Chrysler wanted to make the Pacifica more appealing to modern families, and the rise of the #VanLife trend created an opportunity to shift perceptions of the minivan. Doner connected this trend to everyday parenting by highlighting Pacifica’s practical, family-friendly features through engaging video content across broadcast and social media.

FCB's impact is validated by numerous awards and recognitions in the industry, including the Cannes Lions and Effie Awards. The agency combines creative storytelling with deep insights into consumer behavior, aiming to create accessible advertisements that capture attention and drive meaningful results for its clients.
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. This situation challenged FCB's client, Flash, to engage with fans and allow them to express their support.
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%.

Our growth and ROI over the past year has been tremendous. I can’t say enough about their team, their responsiveness and overall their work.

We hired Visual Realm to bring leads to my husband construction company. It’s hard to believe how we ever ran the business without them. Having Visual Realm is like having employees in your company to do anything and everything that comes with marketing. We have used them for collateral printing like brochures and folders, we’ve also updated our brand, our website and we rely on their online marketing, SEO and Google Pay Per click to fill our books. We’ve been able to expand the business tremendously over the last few years. It also helps that they don’t nickel and dime us, they are extremely honest and you can tell they take pride in what they do. I can honestly say they changed our lives. We are thrilled to have them on the team.

They were able to keep up with our changing priorities as a startup, and even after our brand direction had to drastically change due to some unforeseen circumstances, they were happy to come up with another great design and still execute the website on time. While the entire team was great, our account manager Sam consistently went above and beyond to ensure our project was delivered correctly and just felt like he was an extension of our marketing team.

Web App Review from Wael Hasan
We engaged the Quinn team for a recent platform redesign and rebranding project for our organization, SofiaConnect and I can vouch that it was an exceptional experience across the board. They first of all patiently listened to our complaints and expectations, converting them into a very appealing and efficient and versatile website as per our clients range. The aspect where they were particularly impressive is how they ensured that we stuck to the approved designs. They made sure that this site was fully ADA compliant, and all programed in a manner that would address all our accessibility needs. There was no less to praise in the development phase; the team was as efficient as they were during the design process, offering us a user-friendly CMS backend for the site, which was rather easy to handle. When ever there emerged problems, Quinn went out of his way to seek and to put into practice appropriate measures. Being willing to help out, to go the extra mile especially when deadlines are imminent, or when there are skill constraints, was very useful. What is achieved is an elegant and finely tuned environment that is entirely focused on the end user and sits perfectly at the heart of our firms values.

They bring professionalism, creativity and innovation to every project, but what really stands out is the way they create a sense of belonging, not just for their clients, but for the crew and people on camera. They’re not afraid to try something different if it tells a better story - like filming on the fly with real people, real environments, and real emotion. That human, thoughtful approach leads to content that actually connects. I highly recommend working with the Belong Creative team!

Positive impressions continue to grow and so does our recognition in the local AEC community. We've been so happy with their performance, we have expanded their scope of services multiple times, including inviting them to our 25th Anniversary / Grand Opening. We couldn't give them a higher recommendation for companies looking to rebrand or increase awareness. 100% top-notch firm: Commit Agency.

A huge thank you to Jean-Claude for his work on our logo, which perfectly represents our project.

Jean-Claude is an incredibly talented and reliable graphic designer based in Lausanne. We've worked with him multiple times, and every experience has been excellent. He has a real gift for taking abstract ideas and turning them into high-quality visual concepts and branding assets. Whether it's logos, web design elements, or marketing materials, Jean-Claude consistently delivers creative, professional results—on time and with great attention to detail. If you're looking for a graphic designer in Lausanne who truly understands how to bring your vision to life, I highly recommend Jean-Claude.
Jean-François Richer's Review Sourced from Google
We commissioned Haymoz Design to create the logo for the Crissier Public Library. Mr. Haymoz was attentive, open to discussion, very available, and always offered sound advice, truly seeking to understand our needs. He offered us a variety of solutions, which allowed us to explore different avenues and more easily choose the direction that best suited us. As a result, we are delighted and proud of the chosen logo, which is rich in meaning, modern, and refreshing. It perfectly reflects our identity, our audience, and everyone we address. Professionals and users alike identify with it. I highly recommend Haymoz Design for any visual identity creation!

Creative Services Review from Andy Blevins
Social Driver provided branding services for the merger of two national LGBTQ military & veteran nonprofits. They incorporated insight from two boards to produce a name, logo, and branding package. The deliverables have all earned high praise, with the logo and overall brand being versatile and simple. All deadlines were met and communication was a highlight. Their smooth and streamlined process helped us pull everything under the same umbrella to have a united front. I highly recommend them!
Social Media Marketing Review from David Sallee
Social Driver provided social media marketing workshops and advice for the departments on campus which were involved in social media marketing, such as alumni, athletics, and advancement. Their staff provided in-depth instruction for all appropriate staff and follow-up conversations to support their work. Social Driver has very strong technical skills. They also demonstrate a very high level of insight for applications of social media that go far beyond technical insights into human insights.
Web Design Review from Eileen Kessler
My company worked with Social Driver to redesign the UX/IA for a national scientific organization's extensive research resource that was moving from print to online. There was a tight deadline to conceptualize a new user experience and create a framework that our client could review iteratively. Our client was very pleased with the results of the new interactive framework and design. This design was used for the build of the web site which began immediately upon completion. Highly recommend!

Web Design Review from Christopher Calarco, D.C.
Our company had an excellent experience partnering with Jeremy and the 97 Switch team on our website and SEO. The initial build was on a tight timeline that was kept, and after the sites completion we saw a significant increase in new business coming our way. More medical professionals learned about us and wanted to join our network, which was an amazing bonus of working with 97 Switch. We've committed to work with 97 Switch for the next several years given they have been crucial in guiding our plan for growth.
Web Design Review from Justyna Chrupek
We hired them to build a new website. The website was quickly completed in just a couple months, and weve seen markedly positive results from 97 Switchs efforts. It's a new marketing feature that we use on a daily basis. The improved quality has facilitated our communication and made things much easier. Weve received great feedback from our vendors, investors, and customers who want to view our properties. Internally, our staff is excited to see what's going on in our company. We are definitely proud of our new platform. Our executive team is excited to be featured on the new website; previously, they didn't even want their picture shown. Before this redesign, we were almost embarrassed to send out the link. Now, we can comfortably share it with our investors, potential investors, and landlords so they keep track of our updates on a monthly basis. We love how this site presents the face of our company.
Web Design Review from Adam Greenberg
We've seen tremendous growth and exposure. The website has generated a number of new leads and weve received tons of cold calls from potential clients. This is thanks to 97 Switchs efforts to increase our digital exposure. We communicate primarily via phone and email and theyre highly responsive. I receive a response to emails within minutes and they get back to me within half an hour if I request a phone call. They're able to conduct face-to-face interactions in order to truly understand the goals and business culture of their clients. This allowed them to create a design that accurately represented our brand. I've had nothing but positive experiences with 97 Switch and Id recommend them to anyone.

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

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.
