A spokesperson for novi.digital said:

“We are very proud of Aaron for this amazing achievement. As the Managing Director for novi.digital, he works tirelessly to ensure that the agency always meets the needs of clients.”

2020 has been a stellar year for Novi and the recent Sub36 award is representative of their achievements.

"As is the case with many businesses, this year has not been without it's challenges. During March and April our billable revenue dropped by just over 40%. Since then, we have managed to not only restore to previously obtained levels of revenue, but to exceed previous figures to achieve record levels for SEO and PPC billables, securing 18 new client contracts since April", Aaron explains. 

"It is our training offering, combined with our proprietary software in the form of Captivise.com that has allowed us to work with our clients to achieve significant growth." This growth has enabled Novi to be shortlisted for several industry awards this year, including the Drum Search Awards, the Northern Marketing Awards, The DADI Awards and The European Search Awards, in addition to the recent Sub36 win.

The team at Novi explained "The Sub36 Awards win is testament to efforts not only by our Managing Director, but for every member of the Novi teams who have helped clients to pivot to reposition in to areas of growth."

Aaron credits the award win to a unique approach, proclaiming "From the outset, we have built Novi for long-term sustainability. Unlike other agencies who have had to make redundancies, we have made two further hires and continue to recruit and expand our already brilliant team."
