When you are looking for an agency for web
designing, branding
and marketing, the best creative
agency is generally hard to find. An agency that excels in creating branding, creatives
and communication that
develops a brand identity, rotates the eyeballs of the viewer and eventually increases
business is what makes a
creative agency the best.
How to know if you’ve found the best creative agency?
Though it is hard to find the best
creative agency in Delhi,
India but if you have an eye for the right brand, you’d know. The
best creative agency delivers
excellence through creativity that speaks for itself. If you want to join hands for the
best creative agency, you
must look for the following traits:
- Clear understanding of your needs and results
The best creative agency understands the importance of creating a visual
identity for any brand. It
analyses the brand journey, its audience and its needs, envisioning the desired
results. The creative agency
would know the brand inside-out and outside-in, understand its requirements and
judge the potential outcomes. It
knows best how to communicate the brand message to the consumer in a way that it
catches hold of his/her mind.
- Open to new ideas and experimentation
The best creative agency would have a creative team that is open to
learning at every point, every
project. Their minds are open to ideas and experimentation. Trying to bring the best
to the table, they play
with details, thoughts and designs. The mind bongling creative designs by experts
help your brand stand out in
the market.
- Experience
Skills get refined with experience. A creative agency with an experienced
creative team delivers
quality content. To know about the quality of work of any creative agency, one must
have a look at their
portfolio. An agency with years of experience and extraordinarily skilled creative
team will always have an
amazing portfolio that speaks for itself.

Creative Marketing
When you’re searching for a company to handle your web design, branding or marketing, how
can you choose a good
creative agency? Let’s face it, if you haven’t worked with an agency before, and the
only thing you know so far is
the price you’ve been given in a proposal, how do you determine if this is THE one? The
agency who will love you and
work with you forever?
Below are 10 ways to know you’ve picked the right agency. And we are totally okay (kind
of) with the fact that it
might not be us.
- They took the time to meet you.
Why meet when you can send an email? This might be true after you’ve established an
introduction to your agency,
but at first, it’s crucial that you meet with them in person, or at the very least,
over a phone call.”Why,” you
ask? Well, in a world full of emails and texts, it can be easy to send a proposal
and never take the time to set
up a meeting. But if they don’t do this one small thing at the beginning of the
process, how available will they
be when your project starts rolling? After all, you are spending a lot of money and
time and will be working
with them long-term. An initial meeting should be mandatory when choosing a creative
agency.
- They have an amazing proposal.
Some agencies will have flashy videos and swag to give you, and don’t get us wrong,
these are fabulous bonus
bits (that we ourselves have used), but don’t let that sway you from the meat of
what is truly important: the
proposal itself.A good proposal should outline the price of services, but more than
that, it should be a
customized blueprint of the work they will complete for you. If you are getting a
ballpark figure, or a proposal
that isn’t customized to your company, ask yourself if they are truly invested in
figuring out who you are and
what you need. Which brings us to our third point…
- They clearly understand your needs and challenges.
Does the agency have a clear understanding of what your pain points are, and why you
need branding or marketing
services? Or are they just handing you a generic proposal with a generic price,
without understanding your
company?You are unique, and they should deliver a unique solution to you. One that
addresses your needs and
challenges. Although this is likely explored in further detail with a brand analysis
and research after you
become a client, you should see glimpses of their understanding in their initial
meeting, and again in their
proposal.
Even if they are unfamiliar with your particular industry, they should understand
what types of problems you
face with your marketing and be able to articulate that from the beginning.
- They offer well-rounded expertise.
Marketing is the sum of different activities, so chances are that one project will
be connected to another. A
well-rounded agency should have a high level of expertise in all aspects of
marketing.They might be working
specifically on your website, but do they understand how it will work together with
your social media? Are they
doing content marketing for you? In that case, ask them how your branding materials
will be incorporated.
A good creative agency may or may not be able to offer all the marketing services
you need, but they will be
able to recommend or advise you on numerous other marketing topics, not just
their own specialization.
- They rank high on the creativity scale.
This is where a creative agency should shine (obviously). Whether it’s in the copy,
the design, the headlines or
the implementation, they should reign supreme on the idea front. Take a look through
their online portfolio and
see if you like their work. Is it well executed? Does it look professional and
fresh?Don’t make the mistake of
cutting corners by choosing an agency with sub-par creativity just to save a few
dollars. Design and ideas are
your brand, and the equity you are accumulating in your brand is extremely valuable
(just ask Nike or Apple). A
great agency will build on this equity and find creative avenues to make it even
more valuable.
- You have a good relationship.
Client-agency collaboration is crucial. The agency you choose will be working on an
important aspect of your
business. Do they meet with you to discuss important milestones? Do you feel
comfortable bringing up ideas with
them, and, are you open-minded to the new ideas they express?You and your agency
should be able to communicate
honestly and openly with each other, and have a solid relationship that allows for
an easy flow of ideas.
- They set realistic expectations.
If an agency says yes to your deadlines and budgets without clearly understanding
what’s involved, beware. It
means one of two things: One, they didn’t understand the full scope of the project
or, two, they are saying
whatever you need to hear. Either one spells disaster.
In fact, if you have a large project, such as a robust website, it’s often hard to
know what the completion
date, or even the final cost will be until the agency delves into strategy and
research.A good agency will tell
you what’s realistic, and then outline the reasons and an alternate approach if
needed, rather than just saying
yes. It’s better to know up front that you can’t have your new brand launch or
website within the price or
deadline you expect, than to have false promises, unplanned costs and missed
deadlines.
- They have references.
This one can get tricky, because of course no one is going to give a bad reference,
so take some time to
determine if the testimonial or reference is from a reputable business, and if so,
if that business is roughly
the same size or calibre as yours.
The reference doesn’t have to be in the same industry. Sometimes if they aren’t in
your industry, it’s a bonus,
as they will be more open to being completely honest with you.Ask their reference
what it’s like to work with
them. Did they enjoy the process? Were they easy to work with? Were they happy with
the end result? And don’t
forget the age-old question—would you work with them again?
- You like them.
Okay, let’s first clarify that the agency should be qualified, but after that, ask
yourself if you dig their
style. Have you met the team? Do they seem genuine and the type of people you’d
enjoy spending time around?We
have a hiring practice for both our employees and clients, and it’s a lesson taken
from the pages of the book
Delivering Happiness, written by Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh. It’s an easy question to ask
yourself, but a hard
question to follow through on. More than once we have gone against our gut feeling
and worked with someone who
we didn’t think would be the type of person we’d hang out with.
And you know what happened every time? We ended up kicking ourselves for a bad
decision. Relationships matter
in business, so make sure you like who you’re working with.
- They have wine.
Okay, maybe that’s just us. We happen to like wine, okay? And not only that, but
it’s a great icebreaker with
our clients, and a fun excuse to spend time with them. And hey, we do have coffee if
you really insist.
