Kaleidoscope are an agency who believe in the power of communications to create positive change. They've been part of the creative community for 35 years and wanted support to build their next chapter and their profile.

Where they were at

Fresh from a successful management buy-out and with ambitious plans to grow their revenue, team, and offering, they were ready to explore new ways to refresh and re-energise the business.

How Gather helped

"Beyond gave us the platform to scale the business; we've made three hires as a result... it's been the trigger for a lot of change."

James and his team recognised untapped opportunities for Kaleidoscope. Their participation in the Shift programme facilitated the evolution of their systems and processes. While Beyond supported them in developing a plan to scale the business, incorporating a new operating structure. Working through the challenges alongside a dedicated consultant helped them identify new sales prospects and establish a sustainable approach to diversifying their services.

Results and the future

"The change that we've introduced to our business as a result of Gather will deliver value for us long into the future, certainly over the next 5 years and perhaps beyond that too."

Following their recent participation on the Beyond programme, the Kaleidoscope team successfully recruited for several roles and the team – and business – continues to grow.

Being a part of the Gather community also provided them with the chance to network with other local businesses. This association led to a partnership with a digital marketing agency, resulting in their collaboration on a significant large-scale contract.
