Gogetop Marketing Named Finalist in Two Categories at the UK Small Business Awards 2026

Gogetop® Marketing has received two finalist recognitions at The UK Small Business Awards 2026, marking another milestone for the London-based cross-border marketing and communications agency.
　
Gogetop Marketing has been shortlisted as a 2026 finalist for Best Digital Marketing Agency, while Co-Founder and Director Yingqi Zhu has separately been named a finalist for Female Entrepreneur of the Year. Both finalist certificates recognise entries representing London.
　
The two shortlistings recognise both sides of Gogetop's growth story: the development of the agency itself and the leadership behind its international, cross-market approach.

Gogetop Marketing Shortlisted for Best Digital Marketing Agency

　
The Best Digital Marketing Agency finalist recognition reflects Gogetop's development from a specialist cross-border consultancy into an integrated marketing and communications partner working across the UK, China and international markets.

Rather than treating branding, websites, social media, public relations and search as separate activities, Gogetop has developed a connected growth model in which strategy, content, digital visibility and market execution work together.
　
Today, the agency's work spans brand and go-to-market strategy, global and Chinese social media, multilingual websites, SEO, GEO and AI Search, digital PR and media, events, exhibitions and cross-border market activation.
　
This model is particularly relevant for organisations operating between different digital ecosystems. Gogetop connects global platforms including Google, LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and YouTube with Chinese platforms and channels such as RedNote (Xiaohongshu), WeChat, WeChat Channels and Douyin.
　
The objective is not simply to translate campaigns between languages. It is to adapt positioning, content, search behaviour and trust signals to each market while keeping the brand itself consistent.

Yingqi Zhu Named Female Entrepreneur of the Year Finalist

　
The second recognition places Yingqi Zhu, Co-Founder and Director of Gogetop® Marketing, among the 2026 finalists for Female Entrepreneur of the Year representing London.

Zhu has 13 years of international marketing experience spanning brand strategy, digital growth and cross-border communications. She is a Member of the Chartered Institute of Marketing (MCIM) and leads Gogetop's strategic work across international and Chinese-speaking markets.
　
Her approach has centred on a recurring challenge faced by international businesses: a company may have strong products or services, but still struggle to communicate clearly when language, platforms, customer expectations and digital behaviour change from one market to another.
　
Under her leadership, Gogetop has focused on making brands easier to find, understand and trust across markets by connecting brand positioning with websites, search and AI visibility, public relations, social media and cross-cultural communication.
　
Commenting on the finalist recognition, Yingqi Zhu said:
　
“Being recognised in both the Best Digital Marketing Agency and Female Entrepreneur of the Year categories is especially meaningful because the two are closely connected. Gogetop has grown by staying focused on one idea: international growth works best when strategy, culture, communication and execution are considered together. This recognition belongs to the people, partners and clients who have trusted us to build across markets with them.”

A Growing Cross-Border Marketing Business

　
The SBA finalist announcements come during a period of significant growth for Gogetop Marketing.
　
As of 2026, the agency has worked with 120+ international clients and delivered 110+ integrated campaigns. Across selected managed channels and client campaigns, its portfolio includes 12M+ followers managed and up to 210% click-through growth.
　
The company has worked across sectors including education, property, professional services, financial services, consumer brands, e-commerce and international trade, supporting organisations that need to reach audiences across different markets rather than within a single domestic channel.

The latest SBA shortlistings also add to a growing body of external recognition. In 2026, Gogetop was ranked #5 among London marketing agencies by London Journey and named a London Business Journal Editor's Pick for Cross-Border China Marketing. The company's profile also records more than 65 five-star client reviews across independent review platforms and 70+ media placements worldwide as of August 2026.
　
For Gogetop, these milestones are less about collecting individual badges and more about building independent evidence around the agency's positioning as a cross-border brand growth partner.

Why the Recognition Matters

　
The marketing industry is changing quickly. Brands are no longer discovered through one search engine, one social platform or one market channel. Potential customers may encounter a company through traditional search, social media, PR coverage, recommendation platforms or AI-generated answers before ever reaching its website.
　
That shift makes connected brand authority increasingly important.
　
Gogetop's approach brings together brand strategy, digital marketing, PR, social media, websites, SEO and AI Search so that these touchpoints reinforce rather than contradict one another.
　
For international businesses, another layer is added: what creates credibility in London may not create credibility in Shanghai, and what works on LinkedIn may not work on RedNote or WeChat.
　
The agency's cross-border model is built around understanding those differences rather than treating localisation as translation alone.

Looking Ahead

　
The two UK Small Business Awards finalist recognitions mark another stage in Gogetop Marketing's development, but the company's focus remains on long-term international growth.
　
Gogetop will continue investing in its work across cross-border strategy, social media, search and AI visibility, digital PR, websites, events and international market development, helping organisations build stronger visibility and trust across the UK, China and global markets.
　
For Yingqi Zhu, the Female Entrepreneur of the Year shortlist also reflects the founder-led approach that remains central to the business as it grows.
