Got Any Preconceptions About Partnering With An Agency?

As a member of the Forbes Agency Council, I am invited to participate in expert panels. It’s a great exercise that provides different viewpoints on the same topic.

This panel has to do with common myths folks have about partnering with an agency.

Here’s my take:

‘An Agency Is Just Another Vendor’

Occasionally we describe our services as “your outsourced director of marketing.” Most clients that see success without an agency are likely marketing in part-time mode, hiring creative production vendors for Web, video, etc. A good agency is not a vendor but a partner brought in to drive marketing full-time, syncing with leadership to write strategy and create sales for conversion and accountable for return on investment. – Patrick Nycz, NewPoint Marketing
