North West public relations company Active Profile is stepping into spring with a trio of new business wins and a 79% increase in turnover compared to the same time last year.
 
The Liverpool and Manchester based team has been appointed to provide PR, marketing and event support to YFM Equity Partners, the £30million Chrysalis Fund and leading property auctioneer, Pugh & Co.
 
YFM Equity Partners are managers of the North West Fund for Development Capital and specialise in transforming businesses through investing between £100k and £10m. YFM currently has a portfolio of over 200 companies in the UK.
 
Last week Active Profile organised the launch of The Chrysalis Fund, a £30m fund seeking to develop high quality strategic urban sites and premises in Merseyside over the next three years. As part of the launch, Active Profile also developed the Fund’s brand and its website, which went live at the event. Active Profile is now contracted to work with the fund going forward.
 
The agency is also working with national commercial and residential property auctioneer Pugh & Co to help raise awareness of the business and its auctions throughout Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds and Newcastle.
 
Active Profile managing director Anna Heyes (pictured) said: “We’ve had a flying start to the year with new appointments and new contracts. Our revenue in comparison to the same period last year is up 79% which is quite an achievement.
 
“These recent wins further strengthen our portfolio of property and professional service clients and are great brand names to be building in the North.”
