Marketing Agency Aberdeen

If you’re running a small to medium sized non-Energy business in Aberdeen, you may think to stand out you need an agency from down south to get results. But the truth is, working with a local marketing agency will bring you closer to the people, networks, and insights that matter most.

At Prospect 13, we’re not like any other Aberdeen marketing agency, we’re a trusted marketing powerhouse – fearless, real, results-driven, and bloody good at what we do. Here’s why working with a local team like ours gives your business a serious advantage:

1. We Actually Know Aberdeen

We live here, work here, and know the local market inside out. That means your marketing won’t just sound good – it’ll actually land with the right people. Whether you’re in energy, renewables, tech, hospitality, retail, or something totally niche, the chances are we’ve probably already worked with someone in your industry.

2. We Build Relationships, Not Just Campaigns

We don’t just deliver one-off campaigns. We take time to understand your business and create meaningful strategies that support your growth. We help you build the foundations, then we help attract the right customers and keep them coming. We’re in it for the long term.

3. Face-to-Face Support (When You Need It)

Microsoft Teams calls have their place, but sometimes you just want to sit down and chat it out. With a local marketing agency, you’ve got that option. And we love a blether!

4. Quick, Flexible, and Responsive

In a small business things change fast (trust us, we know!). With a local team, you can pivot quickly, act on new opportunities, or share that last-minute press release.

 “Along with the handiness of Prospect 13 being a neighbour in the building, your entire team has great enthusiasm in their roles and appreciate how we as a client may differ from others. Not everyone has the same requirements for their marketing and that’s what I like about working with you because you recognise that.”

Craig Smith, Managing Director, Phoenix Decom

 “We wanted a marketing partner with a fresh, digital-first approach, and Prospect 13 has definitely brought that. The ability to adapt to our business and provide tailored support has been valuable, particularly in helping refine our branding, marketing materials, and social media presence. The relationship has been easy and collaborative, which is important to us.”

Ian Mackie, Operations Director, Hall Morrice

“Cerri and her team get things done.  Cerri takes well-thought through risks and pushes us to try something to truly stand out. Her approach is consistently high quality. The P13 team listens, enquires and reflects, helping to problem solve with a systematic and analytic approach.  They know their stuff, and communicate in a straight-forward, jargon-free way. Cerri always questions assumptions, clarifying emerging ideas and demands you probe more deeply, finding new perspective and always moving you on. Cerri and Prospect 13 do more than consult – they are on our side.”
