About Malcolm Ltd
Purpose-Led Marketing.
Built For Meaningful
Growth
Malcolm Ltd is a full-service marketing agency helping small and growing businesses build credible brands, reach the right customers and create sustainable opportunities for growth.
We bring strategy, creativity, technology, artificial intelligence and commercial thinking together to deliver marketing that moves businesses forward.
Our Story
Why Malcolm Ltd
Exists
Many small and growing businesses have strong ideas, valuable products and ambitious goals but struggle to access the quality of marketing support needed to compete effectively.
Some rely on disconnected freelancers. Others attempt to manage every marketing activity themselves or pay for services that produce activity without clear direction.
Malcolm Ltd was created to provide a better way.
We give businesses access to coordinated marketing strategy, creative execution, digital expertise, AI-supported solutions, business-development support and outdoor advertising through one trusted partner.
Our purpose is simple:
To elevate brands and empower businesses to fulfil their potential.
Malcolm Ltd is a Middlesbrough-based, digital-first marketing company supporting businesses across Teesside, the North East, the wider United Kingdom and, where appropriate, international markets.
We work as an extension of our clients’ businesses, taking time to understand their vision, customers, challenges and commercial objectives.
Our approach combines personal service with the skills, technology and capabilities businesses would normally expect from a larger marketing department.
We do not believe in marketing simply for the sake of activity. Every strategy, campaign and creative decision should have a clear purpose and contribute to meaningful business progress.
Who are we
More Than a
Marketing Agency
Our Mission
Our mission is to help businesses build, manage and grow their market presence through accessible, creative, technology-enabled and results-focused marketing solutions delivered with a personal touch.
Our Vision
Our vision is to become one of the United Kingdom’s leading marketing companies and a trusted growth partner for small and emerging businesses.
We aim to build a connected marketing ecosystem that combines professional services, business development, training, artificial intelligence, marketing technology and outdoor-media opportunities.
By combining human creativity with responsible AI innovation, we want to make professional marketing simpler, smarter and more accessible to businesses of every size.
As Malcolm Ltd grows, we intend to develop strategically located traditional and digital billboards that businesses can use to reach wider audiences through high-impact outdoor advertising.

Malcolm Ltd believes artificial intelligence will play an important role in the future of marketing.
We use AI-supported tools to improve research, generate insights, understand customer behaviour, personalise marketing activity and make everyday marketing processes more efficient.

Our ambition is not simply to follow the future of marketing. We want to help shape it.
Our Approach
Personal Support

Meet the Founder
Malik Oluwadamilare
Adebowale-Oke
Malcolm Ltd was founded by Malik Oluwadamilare Adebowale-Oke, a marketing and business-development professional with experience across marketing strategy, digital marketing, customer acquisition, sales, banking, telecommunications and business growth.
Malik holds an MSc in International Business Management and Marketing (Applied) and has worked with organisations and customers across the United Kingdom and Nigeria.
His professional experience has shown him that many businesses do not lack ambition or potential. They often lack coordinated marketing support, clear direction and access to the right expertise and technology. Malcolm Ltd was established to help close that gap.
The Person Behind the Vision
Beyond business, Malik is a friendly, approachable and family-oriented individual who values meaningful relationships and quality time with the people closest to him.
He enjoys reading, playing video games and discovering new ideas. These interests allow him to relax, continue learning and explore the creativity that influences his approach to business and problem-solving.
Malik is highly goal-focused, ambitious and driven by a desire to turn ideas into meaningful results. His innovative mindset and natural creativity encourage him to look beyond conventional solutions and identify new possibilities for businesses, individuals and communities.
His ambition extends far beyond building another marketing company. He wants to create opportunities, develop people, support growing businesses and build solutions capable of making a lasting impact.
Malcolm Ltd represents the beginning of that wider vision — a company built to elevate brands, empower businesses and transform ambitious ideas into meaningful growth.
