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%.

We recently worked with Enviral on the development of our first corporate sponsorship pack, and their support has been nothing short of exceptional. They took this on entirely pro-bono, within a very tight turnaround, and delivered work of an incredibly high standard. From the outset, they were responsive, collaborative and genuinely invested in helping us get this right. They quickly understood who we are as a charity and translated that into a clear, confident and beautifully designed document that truly reflects our values. What stood out most was their willingness to go above and beyond. Not only did they produce an outstanding design, they also transferred it onto our own platform so we can update and adapt it in the future — giving us long-term tools and greater self-sufficiency. As a small charity, their responsiveness, efficiency, understanding and generosity have been invaluable. Their support has made a real difference to us at a crucial time. We are deeply grateful and would wholeheartedly recommend Enviral.

Integrated Marketing Review from Allyson Burroughs
I had the pleasure of working with Modo Modo Agency in 2022, when I was responsible for the complete renovation of Ricoh North America's brand narrative and visual design system, across all channels and all audiences. There were three immediately necessary elements - 1) internal communications materials about the overhaul of the brand narrative in order to build trust and enthusiasm internally for the new strategic direction of the company, 2) recruitment marketing assets to attract new talent to the organization very rapidly, and 3) go-to-market assets for multiple vertical industries where Ricoh was strategically focused on specific levels of growth. Modo Modo Agency helped me lead the charge by generating extremely valuable internal communications materials, visual design system assets, manager and leadership guides and more to help with evangelizing internally the evolved brand narrative and the new strategic plan set forth by the CEO. They also created a significant number recruitment marketing assets for a number of digital channels to help build excitement around the brand, attract talent, and encourage employment applications for the significant number of open positions the company needed to fill. Lastly, we worked closely on GTM initiatives across paid and owned channels for the specific vertical industries Ricoh had identified in their strategic growth plan. The team is strategic, focused on meeting business objectives, and delivering on the critical KPIs of each program. Modo Modo Agency stepped in quickly, delivered smart, well-executed, and effective assets for all the audiences and channels we needed to address. I would enthusiastically recommend them and would most definitely hire them again.

Really happy with our experience working with WIT Group. The team is super easy to work with, quick to respond, and they actually listened to what we need. They helped us clean up our strategy and run better campaigns. They know what they’re doing and explain things in a way that makes sense. If you’re looking for a solid marketing partner who delivers and doesn’t make it complicated, I’d definitely recommend them.
Brett Butler's Review Sourced from Google
I started with WiT Group back in January of this year. I own a small BBQ concept in Charlotte and from day one I have felt nothing but supported in growing my business. I don't spend the most money, but I get treated like I do. They proactively reach out and send monthly reports on how my SEO is progressing. I even have reached #1 in BBQ Catering in Charlotte. I have also seen an increase in foot traffic at my location. Recently I had a couple from Oregon and a family from Texas find me via Google while they were in town. I highly recommend working with this group. They will be a partner in your journey and will do what it takes to help make sure you succeed.

Working with WIT Group Marketing has been one of the best business decisions I’ve made. From the first consultation, their team took the time to truly understand my goals, budget, industry, and they didn’t try to push cookie-cutter solutions. Instead, they crafted a marketing strategy that felt custom-built for my business and stage of growth. The website they designed looks sharp and performs, fast load times, and drivesconversions. Within the first two months of launching our Google Ads campaigns we started seeing a consistent uptick in qualified leads. All they while they constantly checked in with proactive suggestions to improve performance, not just reacting after the fact. I worked closely with Josh Magnum during this process and found him to be responsive, knowledgeable, and solution-oriented. Any time I had a question or requested changes whether it was tweaking the ad copy, updating the website, or routing form submissions to a different inbox he made it happen quickly and kept me in the loop. What really stood out was their accountability. They regularly shared reports, explained the data in plain English, and helped me make smarter decisions on ad spend. There were never any surprise fees, and they even suggested ways to save money on campaigns without sacrificing performance. If you’re a small business owner looking for a marketing partner that treats your business like their own who’s transparent, committed, and easy to work with, WIT Group is the team to trust.

Absolutely fantastic organization. From the get-go, this organization has been invested in every metric in my business, from current metrics, goals, and CAC targets to our messaging both internally and to our prospective market. Haven't even launched with these guys yet and I can already tell they're different. Can't wait to see where this goes. Looking forward to expanding on this review with some metrics.

Bunari - PNM Jambi's Review Sourced from Google
Reached out to Toyber after a good friend of mine insisted I speak with Michael—he said Michael basically saved their marketing. Within a few weeks, I completely understood why. Michael and his team jumped right in, after a zoom meeting he told me why our marking stopped working and what to do to fix it and it was very impressive. They fixed our landing pages that speak directly to our customers, and delivered impressive results. Definitely worth the investment.

Performance Marketing Review from Kanhaiya Maheshwary
I've had the pleasure of having HawkSEM manage our SEM and SEO since January 2025. Before that, I worked with three different SEM agencies over the previous two years, so I'm especially glad to have finally found a reliable partner. HawkSEM understands B2B tech and what it takes to scale growth for a PLG company. They're also constantly challenging themselves to improve and deliver better results. While most agencies focus on lead volume, Hawk is one of the few I've worked with that consistently wanted to be held accountable to deeper qualification metrics, such as MQLs and SQLs. Ian has been a fantastic consultant, bringing a wealth of deep marketing expertise to the partnership. Cristin, Alex, and Yvonne have also done an excellent job managing the day-to-day SEM and SEO work. Overall, HawkSEM has been a great partner, and I highly recommend them to any B2B tech company looking for an agency that truly understands growth.
SEM Review from Olivia Ficarrotta
HawkSEM has been amazing to work with. They really took the time to understand outr product offerings and business goals and create a strategy that optimizes our SEM spend and reach. We've already began to see great results with thema nd love working theit team. They've extremely proactive and open to strategizing new tactics. Highly recommend!

If you're looking for experts who can transform your paid search strategy, HawkSEM is the agency to partner with. Ian and Dave's strategic approach, constant communication, and willingness to adapt strategies based on performance data made our collaboration seamless and effective. Their dedication to optimizing our campaigns was evident throughout the process. We felt like they were an integral part of our team rather than an external agency.

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.
