Creative Marketing Group has acquired five UK agencies since 2023.
Buyers are usually larger agency groups, private equity backed platforms and strategic acquirers. Creative Marketing Group is an active UK buyer of digital, web, design, social media, marketing and AI agencies, and has completed five acquisitions since 2023.
Most agencies are valued as a multiple of adjusted annual profit (EBITDA). The multiple rises with recurring retainer revenue, low client concentration, documented processes and a team that can run without the founder, and falls when revenue is project-based or tied to one person.
A straightforward sale typically takes three to six months from first conversation to completion: an initial call, information sharing under NDA, an offer, due diligence and legal completion. Smaller owner-managed agencies can move faster.
Yes. We keep client relationships, retain teams wherever possible and plan a phased handover so clients see continuity of service rather than disruption.
Completely. Enquiries are seen only by our acquisitions team, we sign an NDA before any detailed information is shared, and nothing is communicated to your staff or clients without your agreement.
You can. Some founders exit fully after a handover period; others stay on in a leadership or specialist role. The structure is agreed with you.
Full acquisitions, partial buyouts, client book purchases and mergers. Payment can be upfront, deferred or partly linked to performance (an earn-out), depending on what suits you.
