our unique local experience in this highly competitive sector means we can put together a top class hit list of funders, opportunities and well-researched ideas that will kickstart your income generation and build profitable relationships.
"Helen's been transformational around our funding strategy, translating my ideas and strategic expansion projects into robust proposals."

Bid writing
Improve your chances of winning bids
Small organisations often lack the time or skills to write successful fundraising bids. This is where we come in – with experience of writing successful bids from funders such as the Arts Council, Youth Music, Berkshire Community Foundation and the Earley Charity we can improve your chances of winning bids, and help you to shape compelling grant applications.
"Little But Loud's unwavering efforts secured approximately £110k in a year."

Our Fractional Marketing Director service offers just this – long term commitment but with minimal hours and affordable costs. We put together the strategy and plans, and support your internal marketing or admin team to deliver the campaigns by picking up the day to day work.

Event production
Let us help with running your cultural, artistic or charity event
Charity events put a lot of extra stress on small teams. If you have a larger event that you would like support with please get in touch. You can either outsource the whole event to us, or bring us in to help with fundraising, production, promotion, organisation or impact reporting. We’ve worked with organisations across Reading and Berkshire on parades, festivals, corporate events and more.
"Helen is a brilliant producer, great to work with and bursting with passion and dynamic thinking."
Danielle Corbishley, Beautiful Creatures
Ad-hoc Marketing Support
Need a new website but don’t know where to start?
Want to update and freshen your brand without alienating your audience? Need a plan for social media but not sure what will work? Whatever the project or campaign, we can share the load and help you and your team to achieve your marketing goals on time, on brief and on budget.
"Helen managed my new website development from start to finish. The process was quick and efficient, and extremely professional."

Our rates
INVESTMENT
We like to start our client relationships as we mean to go on – with transparency, clarity and information sharing up front. So (unlike most agencies) our fees are not mysterious, variable, or only available to clients.
We work on a day rate of £350
Our schools day rate is £300
Our charities day rate is £250
Project work is costed on this basis, but we are happy to quote as a full project rather than a daily rate if this works better for your budget.
