Rahul and the Futura team have been a god send for our company. From the first conversations all the way through to a full strategic plan, he and his team have been a pleasure to work with and set a foundation for our continuing and growing success. They have meticulously researched our industry and competitors and helped us shape our USP and focus on key strategic markets. The stunning website that they have developed for us has visually manifested their brand positioning skills and this has been followed through with an arsenal of marketing strategies including search engine optimization and Linkedin business development training so that we can reach new clients and markets. A big thanks from Adtube.

Over the last 12 months, Futura has been a trusted business growth partner for Marine Ices and has been instrumental in the growth of our business though increase trade and consumer sales. When initially approached we were sceptical to say the least - theirs was one of many cold approaches that we get. But their persistence and the commercially sound insights they shared with us, pointing out where we were leaving money on the table, compelled us to pay attention and ultimately led to the decision to work with them. Futura has achieved something very special, an integrated and well thought out business growth solution that is commercially powerful and visually pleasing to behold and has contributed to an increase in sales for our business. Their small team is truly cross disciplinary and has aligned our growth aspirations with a very intelligent branding strategy that stands out from our competitors and which our customers love. As well as being beautifully designed, the new website is fast, slick and easy to navigate – and is truly responsive, providing the same experience across multiple devices. The site reinforces the brand experience that our customers expect and since the site went fully live we have seen excellent results in increased revenues, increased conversion rates and very positive customer feedback.

Rahul and his team came recommended by a mutual client when we were looking for a service provider who could help us with our digital marketing strategy and contacting him was a decision I haven’t regretted. Rahul rewrote the rule book in terms of our expectations of what a website should deliver and the skills set that a web design and marketing company should have. Our first meeting took us by surprise, rather than immediately addressing the design and technical features of the website, which seemed to be the approach that other company’s took, we were offered a dedicated business growth consultancy session. Rahul took the time to understand our business and how we work, they clarified our business growth aspirations, analyzed our competitors and asked lots of insightful questions. He immediately demonstrated that not only were his team highly creative but they were adept at getting under the skin of our business, identifying our growth challenges and interweaving together their skills in business strategy, consumer psychology, design and marketing. The combination of these skills was highly unique and reassuring! All of the strategic insight he gleaned from us was used to advise us on creating a more compelling brand positioning strategy for our business, which was reflected in the design and content of the website that they have created. Rahul and the Futura team have handled our web site re-design with insight, creative flair and commercial acumen and the end result has been truly stunning and won much praise form clients and industry peers! Futura are full of ideas, incredibly hard working and transparent with their strategy and structure. They take customer service seriously, often providing help and advice outside office hours and helping to turn our ideas into reality. At the same time they were not afraid to challenge our often conventional thinking and offer us a fresh perspective to consider. Rahul has truly exceeded our expectations with his overall commitment to our business. We look forward to our relationship growing with him and Futura by benefitting from their marketing strategy and business development services. I have no hesitation recommending Rahul and Futura to any business looking for a great branding, web design and marketing company who can come on board as a business growth partner.
