Almost all digital marketing agencies are increasingly aware of the importance of the client, because what used to work has stopped working in recent years. Today's client demands greater commitment and a more measurable return on investment from their service providers.
As digital transformation advances, clients gain greater knowledge advantage when buying the services that marketing agencies offer. If we add to this that the new generation of CEOs, more connected with digital culture, are increasingly aware of the importance of digital marketing as the brand's core, many prefer to create their marketing departments in-house.
How will marketing agencies face this cultural shift?
To keep up with growing consumer expectations, our marketing agency, Interaction, warns of the importance of commitment to brands.
In the past, clients of advertising and marketing agencies had a defined budget with which they could contract specific services from agencies. Today, however, the trend calls for greater emphasis on the customer experience — not just providing more visits and better qualification, but also delivering platforms that help resolve those clients' questions and inquiries, and that help integrate their actions with the technologies in the market.
Today's consumer expects to be treated as a person. This means delivering personalization and context. Furthermore, the modern consumer chooses to engage with marketing messages that are relevant to them.
Marketing agencies need to adopt a new mindset and commit with clients to building marketing strategies based on real growth indicators. What should be clear is that content has been the past, is the present, and will be the future — it will continue to reign.
Since Google globally consolidated its search engine in 2009 and opened up countless digital marketing businesses connected to it, there has been a great deal of unfair competition with companies offering poor results at very low prices.
This has made brands wary when contracting services with marketing agencies, forcing prices down for new competitors entering the market. The fact is, the only way to have good professionals at your disposal is by paying them well, and that only happens by delivering good results — hence the importance of the relationship between marketing agencies and companies.
Many companies and brands base their decision to hire agency services on professional trust, but they forget that what matters most is the agency's orientation, which means valuing its involvement in your organization.
Indicators for valuing your ideal marketing agency
- Its adaptation to your business model.
- Its enthusiasm for the project.
- The profile (professional track record) of each member of the agency in relation to your business.
- Its commitment and its willingness to take risks for your company.
Advantages of having a marketing agency
- Having a group of professionals at your disposal to coordinate your work with.
- The opportunity to work with a marketing team at a lower cost than hiring the varied profiles required for the different phases of marketing internally.
- The experience and trust (gradually) gained if the relationship prospers between both organizations.
- Access at lower cost than direct hiring to professional profiles with experience.
At Interaction, we move hand in hand with innovation and digital technologies, where our different teams and professionals strive to stay at the forefront, helped by this new wave of digital strategies for our clients' benefit.
