3 years, 3 awards: The Byrå story
There is an incredible team behind Byra Marketing, and we could not be more proud.
What does “Byrå” mean and the story behind it?
Flashback to January 2021: we had a passion for helping more businesses, but no name, just a vision. With Tom’s Swedish roots and our love for Scandi culture, we landed on “Byrå,” meaning “agency.”
But the name is just the start. Byrå is all about providing honest, quality marketing advice in clear, jargon-free language that any business owner can understand.
In these three and a half years, we’ve earned not one, not two, but three awards, recognising our dedication to going above and beyond for our clients. The latest is “Digital Marketing Agency of the Year 2024 – East Anglia.”
Marketing without boundaries: the Byrå approach
As with most things nowadays, we exist almost entirely online. We’re sure you can see some obvious reasons to have a marketing agency operating remotely since 2021.
Being remote means we’ve built our team around expertise – not location. Each member of the Byrå team is experienced in their own field and driven by a genuine passion for results. They’re not just the best of those who can turn up to the office each day – they’re the best we could find, full stop.
We don’t get you caught up in industry fads; instead, we focus on the one part we know you’re paying for – results.
Our philosophy
The world of marketing is an ever-changing landscape of new technologies, benchmarks, and buzzwords. Honestly? Most of it just overcomplicates things.
That’s why we like to keep it all really simple. We talk to you in your own language, giving you the essential information you need to make informed choices every step of the way. We’re upfront with our progress, our numbers, our costs, and our budgets. We never try to bamboozle you with ridiculous acronyms or upsell you services you simply don’t need.
In short? We just want to make marketing more transparent.

With his experience across several different marketing/media roles, Jack's main skill lies in his writing. For Byrå, he takes the lead on our written content tasks. In my free time, you can expect to find me working on my novels, binging TV shows or relaxing with friends and family. I thoroughly enjoy working with Byrå and their wonderful clients as there is never a dull moment.
