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 (Foote, Cone & Belding) is a globally recognized advertising agency known for its innovative and effective advertising and marketing campaigns. As part of the Interpublic Group, FCB has a substantial global footprint, with over 120 offices across over 80 countries.
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%.

The results were evident in our improved search rankings, increased organic traffic, and well-optimized ad campaigns that drove quality leads and conversions. Their proactive communication and regular updates made the collaboration seamless, as they always provided clear insights and actionable recommendations. What truly set them apart was their commitment to achieving measurable outcomes while maintaining a smooth and collaborative working relationship. PBJ Marketing went above and beyond to not only meet but exceed our expectations. The partnership has had a significant and lasting impact on our business, and we couldnt be more satisfied.
Google Ads Review from Eugene Ravitsky
Ad spend increased dramatically and cost per conversion skyrocketed. They claimed because revenue was increasing that they did their job. We add new brands weekly so revenue was growing before and after them. Cost per conversion/ROAS went into the dumps and we were unprofitable. Yet they still use us as a success case study on their website. Since then google reps took over and overhauled the structure of the campaign, saying it was clunky and wrong.

Working with Bestow for the last three years has been an absolute pleasure. They developed two unique style of websites for my two brands in Canada that perfectly reflect the brand identity, optimized it for SEO, and managed our social media marketing with precision. What stands out the most is their exceptional client support. Honestly, their creative inputs and proactive ideas are ahead of the curve, and I need to keep up myself for their updates. their creative team was always available to answer my questions and made sure I satisfied with every aspect of the project. They don't just deliver what you ask for but perform beyond your expectations. Highly recommend Bestow for their professionalism and expertise.
HR Suncity Club's Review Sourced from Google
We chose to partner with Bestow for our branding initiative, and it proved to be a game-changer. Their proactive approach and aggressive mindset played a key role in helping us achieve our numbers. As one of the premium clubs in Vadodara, positioning the brand while building an emotional connect with our members was a challenging task — and Bestow delivered on both fronts exceptionally well. Their strategic thinking and creative execution truly met our expectations.

USA Down Syndrome Swimming USADSS's Review Sourced from Google
When Glyph Marketing decides to take on a project, they DIVE IN with you until the murky waters clear. There is no question that Nic Von Schneider and his team are passionate about their comprehensive rebranding process. At USA Down Syndrome Swimming, we learned to articulate our dreams for our athletes which led to a concise, achievable vision. Once we had our vision, Glyph held our hand over the finish line with a clean new logo, full of symbolism and pride. Not only that, they created stepping-stones for us create high level social media posts with consistency and ease. Thank you Nic and team for donating your time and resources to support our athletes with Down syndrome. We will be walking tall at the next World Championship!

Working with Glyph has been a complete game changer! I tried to work with Google Ads myself and while I did craft an ad and pay to advertise it on Google, they were not getting results. Working with Glyph we received more phone calls in one month than we did in 1 year of trying to do it ourselves! Highly recommend!! The team gets you thinking as a customer would, instills excitement and truly cares!

They took the time to really understand our goals and it showed in the final product. The booth felt intentional and helped us stand out without being overdone.
Charlie L's Review Sourced from Google
Had a great experience working with Exhibit Experience. Their team was professional, responsive, and detail-oriented from planning through execution. They delivered a visually strong, functional booth that aligned perfectly with my costumer’s brand and helped them stand out at a large, fast-paced event with over 18,000 attendees. Support was spot-on, allowing us to focus on making the most of the show. Marta was super helpful when we’re in a crunch during set up. We even had Jose, the CEO, reach out to us to see if there was anything else the company could do. Truly top notch customer service. Would highly recommend Exhibit Experience for any trade show or event needs.

When we began the digitalization of our distribution company in Zamora, we needed more than just a consulting service. At Merkategia, we found a group of professionals who provided us with personalized attention, insightful ideas, and efficient execution. The sales funnel they developed was seamlessly integrated into a structured plan, which significantly strengthened our internal operations.
Jorge carlos Tun Quen's Review Sourced from Google
We had several challenges at our clinic in Mexico City. We approached Merkategia because we needed help with a customized digital strategy. From the beginning, they understood what we were looking for and offered us concrete ideas. We've noticed clear improvements and are now better at managing more areas of the business that we previously didn't communicate about. Working with them has been practical and helpful.

SoDig is a group of highly skilled and hardworking people that are great to have on your team for video production. They are always a pleasure to work with and to even work for.
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.
