About Us
Twice nominated as Creative Company of the Year, Tick The Publicity Box – specialists in media, marketing and PR – gives clients in the third sector a professional image and assists them with all aspects of promotion from design and printing, buying media space, staging events and presentations.
The social enterprise also provides services to local authorities and the NHS which, in turn, provides a surplus which helps various charitable groups.
To us, the key to a successful social economy is for CICs to keep focused on building their business, making it sustainable and winning more contracts. Providing them with a professional image and meaningful marketing is critical to delivering that success.
