Lucy Saint-Antonin Director of Communications & Marketing at TLScontact
5.0★
Digital Marketing Review from Lucy Saint-Antonin
I really enjoyed working with the Codedesign team. They have a very methodical approach, first analysing and understanding business needs and then proposing the most appropriate strategy to meet those needs. They were very responsive throughout the digital project that we worked on with them, and demonstrated strong expertise on topics such as Google and Meta ads, and SEO strategy, helping us to increase traffic and conversions. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for any project requiring digital marketing expertise.

Digital Marketing Review from Rita Corrêa Mendes
I chose to work with Code Design on the launch of Grupo Hug because I believe they possess essential characteristics that are extremely important to me in a digital agency: team qualitification, digital expertise, credibility, client results orientation, a holistic digital approach always with an interest in going beyond a simple objectives briefing. They are very responsive and collaborative, and we have a fluid and transparent communication. They are available, always seeking to meet our needs reactively but also proactively.

Outright helped us design and develop the Systems Change Lab data platform. They worked with us every step of the way to come up with innovative and intuitive designs that worked well for us in our development process and for our users in understanding our data and research. They had quick turn arounds and really helped us get to a product that we still get compliments on the design of today. Outright was fabulous to work with and I'd absolutely recommend them for your next design project!

Video Production Review from Idel Mena
They were an incredible partner from start to finish. They led the full creative direction and production for our campaign featuring Michael Douglas, delivering a video that not only looked amazing but performed exceptionally well, earning over 6 million views on YouTube and significantly more across paid channels.What stood out most was their ability to translate our mission into content that resonated across the political spectrum, engaging both conservative and liberal audiences. They brought strong creative and strategic thinking to the table, not just execution.The team was highly responsive, organized, and easy to work with throughout the entire process, and they handled high-profile talent seamlessly. Across multiple campaigns, including local initiatives, they consistently delivered high-quality work and exceeded expectations.We fully trust them as a partner and would absolutely work with them again.
Elyssa Katz Senior Director, Marketing and Communication at National Alliance for Care at Home
5.0★
Branding Review from Elyssa Katz
The Outright team is an absolute joy to work with! They took us from a kernel of a brand identity to a fully realized brand, merging two organizations, cultures, and constituencies into one under significant time constraints. Since we began working with Outright in August of 2024, we have developed and launched our core brand and related assets as well as three event brands, three sub brands, and a variety of practical digital and print assets. Not only is Outright's creative consistently excellent, but they are also a practical partner able to work with agility as an extension of your team. Our experience was so positive in initial brand development work that we've continued to work together for over 18 months and have signed them as a partner for separate digital campaign projects where they again delivered results that accomplished our internal team goals and exceeded the expectations of our external stakeholders. I would recommend Outright to anyone looking for a true creative thought partner.

Holt Group Inc.'s Review Sourced from Google
Watson has been a key strategic partner for us on the creative and brand side since the beginning. We've worked with various members across the team and every member of their staff brings excellence and authentic passion to what they do. They have consistently delivered an end product that excites our customers, adding special creative touches along the way so that the results really sing. The way they're able to translate our vision and mission into deliverables across each project has been a weight off our shoulders. Not every creative agency is able to understand the nuances of our industry and we've been so impressed with the time team Watson has taken to really get to know our industry in homebuilding. We've worked with Watson on deliverables such as high level creative direction, but also getting into the nitty gritty of developing content around our warranty program. This was a huge task and they matched us with exactly the right team members to bring it to life who truly cared about getting it right. They're great friends as much as they are our business partners. We highly recommend partnering with Watson Creative.
S Nash Review from Google

S Nash's Review Sourced from Google
When we engaged Watson to help us rebrand, we knew it was going to be a challenging process. We had a long-standing reputation as a respected law firm in Portland, but we wanted our brand to reflect our unique culture and the innovative approach we bring to our clients. Watson's team was thorough and thoughtful throughout the entire process, from primary research interviews with our team to the final custom, hand-drawn identity system. The end result was a brand that not only represents who we are as a firm but also sets us apart from our competitors. We continue to receive compliments on our branding years later, and we credit Watson for helping us achieve that success.

She provided insightful feedback, helping me to strengthen my presentation and connect with the audience on a deeper level. Her attention to detail and dedication to my success were truly remarkable.Thanks to Karolyn's support and the resources provided by Winger Marketing, I felt confident and prepared when stepping onto the TED stage. The experience was truly transformative, and I owe a great deal of that success to Karolyn!I wholeheartedly recommend Winger Marketing to anyone seeking professional coaching and support for their public speaking endeavors.

ICG-ADV took the time to deeply understand not just my organization's work, but the heart of our mission.

Whitney Anderson Review from Google

Whitney Anderson's Review Sourced from Google
Working with ICG has been one of the most meaningful experiences in our nonprofit organization’s ten-year history.We came to them in desperate need of a brand refresh. Our work is deeply complex and nuanced, and for years we had struggled to communicate it in a way that people could fully understand. Because we are so immersed in the work every day, we couldn’t quite find the words to name what we do in a clear and compelling way. ICG did.From the very beginning, their team was professional, thoughtful, and deeply curious. They took the time to truly learn about our work, and in what can be a very vulnerable process, they created a space where we felt safe, seen, and understood. They also brought so much joy into the process—we laughed a lot, which made something that could have felt heavy or cumbersome instead feel energizing and human.What they created for us is hard to put into words. They brought life, voice, and light to our brand in a way we had never experienced before. They named what we had been trying to name for ten years but couldn’t. When they revealed the brand, I was overwhelmed with tears of joy and gratitude. It felt like they had captured the heart of who we are and reflected it back to us with clarity and beauty.We are continuing to partner with them on our website and video, and I am so grateful for their ongoing investment in our work.This experience has given me so much hope, encouragement, and excitement for what’s ahead. Working with ICG has truly felt like a gift.I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for a team that not only delivers exceptional creative work, but does so with heart, intention, and deep care.

