CRO Review from Windy Hoang
Cole is an expert! I reached out to InterTeam for some conversion optimization help on a paid ad campaign. Cole figured out the issues from just a glance at my Meta dashboard and was able to fix them within the hour. Aside from that, he also gave helpful advice and tips for improving conversions in multiple aspects. Now, I'm getting much higher quality leads from my campaign. The team at InterTeam gets down to business quickly and delivers well. Highly recommend!
PPC Review from 🌀 Hannah Recker
Cole and team have taken our Google Ads account to the next level. Prior to working with their team, we had found a winning campaign type for our organization but didn't have the bandwidth or in-depth knowledge to scale. Their in-depth knowledge and expertise and their flexibility to adapt with our culture of rapid experimentation.Cole and his team have been easy and flexible to work with and week over week are:- Optimizing our campaigns- Building new test campaigns from start to finish (including more in-depth keyword research, copy creation, and build)- Reporting- Bringing new ideas to the tableIn just 4 months, all of our tofu metrics have improved - CTRs, impressions, impression share, etc, but most importantly have doubled weekly conversions and are just getting started.
PPC Review from Nippun Arora
InterTeam is truly one of the best B2B ad agencies for services and SaaS available today. Working directly with their founder, Cole Furrh, has been a fantastic experience. He consistently delivers on time and exceeds our expectations.Thanks to their efforts, our KPIs have significantly improved within our current budget. We've seen a marked increase in lead quality, as their targeted ads resonate more effectively with our audience. The aesthetic appeal of our landing pages has also enhanced user engagement, and the overall collaboration between our marketing and sales teams has greatly improved.

Janet McGlaughlin's Review Sourced from Google
“Trusting someone with your “baby” is a huge leap of faith for any business owner. However, from the start, my instincts told me this no-nonsense agency would work hard to represent Marmion and our team with integrity and purpose, and go on to create something we could all be truly proud of.Our rebrand was made possible by the exceptional team at HUB. Their ability to capture our vision, values, and ambition was deeply moving (actual tears), and the outcome speaks for itself. Not only was this a big investment, it was personal for me, as it represents a lot of hard work and effort. So it mattered that they got it right, and they did.This was a team effort from Hub (Rob, Helen, Josh, Vicki - to name a few) amazing people with enormous emotional intelligence, and they have all been a joy to work with. They now take care of all our socials and brand development (Hana, Mark and Vicki). All in all we couldn’t have asked for a better partner. Thank you … you just got us from day one, in the same way we got you.😊PS They also managed to get us through a photoshoot, which is pretty impressive. However, we managed to capture them too😜
Matthew Lindon's Review Sourced from Google
My experience working with Hub has been outstanding. Their depth of knowledge and expertise far exceeds that of other marketing companies I've worked with in the past.They are highly responsive, quick to implement practical requirements, and consistently provide insights that help shape key business decisions and direction. This high standard extends across the entire team—each member is supportive, professional, and clearly competent in their field.Would recommend.

COMO built the JAL Strategies website from the ground up, and the result speaks for itself. Colin took the time to understand what we actually do retail real estate investment focused on neighborhood shopping centers and translated that into a site that reads as credible to investors, lenders, and brokers alike. The process was collaborative and efficient, and Colin was responsive throughout without needing to be chased. For anyone launching a platform and needing their brand to look institutional from day one, I'd recommend COMO without hesitation.
Marketing Strategy Review from Jenny Drago
We've had an incredible experience working with Como Creatives. Their team is truly best-in-class. They've taken the time to understand who we are as a company and have helped us tell our story in a way that feels authentic and true to who we are. Colin has been incredible to work with. He's trustworthy, diligent, and one of the hardest-working people I've come across in the industry. He genuinely cares about getting it right and brings a unique creative perspective that has helped us better communicate who we are as a brand. He's challenged us in all the right ways, asked thoughtful questions, and helped us find a voice that feels authentic and resonates with the people we're trying to reach. This team not only creates great work, but they invest in understanding your business, your values, and what makes you different. That level of care shows in everything they do, and it's what sets them apart. We're incredibly grateful for everything Como Creatives has done for us, and we're excited to keep building together. If you're looking for a creative partner that's talented, intentional, and genuinely invested in your success, I can't recommend them highly enough!

