about us

nxo is the UK’s first and only strategic marketing communications agency franchise. The pioneering franchise business has grown rapidly since its launch in 2003.

If you are an experienced marketing professional, either agency or in-house, nxo provides an unrivalled opportunity to set up and run your own agency, with the ability to offer a full range of Creative Marketing Communications services delivered through two nxo Creative Hubs in the North and South.

Drawing on their own expertise and, where appropriate, collaborating with others members of the network to provide strategic consultancy to clients, franchisees can rely upon strategic planning, creative and tactical support from the nxo delivery Hubs to provide clients with complete marketing communications solution. 

The ability to charge directly for their own strategic consultancy and earn mark ups on tactical services delivered by the Creative Hubs provides franchisees with potential financial returns that are far in excess of consultancy alone.

By adding communications solutions into your proposition, franchisees can provide a service which naturally combines with your consultancy; providing you an offering that will enable you to build long term relationships with clients and long term income streams.

nxo HQ and Northern Hub are based in Preston in the Northwest and provide access to a broad range of services to support the franchisees on their development journey.  These include virtual office, administration, training, mentoring and coaching.  The founder of nxo provides hands on support to assist you in your business.  He is a regional President, Fellow and Chartered Marketer of the CIM and honorary teaching Fellow at Lancaster University Business School.

nxo London – Southern Creative Hub – is a strategic partnership with Cubo Brand Communications – a top 20 UK integrated brand communications company. Through Cubo there is access via Cagney group to comprehensive services such as PR, research and data services.

The benefits speak for themselves – top class professional support and world class creative work that will help you win and retain clients and generate incremental income on top of your strategic consultancy fees.

nxo is a burgeoning brand that has formed a strong core in the Northwest and is now driving its network UK-wide, which will provide you and your future clients with national strengths, delivered on a regional level.

nxo is committed to raising the standard and improving the accessibility of top class marketing services.

The nxo Strategic Marketing Network has the added benefit of providing links between fellow franchisees, who have a vast array of individual sector experience and skills. This unique "knowledge pool" means that nxo consultants/franchisees can call on the experience of other franchisees to win new clients.

The nxo client base ranges from famous brands to SMEs. nxo franchisees’ mixture of experience provides a strong selling-point when pitching for new clients, as there is enough support in the network to cater for the needs of the potential client, even if the area is not an individual consultant's/franchisee’s specialty. Projects vary from small or one-off requirements for start-ups to full outsourcing of the marketing function.
