Looking to find the right marketing agency? Or a new creative agency? Going to market to replace an existing supplier or add a new agency to your business?

Is this what you are looking for? If so contact us now to discuss how we can help you.

OPPORTUNITY

Selecting a new agency or reviewing an incumbent agency has become more complex and time consuming than ever before. Identifying the agencies available, assessing their core capabilities and testing the chemistry between your team and theirs can be a challenge. To undertake this process with the due diligence and governance it deserves is also disruptive for the marketing team. Plus there is an added complexity of being able to negotiate an agency fee that actually procures the level and quality of agency resources you need to get the job done and meet your expectations. There is also a need to match the search and selection process to the type of agency or supplier you want to select. Also, undertaking a long, detailed tender process may be a waste of time when appointing an agency for a simple, short term project. Yet you still want to ensure the process is comprehensive enough to make the right decision.
