Newcastle based digital agency announces ‘ambitious’ plans to open London office

A Newcastle based digital agency has announced ambitious plans to treble its growth and open a London office, after expanding its client base in the UK and Europe and recruiting three new employees.

Specialising in UX (user experience) design, and digital transformation development, Readysalted, who recently celebrated their 20th anniversary, have plans to hit half a million pounds turnover by 2025 and treble the size of the business by 2028.

2023 also saw the team achieve their largest annual turnover to date with a 30 per cent increase in revenue from the previous year. The business works with clients including Newcastle, Durham and Cambridge universities, as well as businesses in the medical science and manufacturing sectors.

Currently working with clients in the North East, London and across Europe, the Readysalted team also have ‘ambitious’ plans to open a London office this year.

Simon Honeywood, Founder and Managing Director of Readysalted, commented: “The last 12 months have been fantastic for the business as we continue to support our many clients across the globe. I still have to pinch myself about how far we have come in 20 years from when I started out as a freelancer in the industry.

“This really is credit to the fantastic team we have at Readysalted, their expertise and commitment to delivering outstanding client care. We really take the time to understand the businesses we work with, what their customers need when they visit a website, and how they behave online.

“We also work with clients on digital transformation, which is something that can save people hours and hours of time and completely change the way they work, it really is transformative!

“We have an incredibly varied client base, from medical scientists to manufacturers, through to the education sector and beyond. Essentially, we can make a piece of software you can run an entire company with, which is bespoke to the needs of each client.”

And as the business celebrates over 20 years in the sector, they are setting ambitious plans for growth, with a new London base and the appointment of further members to the team. Simon added: “2023 was a great year as we celebrated our 20th anniversary, employed three new members of staff, had a brand refresh and grew the business by 30 per cent.

“But we are not stopping there and this year we have plans to take things even further, recruiting more developers and designers, opening our London office and working with more clients across the capital and Europe, as well as the North East. It’s an exciting time as we also set ourselves the target of hitting the half million mark by 2025 and £1m by 2028.”
