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%.

Nicholas Woelfel's Review Sourced from Google
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 Woelfel Managing Director Spartan Capital Intelligence
S M's Review Sourced from Google
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!

What we appreciated most was their thoughtful, ego-free approach and consistent responsiveness. Every milestone was met on time, and they were always open to feedback, ensuring we were aligned throughout the project. This branding work has already improved our sales conversations, marketing performance, and overall brand perception. It was a seamless and professional experience, and were excited to continue working with Agency Squid in the future.

Agency Squid is truly unlike any other ad agency out there. There is no ego involved and they listen to what their clients needs are while still challenging them to think about things differently. The smaller but mighty team is well rounded and each bring a different perspective to the table. I would recommend them for any design/marketing, product promotion or special project. Doesn’t hurt that their workplace is so cool too!

Digital Marketing Review from Danielle Corriveau
We have partnered with Nioma as our marketing agency for years now and could not be more happy with their services. Our most recent project was our company re-brand from Son Of A Woodcutter to Acre Made. The team at Nioma had a clear plan of action, with many great ideas and recommendations for us to work with. They helped us build a brand that we are proud of and executed our vision perfectly! They are open to our ideas, and always build on them further, having a lot of industry knowledge and creative ideas themselves. We would highly recommend using them for your branding or marketing needs as they are a talented team of individuals that are always striving for success of the brands they work with!
Digital Strategy Review from Christian Szpilfogel
I can't say enough great things about Nioma Studio and the principal, Kate Bourque. The team has always been extremely professional and attentive to our firm's needs. They take ownership of their work and push us to be better. The team is enthusiastic about each and every project they have conducted with us and I can honestly say that they feel like part of our team. I'm proud to recommend them to my industry colleagues and beyond.

Hassan Khan's Review Sourced from Google
The creative content creation felt very intentional and well thought out. Nothing was generic or rushed. Each piece reflected a clear understanding of audience behavior and brand goals. It was refreshing to work with a team that balances creativity with data and actually focuses on outcomes instead of just visuals.
Ahmad Mandalawi's Review Sourced from Google
Their Ai seo strategy was clearly built around insights and performance tracking. Changes were explained, progress was measurable, and results felt sustainable. Instead of chasing trends, the focus stayed on building long-term visibility and attracting users who were genuinely interested.

Stephan and the team are great to work with. They designed our business logo, signage and business cards. All of which we get lots of great comments! They really make you feel special and at the same time are very good at what they do.
Susannah Cole's Review Sourced from Google
SJD World created a new website for my business. Stephan is the ultimate professional who goes above and beyond to make sure his customers get what they are looking for. He pays close attention to details, gets things done and responds quickly and he is incredibly patient (especially with all my questions and last minute changes). He has also trained me how to design, optimize and make changes to my website. Thanks to Stephan's expertise, my website looks better than I could have imagined!
NealJhay Morris's Review Sourced from Google
Ladies and gentlemen, SJD World has highly impressed me with their product and services. Communicating with the staff was a piece of cake! They were very efficient, attentive to my wants and vision, and gave me a timeline in which they stuck by diligently. They presented me with progress reports to help me make decisions easier... which didn't help me AT ALL because their process and choices were tough! I wanted to select them all but I was able to narrow it down and the designers were very patient until the final choices. The information was clearly given to me about their service, procedures, and as a customer, I was handled with care. I would definitely recommend SJD World for any designing needs. Thank you so much guys! I will be coming back for more! NealJhay

Gina Howard's Review Sourced from Google
Social Firm is the kind of marketing partner every operations leader dreams of. They’re responsive, proactive, and reliable - which means fewer headaches for me. From website updates to SEO and digital strategy, they handle everything seamlessly. If I need something fixed or improved, it’s done - fast and correctly. More importantly, they don’t just wait for direction; they bring solutions to the table. Marketing and operations have to work hand in hand, and The Social Firm makes that happen effortlessly. If you want a team that actually makes your business run smoother, you’ve found them.
Kim Garner's Review Sourced from Google
If you told me a year ago we’d be getting this many high-quality new clients in the door, I wouldn’t have believed you. The other digital marketing firms we’ve worked with in the past have underdelivered, but not Social Firm. They’ve fine-tuned our messaging, strengthened our online presence, put us in front of the right people at the right time, and since working with them, we’ve seen a steady, increasing flow of qualified prospective clients who actually want to work with us. If you’re in a trust-based industry like ours, you need a marketing partner that understands how to attract serious clients. The Social Firm nailed it. Their work makes my job easier - and fuels our firm’s growth.
Adam Koos's Review Sourced from Google
Tired of trying to understand what SEO and SEM are, how they benefit you, and if they even work? Looking for a team of people who will not only educate you and “get the job done,” but a team that takes the time to educate you, understand your business, and provide you with only the marketing you NEED? I’ve worked with three different digital marketing firms over the years, but none have come close to the level of strategy, execution, and sheer commitment that Social Firm brings to the table. They don’t just throw cookie-cutter solutions at you and hope something sticks. Instead, they take the time to understand your brand, your audience, and your goals - then they build a plan that actually works, all while tracking KPIs and adjusting your marketing strategy along the way. From web design and branding to SEO and SEM, every project they touch is handled with precision, creativity, and a level of care that’s honestly hard to find in this space. The team is insanely responsive, ridiculously knowledgeable, and they’re just flat-out good people. So, if you’re on the fence about hiring a digital marketing firm, let this be a review that instills trust. You won’t regret it. They’re not just another digital marketing agency. Quite frankly, they’re one of the best investments I’ve ever made in my business.

The Black Raven team are always a pleasure to work with. They are dedicated, hard-working, and never shy away from a big or unconventional idea — in fact, they thrive on it. Time and again they've taken our most out-of-the-box briefs and delivered results that exceeded our expectations. They're our first call for anything creative and ambitious, and that's not something we say lightly.

We consistently have a great experience when working with Black Raven Media. Seamus and the team take time to more deeply understand not only our client's needs but to also understand the entire category and formulate unique approaches as a result. The team are always solutions focused and easily pivot if roadblocks present in tricky executions. Highly recommend.

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.
