About

Elephant Creative was set up in 2008, in the UK, to deliver marketing and business development expertise in a plain English, common-sense format. Not for us glossy reports that sit on the shelf, leaving the client to get on with it. Once we’ve helped you to agree a logical action plan, we also like to roll our sleeves up and get the results.

Elephant Creative is an international, virtual network of experts, with a particular specialism in professional services. Each member of the team is selected because they are a genuine, proven expert in what they do and have a totally practical approach to doing it. With associates in both the UK and US (as well as straddling both) we don’t have offices or expensive overheads, preferring to operate like a ‘dream’ communications team – perfectly put together for your strategic, organizational needs.

But we understand that you have enough ‘cats to herd’ within your firm, without our adding to the problem. Whilst our innovative, virtual structure might afford you benefits in terms of cost and niche expertise we make sure we’re available on-site (or via skype, phone or email) if you need us and ensure the very highest standards of reporting, clarity of task and objective setting as well as internal team and account management.

In short, Elephant Creative offers a refreshingly practical approach to marketing and communications, focused on results. Finally… an agency that isn’t powered by hot air!

Social Media in Schools

For some schools, communicating with parents can be as difficult as the annual fire drill rehearsal. Endless flyers, newsletters, messages and memos make their way from school office to kitchen counter in attempt to keep contact between teachers and parents constant, clear and organised.
