The problem

A growing UK digital marketing agency had reached the point where client demand was outpacing its internal delivery capacity. Hiring experienced SEO professionals and copywriters in the UK was becoming more expensive, recruitment was taking longer, and expanding the team quickly enough to meet demand was proving difficult.  

To keep growing without compromising quality or turning away new business, the agency needed a scalable delivery model that could support its long-term ambitions.

Is your business having the same issues?

The solution

Using our end-to-end Employer of Record (EOR) model, we built a dedicated offshore SEO and content team that worked just like an in-house department. From recruiting experienced specialists to managing HR, payroll, and operations, we handled every aspect of team building.  

With clear leadership, structured processes, and seamless integration into the agency's workflows, the business gained a delivery function designed to scale as demand grew.

True partners!

"We started working with Black Piano only 6 months ago and in that time we’ve built a team of 23 performance marketing professionals. When I met Black Piano, I wanted to set up an offshore team, and I was thinking about going it alone. To any business owner reading this and thinking the same, don’t do it! Give Jonathan a call, and let him and his team guide you through the process. The speed they work is exceptional, their pricing is fair and transparent, and the additional support we get is invaluable. We’re true partners!”
- Nathan Kelsey, Founder, Make Me Local

The result

Six months later, the agency had transformed the way it scaled. A dedicated SEO and content team was in place, giving the business the capacity it needed to take on more clients, expand delivery without compromising quality, and scale with confidence.
