What to consider before hiring a Marketing Agency?

Creative Director Dan Thomas & Managing Director Angelo Saliba from Bang Media talk through how to get the most out of hiring a marketing agency.

From startup owners on a tight budget to established businesses ready to invest in top-tier design, we discuss actionable tips to ensure you and your agency are set up for success.

What we cover

• Managing expectations from day one, so nobody is surprised three months in.
• Finding the right portfolio fit. Look for an agency whose recent work matches the calibre and style you are after.
• Being transparent about budget and why it gets you a better outcome, not a bigger invoice.
• "Problem aware" versus "solution aware" and how knowing the difference changes the brief you write.
• Fostering a collaborative, long-term relationship and why it ultimately benefits everyone involved.
