A brand strategy and communications agency, built with a desire to deliver dynamic, considered and impactful results to brands with big potential.
We take a consultancy-led approach to delivering agency-scale results, tailoring a bespoke service to suit each client’s needs.
What We Believe
At QUARTZ we are passionate about elevating your brand, whilst driving meaningful growth - bringing our positive energy, strategic thinking and ‘out-the-box’ ideas, to ensure we tangibly move the dial for your business and make every ambition feel achievable.
We take a deliberately different approach to our client relationships, challenging ourselves to be agile and adaptable in our support, combining a creative and commercial mindset.
Our Services
Our services can be consolidated into four key pillars: QUARTZ Communicates, QUARTZ Creates, QUARTZ Consults and the QUARTZ Collective. Most retainer clients will gain access to the expertise, support and experience from within all four divisions, however this framework allows us to also welcome clients looking for specific project support in one particular area of specialisation.
Consistent, reliable and effective, our expert PR & Communications division is led by outstanding talent and powered by best-in-class industry relationships.
We offer a full-service press office, with ‘always-on’ outreach supporting timely news announcements, product placements and brand storytelling, Founder profiling and organic seeding. We carefully craft thoughtful and engaging angles to capture attention and drive education - ensuring your business is seen, heard, and remembered across print, digital and social platforms, as well in other new media and broadcasting channels.
A QUARTZ communication strategy is a core component of our strategic planning - driving awareness, delivering credibility, reinforcing trust and building desirability to achieve exciting and purposeful growth to your brand fame.
