10 Newcastle businesses per month. Personally reviewed.
Your marketing might not be the problem.
You can spend more on ads, post more often and redesign your website, but if you're fixing the wrong problem, you're just doing more of the same.
We look at the parts of your online presence that influence whether a Newcastle customer finds you, trusts you and gets in touch.
Be found
Google + local search
Be trusted
Reviews + social proof
Be chosen
Website + offer + conversion
Be remembered
Content + local visibility
We look at the whole customer journey.
01
Can local customers actually find you when they're looking for what you sell?
02
Website
Does your website make it obvious what you do, why you're worth choosing and what someone should do next?
03
Reviews
Are your reviews helping build trust, and are you consistently generating new ones?
04
Local visibility
How visible is your business compared with the other businesses competing for the same customers?
05
Content
Is your content actually building trust and demand, or are you just posting because you feel like you should?
06
Conversion
Once someone finds you, how easy is it for them to become a customer?
You won't get a 40-page marketing report.
You'll get something more useful: a clear view of what we'd fix first.

Example
The 3 things we'd fix first
01
Improve your local Google visibility
Your business is competing for high-intent local searches, but there are opportunities to improve how your Google Business Profile and website work together.
Why it matters
Customers are already searching. The opportunity is getting in front of more of them.
02
Make the website work harder
Your site explains what you do, but the path from visitor to enquiry could be clearer.
Why it matters
More of your existing traffic could potentially become enquiries.
03
Create a consistent review system
Your existing reviews create trust, but there isn't an obvious system for consistently generating new ones.
Why it matters
Recent customer feedback is one of the strongest trust signals available to a local business.
If this were our business...

Build the review engine
We don't just talk about marketing. We build the things we're talking about.
Digest Studio grew out of Newcastle Digest, a local media business reaching thousands of people across Newcastle every week. We've also built products like Testimo to solve specific problems for local businesses.
Newcastle Digest
7,000+ local subscribers
A real local audience, not a theoretical one.
Testimo
Built to turn customer feedback into a growth asset
A real product solving a real business problem.
Digest Studio
Websites, SEO, content, reviews and local distribution
The Studio brings those pieces together when a business actually needs them.
This probably isn't for you if...
- You're looking for someone to simply "post on Instagram".
- You want a giant marketing report that sits in your inbox.
- You're not interested in changing anything.
- You're looking for the cheapest possible agency.
- You don't have a genuine business growth goal.
It is for you if...
- You have a good business but know your marketing could work harder.
- You want to know where the biggest opportunity actually is.
- You want practical recommendations rather than marketing jargon.
- You're ready to act on the right problems.
10 businesses. Every month.
I personally review every Growth Audit, which means we keep the number deliberately small.
Once the 10 monthly audits are taken, applications close until the following month.
