During the 2022 FIFA World Cup, Brazilian football fans wanted to support their national team by wearing the official jersey. However, the high cost of the jerseys (R$350) was a significant barrier, especially given the inflation Brazilians were facing at the time.

FCB offered a 50% cashback on jersey purchases from Nike's eCommerce site in exchange for fans customizing the jersey with Flash's brand name and sharing it on social media. This campaign turned fans into brand sponsors and significantly boosted Flash's visibility, getting more than 5.1 million interactions and increasing brand mentions by 2300%.

Andrejs and his team were superb to work with throughout our experience. A friend had recommended looking up NEAT for our company's needed videos for an upcoming accelerator program. We came to Andrej without a very clear vision of what we would like to have created, and a very tight deadline. He was extremely prompt, attentive, and followed through on everything discussed both in terms of quality and timeliness. He and his team were able to react to last minute requests from our side and some shifting timelines, and were able to deliver high quality and impressive results. Two videos, one animated, and one interview style - both made big impressions and made our startup really standout from others.Nick WoelfelManaging DirectorSpartan Capital Intelligence

We came across NEAT via a video that they had shot for a friend's business. It looked expensive but was such good quality that we decided to get in touch anyway. We are SO pleased that we did.We had a tight budget and timeline so needed a company that was both affordable and efficient.We had a loose outline of what we wanted but NEAT were great in helping us focus down on the actual content as well as advising on the best types of shots, arrangement and music to make the video even better than we could have imagined.If you're thinking about contacting NEAT, please do it. They are a pleasure to work with (communication is second to none) and very knowledgeable.We are very happy with the result and will certainly be doing more with them.Thank you guys!

Moshe Atia's Review Sourced from Google
Kali is incredible. She went above and beyond to help me with a time-sensitive issue, ON THE WEEKEND (!!!) even checking in and offering support while attending a wedding! Her professionalism, kindness, and responsiveness truly blew me away. I’m so, so, soooo happy I got to work with her. If you’re considering working with Kali, don’t hesitate! She’s the real deal! Extremely recommended!
Marty Bugbee's Review Sourced from Google
I worked with Kali while setting up a new Breathwork practice, which was a major pivot from my previous business. She was very intuitive in designing a website which was a one stop for clients to learn about my offerings, schedule and pay for the service. The aesthetics were representative of my new brand and image and represnted the message I wanted to convey to any new clients. She also has been very responsive to post production trouble shooting issues. and does so in a supportive and engaging manner. I recommend Kali to anyone who wants a one stop experience in creating a website and professional online presence.
Caitlin Fierro's Review Sourced from Google
I've been working with Kali since October of 2024. I interviewed 4 marketing agencies before I chose Ambrose. I chose Ambrose because Kali was the only agency I met with who was willing to show me real data, and she didn't overpromise. She gave me a realistic pitch, and I could tell she understood me. Now that I've been working with her for 6 months, she's everything and more I wanted in a marketing/social partner. Kali and her team are easy to work with, honest, reliable, quick to respond, and most importantly I feel like they truly understand me and my brand. Since bringing them on my followers have grown about 30% & my overall reach is up 245%. My online store that Kali and her team helped me launch has had direct revenue from our social and email campaigns, and without them there is no way I would have been able to launch this store. In addition, when I was ready to start doing ads she brought on a 3rd party vendor she works with who is also clearly an expert in that space and while I was nervous to make an investment like that because ads are costly, I was grateful to have Kali be the go-between and work with one of her referrals because I trust her.If you're looking for a marketing team that will truly be invested in your company and your company's success, hire Ambrose.

Lisa Knab's Review Sourced from Google
From our very first meeting with Tony, Tim and Ashlee we knew The Felice Agency was THE marketing company that we were looking for to launch our new business! The level of trust that we felt in handing over the task of creating our logo and developing our branding strategy was almost immediate. And to say that they hit that task out of the ballpark is an understatement! They have exceeded our expectations in all regards. There is no doubt as we look towards the future, and launching our business, that The Felice Agency will be an integral part of that process. I can’t imagine partnering up with a better company…and it comes down to the people. I truly believe Tony and Tim care about the success of our business as if it were their own. You won’t find more creative, intelligent, genuine, kind, and hard-working people than you will at The Felice Agency!

The Felice Agency provides stellar service, creativity and acute knowledge of the marketing industry. I've had the pleasure of partnering with Tony Felice in multi-year campaigns, and as a partner agency, we're continually impressed by his team's creativity and dexterity in implementing effective strategies that get real results. The best part? Tony and his team are a joy. Fun, genuine and wholly invested in a client's ongoing success. Highly recommend!

They know what you need and how to execute!! Tony is a genius when it comes to branding and separating you from your competition so you shine just a little more than the rest.If I could have given them 6 stars or 7 or 8...I would have!

Sam D's Review Sourced from Google
Paid too much (we realise that now) for a standard website to be built with a template but were not supplied the files to update this. Also paid a very significant amount to have logos designed and were not supplied with the vector files. When we needed them, after a few years realising they had never been sent, this company argued, denied, and wanted to charge to send it over, “retrieve it” they said. “All design companies reserve the right to charge for files from their own archive systems “ this is standard practice” we were told, however speaking to other companies this is not, especially if you paid for and should have been supplied with them already within the terms of the service. The time it took to ask for the files is irrelevant. Beware, especially if you are trying to start a business and knowledge is basic, this is a company that will exploit that.

