Wirral creative design firm Revolution Four is expanding after appointing a full-time social media manager.

Nick Blair joins the Heswall firm from Liverpool restaurant chain Mowgli. He will now be responsible for spearheading Revolution Four’s social media division which manages more than 40 online accounts.

Led by directors Nik Ellis and Justine McLaughlin, the firm is entering its fourth year of operation after launching as Whitfield Business Support in 2015. It has grown to a team of 14 servicing close to 300 accounts including clients in Australia, Hong Kong and Lisbon.

“We are thrilled to welcome Nick into our close-knit team,” said Justine. “He will bring energy and expertise to our digital and social marketing department. This was an important appointment in line with our expansion plans for 2019 and Nick is a great fit in terms of personality and skill set for our business model.

“The rise of digital media has fundamentally changed the way we communicate. In turn it has also demanded more sophisticated communication strategies. It’s no longer a case of shouting louder than competitors.”

Revolution Four rebranded in July. The new name and direction relates to ‘Industry 4.0’ otherwise known as the ‘fourth industrial revolution’. It also refers to the firm’s four core areas of interest – creativity, design, technology and media.

Nik added: “As Revolution Four has evolved we have found a niche in the market with small to medium-sized businesses. These businesses find our services particularly attractive as they can remove the expense of employing full-time marketing professionals.”
