      Advertising Review from Gracey Thompson

      We've had a great experience working with this Disruptive. We work specifically with Summer, Brad, and Derek. They are knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely care about helping our business succeed. They take the time to understand our goals, are always willing to answer questions, and consistently bring fresh ideas and valuable insights to the table. Its refreshing to work with an agency that feels like an extension of our own team rather than just another service provider. We truly appreciate everything they do and would highly recommend them!

      eCommerce Review from Anonymous

      Right after launching our campaigns with Disruptive, we saw results almost instantly. Our monthly revenue jumped from about $50,000 to over $70,000. Every key Google Ads metric improved, and by November, we were already nearing $550,000 in revenue, well on track to hit our $700,000 annual goal.

      Digital Marketing Review from Sean Henke

      Anderson Collaborative runs our marketing reporting, google ads, marketing, and supports our digital and print design. They feel like part of our team. Anderson Collaborative's team are sharp and on top of all the ad spend movements and tweaks, especially Nazareno and Trevor. Naz's advice regularly catches things we missed and points out dynamics for our team to chew on. Anderson Collaborative's design and editing team also adapts very well. Carolina helped us re-design our entire original cookbook to digital and hardcopy format, including an entire re-design to a different book size. Not easy to do, and they nailed it. They're now helping guide us through a TikTok Shop launch. When we disagree, they talk it through with us and we land somewhere that works. If you want an agency that cares about your business and can help in a lot of different areas, I'd recommend them highly

      Digital Marketing Review from Steve Canfield

      We brought Anderson Collaborative in to run Meta ads for The Curious Thing, our personalized portrait gift shop, after months of trying to figure it out on our own. On day one Trevor delivered a full funnel plan and a clean campaign structure, and he has kept sharpening it since: moving our campaigns to optimize for actual purchases, sending every ad straight to a create page with the right style and product already picked, and giving new creative its own budget so each test gets a fair read. What stands out most is how deep he goes. He dug through our pixel data and even our code to explain a shift in what customers were buying, worked out which audiences had really driven sales, and his reported numbers match our own payment records exactly. When we flag something, it gets handled quickly and explained clearly, and every update tells us what changed, why, and when we will review it. It is a genuine pleasure working with Trevor and the team. They feel like a partner who cares about our business, not just a vendor running ads. Highly recommend. Full disclosure: my wife previously worked at the agency. We now hire them directly as a paying client.

      Digital Marketing Review from Wendy Watson

      I highly recommend Anderson Collaborative. Trevor created a beautiful logo package for my company, Summer Salt Gymnastics. My company logo is better than I envisioned. He included horizontal and stacked versions in main colors, solid colors, and black/white for the logo package. He answered all of my messages and emails in a timely manner and put together many drafts until we reached the final product. Thank you Anderson Collaborative and Trevor for your communication, quality, and creativity.

Advertising Agency FAQs

What services do the best advertising agencies in the United States provide?

Leading advertising agencies in the United States plan, create, and launch compelling advertising campaigns across digital and traditional media channels to amplify businesses’ brand awareness, customer engagement, digital presence, and sales.  

According to our market analysis, the most prominent service offerings for online advertising companies in the US include: 

  • Media planning and buying is the largest revenue-generating segment for agencies, representing approximately 40% of industry revenue in the traditional advertising services sector. 
  • Creative services comprise another core offering of traditional agencies, accounting for approximately 35% of their revenue. 
  • Search advertising, including SEO and SEM, remains the single largest service offering within digital advertising, capturing over 24.1% of the total market share. 
  • Social media advertising is a major and rapidly growing segment, with ad spending in the US social media advertising market expected to reach $95.70 billion in 2025. 

How much do these services typically cost?

Advertising costs in the US start from $900 for digital campaigns and can go as high as $100,000 for TV ads. The pricing depends on the region, platform, campaign, reach, targeting, creative quality, and the channel.

Overall, the estimates present a stark contrast between the high, fixed expense of traditional television and the flexible options in digital media. 

Type of media channel Platform / campaign type Cost
Traditional Television ads (local production) Start at ~$1,000 
Traditional Television ads (national campaigns) Up to $8 million (average 30-second national ad costs around $350,000) 
Digital Facebook campaigns$2,500 – $9,000 per month 
Digital LinkedIn campaigns $2,000 – $4,000 per month 
Digital Instagram campaigns $1,000 – $1,600 per month 
Digital X (formerly Twitter) campaigns $900 – $1,600 per month 
Digital Google Ads (banner ads) $1 – $3 per click (CPC) or $2 – $5 per thousand impressions (CPM) 
Digital Programmatic ads Generally start around $2 per thousand impressions (CPM) 

When can clients expect ROI from advertising?

The expected time to realize a return on investment (ROI) from advertising depends on the specific channel: 

  • Paid ads (Google, Meta, LinkedIn) can generate visible results within days/weeks, with lead flow increasing immediately as the campaign begins. 
  • Email campaigns and remarketing re-engage warm audiences and existing contacts for early conversions and quick ROI. 
  • Content marketing and SEO begin driving consistent traffic, organic leads, and compounding ROI in the 6-12-month range. 
  • Thought leadership promotion (blogs, webinars, YouTube videos) builds brand authority and returns value within six months to a year. 

What are the typical timelines for advertising projects from initial planning to launch complexity levels?

Approximate timeframes for advertising projects are: 

  • Smaller campaigns usually take 4 to 8 weeks from the discovery meeting to launch. 
  • More complex campaigns that require deeper audience research, new creative asset development, and multiple platform configurations can stretch further because each stage adds time: 
    • Kick-off and alignment (1-2 weeks) 
    • Audience research (2-3 weeks) 
    • Creative development (2-4 weeks) 
    • Platform setup (3-4 weeks) 
    • Testing and launch (4-6 weeks) 

How often do the advertising firms update targeting data and creative assets once a campaign is live?

Depending on the platform, top ad agencies typically update creatives every 2-6 weeks, while targeting and bid/keyword adjustments are often reviewed weekly. 

Here’s how often other ads are typically updates once a campaign is live: 

  • For search campaigns, the best practice is to refresh ad copy every 4-6 weeks, while bids, keywords, and extensions are reviewed weekly. 
  • For social media ads, rotating creative every 2-4 weeks is recommended to avoid “ad fatigue,” especially when audience size or ad frequency is high. 
  • For display or video campaigns (YouTube or banner/display ads), monthly updates of visuals or placements are recommended.  

Generally, updates are prompted by creative fatigue or targeting inefficiencies, i.e., when click-through rates drop, cost per acquisition rises, or conversion rates fall.
