Seventy9

What Seventy9 does

Seventy9 Creative Limited is a privately-held, full-service creative and digital marketing agency headquartered in Kettering, UK, operating under the trading name 'Seventy9' across eight regional office locations in the East Midlands. The firm delivers website design and build (WordPress and a proprietary CMS called '79CMS'), digital marketing (Google Ads, PPC, SEO including AI-search optimisation, web analytics), social media management, branding and brand strategy, print design, videography, content creation, copywriting, email marketing, exhibitions, and managed IT support via a separate subsidiary, Seventy9 IT.

The company's commercial engine combines one-time project fees (website design and ecommerce builds) with managed-service retainers covering SEO, Google Ads, and social media, alongside recurring hosting, email, and support contracts. Its technology foundation pairs the off-the-shelf WordPress stack with the internally developed 79CMS — a modular CMS used across client builds to handle blogs, bookings, ecommerce, and product catalogues without third-party plugin dependency. Pricing is quote-based with no published tiers, and contracts run on multi-year cadences.

The customer base is horizontal and heavily weighted toward UK small and medium-sized businesses with selected mid-market accounts, spanning retail, veterinary services, hospitality, automotive, gardening, textiles, pet care, and corporate gifting. The agency sells through direct outreach supported by eight regional offices, inbound website enquiries, and a formal referral program, and demonstrates results through case studies showing measurable improvements in search visibility, web sessions, and enquiry volumes.
