What to Look for In a Digital Agency

Today, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is extremely important for a business to have a strong digital presence.

The world’s economy is shifting digitally at an accelerated rate, putting pressure on businesses in emerging markets to invest in digital marketing.

But because the shift to digital has been so rapid, many companies do not have staff on hand who can manage the necessary digital marketing activities needed to be successful. As a result, it is very common for a business to hire a digital agency to handle and manage its digital marketing.

Digital agencies are a good bang for your buck because they can do the job of three or four staff for a much lower cost than hiring for the job. Working with a digital agency makes it easy to streamline your marketing and make sure everything is high quality and in line with company branding.

Regardless of where you live, there’s sure to be a digital agency that can help you take your business to the next level and have a robust digital presence. In many cities, there could be multiple accredited and award-winning digital agencies that may be vying for your business. If you find yourself in that position, here are a few things to look for in a digital agency to help you choose the right one.

Check On Their Marketing

When you are evaluating any new potential business partner, you always do your due diligence and research as much as you can about the company in question. You want to learn how they do business and what kind of work they do. Think about that concept and apply it to your search process for a digital agency.

This digital agency is going to be responsible for handling your digital marketing and will effectively have control of your brand’s digital profile.

You want to be sure that they know what they are doing by evaluating for yourself. The best way to do that is to check out their own marketing efforts, brand profile, graphics, and everything related to their digital presence.

For example, if you search on Google for the “best digital agency” in your city, where does the company rank on Google? How are this company’s Facebook ads? If you like what you see, you may like the kind of work they do for you.

Check Their Portfolio

Another way to evaluate a company’s work is to get their brand portfolio and research how those brands are doing online. Try picking a brand that is in the same industry as you so you can get a feel of how their writers and designers like to work.

In addition, you can judge how prolific the agency is by the clients they have and choose to share with you. If there are some big names you recognize, that could be a good sign. But, if the names you see are much bigger than your company, perhaps this agency isn’t the right size for your business.
