About us
A website design and marketing partnership founded by Dani Martin and Joanne Davies, proudly based in Yorkshire and working side-by-side with businesses across Sheffield and the wider region.
The partnership
We started out as a small, hands-on digital design and marketing studio. Over half a decade later, we're pleased to say we've managed to stay that way. The only thing that's changed over that time is the depth and scope of what we can now offer. Most significantly, Dani held a board-level digital operations leadership role for a multi-location UK tattoo studio chain. This six-year-long engagement included work across technical SEO, analytics, CRM and marketing automation at a scale most small agencies like us are never usually asked to operate at.
That experience now shapes how we work with every client, bringing the technical rigour of an in-house digital operations lead together with the flexibility and personality of a small independent studio.
To complement our technical offerings, Jo brings a wealth of creative experience, shaped by a background working in the arts and entertainment industries, supporting the creative and brand-facing side of our work. As an experienced copywriter, Jo takes the lead on anything content related, making sure everything we build looks and feels right for the businesses we work with, as well as functions properly.
From first-time websites to complex, multi-location digital operations, we work with businesses at every stage, specialising in (but not limited to) tattoo studios, beauty and aesthetics clinics, and independent businesses throughout Sheffield and Yorkshire.
Technical & Operations Lead
Dani Martin leads the technical and digital operations side of Millside Creative. His background spans web design and SEO through to board-level digital operations leadership, including running technical SEO, analytics, CRM and marketing automation for a 12-location UK tattoo studio chain. He's just as comfortable writing code as he is reading analytics data or talking through strategy.
Creative & Brand Lead
Joanne Davies leads creative and brand direction at Millside Creative, drawing on a background in the arts and entertainment industry. She works closely with clients to make sure their brand identity and content genuinely reflect who they really are, rather than what is currently on trend.
