What makes a Good Agency

Good agency, from client’s perspective:

  • Adds value to strategic discussion, not just gofers
  • Treats clients’ money as if it is their own (assuming they are good with their money)
  • Transparency in billing
  • Right chemistry; yes, the ‘like factor’ is critical
  • Responsive (almost a prerequisite)
  • Gets the attention of the agency’s biggest brains
  • Agency personnel use client’s products/services (can’t work for KFC and live in RC unless it’s for research purposes)
  • Fights for their work; not a pushover
