Following a recent rebrand, Lincolnshire-based electrical installation business Butlers has appointed Shooting Star to promote its services to both commercial and domestic clients.

Butlers, or Ray Butlers Ltd as it was formerly known, is a family-owned business which provides electricians, electrical engineers and electrical installation services to homes and business across the county and beyond.

Run by husband and wife Matt and Kate Cook from the firm’s headquarters in Sleaford, Butlers has ambitious expansion plans and is keen take on more clients, particularly in the industrial and agricultural sectors.

PR and marketing agency Shooting Star will support Butlers’ growth strategy by raising the firm’s profile as one of the leading electric contracting companies in the region and increasing sales for its electrical retail business which is also based at its site on Lion’s Way in Sleaford.

Managing Director Matt Cook said: “My father started working for Ray Butler in 1959 and subsequently bought and ran the business after his retirement. Butlers has a long history of serving the local community, but we’re keen to expand our services further afield and promote the fantastic team of qualified electricians and technicians we employ.

“Shooting Star is an established, well known company, and having heard the team speak at various events in the past, it made our decision to work with them really easy. We are excited to grow the business with the support of Shooting Star and we look forward to seeing their ideas come to fruition.”

Marketing Manager at Shooting Star Sharon Foster said: “We’re thrilled Butlers have brought us in to support them at such an exciting time and we’re keen to help them take the company to the next level.

“We have already struck up a really good relationship with the team and we’ll be working hard to raise the firm’s profile across Lincolnshire and beyond.”

Butlers’ Company Secretary Kate Cook, added: “The two companies have a lot of similarities as we do a lot of charity work and try to support the local community where we can, which is something Shooting Star is also very keen on.

“I’m really excited to see where our relationship will take us and look forward to making more people aware of our skills and expertise, particularly in electrical installation and panel building design.

“We’re a forward-thinking, innovative business but we’ve been guilty of hiding our light under a bushel. While we’re well known in Sleaford, we’re perhaps not so well known elsewhere in the county – but hopefully that will now change!”
