"BBM has, on the surface, the same proposition that so many agencies have, and so many of us have been burnt by.
I entered this with huge trepidation, with lots of the right things being said, a team that knows what to say and when the ‘technical’ talk and the numbers all sounded, as usual, too good to be true.

Then to be met with a perfectly rational research phase and fee, the thought of how much that will cost if it goes wrong or if it was all just talk?

Gut feelings soon change when you lose large amounts of start-up cash as many of us know all too well.

The team at BBM put together what we felt were honest and realistic targets. To some extent quite conservative given the speculative numbers I’d heard from other agencies. Numbers we would be more than happy with but the reason we engaged BBM was the inconsistency in hitting them and the uncertainty that brought to the business.

They met with us as a team and went through the hows, and the whys and answered any questions we had. There was then a meticulous planning process outlined, constructed and slowly put into play. Nothing rushed, everything considered and targets, well, they were hit and at each stage reviewed. What worked, what didn’t, and what might in the future.

All ‘backend’ work is explained and rationalised to keep us well and truly in the picture. A research phase more than well spent and when you move beyond that point it then starts to get exciting!

Highly recommend BBM, great team, great work rate and great delivery."

"We spoke to Adam a number of times before starting to work with BBM on our digital marketing. At Hytro we’re creating a new category and so it’s a challenging task.

The onboarding process was very slick and meant that BBM achieved a high level of understanding of our product right at the beginning. That was also helped by Adam using Hytro and indeed creating content well before we formally engaged BBM.

BBM have always been proactive with ideas, working incredibly hard to find the solutions to our unique problems and doing it all with a positive attitude. Adam, Kate and the team as well as being a great bunch of people to work with invest a lot of time and effort into cultivating the relationship with their clients and understanding their business and products. That aligned to their knowledge of both marketing and the fitness industry positions them well in this space."

"After having an initial call with Adam and the team at BBM, I knew we were on the same wavelength. Their knowledge of the marketing industry is very good and what also impressed me is their knowledge of the fitness industry. It’s not just marketing, the team look at the whole approach to business.

We have been very impressed with their whole team as they always go above and beyond and we are really excited about our growth in 2022 and beyond with Adam, Kate and the BBM team."

"Barbell Marketing are a pleasure to work with, the whole team are proactive but also reactive and are constantly finding solutions on improving your business. Whether it be types of marketing ideas or customer user experience, they love to dive into it all and provide a well-rounded knowledge base.

They are a pleasure to work with and HEXXEE would definitely recommend!"
