Our clients aren’t made in Chelsea, either!

They cross every consumer sector under the sun and whether they’re market leaders or a challenger brand looking to disrupt, they all have mass market appeal.

Not made in Chelsea since 2001.

We stormed onto the scene in 2001 – a time when girl groups and boy bands dominated the charts; social media wasn’t even a thing; and Manchester PR agencies thought the only way to make it was to be big, boring, and bland.

We chose a different path.

And while the world around us has changed – the girl groups have disbanded, the boy bands have abandoned their white suits and high stools, and life is now unimaginable without the likes of TikTok or Instagram – Brazen’s approach has stood the test of time.

From day one, we set out to be daring, different and relentlessly relevant.

Be Daring Be Different Be Brazen

And it worked.

Twenty-odd years and hundreds of awards later, we were named Best Agency Outside London by PRWeek … a huge compliment but one that left us with questions.

Like, should BBC Breakfast – which broadcasts from MediaCity in Salford – be a contender for the best TV breakfast show outside London or is it perhaps just the best in the UK?

And was Manchester City named ‘best football club outside London’ or did they win the (national) Premier League four years in a row from 2021 to 2024?

Sure, unlike much of the London-centric industry, we were (proudly) not made in Chelsea but make no mistakes – clients come to us for impact that leaves London agencies in the shadows.

Our expansive insights brazenly breach the constraints of the M25, helping clients create campaigns and content that reach their audiences credibly and authentically.

Our cultural connectivity looks beyond Camden, Camberwell and Croydon, to create news, experience, and influence impact that gets results and wins awards.

Our consistent promise is to challenge the norm through our campaigns and counsel to get people from all walks of life – right across the country – talking, sharing, liking, and buying.

We hire the most down-to-earth, straight-talking, friendliest and best talent from across the UK, who mostly now call Manchester and the North West home.

Our Everyday People

Made for everyone, from everywhere

As an agency that was born to be daring, different, and brazen we believe in standing out rather than fitting in. And that’s true of our brilliant team, too. We like to hire people that reflect the audiences we represent – down-to-earth, straight-talking, from all walks and life and who have been born and bred all over the UK, who mostly now call Manchester and the North-West home.