SEO Review from Andrew Hardgrove
Our company worked with Harris & Ward for many years before we decided to explore being acquired by a national fire protection company. Harris & Ward played an important role in helping us maximize the value of our business by positioning us as the go-to provider for our services in the local market. Our financials reflected that growth, but so did our presence on Google. We were even outranking the company looking to acquire us in our own market, which really impressed them during the acquisition process. I have nothing but positive things to say about the Harris & Ward team. They truly understand their industry, and the results they helped us achieve had a real impact on the value and visibility of our business. I would highly recommend them.

Denis designed the landing page for my brand, and did a fantastic job. He understood what I wanted right away and turned a rough brief into a page that looks premium and actually converts. Everything on my site flows exactly the way I hoped - clear structure, clean typography, and every section pulling its weight. No filler, no wasted space. His communication was excellent throughout. He kept me updated, delivered on time, and was always open to my feedback, often suggesting smarter options than what Id asked for. Great value and a smooth process from start to finish. I'd gladly work with Denis again and recommend him to anyone who needs a landing page thats both beautiful and built to convert.

AI Consulting Review from Rubesh Jacobs
iThink Digital handles our AI consulting support, website management, and email marketing, and honestly the reason it works is that they got our world quickly. We advise asset and wealth management firms on go-to-market strategy, so our own marketing has to hold to the standard we set for clients, and they never treated that as a nice-to-have. On AI they pushed us to think about where it genuinely fits into how we already work instead of selling us tools we did not need, which is exactly the argument we make to our own clients. The website stays maintained and keeps getting better without me having to chase anyone, and the monthly newsletter runs end to end on their side, from the thinking through to the send. They show up every week, deliver when they say they will, and write for an institutional audience that has no patience for fluff. At this point they feel less like an agency we hired and more like part of the team.
Marketing Strategy Review from Jessica Hass
Working with iThink Digital has been an outstanding experience. They took ownership of our branding, website, SEO, social media, and overall marketing strategy, making the entire process seamless.

Steve Drury of Web-aviso made getting my books published and promoted a breeze. He did everything allowing me to just worry about writing it! He then used his own network to promote it internationally. I would not have written the two books he has handled for me without his help and expertise!Thanks to his work, my books are handsome, hardcover books (he even designed the attractive cover art for me) with very exquisite, appropriate artwork scattered throughout!All this with no money from me, just a very fair percentage of sales income for his efforts!
Anthony Hawkins's Review Sourced from Google
I required a personalised book designed and printed in a short time frame, and Steve was recommended to me. I have no technical expertise in this field and at all stages of the design proofing and printing my hand was held by Steve, via supporting and informative emails. His consummate experience and patience made me extremely comfortable with a new experience and the result exceeded my expectations. I cannot recommend his services highly enough and unreservedly give him a FIVE STAR recommendation.

Vontavius provides great Consultative services and review of any technical and social media gaps in your business. He is very knowledgeable and patient. I highly recommend his services.
Orson Steward's Review Sourced from Google
I contracted with Vontavius Tech Support to help me increase the visibility of my website, particularly to individuals seeking an African American/black Realtor. This was not accomplished and during my exit interview I was made aware by Vontavius that he knew this could not be accomplished from the onset but never disclosed this at any point prior to the exit interview.I paid a significant amount of money to Vontavius Tech support and ultimately found out that there was very little being done by them routinely in return for that significant investment. Essentially, Vontavius Tech support was managing my Google Workspace for my website and doing a poor job of it.He failed to respond to several of my customers' reviews and undoubtedly he will say that it was because I asked him not to do that at a certain point. That is partially correct but I actually told him not to respond to any more reviews without FIRST seeking my input on content to the response since it is purported as coming from me. There were several reviews after that request that he never responded to nor sought my input for content for a potential response.He loaded incorrect listings on my platform as belonging to me personally when none of them did; he prematurely drafted my account for my monthly service charge and never returned the money nor made me aware of it and only admitted it when I questioned him about it.But the most egregious offense in my opinion was him informing me that my website was not loading properly during my exit interview as opposed to the point that he became aware of it so I could have addressed the matter promptly.I asked him why he did not tell me sooner and he said because he was not paid to do that. I asked him point blank, "So you're saying that through the course of doing the work you have been contracted to do that if you discover something else wrong you won't tell your customer because you have not been paid to do that?" He paused and then replied "No". I was flabbergasted.Bottom line...Spend your money on an island getaway, a new car down payment, or a bridge to nowhere as all options would be money better spent than with Vontavius Tech Support.

