What are the advantages of working with an advertising agency?
If you’re a marketing director, chances are you’ve worked with an advertising agency—or are considering working with one. Maybe you’re looking to boost brand awareness, drive leads, or free up your team’s time to focus on other priorities. Whatever the reason, partnering with an advertising agency brings amazing returns—as long as you find the right one.
Let’s break down the advantages of hiring an advertising agency, what they bring to the table, and how to decide if it’s the right move for your business.
An advertising agency is like a trusty sidekick for your business. They help you tackle all things marketing—from explaining which ad channels you should consider, to shooting videos, to managing social media. Some agencies work as your outsourced marketing department, while others handle specific gaps in your in-house team.
So, what’s in it for you? Let’s dive into the top advantages.
Advertising agencies come packed with seasoned pros who know the ins and outs of marketing. They’ve already built a team, trained them, and worked on countless campaigns, which means you get immediate access to their expertise.
Need help with a tricky campaign? Want insights into what’s trending? Agencies have the tools, experience, and know-how to make your ads effective. For example, we were able to pull stats on social media platform usage for our client’s target audience.
Hiring an ad agency frees up your team’s time, so they can focus on what they do best. No more long hours spent figuring out new platforms or second-guessing strategies. Agencies streamline the process, helping you get results faster while saving your team from burnout.
Hiring an agency is an investment, but it’s one that often pays off. Their job is to make your ad dollars work harder, bringing in more revenue and growing your business. For example, we were able to increase claim fulfillments for the Department of Revenue by 28% year over year early into the campaign.
Stuck in a rut? Advertising agencies can offer a fresh perspective on your brand and campaigns. They bring creativity and unique ideas to the table that might not cross your mind after working in the same space day after day.
Keeping up with advertising trends is practically a full-time job. Agencies make it their business to know what’s working, what’s new, and how to reach your audience in the most effective way.
An agency does more than just run ads. They can help you define and develop your brand voice, ensuring your messaging is consistent and engaging. With their help, you’ll attract the right target audience and build trust with them, building brand loyalty.
Analytics, reporting, and optimization are all part of the package. Advertising agencies monitor your campaigns, figure out what’s working, and make adjustments to improve results over time. For example, we consistently run A/B creative tests and swap out the lower performers to continue to improve performance throughout the life of the campaign.
While agencies offer a lot of perks, there are a couple of things to keep in mind:
