About Revotion: Your Digital Agency in Cheshire

Where it all began

A Note From Our Director

My love of all things digital started in the 1990s, way before I started our digital agency in Cheshire – the days of dial-up modems and Netscape Navigator, the days before Google! Back then websites were ugly, had a limited colour palette, a small font selection, and were a navigational nightmare.

Lycos.com was the major search engine at the time, and Netscape Navigator was the browser of choice. Google hadn’t been invented yet, no Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram, oh and mobile’s were just coming onto the market. How times have changed.

I completed my first website (based on horror films from the 70s and 80s) using a drag and drop page builder called Netscape Composer. From then on I was hooked on all things digital. I’d always had a love of design and technology and decided to pursue this as a career.

Extensive cross-channel design and digital marketing experience led to the creation of Revotion. To create a digital agency in Cheshire, offering cutting-edge design and digital marketing, delivered with passion, innovation and creativity.

Qualifications and Experience

My career path started with studying Graphic design at The University of Salford, where the main modules were typography, branding and advertising. All essential to a designer’s knowledge.

There was a new module called Technology, where we were taught how to create websites with Adobe GoLive and Macromedia Flash, as those were the key players in the website creation world. How times have changed in a little over 15 years.

Since graduating with honors in 2006, and spending the next 10 years in design studio’s across Manchester and Stockport, the time was right to move on to pasture’s new. The shift had already started to move design to a more digital output, printer’s were going out of business, and once major players in the advertising industry were struggling. Robson-Brown, an ad agency based on Salford Quays in Manchester had gone bust.
