How much does a digital marketing agency cost?

Digital marketing services typically cost clients between $100–$300 hourly. While most companies can expect something in this range, full-service agencies may charge more. Similarly, specialized or a la carte services may be less expensive.

What are the benefits of hiring a digital marketing company?

Hiring a digital marketing agency allows you to temporarily bring a group of experts into your business while taking the responsibilities of digital marketing off your plate. This will help you reinvest your time in growing your business and leave marketing strategy to experienced professionals. Additionally, digital marketing services generally offer a 5:1 ROI, making the financial investment incredibly worthwhile.

How do you hire a digital marketing agency?

When hiring a digital marketing agency, you need to start by creating an RFP or shortlisting potential partners on your own. To do this, you must fully understand the scope of work you’re planning to request. You don’t have to know the specifics of how these services will be implemented, but communicating the deliverables you expect from the engagement will be important. At this stage, it’s also helpful to set a budget for the project and communicate it when interviewing candidates. It may be beneficial to browse reviews and other information about leading digital marketing agencies on The Manifest or Clutch to determine which agencies may suit you best.

What are some examples of digital marketing?

Types of digital marketing include SEO, PPC, social media marketing, email marketing, content marketing, mobile marketing, affiliate marketing, video marketing, and more.
