Our People
Our Story
Solt Creative was formed by long established mates Tom and Joe in the summer of 2022 following almost a decade working together at a design and marketing agency. With a fresh and ambitious desire to forge their own agency journey, their plan was simple; to be the good guys that do great work for great clients, cut the faff and bureaucracy that often comes with big agencies, and foster a lifestyle business that works for its team.
Unplanned milestones came quicker than expected; moving into their first office in Congleton after only a few months and expanding the team in 2023 and 2024; as did the more challenging chapters. They’ve grafted, been shafted, and had to adapt to the changing landscape of the creative industry, managing to stay true to their mission and values along the way.

"Since launch we've assembled a small but powerful team of creatives, supported local independent businesses as well as global blue chips, gone a bit viral on Instagram, made friends across the industry, listened to a lot of Radio 6, chased only the joy of being creatives, and only worn a suit once."
These are the people that make it happen:
Our Values
Honesty: We are transparent, truthful, and upfront in everything we do.
Accountability: We take ownership of our actions and deliver on our commitments.
Collaboration: We work together, leveraging diverse strengths to achieve shared goals.
Approachability: We are open, friendly, and always ready to listen and engage.
