African Born. Globally Proven.
Built for B2B Technology

Proximity B2B Marketing was built on more than a decade of specialised B2B technology marketing, with a team that has led brand and marketing at global hyperscalers. Our roots are in Sub-Saharan Africa, which gives us a genuine stake in helping African technology brands earn trust faster and build market presence that compounds over time, though the conviction behind the work has never depended on geography.

We bring that experience to startups and growing B2B technology companies, helping them cut through complexity and build the human and AI capability that brings customers closer. Our work spans cybersecurity, SaaS, cloud, managed IT services, application modernisation, sustainability technology and AI. Our clients we serve includes founders, commercial, technology, and marketing who needs to reposition the marketing division from a cost to a commercial enablement centre.

How we deliver value

Not every business needs the same kind of marketing support, and not every business is ready to build an internal team. For growing organisations, an experienced external partner typically delivers faster capability, lower fixed cost, and broader specialist depth than internal hiring alone. We work across three engagement models so the support you receive is matched precisely to where your business is and what it needs to grow.

Areas of Expertise

Your buyers are doing more research before they speak to you, taking longer to decide, and consulting more stakeholders before they commit. The businesses that earn their confidence are the ones with the clearest positioning, the most consistent market presence, and marketing that is genuinely accountable to revenue. These are the five areas where we help you build that.

Brand to Demand Strategy

Most B2B technology businesses have strong solutions and weak positioning. Buyers cannot tell what sets you apart, and that ambiguity costs you deals you should be winning. We build the strategic foundation that connects brand, go-to-market execution, and demand generation into a single commercially coherent system, from value proposition and messaging through to channel activation and revenue performance. The result is clearer differentiation, stronger buyer engagement, and marketing that compounds rather than resets.

Partner Marketing

Partner revenue is often the most underdeveloped commercial asset a technology business holds. We build the joint messaging, campaign structures, and enablement programmes needed to bring shared solutions to market across SIs, MSSPs, MSPs, VARs, and reseller channels, with MDF-funded execution designed to generate measurable pipeline returns rather than just consume budget. The result is a partner ecosystem that moves beyond fragmented activity and becomes a more scalable, accountable route to revenue.

Account Based Marketing

The accounts most worth winning are rarely won through broad campaigns. We build ABM programmes across 1:1, 1:Few, and 1:Many models, aligning sales and marketing around the right accounts, buying groups, and deal-stage opportunities with the right level of personalisation. The result is higher-quality engagement with the accounts that matter most, stronger conversion rates, and marketing investment directed where the commercial return is clearest.

Creative and Media Transformation

We bring together creative direction, content production, paid media strategy and channel planning in a human-led process that uses AI where it adds genuine execution value. You can also license this as a built-for-you AI design platform, run under a creative director who holds the quality bar, so you scale output without losing the standard. The result is brand building and performance marketing working together, with stronger ideas, better integration and outcomes you can measure.

Marketing Technology and Operations

Growth breaks down when people, processes, technology and information are not connected as an interdependent system. We strengthen the digital and operational foundations that support demand and revenue operations, from website performance, technical SEO, Data, and AI-driven orchestration to drive integration and alignment across functions, especially between, product, marketing, and sales. The result is a marketing engine that reflects commercial outcomes rather than activity.

Challenges We Help Solve

The businesses that come to us are not struggling because their product is weak. They are struggling because their marketing is not keeping pace with their ambition, their market position, or the way their buyers make decisions.

  • You are losing deals to competitors you know you are better than, because your positioning does not communicate the difference clearly enough to a buyer weighing their options.
  • Your marketing is generating activity, but leadership cannot draw a clear line between that activity and pipeline, revenue, or growth, and that conversation is getting harder to have.
  • Your website and content were built for how buyers searched two years ago, not how they discover, evaluate, and validate providers today, including through AI-assisted tools.
  • Sales and marketing are not pulling in the same direction, and the friction is showing up in lead quality, hand-off processes, and budget conversations that should not be this difficult.
  • Your partner channel has commercial potential that is not converting, because the joint messaging, enablement, and go-to-market structure have not kept pace with the relationships you have built.

Why Proximity

Most marketing agencies understand marketing. Fewer understand B2B technology from the inside. Proximity was built by practitioners who have held senior roles across the world's leading technology brands, earned the industry's highest accreditations, and know how marketing earns its seat at the commercial table.

Practitioner Pedigree


Our founding team has held senior roles with leading global hyperscalers, and is accredited by both the Chartered Institute of Marketing and the Digital Marketing Institute. We come from client side, understand complex solution sets, and know how marketing earns credibility with sales, technical teams, and the board.

Built for How Buying Works Today

We are designed for the way buyers discover and evaluate providers now, not five years ago. From AI-driven discovery and generative engine visibility to intent-led demand and modern marketing operations, we help B2B technology businesses compete in an environment that is shifting faster than most marketing programmes are built to handle.

Commercial Depth


The gap between marketing output and business growth is where most agency relationships break down. Proximity measures success by pipeline, revenue, and the commercial outcomes that matter to your leadership, not impressions or content volume. That changes how we set objectives, report performance, and decide which conversations are worth having.

B2B technology businesses rarely struggle because their solution is weak. They struggle because their marketing has not kept pace. The right partner knows your market, measures what matters, and keeps your marketing ahead of how buying is changing. Proximity is built to be that partner.
