Chalk + Ward

Based in East Exeter on Southernhay East, Chalk + Ward is a small branding and digital marketing agency operating with a team of between one and ten people. The business works across branding, digital and management consultancy disciplines, positioning itself around client growth rather than a single narrow specialism, and it serves companies looking for support that spans brand identity, digital presence and broader business strategy from one agency. The agency's declared services include search engine optimization, pay per click, content marketing and email marketing alongside web design, sitting under a wider digital strategy and digital marketing offering. On the branding side, work covers brand strategy, brand creation and brand marketing, while its management consultancy strand extends into business vision and purpose, brand direction, board and business performance, growth, mergers and acquisitions, people and culture, risk planning and crisis management, and social and environmental responsibility. This combination suggests an approach that connects marketing execution, such as SEO and PPC campaigns or website builds, to underlying brand direction and business strategy rather than treating them as separate services. The agency publishes insights and a monthly newsletter covering marketing trends, and organises its public information around branding, digital and consultancy as distinct but connected service areas.
