Who we are

BIG is an integrated PR, marketing and digital agency that solves commercial and reputational problems.

We start with what needs to change, then bring together the right strategy, expertise and channels around it. From PR, brand and creative to digital, social and SEO, our teams bring together a broad mix of specialist skills around the challenge.

And because we’re independent and owner-led, decisions are made quickly, accountability stays clear and senior people stay involved.

 

Our story

BIG started in 2000, when three journalists set up shop in a Glasgow basement. Our roots were in PR, media relations, issues and crisis communications, building a reputation for clear thinking, strong judgement and work that delivered when it mattered.

Since then, BIG has grown into an integrated PR, marketing and digital agency with teams in Glasgow, Manchester and Aberdeen, working with clients across the UK and beyond. Our expertise now spans PR, brand, creative, digital, social, SEO, strategy and more, across consumer, B2B, corporate and public sector organisations.

We’ve grown significantly, but remained independent and owner-led. More than 25 years on, that heritage still shapes how we work today: problem first, senior people throughout and judged on outcomes.

What makes BIG different

Problem first
We start with what needs to change for the business, whether that’s growth, revenue, trust, leads, market position or reputation, then work back to the strategy, expertise and channels required.

Senior people throughout
Our crisis and reputation roots mean experienced people stay involved from strategy through delivery, bringing the judgement that comes from advising CEOs and boards.

Judged on outcomes
No vanity activity. We agree what success looks like upfront, then judge the work by the commercial or reputational change it creates.
