      When we made a commitment to really lean into the podcasting space, we needed to find an expert, an agency that was doing it better than anyone else. That's why we built our partnership with ARM. They have authority in the space from execution, to network relationships and especially brand safety.

      Working with Breuk and the team at 8grape was one of the best decisions we made for our dental tourism startup. His knowledge, insight, and guidance were invaluable from day one. He took the time to educate us on SEO, how to properly maintain our website, and the strategies needed to build strong organic traffic. The results far exceeded our expectations, and our growth reflected the quality of his work. Beyond his expertise, Breuk is genuinely enjoyable to work with - smart, approachable, and always willing to explain the "why" behind his recommendations. I wouldn't hesitate to work with Breuk again and highly recommend them to anyone looking to grow their online presence.

      I did some work with Feld on a commercial shoot in October 2024. I was never paid. I tried contacting them through email, phone and the contact form on their website. The only people who got back to me were freelancers who were contracted for the shoot, some of whom said that they hadn't been paid either. Anyone directly associated with Feld was completely unresponsive.

      Working Solutions had the privilege of working with Gunderson Direct on our first-ever annual report. We had a wonderful experience and recommend Gunderson Direct wholeheartedly! From the project management to the graphic design, every aspect of their work was stellar. The Gunderson Direct team is extremely talented, and they took the time to understand our organization's mission and our goals for this report. The designs developed were unique, visually compelling, and effectively shared the impact of Working Solutions. The team made it easy for us to respond to iterations of the report, and they were very receptive to our feedback. The project manager was excellent, with clear communication throughout the process. She kept us on schedule while also being flexible to accommodate our own scheduling needs. If we could give Gunderson Direct more than five stars, we absolutely would!

      I took the leap to join the program, and it is better than expected. A LOT of valuable content that walks you through how to set your entire empire up, step by step. There have been some times I felt like quitting and giving up. BUT, i stuck with it, and all of the pieces are coming together how they should. It speaks to the future you that you want to become when you just grind and focus on building this business with LMA. It is literally the best program I've done. With 1:1 mentorship from people who have actually built an online business before, you can't fail. You can only fail if you choose to give up and walk away. Thanks LMA for this valuable course. It really has helped me transform my thinking about myself and my future. Can't wait to drive that lambo!!

      I hate to leave this review but this company has hired a third party "cold call" email service that has been harassing me for months, including emails for services from the Launch Agency. Maybe if their clients start getting bad reviews, they will stop spaming those of us who never asked to be on this god awful list.

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.
