Halo Marketing

What Halo Marketing does

Halo Marketing Solutions, trading as Halo Marketing, is a privately held, founder-owned B2B marketing agency headquartered in Fareham/Whiteley, Hampshire (UK), founded in 2014 by Luke Bower under the original name Take Aim Media. The firm operates with a small team of approximately 5–6 staff and delivers a full-service marketing proposition spanning strategic marketing, social media management, creative design and branding, video production (including 3D animation), SEO and PPC management, website development, print and signage, photography, and PR/communications.

The company's business model is service-based and revenue is generated through three primary streams: monthly retainer engagements for ongoing marketing support (social, content, integrated campaigns), project-based fees for discrete deliverables (websites, branding, photography, video, print, event graphics), and recurring PPC/paid advertising management fees with monthly performance reporting. Pricing is quote-based and tailored to client scope; no published rate cards or tiers exist. Distribution is direct — discovery call, summit session, launch — with engagement sourced through the website, email, phone, WhatsApp, and referrals. Customers include both SMB and enterprise B2B brands, with named enterprise accounts spanning healthcare (Southampton General Hospital NHS Foundation Trust), logistics/trading (DP World), and science/education (Winchester Science Centre).

Halo Marketing is bootstrapped with no disclosed external funding, no parent company, and no subsidiaries. Operating geographies are UK-wide from a South East base, with content marketing, LinkedIn, and organic SEO serving as the primary demand-generation channels. The firm has no AI/ML capabilities, no patents, no formal certifications, and no disclosed awards.
