Choosing the right sort of agency is important, if you are a startup business, working with a freelancer or small marketing agency may be best since their monthly rates will be smaller. If you are a well established business like Jaguar Land Rover, then working with a larger well established agency is wise.
Another thing to consider is the agencies industry experience. Do they know your market, your competitors, your sector jargon?
If you are a business like Jaguar Land Rover, would you feel comfortable using an agency that has a strong background in fashion marketing or pet care companies? Possibly not.
