About Ten Four
As an agency we have one core principle which shapes our thinking and work: we are all firm believers in a 'planning first' approach and the value of a big idea.
A glossy execution will never hide a flawed idea, or communication that lacks an idea at all.
A clear, single and powerful idea makes communication work. It is this element that resonates with our audience.
Ideas that we have the ability to deliver holistically through any number of relevant mediums;
Brand identity, all online and digital applications, advertising, brochure design and production, direct marketing, point of sale, merchandising and PR.
At any given time the agency is delivering campaigns that use any number of these mediums.
We do not have a usual ad agency structure which is limited by the skills of a traditional creative department. We offer two complementary resources that deliver new ideas and fresh thinking that gets results based on sound business insights. Our in-house team comprises of graphic designers, web designers and programmers, marketing and advertising specialists. Also having access to a wider network of creative partners, means we can expand or contract and select the most relevant team for each particular project, based on their experience and expertise.
This more flexible structure allows us to fully explore all the options available and recommend the solution that's best for you - not ourselves. It all adds up to a better and more effective way of working; one which more freely delivers fresh ideas to your business.
The perfect marriage of a planning and business management team, with a potentially infinite creative resource tailored to the client's individual needs.
