End of Year Report

13 December 2022

2022 has been good to us here at Join the Dots. Having launched in late January, we felt it right to give YOU an insight into how we’ve worked and thrived these past months. Feel free to download our report below if you’re curious as to who we are, what we have done, and a little insight into what we will keep doing moving forward.

Here are some kind words from Managing Partner, Ben Briggs:

Following the sale of the customer data specialist business, Edit, to The Salocin Group in November 2021, Edit’s media team relaunched as a stand-alone media agency named Join the Dots.  Becoming Join the Dots allowed us to have our own voice, and concentrate on what we deliver best, bespoke channel-agnostic media planning and delivery that thrills their clients with amazing results.

Its been a incredibly challenging but gratifying first year in business, becoming a B-Corp, winning numerous awards and new clients, working closely to grow existing relationships with an expanded media offering.  We’ve also had to navigate the continuing challenges in the economic landscape including the cost of living crisis, the war in Ukraine and interest rates and inflation rising to record levels to name just a few.

As a business that is powered by data and driven by people, all of the success we’ve achieved wouldn’t have been possible without our talented team of dotters.  Without their talent and dedication just be ‘another’ agency making up the numbers, so I’d like to thank each and everyone of them for making a genuine difference to our clients.

On behalf of the team, I’d like to wish our clients and partners a very merry Christmas and happy new year.
