Our Story
elm Edinburgh is a consultancy business which was founded in March 2014 by the Edinburgh-based entrepreneur Iain Mercer. The company was formed to allow Iain the opportunity to build a client base within his two core areas of expertise: commercial/residential property and media, specialising in PR.
Following elm's official launch in June 2014, the business was retained by Scotland’s newest multi-service law firm Gilson Gray LLP. Iain is one of their dedicated property consultants with a specific focus on growing and developing the residential sales strategy in East Lothian on behalf of the firm.
In addition, elm has pursued its passion for media by providing bespoke PR services to the Scottish property and construction industry. Iain has strategic influence over securing media exposure for a number of high profile clients and writing quality content for media output.
elm is also providing marketing services to a number of clients through its partnership with The Covey Agency; an Edinburgh-based advertising, digital and design agency.