The Impact Media team was super accommodating to us! They even personally helped us switch out paper backdrops and offered us crafty. The studio space was well kept and organized, perfect for the interviews we needed to shoot. I highly recommend working with them!

Studio Rental: We recently rented Impact Media’s studio space for some client interviews. It was a great space! They had it prepped for us on arrival. They have a great conference/green room right next door so the talent could be comfortable while we set up. Even though it was not the largest space it’s organized and efficient set up and we were able to fit a two camera interview against a solid backdrop.Overall the Impact team was hospitable and constantly checked in if we needed anything. We will be renting this space again in the future!

We hired News Coverage Agency to sharpen our local SEO, run targeted digital‑marketing ads, and get PR coverage for our new product launch. In just a month our Google Business profile jumped from page 3 to the local‑pack, organic traffic grew 75 %, and their PR team secured us mentions in Outlook India and Moneycontrol. The process was smooth, reports were crystal‑clear, and the team stayed a step ahead with ideas that actually converted. Couldn’t ask for a better partner—highly recommend!

7 Frequently Asked Questions About Media Buying Agencies
Which platforms do media buying companies manage?
Media buying firms manage major advertising platforms where your audience spends time, both online and offline. They handle campaigns across multiple channels to reach people at different stages of the buying journey and to improve overall results.
Paid search and social Agencies run ads on platforms like Google, Bing, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and TikTok. These channels drive targeted traffic, leads, and sales based on user intent and behavior.
Programmatic and display They use demand-side platforms to buy ad space automatically across websites and apps. This includes banner, video, and native ads, all optimized in real time.
CTV and OTT (Streaming ads) A media buying firm places ads on streaming services and smart TVs to help brands reach audiences who no longer watch traditional cable.
Traditional media They still buy ad space on TV, radio, print, and billboards when it makes sense for reach and brand awareness.
Audio and Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) Ads on Spotify, podcasts, and digital billboards in public spaces like malls, highways, and transit stations.
What is the difference between media planning and media buying agencies?
Media planning agencies decide where, when, and how to advertise. Media buying firms execute that plan by purchasing ad space and managing placements.
Planning sets the strategy; buying delivers the ads.

How do media buyers choose the right channels for a campaign?
Media buyers choose channels by matching audience behavior, campaign goals, and budget to the platforms most likely to deliver results. They rely on data to see where people spend time and shift spend toward what performs best.
Business size
How agencies choose advertising channels
Typical channels
Small business
Focus on low-cost, high-return channels with quick feedback. Prioritize direct response and easy tracking.
Google Ads (search), Facebook/Instagram, TikTok
Mid-size business
Balance growth and efficiency. Test multiple channels and scale what works. Combine awareness and conversions.
Paid social, Google Ads, YouTube, programmatic display
Large business
Maximize reach and brand impact while maintaining performance. Use a full-funnel strategy across many channels.
Core logic stays the same at every level: reach the right audience, support the campaign goal, and invest where return is strongest.
How much do media buying companies' services cost?
Media buying firms usually charge a percentage of your ad spend, typically between 3% and 10%, or a flat monthly fee depending on campaign size. Smaller budgets pay higher percentages, while large budgets get lower rates.
Typical pricing models:
Percentage of ad spend: 5% to 10% for most campaigns
Flat monthly fee: $2,000 to $15,000+, depending on scope
Project-based (strategy/planning): $1,500 to $50,000+
Setup fees: 2% to 3% of initial spend (one-time)
How pricing scales:
Ad spend
Typical fee
$10,000-$100,000
8%-10%
$100,000-$1M
5%-8%
$1M-$10M
3.5%-5%
$10M+
3%-4%
Costs depend on your ad budget, the number of channels, campaign complexity, targeting depth, creative needs, and the amount of ongoing management and reporting required.
You are not just paying for ad placement. You're paying for strategy, execution, optimization, and performance improvement.
Is there a minimum spend?
There is no strict minimum spend, but in practice, you need at least $1,000 to $3,000 per month to generate enough data for optimization and results. Very small budgets, like $5 per day, rarely perform because they don’t generate enough clicks or conversions.
For better performance, campaigns should aim for at least 30 conversions per month, which often requires higher spend depending on your cost per click.
More advanced channels like programmatic or CTV usually require $5,000 to $10,000+ to run effectively, and many agencies set similar minimums to ensure campaigns are worth managing.
How long does it take to see results from media buying?
You can see initial results in2 to 4 weeks, but most campaigns need 2 to 3 months to stabilize and deliver consistent ROI.
Early signals like impressions, clicks, and some leads often appear within days to a few weeks, especially on paid social and search. However, platforms need time to learn and optimize, so stronger and more reliable results usually take8 to 12 weeks.
For more complex campaigns, such as B2B or high-ticket offers, meaningful revenue impact can take 3 to 6 months due to longer sales cycles and ongoing optimization.
What industries benefit from media buying services?
Media buying services deliver the most value to industries that depend on steady customer acquisition, strong competition, and precise targeting.
Those industries include:
eCommerce and retail: Drive online sales with targeted ads and retargeting
Real estate and construction: Promote listings and reach qualified buyers
Healthcare and wellness: Attract new patients with compliant, targeted campaigns
Technology and SaaS: Reach decision-makers in competitive markets
Hospitality and tourism: Capture demand with seasonal and location-based ads
Financial services and insurance: Generate leads and build trust through education
Automotive and local services: Drive inquiries and bookings through search and local ads
