Epiphany on track to hit £8m in fees in 2013

Epiphany has exceeded its challenging half-year targets through high-client retention and by securing an additional £2.55m of new business since February 2013. The agency is on track to significantly overachieve against its 2013-14 revenue target of £8m from management fees. Epiphany made £6.2m from management fees in the 2012-13 financial year.

A compound annual growth rate of 43% means that Epiphany has been one of Europe’s fastest-growing search marketing specialists since 2009. The agency has also announced that it appointed its 130th member of staff in August in response to new account wins and a very strong new business pipeline.

Epiphany has won new business in the 2012-13 financial year from both existing and new accounts. The agency has won a host of well-known clients in 2013 including Virgin Holidays, which Epiphany won following an extremely competitive pitch process. Epiphany is releasing details of other key account wins over the next five weeks.

The agency ranked in the UK top three for client satisfaction in the recent Drum Digital Census and was awarded top ten Elite Agency status.

Epiphany’s H1 figures also reflect strong performance from the two subsidiaries, Shackleton PR and Epiphany Digital Australia, which it created in September 2012.

Epiphany Group CEO Rob Shaw commented: "Building on what was an amazing year in 2012, earning awards like Digital Agency and Creative Team of the Year at the MiAwards and DADI Awards, we’ve moved into new offices in both Leeds and London and we’re forecasting an extremely positive second half of the year as you’d expect from these results."
