What HATCHED AGENCY LTD does

Hatched Agency Ltd is a founder-owned, full-service creative, digital, and marketing agency registered in England and Wales and headquartered at the Firepool Centre for Digital Innovation in Taunton, Somerset. The company delivers integrated work across three pillars — Creative (branding, graphic design, illustration, animation, photography/videography, packaging, exhibition design, UX/UI), Digital (web design and development, e-commerce, custom CMS, hosting, hosted email via Microsoft Exchange, apps, AI development and solutions, digital audits) and Marketing (strategy, social media, PPC/SEO, email, copywriting, integrated campaigns, analytics) — primarily to UK SMBs, educational institutions, charities/non-profits, and large enterprise clients. Notable engagements span DEFRA, UNICEF, a Top 200 UK law firm, City of London Freemen's School, King's School Rochester, QSS IT Solutions, and Somerset Rugby.

The agency operates on WordPress and Shopify as primary platforms, supplemented by Kentico, Webflow, and custom PHP/JavaScript/CSS development for bespoke modular CMS deployments, and integrates third-party systems such as OpenApply for school admissions and Microsoft Exchange for hosted email and desktop. A dedicated AI Development & Solutions service, led by an AI Lead, sits alongside the core offering, taking a strategy-first approach to evaluating business processes before introducing AI tooling.

Go-to-market is sales-led, primarily direct: client enquiries route through the website (with category-specific enquiry types for branding/design, digital/web, and marketing), supplemented by phone and email. The agency maintains its own multi-channel presence across LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, an SEO-optimised site, an email newsletter, and regional events such as Business Fest South West 2026. Revenue is generated through project-based engagements with ongoing retainer options for marketing and digital maintenance; pricing is not publicly disclosed and is quoted on a project-by-project basis. The business is bootstrapped with no external institutional funding disclosed and operates with a core team of approximately nine specialists plus an active apprenticeship programme.
