      Digital Marketing Review from Eric Millard

      When assisting us in rebranding our company and redesigning our website, Splendor invested significant time in really getting to understand our business and its nuances, what makes us unique, and what our value proposition is. The results were fantastic – clear and accurate messaging, excellent design, and a foundation. CS Energy’s revenues increased 20% in the year after our rebrand and we have recently been recognized as one of the nation’s top 10 companies in our industry. We attribute much of our recent success, particularly in attracting and retaining new customers, to Splendor’s great work.

      The Walla Design Company provided an exceptional experience for our organization, from beginning to end. Kevin has the ability to not just create a beautiful product, but one that is designed to uniquely represent our values and core beliefs. Everything we saw from Walla was beautifully consistent across the brand, and detailed meticulously to look great on all formats and platforms. To say that our experience was nothing less than stellar would be a gross understatement!

      Branding Review from Shira S

      We partnered with Agency Squid to refine and elevate our brand identity for a SaaS platform in the B2B space. Operating in a competitive landscape, we needed strong positioning, messaging clarity, and a compelling visual presence to stand out. From the very beginning, the Agency Squid team demonstrated a deep understanding of our market, challenges, and goals. They asked the right questions, offered valuable strategic insights, and walked us through a structured branding process that was both collaborative and efficient. The outcome was a refreshed brand strategy that clearly communicates our core value, differentiators, and relevance to our target audience. We received high-impact messaging frameworks and creative assets that are now integrated into our website, sales materials, and marketing campaigns. 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!

      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.

      This is our first year at Peach Bowl, Inc. working with Modo Modo. In fact, we're literally months into our business relationship. I'll be able to provide a more thorough review later, but we have found Modo Modo to be an intensely engaged agency. They have very talented people in the design chairs and the account management team. They've been extremely responsive in terms of learning how we like to work, and reacting accordingly. We made the decision to leave one agency and sign on with Modo Modo, and the best thing I can say at this point is that we are not disappointed in our decision. We've seen and are expecting top-shelf work from them.

      Bob LiVolsi's Review Sourced from Google

      At Vaccine Systems, we were under time pressure to get our website up as entered an incubator and a grant process for our Covid-19 related medical technology. In less than 3 weeks, Dos Mundos Creative stepped up and accomplished that. In our first meetings, they listened to and understood our needs. Not only did they provide a great-looking website, but they also sharpened our messaging and provided a logo for which we have received many compliments. All this accomplished in a matter of weeks! in the 8 months since then, we have had two minor issues of our own making pop up with the website. In both cases, Dos Mundos responded quickly and fixed the issue. We recommend Dos Mundos to anyone looking for a responsive and capable team to provide an up-to-date website with excellent graphics that appeals to the eye and tells your story well.

      I hired DMC right before Covid, and everything we had talked about in regards to design and branding I was ready to throw out the window as my whole world had shifted. I am a musician and I do live events and with Covid, I had NO idea what to do. Kana and her team met with me regularly throughout 2020 helping not just talk about my website (which I hired them to do), but go above and beyond and help me with everything – pivoting, new ideas, how to build on what I have, mental health... I MEAN EVERYTHING). They truly gave me so much life through a very dismal time. I felt inspired and excited for what could come next, even if it might have to wait for 2021. They worked with my budget and created something magical – even better than what I could imagine. I have had some hiccups on my side, and they've been there all along responding very quickly! I truly don't know what I would have done without them. They take my crazy ideas and flow and turn it into something that is very easy to understand. Dos Mundos Creative is more than just a branding, website design/building agency... they are the real deal and the full package and make you feel just as important as a client with a huge budget. I am so grateful I found them and grateful to continue to work with them. They are my GO TO!!! And it's female-founded, so that's also a plus in my book!

      Dos Mundos did an incredible job of taking our brand and media assets and transform them into something that we were finally proud of and that got our message across. They are fast, effective, and intuitive as a team. They were also able to take our guidance and think outside of the box coming up with ways of presenting our ideas that were more succinct and beautiful. Thanks Kana, Parker, and Dos Mundos!

      One of my friend recommended this place to eat out and I love it very much. I have no concern , food is very delicious, the workers are really great, people are diverse, and most of it all the food portion is really great for its price. Let’s just say ever since I tried it for it the first time I became a loyal customer. Sometime they are busy so seating will take a while but it’s worth the wait. When it’s not busy there seating is really fast. Overall the customer service is really great! I think everyone should try this place once in their lifetime!!

      Nauti Beach's Review Sourced from Google

      When we began looking to develop a successful relationship with a branding and design agency, Levie Branding was one of the companies we initially reached out to as their 5 star reviews and social media spoke highly for their work. Our first communication was with Jose. He was informative, creative, structured, available and always patient from the beginning. He walked us through the entire process and explained how important the exercises that we will do together at the beginning will be in order to create a brand identity and voice that will assist in bringing our vision to life. We chose Levie because we loved our detailed conversations, their creativity and vision from the beginning for our brand and each one of their team members brought something so fresh and exciting to the table. Levie has the absolute best eye for design and detail. Levie created our detailed brand book including the brand elements, logo, colors, website, social media templates, packaging, business cards, stationary, brand voice, animations, content creation, rollout campaign, social assets, and so much more. They were prompt, energetic and professional with the highest integrity. Levie delivered a unique brand identity that exceeded all of our expectations. Their entire team went above and beyond throughout the project. We were always impressed and excited by their deliverables, creativity and extraordinary customer service and professionalism. This experience with Levie has been one of the best work experiences that we have had and one of the best decisions that we ever made. Nothing has brought us more excitement than watching our brand come to life and we couldn't have done it without Levie Branding. We look forward to working together again. We will choose Levie every time.

