Company history

Marketing Assistance Ltd was formed in 1993 by Michael Mackman and Kevin Norman combining the activities of three marketing consultancies. We research, plan and implement so we can undertake any or all of the core elements of the marketing process. We are not advertising agents, not graphic designers, not programmers, not a lot of things but we have the experience and expertise to pull together the right specialists as and when required depending on what you need.

Our main office is in Tiptree, Essex where we have the support infrastructure which includes people for data entry, direct mail, tele marketing and research, and database management - sometimes described by one of our consultants as the " sweaty bits". We also have an office in London just over the river from Parliament Square.

Main Sectors

Marketing Assistance Limited provides services to a broad range of clients which currently includes (2009) parcel management services, warehouse automation, local authorities, education, railway infrastructure and support services, housing associations, water utility, energy consultancy, HR consultancy, training and publishing – all the many and varied faces of the business world are here.
