Birmingham marketing agency Traffic, is celebrating a portfolio of client wins with a move to Digbeth's 'creative quarter'.

The home-grown marketing agency, set up 18 months ago, has moved to Zellig, at The Custard Factory, taking on new staff to deal with demand for web development, SEO and social media strategy.

New clients include South Birmingham College , whose summer enrolment campaign was based on Traffic's movie-based billboard campaign, encouraging students to take charge of their own destiny. The campaign ran across 100 outdoor sites across the city. The agency has recently taken up other projects with the college.

Other new clients include Persimmon Homes, Halcrow Civil Engineering, Joerns Healthcare and Staffordshire and West Midlands Probation Trust - for which Traffic is developing an online training portal for Magistrates.

Director Phil Elwell said: "Despite a stubborn economic downturn, we've actually doubled our turnover in the last 12 months".

He added: "It's still a challenging climate but we've kept focused and determined and we're now experiencing the growth we planned for. The key to our progression is our absolute commitment to building client relationships and our ability to be creative, whilst on-message, across all channels."

"The name Traffic reflects the notion of moving consumers towards our client's brands. Though we're experiencing the rise and rise of digital, our client strategies are based on the most potent offline and online tactics to build fully-rounded brands".
