Following a year of exceptional growth and a national accolade, Bedford-based CRDOne has once again been recognised—this time on home turf—with two nominations at the SME Bedfordshire Business Awards 2025.
CRDOne, a thriving digital marketing agency headquartered in Bedford, has been named a finalist in two major categories: Business of the Year and Business Person of the Year. These nominations follow an outstanding 2024, during which the company secured the national Client Satisfaction Award and achieved record growth.
Established in 2021 by founder Carl Darnell, CRDOne has grown from a one-person freelance operation into a dynamic agency specialising in digital strategy for small and medium-sized enterprises. With expertise spanning SEO, paid advertising, and web design, the agency is known for its clear, results-oriented approach.
The recognition at the SME Bedfordshire Awards spotlights both the company’s expansion and Carl Darnell’s leadership. The Business of the Year nomination reflects CRDOne’s continued development and customer impact, while the Business Person of the Year nomination celebrates Carl’s journey from independent consultant to successful business owner.
These latest achievements come shortly after CRDOne was crowned winner of the Client Satisfaction Award at the Business Awards UK in late 2024—further cementing its reputation for reliable service and lasting client relationships.
Reflecting on this recognition, Carl said: “We’ve worked really hard to stay focused on what matters, delivering real results and staying honest with our clients. To be recognised not just nationally but now locally too is incredibly meaningful for our team.”
The SME Bedfordshire Business Awards honour excellence among businesses across the county, with winners set to be announced at a formal ceremony this June.
