SWOT Analysis

The Consult 

There strengths is a wide range of media and design style. they are very adaptable to different challenges set  and always have innovative ideas to keep there work fresh.

Weaknesses are probably the lack of personal project and printing techniques they don't seem to explore much when it comes to printing techniques such as embossing foiling etc. 

Opportunities such as a wide range of clients keep them creating different work appealing to a wider range of people. 

Threats are studios such as Box Head and Pixel room who are similar in there works and based in leeds. 

Sorted

Sorted stenghts are the fact the design and print commercial flyers and advertisements. not many other printers do design as well and i wouldn't call them a graphic design agency so they are taking a new angle on things.

Weaknesses design skills are limited and also printing methods and techniques are just digital based. 

Opportunities. They know there market and are perfect for this market i don't feel like expanding would help them they know there audience just stick to it. 

Threats  other local printers and cheap commercial designers. 

Beachhead Studios 

Beacheads strengths are there wide range of skills and can connect to there audience on a personal level making there work fit perfectly with there target users. there design is fresh humorous and masculine which is perfect for what they want to do. 

Weaknesses there website although nice to look at could contain more of the work they are doing. 

Opportunities for them are great they have produced work for call of duty the biggest selling game of all time and are very up to date with there technology.

Their threats are big gaming companies like sony, Atari, Microsoft and competitors like that. 

Socket Studios 

They are producing some nice design and the website layout is different and interesting.

not really screaming out to me it sits in the background not innovative. very inside the box design.

Based in london you really need to impress and they are just not doing that for me.

Has many opportunities been in the design capital of england but the competition is massive down there.

BERG

BERG are a very strong design agency producing outstanding work and even better concepts and ideas. 

Cant find strong weaknesses with them they are very all rounded in there print and design. 

Opportunities don't just come to them they make there own putting on events and things of that nature. 

Again based in london so competition is feese. Very proactive people so even without clients i think they would be very successful. 

Analogue 

Analogue is a strong company which speiclzes in a wide range of media and designs.
