Who we are.
Smith Brothers Media was founded in 2012 as a smarter way to do digital.
Driven to create an honest, open partnership with our clients, SBM delivers success through passion, foresight and innovation.
Our History
The SBM story began in a tiny office down in Chelsea. It wasn’t long before we made the move to a larger space in Cheltenham, but we weren’t done growing.
We acquired video production company 77 Productions in 2016, as well as the design gurus from SAS Creative and Designer Websites a few months later. With the addition of the full force of the CollectiveUs development team in 2019, we were able to round off our ‘big four’ services: Marketing, Video, Design and Development.
Now a full-service agency, SBM might be a little bigger than when we first started, but we’ve never lost sight of our original goal: to innovate, adapt and do things The Smarter Way®.
