Working with a marketing agency unlocks multiple opportunities to reach your company’s goals. How? Because when you hire an agency, you’re getting the collective expertise of not just one person—but an entire team of experts. From graphic designers and copywriters to web developers, everyone has a highly specialized skill that can help your company succeed. And rather than just an outsourced contractor, the right agency will act as an extension of your team.  

As a full-service marketing agency, here are a few ways we help add value to our clients. 

We Dig Deeper into Your Brand Identity 

As an agency, we take an objective look at your brand and help identify what makes you stand out as a company. Through immersion sessions, we uncover the essence of your brand from the inside out — starting with you and your employees. We’ll ask you to think about how your brand would act if it were a person, how it would communicate and how it would present itself to the world. Using these answers as a lens, we develop a brand narrative and identity to distinguish yourself in the eyes of your customers. 

We Help Maintain Brand Consistency 

Consistency is key to building brand awareness and recognition. When we’re involved in branding projects, we develop brand guidelines that clearly define how your brand should be represented. These guidelines include specific rules on logo, fonts and color usage. This way, current and future employees, other outside contractors, and the agency itself can all work together while maintaining the integrity of the brand. 

We Offer a Fresh Perspective 

Marketing agencies are expected to be ahead of the curve when it comes to the latest trends, tactics and technology. And because we work with multiple brands, we get a firsthand look at what works and what doesn’t. We consistently pitch new ideas that we feel could give you a leg up on the competition. Additionally, we’ll act as a sounding board for your ideas, offering our objective advice and occasionally challenge those ideas. 

We Give You Access to Better Tools & Data 

For large companies, investing in marketing tools is a no-brainer. But for small-to-medium sized businesses with smaller budgets, pricier software may be a little out of reach. Marketing agencies partner with companies to get full access to web, email and social media analytics, which means you do them as well. Having complete access to this kind of information will give you more actionable ways to reach your business goals. 

Before getting started, it’s important to remember that marketing agencies are not one-size-fits all. Consider the following questions before partnering with an agency. 

  • What are my needs? Some agencies have niche expertise, like traditional agencies or PR agencies, while others (like us!) are full-service agencies with a wide range of capabilities. 
  • What is my budget? Establishing a budget ahead of time can help us determine if and how we can allocate our resources toward helping you.  
  • Who will be the main point of contact? Determining a singular point of contact from your company will help streamline the communication process. This allows for more efficient interactions and quicker turnaround times. 
  • What do the agency’s client relationships look like? Regardless of the agency you want to work with, pay attention to client satisfaction and retention. Although contracts can end for multiple reasons, happier clients tend to stick around longer.   

Managing all your marketing activities in-house can quickly get stressful. But when you choose to partner with an agency, we’ll handle the heavy lifting. Together, we’ll help your brand soar to new heights.
