The SenseCheck Story

How it all started

SenseCheck was founded by Roger Jackson and Simon Preece, two individuals with a deep understanding of both the struggles and triumphs of small business marketing.

Roger brought his extensive experience from leading his own small business, Shopper Intelligence, after years in the corporate marketing world. Simon, with a rich background at Elmwood – one of the country’s top branding and design agencies – founded his consultancy, Bigger & Better Things.

United by a passion for levelling the playing field, they recognised that small businesses were at a distinct disadvantage compared to their larger counterparts, especially when it came to avoiding costly marketing mistakes.

The old way

Roger’s view on why SenseCheck was needed: “I created SenseCheck because it’s something I badly needed over the years but never had. I couldn’t afford flashy agencies. But I really could have done with a sensible, experienced and, above all, objective second opinion. On my own, I had to just back my personal judgement. Right or wrong. Sadly, I was often wrong: I wasted huge amounts of marketing money as a result.
