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.
PPC Review from Anonymous
We’ve been working with Disruptive on a long-term PPC strategy, and they’re constantly optimizing campaigns and landing pages based on performance. They use Google Analytics to ensure accurate tracking, Unbounce for landing page testing, and run ads through Google and LinkedIn, with knowledgeable experts for each channel.

Digital Marketing Review from Allison Spears
We have worked with Nativz for the past two years, and they have truly become an invaluable extension of our business. Their team handles virtually every aspect of our marketing, including website development, SEO optimization, social media strategy and management, content creation, professional video shoots, editing, production, and overall brand development. What sets Nativz apart is their ability to understand our business, elevate our brand, and consistently deliver high-quality, creative content that produces real results. From managing all of our social media platforms to developing engaging content and executing a comprehensive marketing strategy, they truly do it all. The quality of their work is outstanding, and their team is professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in our success. We couldn't be happier with our partnership and the results we've seen over the past two years.
Creative Services Review from Lyn Skibell
What sets Nativz apart isn't just the results, though those speak for themselves. It's the way they show up. I honestly don't think of them as a marketing company I think of them as a member of my team. They take a genuine, personal interest in seeing my business succeed. They ask thoughtful questions, they understand my goals, and they consistently do right by me, not just what's easiest or most profitable for them. In an industry where it's easy to feel like just another account number, Nativz has made me feel like a true partner. Their strategy, communication, and follow-through have been exceptional, and the impact on my bottom line has been real and measurable. If you're a small business owner wondering whether investing in marketing is worth it, I can tell you from experience: partnering with the right team makes all the difference. Nativz is that team. I couldn't be happier with their service, and I recommend them without hesitation.
Digital Marketing Review from Trevor Anderson
The Nativz team is filled with exceptional talent and is led by one of the hardest workers I know, Kristopher Feigl. Their team will deliver you exactly what you're looking for!

Video Production Review from Bryce McPartland
We were referred to colormatics by our ad people at krem. We compared pricing and products of colormatics against a number of industry-specific marketing providers. Colormatics had the strongest portfolio and, surprisingly, offered exceptional pricing.Colormatics laid out a full shoot schedule which was pre-approved. They arrived on scene early one morning and traveled across central Washington to four separate locations to make an exceptionally tight yet comprehensive video about our firm. We began around 8 am and wrapped about 430 pm.Colormatics maintained excellent lines of communication including via email, text, cell and the video editing platform that they utilized. I always felt "in the loop" with them.
Video Production Review from Allison Grunthaner Gibicsar
Colormatics has been an outstanding partner in creating a huge amount of assets needed for our biggest product launch of 2023. This includes but is not limited to: social media videos, product videos, mattress cutaway visualizations, YouTube bumpers, edited b-roll, and more. The whole team is always willing to hop on the phone or quickly answer an email, with fast asset delivery and willingness to bring forth suggestions/solves outside of their scope.
Video Production Review from Ryan Throckmorton
Our team developed the idea of showcasing individuals who are making a positive impact online within their own communities. When we shared the concept with Colormatics, they immediately explored creative ways to bring it to life visually. They transformed our vision into a compelling visual narrative.The final piece blended live-action footage with motion graphics. We conducted interviews and also wanted to highlight the social media activity of these community members. Their profiles were used as a storytelling device, appearing almost like flashbacks, but animated in a way that made the content feel like it was unfolding in real time.We’re now experimenting with turning interview voiceovers into animated illustrations. We believe these could resonate even more on social platforms. The plan was to compare performance between the two video styles, and we’re looking forward to testing them soon.

United States advertising companies prepare promotional campaigns for channels like search, social, connected TV, retail media, and out-of-home.
In essence, they help businesses turn attention into visibility, demand, sales, and sustained brand equity.
By orchestrating campaigns across multiple touchpoints, B2B advertising agencies enable companies to reach customers where they actually spend time and optimize each dollar invested.
In the last decade, advertising hasn’t stopped seizing momentum.
Global ad spending (excluding US political ads) is forecast to reach $1.14 trillion in 2025, with digital advertising capturing around 72.7% of that spend.
According to Gartner, companies allocate around 7.7% of total company revenue to marketing and advertising.
The US remains the world’s biggest ad market, with spending on track to hit $455.9 billion by 2025.
TV and video account for the largest segment, accounting for$353.9 billion of the ad spend.
Additionally, programmatic ads are expected to drive 85% of industry revenue, reinforcing their role at the center of modern advertising.
When broken down by industry, the numbers show a clear preference toward digital.
Over 80% of US ad spend across tech/electronics (87.1%), retail (82.9%), and consumer packaged goods (80.2%) niche is allocated for digital media.
Tech and electronics companies rarely invest in traditional advertising, putting only 12.9% of their budget into print, radio, TV, or OOH.
Retail isn’t far behind, with just 17.1% of the ad spend going to legacy formats.
The timeline for top advertising agencies to complete a project in the US depends on the type of ad.
For performance creative work, agencies can usually launch testable ads within 7-14 business days after onboarding, if the assets and brand guidelines have been defined. Here’s a breakdown of the timeline:
By comparison, full production campaigns (video/TV-style commercials), i.e., ads that require filming and heavier production, can be delivered within 4 to 8 weeks. Namely, it takes:

Before hiring an advertising agency in the United States, we recommend asking some of the following questions:
Every agency is independently vetted before it can be listed or ranked
Some agencies pay for sponsored placement, clearly labeled and held to the same vetting standards.
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:
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) |
The expected time to realize a return on investment (ROI) from advertising depends on the specific channel:
Approximate timeframes for advertising projects are:
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:
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.
