One plan across search, paid ads, social and email, built for Bath's visitor-facing businesses and for the knowledge firms selling far beyond the city. ProntX is a digital marketing agency for Bath businesses that want SEO, paid ads, social and email working to one plan and one set of numbers. We are based in London, work with Bath clients through video calls and shared dashboards, and our digital marketing starts from £595 a month on a rolling contract with no lock-in. ### A visitor economy that wants to diversify Bath and North East Somerset Council’s economic strategy describes a district weighted towards public sector, retail, leisure and tourism jobs, and sets out an aim to grow creative, digital and technology work under a “City of Ideas” vision. A council cultural strategy review also names creative and digital as a key sector for growth. So a digital marketing plan in Bath usually serves one of two very different businesses: those selling to visitors, and those selling expertise far beyond the city. ### Knowledge firms with national reach Wikipedia lists Future plc, the magazine and digital publisher, as employing around 650 people in Bath, with the engineering firm Buro Happold at about 400 and IPL at around 250. Firms like these, and the consultancies and software businesses around them, buy and sell nationally. For their suppliers and peers, “digital marketing agency Bath” is often a search for a team that can run B2B campaigns, not a local listings service. Two plans ## What should digital marketing look like for a Bath business? It depends who your customer is. Visitor-facing firms need to be found while people plan and while they are in the city; B2B firms need to be found, trusted and remembered over a long buying cycle. Visitor-facing ### Hotels, restaurants, attractions, shops Bath attracts over 6 million visitors a year and is one of the ten English cities most visited by overseas tourists. Many of those visitors search before they travel and again on their phones once they arrive. The plan combines local search and Google Business Profile, paid search timed to booking windows, social content that shows the experience, and email to bring past guests back. B2B and professional ### Engineering, publishing, software, services Buyers research quietly, compare suppliers and bring in colleagues. The plan focuses on expert content that ranks for problem-led searches, LinkedIn targeting by role and sector, nurture email under PECR rules for corporate subscribers, and reporting tied to pipeline in your CRM. Your technical lead approves claims. Many Bath businesses sit across both. A specialist retailer may serve tourists in the shop and national customers online; an architectural practice may want local planning-related enquiries and national commissions. We set budgets per audience so one does not quietly eat the other. The local market ## How competitive is digital marketing in Bath? Very, for a city of its size. Bath has its own established agencies, Bristol agencies market to Bath clients, and London firms compete too. When we checked the results for “digital marketing agency Bath”, we found full-service agencies, paid media specialists, ecommerce specialists and a strategic consultancy, plus Sortlist and Digital Agency Network directories. Some local agencies also target nearby towns such as Bradford-on-Avon, Trowbridge, Chippenham and Melksham. The Creative Bath directory lists many more independent marketers and studios. You have real choice here, which is a good reason to compare scopes rather than sales pitches. - A written scope showing what each channel gets each month - Ad, analytics and CRM accounts in your name - Ad spend paid direct to Google, Meta or LinkedIn - Rolling monthly terms, no 12-month contract - Reports that show enquiries and revenue, not only reach - A reply within one working day ProntX is a London team, not a Bath office. We work with Bath businesses remotely and meet in person by arrangement. What we offer is one senior team that can build your website, run search and ads, and handle social and email, at published prices. Seasonality ## How do you plan marketing around Bath’s busy and quiet periods? By shifting budget across channels as demand moves, rather than spending the same every month. For visitor-facing firms, paid search and social budgets rise ahead of peak booking periods and fall back in quieter months, while SEO and email keep working all year. Quiet months are the time to fix the website, improve Google Business Profile content and build the email list that fills the next peak. For residents, the picture is steadier: the NHS, both universities and the council are among the city’s major employers, so local service demand from people who live and work in Bath continues when visitor numbers dip. A rolling contract lets you adjust the plan month by month. Pricing ## How much does a digital marketing agency in Bath cost? ProntX digital marketing starts from £595 a month, ex VAT.

It plans and runs the online channels that bring you customers: search engine optimisation, Google Ads, social media, email and the tracking behind them. For Bath, that often means separate plans for visitors and for residents or business buyers. ProntX runs these channels as one programme, reported against enquiries, bookings and revenue. ### How much does digital marketing cost in Bath? Our digital marketing starts from £595 a month, ex VAT. Hotels, restaurants and retailers running several channels typically pay £1,200 to £2,000 a month, and national B2B programmes typically start around £2,000. Ad spend is paid direct to the platform on top. Final pricing depends on scope and is agreed in writing first. ### Do you offer B2B digital marketing in Bath? Yes. Bath has engineering, publishing, software and professional services firms that sell across the UK. For them we combine expert search content, LinkedIn campaigns targeted by role and sector, nurture email and CRM-linked reporting. Your technical or compliance lead approves claims before anything is published. ### Should I use a Bath agency or one from London? Choose the team with the right skills, clear pricing and honest reporting. Bath has capable local agencies and Bristol is close by. ProntX is based in London and works with Bath clients remotely, with in-person meetings by arrangement. Ask each agency for a written scope and examples of similar work before deciding. ### How do you handle tourist seasonality? We move budget with demand. Paid search and social rise ahead of peak booking periods, while SEO and email run all year. Quieter months are used to improve the website, Google Business Profile and email list. Because our contract is rolling monthly, you can scale activity up or down without penalty. ### Can you help a Bath business reach overseas visitors? Yes. Bath is one of the ten English cities most visited by overseas tourists. We can target paid campaigns by country and language, make sure your Google Business Profile and website answer common visitor questions, and set up tracking for bookings made from abroad. Translation of key pages can be scoped if needed. ### How soon will I see results? Paid search can bring traffic within one to two weeks of launch. SEO usually takes three to six months to build meaningful results. Email and social improvements show in engagement within weeks. We agree targets for each channel in the plan and report monthly so you can see progress early. ### Will I own my accounts and data? Yes. Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn, analytics and email accounts are set up in your business's name, and we work with access you grant. Ad spend is billed to you directly by the platform. If you leave, you keep every account, campaign and report. ## Price From £595 per month plus VAT.
