Cardiff social-first agency for content, paid media, web and PR
About WCS Agency
WCS Agency is a social-first marketing agency based at Dolphin House on Church Street in central Cardiff. Chelsea Pinches-Burrowes started it around 2018 as a side business and still leads it as founder and CEO. It is now part of WCS Group, which also owns Cardiff Life Magazine (bought in June 2023), Talent Cymru and the Cardiff Life Awards. The group bought the awards from Bath publisher MediaClash in April 2025 after their tenth ceremony.
Its staff are a quick-moving group of millennials with more than 40 years of combined experience. Its main services are social media management, content creation and photo shoots, paid media, website development, branding, PR, events and influencer work. SEO is offered but is a small part of what the agency is known for. It is an IPA Accelerator Agency and a commercial partner of Team Wales, which supports Welsh athletes at the Commonwealth Games. It also advises overseas businesses that want to enter the Welsh market.
The agency has no dental page. Apart from Greenfield Dental Practice, its clients are mostly consumer and hospitality brands, including The Celtic Collection, Hern & Crabtree, The Skin Lab and SWA Academy.
Its approach suits practices that want patients to discover them through Instagram and TikTok, regular professional photo and video content, and local brand building, more than those focused on technical SEO. Owning a city magazine and an awards programme also gives the agency local media and event channels that most marketing agencies lack.
Google reviews average 5.0 from 19 reviews. Reviewers describe the team as organised, fast and responsive, and say it listens to the brief and explains each step. Feedback often mentions product and venue shoots, rebrands, website builds and launches. Several long-standing clients mention ongoing social media management with close attention to detail.
WCS does not publish prices or minimum budgets, which are available on request. Its prices sit in a higher band. No contract length or reporting schedule has been published.
