For over 25 years, we’ve helped mid-market SMEs turn their ambitions into reality. When digital feels complex and overwhelming, we bring the clarity you and your business need to reach your customers, elevate your online presence, and achieve sustainable growth.
You’ll receive campaigns that deliver real, measurable results, along with strategic advice to tackle your toughest digital challenges. Whether we’re supporting your in-house marketing team or designing a resilient digital marketing strategy in a constantly evolving landscape, you’ll have commercially savvy digital specialists in your corner who understand what you’re up against and how to move forward.
We never set out to be just another digital marketing agency. After a decade in the business, I’ve seen how easy it is to get distracted by trends and shiny new tools – but none of that means anything if it doesn’t move the business forward. Our focus has always been on building genuine partnerships. We take the time to understand our clients properly – their market, their customers, and what’s keeping them up at night – and we’re not afraid to challenge what’s not working. I’m not interested in doing work that just looks good on a slide deck. I’m interested in the kind that makes a difference to the bottom line.

SQ Digital provided SEO for a stone importation company. They aimed to write blog content and website design to increase the client's Google ranking.
SQ Digital successfully ranked the client on several core keywords. The communication was prompt and they were very knowledgeable. One project didn't work out, and they could've used more coherence in their strategy. However, there is an overall increase.
