At CG Advertising, our aim is to put your campaign in front of the right people, at the right time, to achieve the best possible results.

Our industry experience means we know what works, where to find the right opportunities and how to make the most of your budget.

And because we are independent, our recommendations are based on what we believe is right for your business and not simply what we have available to sell.

Get your advertising right first time, contact us today.

OUR VALUES Honesty. Knowledge. Personal Service

These values are key to how we approach and work with all our clients. 

Whatever the type of business or size of your campaign, you will always receive the same straightforward advice, experience and personal service.

Honesty

As an independent agency, we will always recommend what we believe is right for your campaign. This sometimes means we tell you when something isn't the best option to do.

Knowledge

Our Team has extensive experience across a wide range of media. This means we can look at the bigger picture and recommend the right combination of options to suit your audience, objectives and budget.

Personal Service

You always deal with a senior member of the Team, who will communicate with you throughout the process, keeping you fully appraised of where your campaign is at any stage.

We believe these values give us a strong platform to work with clients the right way.

We hope you do too.

Shuna Thomason | National Account Director

Over the years, I’ve been fortunate to work across a broad range of media roles - from Commercial Manager at Notts County Football Club to looking after bus and tram advertising at Adverta, to senior roles in local TV and, more recently, over a decade in commercial radio.

That mix of experience means I’ve got a pretty rounded view of what works (and what doesn’t) when it comes to advertising. Now, working agency-side, I use that knowledge to help clients make confident, well-informed choices across all kinds of campaigns.

For me, it’s all about making sure every penny works as hard as it can - and building partnerships that last.

If you'd like an honest conversation about how advertising can help your business, I'd love to hear from you.

Chris Greig | Director

cg advertising

I have been in media since 1991 after I left the Royal Navy. Initially in local press, I then spent a very enjoyable 18 years in commercial radio. I held a variety of roles at different radio stations ranging from Sales Executive up to Sales Director.

After several years of thinking about it, I took the plunge and set up CG Advertising Ltd in July 2015. Initially it concentrated on radio, as that was my background, but very quickly expanded to include all other forms of advertising. The reason is simple, you need to sell something that people want to buy, and more and more businesses were asking about bus and billboard advertising.

I am a firm believer in doing the right thing. This is why our sole purpose is to do what is right for all our clients.

When required, we say if something isn’t right for your budget and audience, then recommend what is. It is not a sales pitch; it is how we believe advertising should be sold.

I am always happy to have a conversation. No obligation, no pressure

    Chris has a wealth of knowledge and experience. His friendly, honest approach makes him a pleasure to work with, and he's always happy to share advice and ideas.
