eCommerce Review from Pooja Bansal
When I managed the account, my December ROAS was 0.93. From Jan 1-Feb 5, after they took over, ROAS dropped to 0.50. During that time, they charged $2,000 in fees and spent $3,869.89 of my ad budget, with no meaningful execution or improvement.After I took back control on Feb 6, ROAS increased to 1.32. Their creatives and strategy did not deliver value. I requested a full refund of the $2,000 management fee for Jan 1-Feb 5, but they denied it. Overall, this engagement cost me about $6,000 with poor results.

Where to begin... prior to the shoot the team where so amazing and helpful. We spoke for weeks and they answered every question. David and Steven were always on top of their game and made us feel even more confident in booking them. They set up everything for our brand. They even coloured a big wall in our theme colour. Mel done a great job with organising the breif. When I arrived the morning of the shoot Ryan and Karen were already working on our products. We had a 3 day shoot and each day worked wonderfully.

Angie Alexandra's Review Sourced from Google
I've been delighted with the attractive web and logo designs and their knowledge of SEO. Whenever I've had a question, I've always received a thorough no jargon answer and I'm delighted with how many enquiries come from the sites. I appreciate their honesty, kindness, and dedication to ensuring I'm a satisfied client.I first hired Indigoextra more than ten years ago to create a website offering my services as an interfaith wedding celebrant. Over the years Indigoextra have created two further fabulous websites for me, as well as upgrading my initial site to make it mobile friendly. They have also completed an SEO campaign for the group website scottishweddingceremony.co.uk for which me and my colleagues now rank on the first page of Google for 'Scottish Wedding', which we are all delighted with.The first website, gettingmarriedinscotland.org included a logo design, Drupal web design and SEO. Since then, they have upgraded the site and created Scottish Wedding Ceremony which now provides details of 20 different interfaith ministers in Scotland.They created an interface where ministers can login and add their own content and photos, helped write content for ministers following an online chat with them where this was required and optimised the site for several keywords. They also created a dedicated same sex LGBTQIA+ wedding website site for me echoing the design of the first wedding website.Both GettingmarriedinScotland and Scottishweddingceremony websites now rank on the first page for a range of target keywords and form my main source of enquiries. The ministers featured on Scottish Wedding Ceremony nearly always renew, which indicates they are also happy with both the service and the number of enquiries they receive.
Francesca Haack's Review Sourced from Google
Martin and the team at Indigoextra have been amazing. After working with multiple SEO agencies over the past 20 years, I can confidently say they are the most friendly, knowledgeable, helpful (and amazingly also least expensive!) of all the agencies we've tried. Our rankings have increased steadily since we started with them, and Martin checks the website every month for anything we should improve on-page. Absolutely recommend!
Alison Hosking's Review Sourced from Google
Indigoextra listened to my ideas and needs and designed a logo, website navigation/functionality to suit my various areas of my business. They helped me with content to include targeted keywords based on their research for what my potential customers would have searched for. They built links and manage the SEO for my site.I have a website that ranks first on the first page of Google for all four areas of my business in my town and county. WellBeingOne has grown from a fledging venture at the first date that the website went live to a succsesful business. My Chi Kung classes are full and my health therapy clinic has a constant stream of new clients discovering me from the website.They have continued to respond rapidly to any changes or additions that have become necessary with design, CMS and SEO. New therapy areas that I have trained in over the years have been built into the website and have quickly ranked highly on the first page and today rank first on the first page.I am able to relax and get on with the practical delivery of my business knowing that they will take care of the marketing. They are also extremely approachable and able to explain in clear non jargon how the website and SEO work.

Chelsea at The Sole Circle is a branding genius! As the owner of Prevail Boutique, I approached her to help reinvigorate my brand, and she is exceeding all expectations.I came to Chelsea with a vague idea of what I wanted, but I lacked the confidence to execute it alone. She took my concept and transformed it into something truly inspiring. Chelsea has an exceptional ability to understand a brand's essence and elevate it to new heights.What impressed me most was how Chelsea infused my personality into the brand. She encouraged me to merge my personal and business personas, creating an authentic and relatable image for Stacked by Prevail. This approach has already begun to curate a genuine community around my brand.Chelsea's work went beyond just visual design. She:- Transformed our aesthetic from dainty to edgy while maintaining our commitment to sustainability- Balanced minimalism with maximalist fashion, perfectly capturing our unique style- Seamlessly blended high fashion with vintage curation- Prepared all printed materials for our launch partyThe Sole Circle doesn't just rebrand; they reimagine. Chelsea's professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail make her the go-to choice for anyone looking to revitalize their brand. If you're ready to take your business to the next level, look no further than The Sole Circle.

