What Rise By Digital does

Rise By Digital is a privately held UK digital marketing agency founded in 2014 by Adam Coley and headquartered in East Leake, Leicestershire (registered as Rise By Digital Limited in England & Wales). The firm operates as a senior-only team of 6 specialists spanning strategy, creative, and technical delivery, and delivers services across three core pillars: Website Design & Development (one-off project fees from £1,495 to £9,995+), performance marketing (Organic SEO from £189/month, Paid Media/PPC with management fee plus percentage of ad spend, Social Media Management from £205/month, Social Advertising, Email Marketing), and strategic services (UX & CRO, Branding, Marketing Consultancy from £250/month, Training & Workshops, Marketing Audits). Underlying technology is centred on WordPress CMS for website builds, with integrations to Hootsuite for social scheduling; the firm holds no published APIs or SDKs and offers no proprietary platform.

Pricing is publicly disclosed and tiered across each service line, with contract terms ranging from 3 to 24 months. Go-to-market is sales-led and consultative, combining direct outreach, a website quote request flow, free 30-minute consultations, free SEO audits as lead magnets, and event presence (e.g., LoveBusiness Expo). The agency reports managing £5.5M in annual ad spend on behalf of clients, 250+ cumulative projects delivered, and a 97% repeat business rate.

Credibility is built on certifications including Google Partner, Meta Digital Marketing Associate, Meta Community Management, CIM Associate (ACIM) with Level 6 Marketing & Digital Strategy, PRINCE2, Cyber Essentials, Disability Confident, and Innovation 50 (Midlands) recognition.
