Leading North West female owned digital agency celebrates two major milestones

Beyond The Dawn celebrates its fifth birthday after helping over 10,000 women in business across the globe via charity events, partnerships and coaching

North West based digital agency Beyond The Dawn is celebrating two major milestones this July - its fifth year in business and helping over 10,000 women business owners around the globe.

Based in Lytham St Anne’s, Beyond The Dawn Digital has worked with over 10,000 female entrepreneurs wishing to build their businesses and be supported via the agency’s global community since it began five years ago. Through a blend of group coaching programmes, partnerships, charity events and free resources, Beyond The Dawn and its Founder, Dawn Baxter, have created a culture of women lifting each other up and sharing their passion for business together.

The agency initially began in 2017 as Pretty Branding, offering social media management to small businesses before rebranding as it transitioned to help female entrepreneurs build sustainable businesses.

Agency founder Dawn Baxter initially began the company fired by her passion and love of supporting small businesses. As a businesswoman, she came from a humble background that gave her that entrepreneurial spirit to grow and thrive. After forging a successful career in the jewellery industry and retail sector, she switched focus and achieved multiple modalities and qualifications including graphic design, digital marketing, and positive psychology coaching.

Dawn said: “It’s amazing to be celebrating not just one, but two major milestones; our fifth birthday is so exciting on its own, but to realise how many female entrepreneurs and small businesses we’ve helped since starting in 2017 is a wonderful feeling.

“Beyond The Dawn has flourished, we now offer all of our clients a full end-to-end digital service that can support their needs with graphic design, digital marketing, social media and branding, but more than that we can also support ambitious female entrepreneurs with confidence and empowerment coaching; no matter what stage of their journey they’re at.”

Alongside her successful agency, Dawn has also strengthened regional links in her local area of Blackpool. When the UK went into lockdown in March 2020, alongside other Beyond The Dawn team members, Dawn stepped forward to help those vulnerable and in need by setting up a Blackpool support group on Facebook. The group offered services such as picking up prescriptions and shopping as well as offering companionship for those feeling isolated or lonely during the pandemic. After just two weeks, the group had grown to have more than 25,000 members matching volunteers to those in need.

The future is continuing to look bright with exciting plans on the horizon for the agency, including a new studio move and global team expansion.

Dawn explained: “The new studio is another big step forward for us. It is not too far from where we are currently based but it definitely feels like an exciting, new chapter. Our new offices will serve as a creative hub for both the Beyond the Dawn Digital team and clients, allowing them to record and create content for social media platforms and podcasts as well as providing facilities for video recording capabilitites to create online courses and much more.

“Many of the businesses we support are based at home so we wanted to create an environment where they can come and create their own content ahead of time, saving them stress and money, and also have a community in real life to support them.”

The agency plans to continue adding to both its roster of team members and clients across the globe throughout the rest of 2022 and into 2023.
