Our mission
"We make digital simple. Our purpose is to simplify your frustrations in digital and solve the challenges you face to help make you more money and progressively grow your business.
We are Purposefully Proactive, Reassuringly Relaxed, offer Distinctively Delivered solutions and love to make our clients Habitually Happy."
Our mission was devised following an intensive positioning workshop and aims to remind us of what we have achieved so far and what we want to continue to grow and work in the future. This mission gives our company focus and drive and helps deliver great results to our clients.
Our values
You’ll find that our focus on overdelivery drives a fantastic level of quality and our mantra and values demonstrate that quality is underpinned by everything we do for you.
During our projects our promise to you is this, we will always strive to be;
Purposefully Proactive
With proven ideas, we are analytical, professional and proactive. Thoughtful before, throughout and during, we strive to exceed targets.
Reassuringly Relaxed
Whether it’s a new website launch, increasing your current website performance beyond what you thought was previously possible, identifying and fixing those frustrating technical issues that just get in the way of making digital simple or being the calm in the digital storm we’ve got your back.
Distinctively Delivered
Quality - For us it’s all about making digital simple. Less Haste. More Speed. Focusing on simple and better ways of delivering uncomplicated digital solutions for you. Overdeliver on quality and we find the rest takes care of itself. Exceeding targets is our expectation, not the nice to have.
Habitually Happy
Remember that time you last felt happy? It’s the number one emotion we strive to create in our clients. Not just a state of mind. It’s the state we promise to leave you in as we hand over your completed web or digital project. The secret sauce to this? Giving you more than we take. Delivering you great value. Making you happy and actually being great to work with along the way.

Experience
We established Made Simple Media Ltd in 2015, but our experience goes back way longer than that.
What we have learned with experience is that client's don't just want beautiful designs and impressive technology, they want great customer service knowing they can phone up and just talk too. You want good old fashioned Communication, not an agency who runs when the phone rings. You want a reliable extension to your team.
Our technical knowledge and customer service experience is a formidable combination.
Giving back
We are so fortunate in the UK to have so "much", especially great healthcare. We take it for granted but so many countries don't have a high level of healthcare and this leads to curable diseases and illnesses being a huge problem for them.
As creatives, we can't imagine not having our eye sight and being able to work on great things. This is why we chose to support Sightsavers in their mission to prevent avoidable blindness throughout the world.

Like many people and businesses, looking after our planet is becomming an increasing concern. Because of this we decided to join the Carbon Club to help offset our carbon footprint and do our bit to combat climate change.

Our Story
Made Simple Media was born in 2015 when David decided to leave his job as a Creative Director for a Web Agency and start up on his own. It was the same year he and Emma were expecting their first child, Jack. The pressure was on, Emma was giving up her job to become a full-time mum.
In that first year David managed to make more money than he did in his job and a successful business (as well as baby Jack) was born! We grew our client base before Covid hit, and ended up with a strong, resilient business that saw us through that tough time.
But what was seen as a necessity, became a passion. It was frustrating to see how many agencies overcharge and under-deliver for their clients. That was never going to be the story for Made Simple Media, every client must receive excellent value and great results!
Years later, we continue to create amazing solutions that deliver excellent value and results and build lasting, successful relationships with our clients.

Client retention
We are delighted with the quality of our new website, which has enabled us to effectively communicate our various areas of work and build an engaged and increasingly active audience. The common-sense design and easy-to-navigate structure has also helped us establish our organisational identity following a full rebrand in 2017. The support has been excellent throughout.
Jack Dixon, Imperial Health Charity
Due to business expansion I needed to make some amendments to a existing WordPress website. I asked Made Simple Media for some suggestions on the ideas I had and he was super helpful and came up with some great ideas to make the website perform and navigate better. Him and his team then did a great job in putting the ideas to practice and I was kept informed as the work was underway. Highly recommend Dave and his team!
Matthew Naylor, The Performance Zone
We commissioned David at Made Simple Media to build our website for About Mortgages. David was responsive, incredibly patient, on budget and provided a great finished product that we're delighted with.

Chris, Respirex International
Very helpful and professional company and people. They created a trading website for us and were able to even provide the SEO back up and continuing support. The website has been running now for a few years and has increased the online sales dramatically. Very supportive with changes as required. Would definitely recommend.
