Since 2015, BCC's top team have worked with the AA to raise the profile of its exciting subsidiary brands, such as AA Cars, the used car buying portal. One of the key goals has been to dispel the jaded, and frankly anachronistic image that car dealers are all Arthur Daley types with forecourts chock full of bangers and lemons.

Through a combination of authoritative industry pieces, speedy responses to important monthly sector data and features and opinion pieces in the national and consumer media, our job is to distinguish and elevate the importance of the AA Cars brand in its own right.

Recent proactive campaigns have swung between the heavy-hitting (the bearing of car finance deals on the longevity of ownership) and lighter (fastest selling used cars of 2020) ends of the scale, all the while placing AA Cars at the centre of the conversation around car buying and selling.

BCC's senior execs have worked with Uswitch for nigh on a decade and dovetail effortlessly with their internal comms team. For their mobile, broadband and utilities divisions, we set the news agenda with proactive analysis and research.

While the news changes daily, our role remains the same: to break everything down into digestible, comprehensive and compelling copy that always seeks to answer the question: “What does this mean for consumers?”

We love to peer forensically into the detail of every financial services space and Gatehouse, a Shariah-compliant ethical bank is a great example of how BCC's greatest minds have got to grips with a niche area and turned it mainstream.

‍
Gatehouse’s senior management team set the challenge of explaining to everyday British banking customers why Shariah-compliant savings accounts and home finance are a great alternative to the High Street. The result? Mountains of national media coverage and frequent appearances in the savings stories that personal finance journalists love to write, week in, week out.
‍

From media training, journalist briefings and interviews to proactive data-led stories driven by our own research and reaction to breaking news, Gatehouse Bank’s profile has positively rocketed since we started working with them.

​​The specialist lender Atelier provides loans of up to £15m to residential property developers to enable them to acquire, develop and deliver homes back into the real economy. It has a particular focus on urban regeneration, and the funding of schemes on brownfield sites that make a positive, sustainable impact in their local community.

Blue Chip's top talent launched Atelier in early 2020 and continues to use its exceptional journalist contacts in the property and financial services media to generate regular exposure for this rapidly growing lender.

BCC's brainy bods have also run Atelier Capital Partners' social media accounts, oversee all content it produces (internal and external) and also populate its website with weekly blogs — always ensuring tone of voice is spot on.

Octane Capital is a specialist lender offering short and medium-term loans, primarily to professional property investors and other HNW individuals with complex and often significant funding requirements. They're unique in the UK in that they're the first ever lender to launch without any products - each loan is created to fit.

BCC's key thinkers have worked with Octane Capital's founders since 2009 when they launched Dragonfly Property Finance, which eventually rebranded as Octopus Property. Through an unsettling, but strangely satisfying osmosis, we can now lay claim to knowing the specialist lending sector inside out.

Over the past decade, the BCC team has provided Octane with endless content, from blogs posts, speechwriting and web copy to white papers, email campaigns and advertorials — and anything else creative Jon the CEO and 'Poz', the MD, needed taking care of.

Paycircle is a fully automated payroll platform that can be used by accountants, bureaus and businesses directly. Its goal is to transform payroll from a grey and one-dimensional once-a-month transaction with staff to an engaging two-way dialogue that is at the heart of the employee/employer relationship.

Blue Chip's team have worked with the founders of Paycircle since 2015, firstly drafting all their website content and then PRing their launch. They continue to keep them in the media, with a specific focus on highlighting how they differ from (and are infinitely better than!) other technology platforms in the same sector.

Catax is the UK's leading company in specialist tax relief, specifically Research & Development (R&D), the Patent Box and Capital Allowances — areas that many accountants have just a cursory understanding of.

With over a decade of experience and a productive working relationship with HMRC, the firm has identified nearly quarter of a billion in tax benefits for its clients. Blue Chip's strategists have worked with the firm for longer than it can remember and its CEO, Mark Tighe, is a close friend and adviser.

Catax uses BCC's top team for content, videos, PR and pretty much everything else creative that helps them grow as a business. Over the years we've landed them countless in-depth stories in the national newspapers — for brand awareness — and the key trade titles that get the phone ringing.

Andrews is one of the biggest estate agency chains in the UK, with over 50 offices stretching from Kent and London along the M4 to Bath, Bristol and beyond.

Blue Chip's property experts have managed its media relations since 2018, ensuring chief executive, David Westgate, and several other senior colleagues, are regularly quoted in the national and local media.

Alongside PR support, Andrews has used us to create a variety of corporate videos, most recently in the summer and autumn of 2020, showing its customers what socially distanced viewings amounted to in practice so they knew what to expect.

Dashly is the UK's first 'always-on' mortgage switching platform. In slightly plainer English, once you've signed up to this little puppy, it alerts you in 'real-time' to mortgages that could save you money, even after any early repayment charges and other switching fees have been taken into account.

Dashly's goal is to end the apathy that costs UK homeowners tens of millions a year unnecessarily in interest by not being on the best deal they could (or by doing the daftest thing you can, namely paying a lender's 'Standard Variable Rate'). By automating mortgage comparison, using a combination of Big Data, Open Banking and Machine Learning, Dashly is a true disruptor and on target to end mortgage inertia once and for all.
