Innovation Award winners Football Business Awards A digital marketing agency that moves your business
Award-winning digital marketing services from one team: AI consultancy and training, mobile apps, websites, social media, email marketing, graphic design and SEO. Personal service, from Shropshire to the whole of the UK.
What does a digital marketing agency do?
A digital marketing agency helps a business get found, get chosen and get remembered online. For us, that means the websites and mobile apps your customers use, the social media, email marketing and SEO that bring them there, the graphic design that makes it all look like you, and AI training that saves your team time.
We’re a full service digital marketing agency based in Shropshire, UK and working with businesses across the UK. Because everything sits with one team, your website, socials and emails tell the same story, and you deal with people who know your business instead of juggling several suppliers.
Since 2021 we’ve completed more than 100 projects, from award-winning football club apps to restaurants, event companies and start-ups. Most of our clients are small and medium-sized businesses, so we keep our work practical, measurable and priced to the job.

Frequently asked questions
What does a digital marketing agency do?
A digital marketing agency helps a business get found, get chosen and get remembered online. That can mean building your website or app, running your social media and email marketing, improving your Google rankings with SEO and designing your brand. We do all of these, so one team looks after your whole online presence.
What digital marketing services do you offer?
Our digital marketing services are AI consultancy and training, bespoke mobile app development, website development, social media marketing, email marketing, graphic design, and SEO & AEO. You can choose one service or combine several into a single plan.
How much does a marketing agency cost in the UK?
It depends on what you need. As a guide, our social media management plans start at £250 a month, and our online AI training is £235 an hour. Websites, apps, SEO, email and design are quoted to the brief after a free discovery call, and we offer payment plans to spread the cost of a website. Digital marketing agency cost in the UK varies widely, so always ask exactly what is included.
Do you offer digital marketing packages?
Yes. Our social media marketing comes in three monthly digital marketing packages, Starter, Pro and Premium, and our websites can include hosting and maintenance for one price. You can also combine services, for example a new website with social media and SEO, into a plan built around your budget.
Are you a full service digital marketing agency?
Yes. We cover strategy, design, apps, websites, social media, email, SEO and AI training. Because it all sits with one team, your website, socials and emails tell the same story, and you have one point of contact instead of several suppliers.
Do you do digital marketing for small businesses?
Yes. Digital marketing for small business is what we do every day. We grew our own small business, so we keep things practical, explain everything in plain English and focus on the work that will make the biggest difference for your budget.
Where are you based? Are you a digital marketing agency in the UK?
We’re a digital marketing agency in the UK, based in Shropshire, UK. We work with clients across the country, from football clubs in Telford, Leamington and King’s Lynn to a balloon decor specialist in Surrey, a national event furniture supplier and a Shrewsbury restaurant.
How do I choose a digital marketing agency?
Look at their real work, talk to them before you commit, make sure the price is clear and ask how they will report on results. A good digital marketing company will want to understand your business first. We start every project with a free discovery call, so you can get to know us before deciding.
Can you act as our digital marketing consultant?
Yes. If you would rather keep the work in-house, we can advise as a digital marketing consultant: reviewing what you do now, finding the opportunities and planning what to do next. Our AI consultancy works the same way, helping your team use AI tools in marketing and across the business.
What makes Element16 Media different from any other online marketing agency?
Our AFC Telford United app won the Innovation Award at the Football Business Awards 2022, and we built StandBased, the club app programme used by non-league clubs across the country. Unlike many online marketing agencies, we design and build the apps and websites ourselves as well as marketing them.