Vontavius Tech Support is an Asset to my Business.His staff listened to my needs and helped guide me through the process of building out my website design.

L’unicità della differenza come vantaggio competitivo e strategico. Un rischio da correre e che Bake Agency corre molto volentieri nonostante i tempi tecnicamente riproducibili spesso anche in termini di soluzioni da offrire. Risposte uniche e irriproducibili come il valore, quello dei propri clienti, da tradurre in esperienze di comunicazione che fanno la differenza. Una strategia d’ascolto che si fa marketing nel re-design di una nuova consapevolezza del proprio essere sul mercato come brand responsabile della propria immagine. La capacità di riuscire affidata ad un team di professionalità affiatate e capaci di ottenere il massimo dalla propria integrazione. Tecnicamente e creativamente.
Vito Inserrato's Review Sourced from Google
When we first met Bake, we were quite wary. We thought that, after all, for 15 years we'd been doing it ourselves and had always found the ideas and skills to communicate with our clients and associates internally.Then, almost against our will, they created a new logo and a coordinated graphic design for all our publications, presentations, images, reels, and anything else we could think of.It took us no more than ten minutes to decide to adopt the new logo, despite our affection for the old one.Furthermore, without ever lecturing us, they began to explain and make us understand the effectiveness of intelligent communication through media and the web and how easy it is to throw money away without achieving results.They expertly follow us on social media and constantly monitor our results. They're always ready to create new graphics or develop new ideas. I must confess that sometimes I'm a little afraid to share even a half-baked idea, because the next day Daniele or Massimiliano send me proposals for how to implement it.To close with a metaphor, I must admit that communicating with Bake Agency's expertise today allows us to effectively reach and communicate with our potential clients, making the most of the available media. By comparison, our previous work was a bit like leaning out the window and shouting into a megaphone.A heartfelt thank you also for your patience in explaining and sometimes re-explaining what we don't understand.

