Overview
Brave Bison has assembled its capability through acquisitions: SocialChain in 2023, Engage Digital Partners in December 2024, Builtvisible in March 2025, The Fifth in April 2025, MiniMBA in June 2025 and MTM in September 2025. The result is a group spanning performance media, SEO, digital PR, commerce, social, influencer marketing and sports fan engagement.
Builtvisible, founded in 2009, brought SEO, content strategy and digital PR for retail, travel and financial services clients including Icelandair, Asda, Aviva, Specsavers, Superdrug and The Very Group. Its CEO and COO joined Brave Bison's leadership team as chief commercial officer and managing director of organic performance.
Published digital PR results are specific: about $1.2 million in media value (£948,000) for Avis, a 544% organic traffic surge for the world's largest commercial pest control company, a 312% share-of-search gain for G4S cash solutions, and a 329% rise in organic revenue for another brand. Clients include New Balance, Specsavers, SharkNinja and Real Madrid.
