Creative Marketing Services (CMS) is a Leeds-based integrated marketing communications agency.
History
The agency was formed on 17 March 1982 and launched on the first of April, 1982, taking over the Yorkshire office and goodwill of Scottish-based agency group MCS/Robertson and Scott.[1]. CMS began operating from the previous MCS offices at Sunbridge Road, Bradford. Early on, the agency received advertising agency recognition and secured it with ITV in 1985. PPA recognition was added in 1986 and they also gained NPA and NS recognition in 1987. By 1993 CMS was one of only two Yorkshire agencies with membership of the Institute of Practitioners in Advertising. [2]
Present Day
CMS has become a top 30 regional agency [3] with a national client list, a renowned reputation for grey market success (marketing to over 55s) [4] and a significant number of popular national clients [5]. Other sectors included the construction market where the agency oversaw a wide number of house builders, commercial construction clients and suppliers to the construction market.
The agency continues to be the longest established marketing agency in Leeds [6] and still owned by working directors and shareholders.