However this guide has helped me organize myself and put more effort and time into my brand. I wish I had this sooner and I am super thankful for Chelsea she is so sweet and has reached out to me as well. I highly recommend The Sole Circle for branding help or services!!

Creative companies can help your business enhance brand recognition and trust by producing scalable assets for various media and platforms while maintaining a consistent brand identity.
Notably, they can strengthen audience relationships by combining strategy, design, and messaging to produce authentic, memorable, and persuasive content.
In return, this can translate into measurable value for your business.
According to The Multiplier Effect, campaigns with stronger creative quality markers tended to generate higher revenue ROI and profit returns than lower-quality work.
It also argues that integrating brand-building with performance marketing can lift ROI from 25% to 100%, with a median uplift of 90%.
The McKinsey study on the Business Value of Design reached a similar conclusion.
The study reports that businesses with high design index scores grew revenues and shareholder returns at nearly twice the rate of their industry peers over five years.
When choosing the best creative agency for your business, consider the following:
A creative brief should give your firm enough context to understand your business, audience, goals, and project requirements. The more specific the brief, the easier it is for stakeholders to align and for the agency to deliver work that meets your expectations. Here is what you should include:
| Item | What it is | Examples |
| Business background | A short overview of your company, product, service, and market context. Include your value proposition, tone, and style guide. |
|
| Project objective | The problem you want to solve or the result you want to achieve |
|
| Goals and key performance indicators (KPIs) | The specific outcomes you want to measure |
|
| Target audiences | The audience you want to reach, including relevant demographics, behaviors, and preferences |
|
| Deliverables | The exact assets you need, including size, format, and quantity |
|
| Timeline | The important milestones and final deadline |
|
| Budget | The total amount allocated for the project |
|
| Distribution channels | Where the assets will be published or used |
|
| Mandatory requirements | Any required legal, technical, or branding elements |
|
Ask these questions before hiring a creative company to ensure it can execute the campaigns you need:
Creative effectiveness is measured by how well an asset achieves its intended goal, from capturing attention to generating conversions and improving brand recall. The right metrics depend on the format, channel, and campaign objective.
For example, a static social post may be measured by reach, shares, saves, and clicks, while a short-form video may also be evaluated using hook rate, hold rate, watch time, and completion rate.
Here are common performance metrics to track:
A Nielsen and NCS analysis of nearly 500 CPG campaigns found that creative accounted for 47% of sales contribution by advertising element, suggesting that creative quality is often one of the biggest drivers of overall campaign performance.
Rated 4.8 on Google and 4.7 on Trustpilot, DesignRush Agency Directory is a reliable resource for finding creative 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.

Creative agencies offer services that help define how brands are perceived in the market. Core creative services include:
Other creative services include photography, print production, experiential design, app design, and ongoing creative retainers. The exact scope depends on whether the creative firm specializes in branding, content, digital marketing, or full-service creative support.
A creative company centers on how a brand looks, sounds, and feels through brand identity, messaging, design, storytelling, and creative production.
On the other hand, a marketing agency focuses on how a brand reaches its audience through campaigns, channels, and performance optimization. Here is a side-by-side comparison for clarity:
| Creative Companies | Marketing Agencies | |
| Focus | Building brand identity, consistency, and audience connection | Driving awareness, traffic, leads, conversions, and revenue |
| Services | Brand strategy, visual identity, graphic design, video production, website design, copy and creative development | SEO, paid media, email marketing, social media management, influencer marketing, public relations, content marketing, analytics |
| Output | Logos, brand systems, creative concepts, websites, videos, and campaign assets | Media plans, campaign execution, lead generation, reporting, and channel performance insights |
While they are distinct disciplines, they often overlap. Many creative companies offer marketing support, and many marketing agencies include creative services as part of their packages.
Creative firms charge between $100-$200 per hour or $800-$8,000 per project. The final cost will depend on service type and scope, design complexity, turnaround time, and firm location.
Estimated price range by engagement model:
Approximate costs per creative service type:
Creative projects can take anywhere between 1 week and over 4 months. The actual timeline depends on the service type, production complexity, and revision cycle. Here is what to expect:
The answer depends on your goals, budget, timeline, and internal capabilities.