Ask yourself: Can I finish this sentence, "We need to [specific outcome] by [timeframe] because [consequence of not doing it]", without describing an activity like "build a strategy" or "improve our digital presence"?
If you can't answer that question, no digital strategy agency can help you yet.
Agencies are skilled at filling vague briefs with visible work.
If you walk in asking for "a digital strategy," you'll get a document, not a result.
The most common root cause of failed agency engagements isn't a capability gap on the agency's side.
It's a client who didn't define a measurable expectation before signing.
The agency becomes a cost center the moment the brief stays vague.
The BetterBriefs Project global study, published by the IPA and based on responses from over 1,700 marketers and agency staff across 70 countries, found that 80% of marketers believe they write good briefs, while only 10% of creative agencies agree.
The same study found that respondents estimated 33% of marketing budgets are wasted on poor briefs and misdirected work.
Meanwhile, the ANA's "Enhancing Client/Agency Relations" survey found that just 27% of agencies believe clients provide clear assignment briefs, and not a single agency respondent strongly agreed.
Write your one-sentence outcome and pressure-test it with your CFO or a board member before briefing digital strategy agencies.
If neither of them can connect it to a line on a P&L, rewrite it.
Shortlisting by industry vertical is one of the most common and most costly mistakes in hiring digital strategy companies.
An agency that has produced results for three eCommerce brands has not necessarily solved a B2B lead generation problem.
An agency that grew a DTC brand's organic traffic hasn't necessarily navigated the compliance constraints of a financial services company.
When reviewing agency profiles and case studies, filter for problem match, not sector match.
The question isn't "have they worked in my industry?" It's "have they solved the specific problem I have, in a comparable context, with measurable results?"
Despite this, 89% of companies say "experience in our industry" is a major factor when selecting an outsourcing provider, according to a 2024 survey of business leaders compiled by Passive Secrets, making industry match the most common shortlisting criterion, and problem match the most overlooked one.
How to shortlist effectively:
What to look for in case studies:
Red flags at this stage:
Digital strategy agencies should write down what a successful 90-day outcome looks like from their side.
Without a shared, written definition of early success, both sides spend the first quarter doing work they believe is valuable while the other side is quietly keeping score on different metrics.
By month four, the client is frustrated by the absence of visible results, and the agency is frustrated that the client doesn't appreciate the foundational work they've completed.
This pattern is common enough to have a name in the consulting industry: the expectation gap.
The financial consequences of getting this wrong are significant.
According to the ANA and 4As joint study, The Cost of the Pitch, based on 300+ interviews with U.S. brand marketers and agency executives, the average cost of an agency review when no incumbent is involved is $408,500. That’s the cost for the client alone, before accounting for the digital strategy company’s own pitch costs.
When expectations break down and a review becomes necessary, that is the price of a poorly aligned start.
The 30-day milestone should cover access, audit, and alignment.
The 90-day milestone should include at least one deliverable that tests the quality of the agency's strategic thinking before you're locked into a full year.
What to do: Send the agency your written version of the 90-day success before the kickoff call. Ask them to do the same. Where they diverge is where the relationship will break first.
The person who presents to you and the person who runs your account on a daily basis are often not the same.
This gap between the seniority of the pitch team and the seniority of the delivery team is one of the most predictable sources of post-signature disappointment in agency relationships.
Before signing, identify who will be doing the actual work on your account. Ask to meet them.
Ask digital strategy firms what percentage of their time will be dedicated to your engagement. Then assess whether that person has the experience level the engagement actually requires.
Your relative budget matters here. An agency billing $6M annually will prioritize a $150K retainer differently from one billing $900K annually.
The smaller agency may be the higher-priority client, which means more senior attention, faster response, and more accountable work.
The table below shows how staffing typically plays out by agency size, and what it means for how you'll be treated.
| Agency size | Who pitches | Who delivers | Your likely priority |
| Boutique (under 15 people) | Founder or principal | Often the same person | High, but capacity is finite |
| Mid-size (15-75 people) | Senior partner | Account director + specialist | Moderate, senior input is scheduled |
| Large (75+ people) | Business development director | Rotating account team | Depends on your budget's rank in their portfolio |
Most buyers evaluate digital strategy agencies on what they'll do when things go well.
Fewer think through what will happen when things don't go well, which, in any honest engagement, they sometimes won't.
The way an agency handles underperformance tells you more about the health of the relationship than any pitch or proposal.
Top digital strategy agencies identify problems before the client does. They come with a diagnosis and propose a course correction.
An agency that waits for the client to notice and then explains why the results weren't their fault is an agency that will cost you more than the retainer.
The data supports taking this seriously upfront. The SPI Professional Services Maturity Benchmark, a survey of thousands of professional services organizations, cited by Workday's 2025 industry analysis, found that on-time project delivery rates dropped to just 73.4% in 2024, down from 80.2% in 2021.
The same research found that project overruns rose to 11.3% over the same period.
In agency engagements specifically, a Deltek benchmark study found that nearly 40% of agenciesexceedprojectbudgets due to scope creep from poorly defined contract terms.
These aren't edge cases. They're the statistical norm, and they almost always go unaddressed until the client notices the invoice.
Before you sign, understand the digital strategy firm’s process for flagging underperformance: how often they review results against baseline, what triggers an internal review, and how they communicate bad news.

