In the fast-paced world of digital marketing, it’s rare to see an agency stand out in such a meaningful way. But that’s exactly what the team at eComOne has done. Based in the heart of Lincoln, this eCommerce marketing agency has made a name for itself by offering a transparent, client-focused approach to digital marketing. With a dedicated team of 25 specialists, eComOne has been able to help businesses boost their revenue through SEO, PPC, email marketing, and Digital PR. And now, they’ve been recognised for their efforts, shortlisted for three prestigious awards at the UK Agency Awards. Here’s why.
What Sets eComOne Apart?
At the core of eComOne, our mission has always been simple: we’re here to increase the revenue of our clients and help them scale into sustainable businesses. From the moment a client partners with us, we’re all-in on their success. Our team isn’t just made up of experts in digital marketing, we’re eCommerce specialists who understand the unique challenges businesses in this space face.
One thing that really sets us apart is the real-world experience our leadership brings to the table. Our founder and CEO have previously run successful eCommerce businesses themselves, so we’ve always had a deep understanding of what clients need and how to get results at a granular level.
Over the past 12 months, our team has worked hard to grow, our revenue increased by 32%, well above our target of 25%. In a time when expectations from clients and industry demands have skyrocketed, that growth is a reflection of the team’s dedication, creativity and ability to stay nimble.
A Growing Team with a Clear Vision
We’ve also expanded our team from 21 to 25 over the past year. This wasn’t just about adding numbers; we’ve been intentional about bringing in the right talent to help us meet our clients’ growing needs. Despite our expansion, we’ve kept the work culture fun, collaborative, and transparent, ensuring that each individual can thrive.
Alongside our team growth, we’ve expanded the services we offer. We’ve embraced platforms like TikTok to help our clients connect with younger, broader audiences, and we’ve integrated AI-driven tools to enhance our campaigns while ensuring KPIs are met. As the digital marketing world evolves, we’re right there with it, pushing boundaries and staying ahead of the curve.
Pushing the Boundaries: Recent Success Stories
One of our proudest moments this year was working with Safelincs. What started as a simple PPC audit turned into a year-long partnership after we delivered some incredible insights and results. We helped Safelincs achieve a £276K revenue uplift, alongside significant improvements in Return on Ad Spend (ROAS). Their trust in us led to a full-service partnership where we also took over their SEO.
Mel Saunders, Head of Marketing at Safelincs, had this to say about working with us: “The eComOne Team is a pleasure to work with. Following a recent audit, we couldn’t be working alongside more friendly and knowledgeable individuals. Their approach towards clients is professional and considered.” This is the kind of relationship we build—one that’s based on results, transparency, and trust.
Achievements that Speak for Themselves
Our efforts haven’t gone unnoticed. Over the past year, we’ve earned several prestigious accolades, including:
- Google Premier Partner Status: We’re proud to be among the top 3% of agencies in the UK, a testament to our expertise in Google Ads.
- eCommerce Team of the Year: This recognition celebrates the dedication and results of our eCommerce team.
- CEO’s Business Personality of the Year: Our CEO’s impact on both clients and the broader eCommerce industry has been truly inspiring.
But we’re not just about winning awards, we’re also deeply committed to giving back to our local community. Every year, we host over 200 work experience placements for young people in Lincolnshire, helping nurture local talent. On top of that, we’ve partnered with major brands like Gymshark and Yours Clothing to host educational events, further solidifying our role in advancing the eCommerce space.
Overcoming Challenges in a Competitive Landscape
Being based in Lincoln, smaller than cities like London or Manchester, presents both opportunities and challenges. While the city’s close-knit community spirit has been a huge asset, attracting large-scale clients and hosting big events isn’t always easy. We’ve overcome this by focusing on creating events that offer real value and bring in guest speakers and experts from across the eCommerce world. We’ve successfully bridged the gap between rural Lincoln and larger cities, giving professionals a reason to connect with us, no matter where they’re based.
The eCommerce agency space is also incredibly competitive, and clients now demand value even before signing on. We’ve adapted by refining our sales process. We focus on meaningful conversations rather than traditional hard selling, building stronger, more genuine relationships with prospective clients. This approach has saved us time and resources while allowing us to grow our client base.
A Community-Focused Agency with Industry Recognition
So why should eComOne win Agency of the Year? For us, it’s about more than just client results. It’s about community, both within the eCommerce industry and in our local area. Through initiatives like our eComOne Live & Uncut podcast and Digital Drinks meetups, we’ve united professionals and facilitated conversations that elevate the eCommerce landscape. And our partnerships with brands like Shopify, Klaviyo, and Mailchimp have only cemented our position as leaders in the industry.
With our strong track record, expanding team, and commitment to giving back, eComOne is an agency to watch. Winning this award would not only celebrate our success but also provide further credibility and recognition of the work we do every day.