Hiring Guide: How to Choose the Best Creative Marketing Agency in the US

What can creative agencies in the United States do for businesses?

Benefits of Good Design

They help businesses build recognizable brands, differentiate in crowded markets, and convert attention into demand.

At a practical level, top creative marketing firms strengthen brand systems (identity, messaging, design language), develop campaign concepts, and produce assets that are consistent across channels and teams.

While, the best B2B creative agencies help translate complex products into simple, memorable stories, build sales enablement systems, and create repeatable asset libraries that reduce production friction over time.

Ultimately, this translates to higher revenue and business growth.

According to McKinsey’s The Value of Business Design, top-quartile design index performers saw a 32% higher revenue growth and 56% higher total returns to shareholders (TRS) over a five-year period compared to industry counterparts.

Moreover, it observed a 25% uplift in sales for businesses that implement design metrics and user research.

What kind of ROI can I expect from creative services?

The return on investment from creative services depends on factors such as your business objectives, distribution channels, and the maturity of your measurement and attribution processes.

That said, strong creative are often associated with higher performance across industries.

WARC’s ROI Benchmarks show that the median revenue ROI of successful campaigns has increased to approximately 4.25:1, up from 3.86:1 in earlier reporting.

Nielsen’s research further demonstrates how execution quality affects results. In one study, average ROI ranged from $0.25 per dollar spent to $2.60 per dollar spent, depending on targeting accuracy and creative effectiveness.

In practice, the most reliable way to estimate ROI is to clearly define the primary metric you are optimizing, establish a baseline, and outline how the creatives will be tested, refined, and scaled over time.

How long do creative projects usually take?

Timelines depend on stakeholder alignment, approvals, and production complexity, but common ranges are 1-2 weeks for simple digital assets and 4+ months for more complex projects.

Below is an estimated timeline of the top creative firm services:

  • Branding
    • 2-5 weeks for a logo and a basic visual identity refresh
    • 1-3 months for comprehensive branding projects
  • Presentation deck
    • 2-5 days for a basic 10-slide design without animations and custom illustrations
    • 1-2 weeks for a 10-slide design with custom animations and illustrations
  • Layout for a 10-page white paper or report: 1-2 weeks
  • Graphic design
    • 1 week for a custom illustration with 2-3 variations
    • 2-3 days for an infographic without custom illustrations
    • 1 week for an infographic with custom illustration
  • Social media
    • 1-2 weeks for 10-20 static social media assets with pre-approved templates and high-quality product photos
    • 2-6 weeks for 10-20 social media assets that have a mix of static and animated content
  • Web design
    • At least 6 weeks for a full web design
    • ~1 week for a custom landing page design
    • 1-2 weeks for dynamic and animated website banner ads

How do I choose the best US creative agency for my business?

Consider these steps to choose the right partner for your business:

  1. Clarify your needs
    Specify your goals, requirements, performance metrics, budget range, and timeline. Collect references to better describe your vision.
  2. Shortlist candidates
    Research agencies with proven experience in your industry and target market to ensure they understand your specific challenges.
  3. Evaluate expertise
    Review portfolios, case studies, client reviews, awards, and recognitions to verify reliability, delivery, style alignment, and long-term support.
  4. Issue a request for proposal (RFP)
    Send an RFP to your shortlisted candidates and compare pricing models, contracts, and asset ownership to find those that provide the best value for money.
  5. Schedule an interview
    Meet the team working on your project and ask about their approach to your project, process, and workflow.
  6. Choose your partner
    Select a creative agency that aligns with your brand and team dynamics, delivers tangible business outcomes, and has exemplary customer service.

What common mistakes should I avoid when hiring a creative agency?

Avoid these common missteps that lead to misalignment, wasted budget, or weak outcomes:

  • Choosing based on visuals alone: A beautiful portfolio isn’t proof of strategic fit. Ask how the agency measured outcomes and what constraints they solved.
  • Not defining goals or scope upfront: Without a clear objective (pipeline, launch, repositioning), creative becomes subjective, and timelines slip.
  • Hiring without relevant industry/audience experience: If you’re B2B, look for proven expertise in longer cycles and multi-stakeholder messaging, not just consumer campaigns.
  • Ignoring process and communication fit: Mismatched review cadence and unclear ownership are major timeline killers and can increase overall rates.
  • Failing to clarify revisions, ownership, and IP rights: Confirm how many revision rounds are included and what rights you receive (source files, usage, licensing).
  • Skipping reference checks: Client feedback often reveals whether the agency is reliable under real deadlines and shifting stakeholder input.