An advertising agency is the right fit for your business when it has proven experience solving problems similar to yours and acts as a growth partner rather than just a vendor.
In practice, that means it has worked with businesses that share a similar model, sales cycle, campaign mix, and ad spend, and can demonstrate an understanding of your goals and unit economics. It should also be able to adapt its strategy, communication style, and reporting cadence to your team's pace and way of working.
Here is how to tell if the ad agency is the right fit vs. a risky fit:
| Strong fit | Risky fit |
| Has worked with clients with a similar business model, campaign mix, and ad budget | Relies mainly on general industry experience or big-name clients without showing relevant similarities |
| Gives specific examples of solving growth problems like yours | Speaks broadly about results but does not connect them to your actual business challenges |
| Stays focused on your scope and business needs | Pushes extra services or capabilities you do not need |
| Clearly explains who will manage the account day to day and what senior oversight looks like | Presents a senior pitch team, but the execution team is unclear |
| Adapts its process, turnaround times, and reporting cadence to your needs | Requires slow or overly complex processes that do not match your needs |
The 2023 Cost of Pitch report found that 90% of businesses value long-term ROI over costs when partnering with ad agencies. Moreover, 56% say that trust is the most important factor in building a successful agency-client relationship, together with open communication and shared objectives.
The biggest agency red flags are vague measurement, weak ownership terms, senior-team bait-and-switch, and recommendations that ignore your context.
Before hiring an ad agency, ask about its operating model, project approach, accountability framework, and familiarity with your requirements.
Consider these questions:
Your advertising agency contract should define scope, fees, ownership, access, reporting, approvals, change control, and exit terms in plain language.
Look for the following in your contract before signing:
Including these items in your contract will help bring clarity and transparency to your partnership with the B2B advertising agency. Moreover, it will protect your business from data breaches, vendor lock-in, and legal risks.
After hiring an ad agency, expect a heavier time commitment during the first few weeks of the partnership. Once the agency becomes familiar with your brand standards, goals, and workflows, the time required from your team typically decreases.
Here is a breakdown of what to expect for each phase after hiring:
According to the ANA and 4A's Client-Agency Relationship survey, 40.6% of respondents have regular mandatory review periods for transparency, accountability, and strategy alignment.
Rated 4.8 on Google and 4.7 on Trustpilot, DesignRush Agency Directory is a reliable resource for finding top advertising agencies. We owe this to our executive selection team, which follows a strict screening process when featuring agencies on the platform, assessing key performance indicators, like portfolio, client reviews, and industry reputation.
DesignRush sustains a directory of over 40,000 agencies categorized by service category, location, expertise, and reviews. We build our database in two ways:
Agencies can also reach out to DesignRush and must go through the verification process prior to being listed.
Before contacting ad agencies, you must define your priority business objectives, success metrics, ad spend limit, expected timeline, internal decision-maker, and available resources.
Without that foundation, agencies will make different assumptions, which can make proposals difficult to compare and lead you to hire agencies for the wrong problem.
With 71% of CMOs reporting that they lack the budget to fully execute their strategy, it is vital to distinguish between "must-have" and "nice-to-have" campaign features before the first discovery call.
Hire a specialist advertising agency when you are experiencing issues with paid media execution and results. Conversely, hire a full-service digital marketing agency when the larger problem is coordination across channels, brand, content, and web.
Consider specialized ad agencies when:
Consider full-service digital marketing agencies when:
A realistic advertising budget typically ranges from 5% to 15% of your total annual revenue, depending on your growth stage and industry competitiveness.
For example, small businesses typically dedicate 2%-4% of their revenue to PPC advertising, with aggressive, growth-stage organizations typically spending more.
As a market benchmark, Gartner's 2025 CMO Spend Survey found CMOs reporting marketing budgets at 7.7% of company revenue and paid online channels accounting for 69% of digital spend.
The practical takeaway is to ask each shortlisted agency for a minimum viable testing budget by channel, then reject plans that cannot generate enough volume to prove or disprove the strategy.
Measure the success of your advertising campaigns by tracking bottom-line outcomes.
For lead generation campaigns, success metrics may include qualified leads, cost per sales-qualified lead, close rate by source, and pipeline contribution.
For eCommerce brands, success metrics to consider include customer acquisition cost, contribution margin, repeat purchase behavior, and return on ad spend (ROAS).
While platform metrics, such as click-through rate (CTR) and cost per click (CPC), are valuable, consider these as diagnostic metrics rather than success metrics.
Advertising campaigns may produce results within a few weeks or days. However, sustained ad performance may take 1-3+ months.
Typically, ad agencies dedicate the first 30 days to campaign ramp-up, data gathering, experimentation, testing, and conversion lag.
Then, they allot days 31-60 for campaign optimization. After 90 days from the campaign launch, you may record tangible outcomes, such as increased leads, higher ticket sales, and revenue growth.
The actual timeline before you see results will depend on current performance, ad channel, ad quality, target niche, industry competition, and the aggressiveness of your advertising campaign.
Common mistakes include choosing based on the lowest hourly rates, being overly influenced by the pitch, and failing to confirm ownership of accounts, data, and reporting.
To avoid these mistakes, look for data-backed case studies that match your industry, market niche, and campaign type.
Also, review client feedback and request client references to better understand the agency's project management style, account ownership practices, reporting standards, and approach to campaign optimization.
