Leeds creative agency DS.Emotion announces 27% turnover increase

Leeds creative and digital agency DS.Emotion has announced a substantial 27% increase in turnover for 2014 prompting investment in growth plans for 2015.

The award winning consultancy, which has studios in Leeds, Manchester and London, plans to increase its team by one-third, recruiting across all three studios to help manage and service a significant increase in client activity as it prepares to achieve similar growth in this next financial year.

Much of this success is attributed to geographical growth as DS.Emotion launched into the North West marketplace with a new base in Manchester.

Director Angus Armitage, said, “Twelve months on from establishing our Manchester studio we have leveraged our property expertise to take on some of the North West’s most prominent developers and schemes.

Recent gains include the 100,000 sq. ft. office redevelopment of Arkwright House in Manchester city centre for Catalyst Capital, a £65 million leisure led development in Stockport Town Centre, Angel Gardens at Noma, and Axis, a 27 storey residential tower for Property Alliance Group.

DS.Emotion is also appointed to create brand campaigns for City House in Leeds for Bruntwood, Thorpe Park Leeds for Scarborough Development Group and Hills’ Zero carbon scheme in Cambridge.

In other sectors DS.Emotion has increased its remit to market 27 hotels for the QHotels Group, secured bespoke projects for NHS Trust service areas, provide brand campaigns for Workplace Pensions Direct and deliver branding and creative work for Civica, a global technology business.

Last year DS.Emotion expanded internationally, leveraging sales across the UAE and China for both residential and commercial projects working with their network of locally based agents in Shanghai and Dubai
