  • Listen to Your Search Consultant

    I just left an agency search where the client was insistent on bringing in two agencies I recommended against bringing in. One was very tactical and one was limited in depth of experience in the sector the client operated in. Neither did a good job of responding to the RFI we shared with them. Neither... […]

With more marketers moving work in-house and more marketers using project work to “sample” agencies, no longer are big agencies at an advantage over their smaller agency counterpart firms.

    It’s often said that the only constant is change, and this certainly applies to our world of agencies and marketers.
