Ad firm in buyout

Monday 10th August 2009, 3:31PM BST.

Albrighton-based advertising agency M3 Communications has broadened its portfolio of services with the acquisition of local web design company Gasp Design.

The full-service advertising agency acquired the new media marketing and web design company after working closely together for over two years.

M3 managing director Dave Lawrence said: “M3 Communications is currently going from strength to strength. We have recently moved out of Wolverhampton to larger premises in Albrighton and felt the time was right to expand our offer.

“After having worked with Gasp Design previously, we had witnessed first-hand how successful internet marketing can be used to actively drive traffic to websites and how to direct those same casual users into taking action; whether that be purchasing online, filling out a form or picking up the phone.

We have worked in partnership with Gasp on some very successful projects and it made perfect sense to bring them under the M3 banner.”

Gasp moves from offices in Telford and brings to M3 a range of national clients including Alliance and Leicester and Cadbury Trebor Basset, along with local clients such as Veissmann, Gary Williams Photography and TJ Vickers.

The company specialises in creating cutting-edge websites backed by extensive experience in online marketing techniques including Twitter, YouTube and Facebook.
