About Sunny Thinking

Established in 2008, Sunny Thinking is an award-winning creative marketing agency based in Altrincham. As a small and friendly team, we have a passion for working with like-minded, forward thinking clients and partners who are committed to a positive, healthy, fun, prosperous and sustainable future. That's why we love to work in the sport and health fields and with family orientated brands, businesses, charities and the public sector. But don’t worry... we’re not totally 'Tom and Barbara' from the Good Life! We're experienced creative marketing professionals who are commercially savvy, who know how to communicate a message and the importance of profitability. It's just that we do it ethically and help brands, businesses and organisations we love.

Sunny Thinking is a clever team of people with oodles of years experience in advertising, branding, design and marketing. We call ourselves a creative marketing agency but that can mean different things to different people - we basically use our passion and expertise to come up with clever ideas to help brands and business share their stories.

A team you can trust

With an abundance of international sales and marketing experience, working previously as an Account Director for award-winning creative marketing agencies in both England and Canada, Jonathan Reed decided to go for it in 2008 and set up Sunny Thinking. Since that day, Sunny Thinking has firmly established itself as a unique, boutique, independent agency with a growing portfolio of happy clients.

Working alongside Jonathan is a trusted team of clever creative marketing people... graphic designers, copywriters, photographers, illustrators, marketing experts, PR gurus, digital experts, animation and motion graphic specialists, project managers and many more... a merry band of brothers and sisters, all specialists in their own field.

Staying true to our roots we're big enough to cope, but small enough to care. But most importantly, we're a blimming nice bunch of people to work with and we believe passionately in the work we do.

Our Sunny Thinking Manifesto

We’re not going all viva la revolution here, our Sunny Thinking Manifesto is literally a statement of our intentions, beliefs and passions. We think people get better results from working with like-minded folk so it’s important you know what makes us tick.

Sunny Thinking is about having fun with your family and friends, making the most out of life and looking on the bright side. We want everyone to live longer, healthier, fairer and have more fun lives.

Sunny Thinking is more than just a creative marketing agency... it’s a unique mindset... a philosophy... a culture... an attitude... a way of thinking... a way of living... a lifestyle for wellbeing. Here are some of the things that make us Sunny Thinking.

We also think it’s pretty cool to run profitable businesses in an ethical, sustainable way. Utilising our award-winning marketing experience from the last decade and more, Sunny Thinking helps clients who share our passion for human wellbeing and sustainability. We love working with clients who believe it’s not just about the ‘bottom line’ it’s more about the ‘triple bottom line’.

Sunny Thinking is also about giving

We put our money where our mouth is. There's not much point jumping on our soap box if we don't practice what we preach. Well we do. In addition to our ongoing work for our charity clients, each year we give a percentage of our time and profits to worthy charities, grassroots sports, community groups and causes.

In 2022 we are supporting The Greater Manchester Mayor's Charity to help tackle homelessness and rough sleeping in the region. We have also been selling our limited edition charity craft beer and will be supporting the DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.

Over the years we have supported many other amazing causes including.

Awards

The difference our work makes to our clients is ultimately what brings us the most satisfaction, but we’d be fibbing if we didn’t admit to getting a tad excited when our work is recognised with the odd award here and there. Whilst we've been beavering away for our happy clients we've managed to win quite a few awards in the process as it happens. Some global ones to boot. Our trophy cabinet (more a Certificate Wall of Fame to be honest) is full to the brim these days…more than 20 and counting so far!
