FWD Motion | Strategic Marketing for Business Growth

We're FWD Motion

Based in the heart of Sheffield City Centre, we’ve been helping businesses find their voice and fuel their growth since 2005. While we’re proud of our South Yorkshire roots, our impact reaches internationally, with our client base across 15 countries. We don’t just 'do' marketing, we build business growth.

Strategic Thinking, Real Results

Our team is led by Managing Director, Mike Priestley. With three decades in the industry, Mike has seen trends come and go. That’s why he focuses on what actually works: strategy over hype. Think of Mike as your brand’s strategic partner. He specialises in cutting through the noise and translating complex business goals into clear, actionable marketing roadmaps that deliver a genuine return on investment.

Our Mission

At FWD, we focus on building long-term relationships and shared value for all stakeholders.

Our business is built around our core values of social responsibility and community engagement. By choosing to collaborate with us, clients are not only investing in high-quality services but also contributing to the growth and sustainability of the local community.

Our Sustainability Commitment FWD in The Community

Proud Local Supporters

At the heart of our mission is a commitment to the people of South Yorkshire. By sponsoring Rotherham Titans Rugby and the Sheffield Eagles, we're championing the region's rich heritage in both Rugby Union and Rugby League.

Beyond the stadium, our commitment to charitable work extends to the vital care provided by St Luke’s – Sheffield’s Hospice and Rotherham Hospice. These two institutions provide a lifeline of compassion and dignity to families during their most challenging moments, and we are honored to help ensure their essential services continue to thrive.
