Multi-award winning full-service digital agency Purpose Media is celebrating after adding another trophy to its growing collection.

The South Normanton-based e-commerce website developer and online marketing specialist scooped the Outstanding Growth Performance award at the East Midlands Chamber’s 2016 Derbyshire Business Awards. Held at The Roundhouse, in Derby, on Friday 16th September, the awards were a glittering celebration of the best companies and individual business talent in Derbyshire.

The firm won the award following a solid period of business expansion over 2015 and 2016, which saw it launch a new creative arm after acquiring certain assets from former Derby-based design agency Revolver Revolver and a new video division following its merger with A Star Media earlier this year.

The moves saw Purpose Media double its employee headcount and turnover in just nine months and transform from a developer of e-commerce websites with Sage integration into a full-service digital agency which now also offers digital marketing, creative design, video production and PR.

Purpose Media’s managing director, Matt Wheatcroft, said: “It was a fantastic night on Friday and great to walk away with yet another prestigious award.

“It’s been a great 12 months for us, which has seen us double in size, both in terms of headcount and turnover.

“The changes we have made have enabled us to fully solidify our position as a full-service digital agency dedicated to providing SMEs across the region with creative digital solutions to help them achieve their online sales goals.”
