B2B Marketing Agency in London | NowComms
B2B marketing agency · London

A plan you can act on. And the team who acts on it.

NowComms is a B2B marketing agency in London. You get a senior marketing team, a fractional CMO, or both. Most people start with a £1,500 Growth Roadmap, and if you carry on with us it comes off your first month.

From £850 a month, rolling. Scope and price agreed before anything starts. The red handwriting you will meet on the way down is our editor’s pen. Everything we ship goes through it. This page included.

How the plan behaves

A twelve-month plan you are allowed to argue with.

A plan set a year in advance is usually wrong by month four. Something moves in your market, or you change your mind, and the plan quietly becomes a document nobody opens.

We plan your next three months in detail and keep the twelve-month goal in view. When something changes, we change the route rather than defend the plan. Try it.

Right now the year runs straight through, quarter by quarter. Press the button and watch what agile actually means here.

That is what agile means at NowComms. Not a ceremony, and not a buzzword. Short cycles, real evidence, and a plan that is allowed to be wrong out loud.

a plan you can argue with is worth more than one you cannot.
How we decide

What the room thinks. What the data says.

Budget arguments are usually won by whoever sounds most certain. So before we trust any opinion, ours included, we check the confident answer against the measured one.

Four channels below: what most teams assume each one earns, and what the benchmarks actually show.

what most teams assumewhat the benchmarks show

A typical benchmark shape, not a law. Your mix will differ, which is exactly why we measure before we move budget.

In most benchmarks the room backs the tall dashed bar while referrals quietly win, and paid earns less than anyone wants to admit. Your company will differ from the benchmark, sometimes completely, and that is the point. The plumbing that tells you your own truth, the CRM, the tracking, the attribution, is boring right up until it moves a budget.

opinions are free. that is the problem with them.

If you are not ready to talk

Six questions. One honest read. Right here.

Two minutes, no typing, and you do not leave this page. The answer appears below, not in your inbox three days later.

Question 1 of 6

The check runs right here once the page has fully loaded. If this message stays, run it at /marketing-check/ instead.

Want it as a page you can send someone? It lives at /marketing-check/ too.

The question everyone asks

What AI does here. And what it never touches.

People ask us this before they ask about price, so here is the plain version. AI helps us get to first drafts faster. It digs through data and takes the grind out of research. It means a small senior team can do the work of a much bigger one, and it means you are not paying someone to spend three days on something that takes twenty minutes.

A person owns every decision that reaches you. A person writes the thinking. A person checks the numbers, and if a figure cannot be sourced, it does not ship.

If an agency has sent you the first version and called it finished, we understand the caution. That is exactly why we write about this, in the open, at Human in the Loop.

the tools are fast. the judgement is ours.
How we think

Human in the loop.

The hub is where we work out what we actually think about AI and marketing. Essays, field notes, and the occasional argument with ourselves. It is free, and there is no gate on most of it. The pen you have been seeing all the way down this page lives there.

About one email a month. Unsubscribe whenever.

this is the bit that keeps the work good.
Questions

The things people ask first.

What does NowComms do?

NowComms is a B2B marketing agency in London. We give you a senior marketing team, a fractional CMO, or both. We cover positioning, SEO, paid, CRM, analytics, LinkedIn, conversion and events, and the same people move across all of it. Most clients start with a £1,500 Growth Roadmap, which is a twelve-month plan with the first three months scoped in detail.

What kind of companies do you work with?

B2B companies that have found something that works and now need marketing to keep up with it. We have worked in security, fintech, learning, energy and data, though the sector matters less than the situation. If you sell to other businesses, we can probably help. If we cannot, we will say so.

How much does it cost to work with NowComms?

A Growth Roadmap is £1,500, one time, and it comes off your first month if you carry on. A one-off project starts at £3,000. An ongoing partnership starts at £850 a month, which buys a day a month to keep your channels honest, and scales to around five days when there is real work on. A fractional CMO is £5,000 a month, which is around five days of Ken, and £8,000 a month with our team delivering the work alongside him. On the fractional engagements, the £1,500 Roadmap comes off your first month. Scope and price are agreed before anything starts.

Do you replace our marketing team, or work with the one we have?

We work with the one you have. Most founders who come to us have already hired someone good, then asked that one person to be a strategist, a writer, a designer, an SEO and a CRM operator. We build the team around them, so they can do the job you hired them for.

Do you use AI to do the work?

Yes, and we will tell you exactly how. AI helps us get to first drafts faster, digs through data and takes the grind out of research, which is how a small senior team does the work of a much bigger one. A person owns every decision that reaches you, writes the thinking, and checks the numbers. If a figure cannot be sourced, it does not ship. We write about where that line sits at Human in the Loop.

Where do we start?

Most people start with a Growth Roadmap. We run a growth session with your team, look at the business honestly, and build you a plan. If now is not the right time, we will tell you. You can also run our six question check and get a read in about two minutes, without talking to anyone.

the pen

That is the deal on every page of this site, and on every piece of work we ship. The red pen you have seen all the way down this page is not a design flourish. It is the process.
