Smye Holland Associates specialises in providing public relations and marketing services to organisations involved in building, construction and economic development.

We can assist at all stages to help smooth development projects, from initial community consultation through to securing planning consent - and then marketing to investors or occupiers.

We work with regional and sub-regional organisations to promote regeneration and inward investment for specific towns and cities. We also help companies providing construction products and services to sell to other companies in the industry.

We use techniques including media relations, sales literature, direct mail and advertising - as well as websites, community meetings and events - to meet clients' objectives. We also undertake market research to set benchmarks and evaluate results.

In addition, we help our clients to formulate marketing plans covering not just communications but also fundamental issues of market segmentation and opportunity. We assist not-for-profit organisations to develop marketing strategies that reflect their social as well as financial objectives.

Our team

Our team includes former journalists and experienced personnel with professional qualifications in marketing and public relations.

The dedicated construction and development team works with a variety of organisations to promote major new developments to local communities, planning authorities, investors and end users. It also works with clients in the construction industry which are selling products and services.

Our clients

Our public sector clients include urban regeneration companies as well government and development agencies. In the private sector they include property and construction companies, developers, architects, surveyors and others. Many of our clients are manufacturers of products for the construction industry or providers of professional services.

We also work with a number of housing associations, assisting them not just with communications related to development but in areas such as tenant involvement.

Our expertise

Smye Holland Associates understands our clients' needs, their markets and the political and economic climate in which they operate. We use our knowledge and experience to produce and implement marketing strategies to help clients meet their objectives.

We deliver effective results by combining sound business sense with creative thinking.
