Be ready when it matters most

About Hargreaves Marketing

Our Purpose

We help business leaders communicate with clarity and confidence when the stakes are high — whether that’s winning new business, securing funding, aligning a leadership team, or navigating strategic change.

Our Mission

We work with SME clients to solve problems, drive projects, and win deals by turning complex issues into clear, credible communication. Through our key theme Articulate Strategy Well and our five core services — Talk Markets, Talk Strategy, Talk Value, The Strategic Narrative  and Rehearse, Record & Go, — we prepare both individuals and organizations to perform at their best when it matters most.

Background

Hargreaves Marketing Ltd (founded in 2012) is owned and directed by Adrian Hargreaves. My career spans many years in sales and marketing across specialist business media and publishing companies, including Haymarket Media Group, Faversham House, Newsquest, and Thomson Directories. I also spent several years in marketing at Daniel Thwaites PLC, leading public relations and promotional campaigns while producing content for in-house business media.

I’ve worked for and with businesses of all sizes — from local SMEs to national organisations. What matters most to me is making communication practical and results-driven. That means focusing on your real priorities: winning sales, building stronger client relationships, delivering smoother projects, and leading with confidence.

How We Work

  • Discovery – We learn about your business, goals, and challenges.

  • Narrative & Story Development – Together we create clear, credible communication — whether for a one-off event or as part of your ongoing strategic narrative.

  • Support & Practice – You get hands-on preparation to perform with confidence in boardrooms, client meetings, or leadership discussions.

Most projects are completed in days or weeks, not months, so you see results quickly.