Agencies can also reach out to DesignRush and must go through the verification process prior to being listed.
Ask in the first meeting who will be on your account after the contract is signed. The most consistent structural flaw in agency sales models is pitch-and-switch staffing: senior operators close the deal, junior operators execute the engagement. The senior judgment that persuaded you to sign is often not what you're buying for the next 12 months.
To protect against this, require that the Statement of Work name the specific individuals responsible for your account, along with their seniority level and the number of other accounts they carry simultaneously. Many digital strategy agencies overload account managers with 30 to 50 clients each. At that volume, no individual client gets meaningful strategic attention, and monthly "strategy calls" become status updates where someone reads your own analytics back to you.
The clearest red flag is a digital strategy firm that arrives at the first meeting with a proposal already written.
A serious digital strategy partner asks about your margins, customer acquisition costs, competitive positioning, and internal constraints before it proposes anything. Additional red flags that signal execution-only thinking include:
Agencies that cannot explain their week-by-week decision-making process either don't have one or don't want you examining it.
The three most common post-signature cost surprises in digital strategy engagements are: change orders for work outside the initial scope, consulting hours billed separately from retainer fees, and technology or platform costs that the digital strategy agency treats as pass-through charges.
A $10,000 project can easily grow to $13,000-$15,000, and a six-week timeline may stretch to twelve weeks. All that can lead to financial overruns, reduced quality, and team burnout. Before signing, request a complete list of every line item not covered by the retainer, including: additional revision rounds beyond those specified, stakeholder workshops, tool subscriptions, third-party data licenses, and any work triggered by internal changes on your side (a rebrand, a product launch, a new market entry).
A well-run agency will provide this list without hesitation. One that deflects is signaling a billing model that depends on scope expansion to improve its own margins.
A credible digital strategy agency engagement in 2025 runs $3,000 to $25,000 per month on retainer, or $5,000 to $150,000+ for a defined project. According to a pricing study drawing on data from 1,200+ agencies, monthly retainer costs span $3,000 to $25,000, with median spending at $7,500 for mid-market companies.
Hourly consulting rates range from $100 to $350 per hour, with senior strategists commanding rates above $250.
On the global side, the 2025 Global Digital Marketing Report by DesignRush puts the worldwide average agency rate at $97 per hour, with U.S.-based agencies averaging $124 per hour.
Yes, a 12-month lock-in with no performance milestone clauses is a structural risk, not a standard industry practice. Long contracts without exit provisions protect the digital strategy firm’s revenue, not your outcomes. A confident agency with a proven process should be willing to build in milestone-based reviews, typically at 90 days and 6 months. There, both parties assess whether the engagement is generating the agreed-upon indicators of progress.
At a minimum, any long-term contract should specify: what deliverables are due at each quarter, what performance benchmarks trigger a strategy review, and what the exit mechanism is if those benchmarks are not met.
Ask the shortlisted digital strategy agencies to show you two proposals from different clients in different industries and explain the strategic differences between them. Agencies with a genuine strategy capability will have fundamentally different recommendations for a D2C consumer brand versus a B2B SaaS company. They’ll offer a different channel mix, different measurement frameworks, and different competitive positioning approaches
Agencies that apply templated thinking will show cosmetic differences: the same services with different company names on the header. A generic proposal signals generic execution. The right strategy depends on your stage, competitive landscape, and ideal customer profile. During evaluation, also listen for how quickly the digital strategy company moves to tactics. Legitimate strategists spend the first conversation asking questions; agencies selling repackaged work move quickly to talking about what they do.
Walk away immediately if the agency makes performance guarantees, refuses to name your day-to-day account team, or cannot explain how it measures strategic success independent of vanity metrics.
These three signals do not indicate inexperience, but a business model designed to obscure accountability. Digital strategy firms that make guarantees like "first page rankings in 30 days" or "500% ROI for everyone" either don’t understand how digital marketing works or are overstating certainty to close the deal.
Separately, if an agency's reporting vocabulary consists exclusively of reach, impressions, and engagement rate with no connection to revenue, pipeline, or customer acquisition cost, the strategy layer is missing, regardless of how sophisticated the pitch sounded. If a digital strategy firm avoids sharing analytics dashboards, performance reports, or access to your own ad accounts, that's a serious warning sign. A successful digital strategy relies on data-driven decisions, and access to those numbers is how you verify you're on the right track.
