"NXO is a franchise with a difference.  Only open to people with a marketing background, NXO provides the opportunity to run your own strategic marketing consultancy, supported by an existing full service agency with a ten year track record of success."

"Franchisees are linked to the creative hub and each other by a unique intranet-based process management system. This allows franchisees to track work as it progresses through the creative hub."

"Research has shown that many mid-sized SMEs currently do marketing badly or not at all. With more than 4 million SMEs in the UK and growing, NXO is set to forge a niche on a national scale between the big “city” agencies and traditional regional agencies to service this growing sector in need of quality marketing services."

Unique Opportunity from UK’s Only Strategic Marketing Agency Franchise

nxo is a franchise with a difference. Only open to people with a marketing background, nxo provides the opportunity to run your own strategic marketing consultancy, supported by an existing full service agency with a twelve year track record of success.

What is nxo?

nxo is a UK-wide franchised network of marketing consultancies providing full service agency solutions to SMEs (small to medium enterprises) Blue Chip and regional public sector organisations both at a strategic and tactical level. As the first and only strategic marketing agency franchise in the UK, nxo provides an unrivalled opportunity for people with marketing experience, either agency or in-house, to set up and run their own agency with the support of a full range of tactical marketing communications services delivered through the nxo Creative Hub (pictured left). The nxo Strategic Marketing Network has the added benefit of providing links between fellow franchisees who have a vast array of individual experience, providing an important support network and the opportunity for exciting collaborative projects. This unique knowledge pool adds value to the nxo offer to franchisees and the franchisees offer to clients. All nxo franchisees know that clients get better solutions if the brief is right and that getting the brief right, means doing the right thinking. nxo franchisees have all been “heavyweights” so they deliver the strategic thinking (and in our experience, even smallest brief benefits from strategic thinking). Creative tactical work of all types – branding, web and literature design PR, events, advertising etc – is then produced at discounted rates, reflecting our highly effective business model.

Training and Support

Full training is provided in how to win clients, sell tactical solutions, project manage tactical projects and nxo processes. Franchisees are linked to the nxo Creative Hub and each other by a unique intranet-based process management system. This allows franchisees to track work as it progresses through the nxo Creative Hub. Franchisees receive a substantial discount on all tactical hours, which they mark up to cover their project management and client liaison activity. Franchisees are provided with comprehensive, on going, one-to-one mentoring and attend regular franchise forums where franchisees can meet and share experiences. The nxo Creative Hub also provides a centralised call handling/message taking service, branded templates and documentation.

Our Target Markets

Research has shown that many mid-sized SMEs currently do marketing badly or not at all. With more than 4 million SMEs in the UK and growing, nxo is set to forge a niche on a national scale between the big city agencies and traditional regional agencies to service this growing sector in need of quality marketing services. The nxo Strategic Marketing Network has the added benefit of providing links between fellow franchisees who have a vast array of individual sector experience and skills. This unique “knowledge pool” means that franchisees can call on the experience of other franchisees to win a client or deliver a brief. nxo franchisees have a blend of experience, working with SMEs to Blue Chip companies. This provides a strong selling point when pitching for new clients, as there is enough support in the network to cater for the needs of the potential client, even if the area is not your speciality. The nxo client base ranges from famous brands to SMEs. Projects vary from small or one off requirements for start ups to full out sourcing of the marketing function.
