About Stepping Stones

Stepping Stones is a consulting research agency founded by Angus Jenkinson in 1991 to help companies achieve value by optimizing marketing.

We believe in hard work; business results; better customer experiences; learning, pride and meaning for employees and associates; a fair partnership; and the power of insights and great tools

As a specialist in integrated marketing we help in four ways:

1. Developing an integrated identity. The key tool that we use for this is Stellar.
2. Developing customer and market insights through research and turning this into a powerful strategic business plan
3. Integrated c ommunication planning. CODAR is a key tool that we use here.
4. Facilitating workflow and operations through process improvement, facilitation, teambuilding and education.

We work not only directly with clients but also in partnership with other agencies and consultancies of any discipline.

Integrated Marketing leadership

Over the years we have developed as a pioneering leader in customer/market research and integrated marketing. This has been strengthened by our ties with the Centre for Integrated Marketing at University of Bedfordshire. Professor Angus Jenkinson, founder of Stepping Stones, is arguably the world’s leading authority on Integrated Marketing and Director of the Centre. This has led to even better insights, tools and methods that can really add value for clients.
