10 Elements of a Good Marketing Relationship With a Agency or Firm

Patrick McFadden

Talking with one of my employees recently during a check-in gave me a revealing insight around how we serve our prospects and clients.


She mentioned how she enjoys that Indispensable Marketing shows prospects and clients "what a proper marketing relationship looks like."


So much so that anyone that has a conversation or consultation with us can never again say you don’t know what a proper marketing relationship and approach looks like.


This got me thinking about the elements of a proper relationship with a marketing service provider or agency:


1. they diagnosis before prescribing

2. they educate you on how the results are being achieved

3. they have weekly/monthly/quarterly communication

4. they understand your specific business and customers

5. they don't change order you to death

6. they encourage you to own and give you access to everything

7. they look to solve problems outside of their core offering

8. they meet you where you are

9. they are responsive through email and phone

10. they are transparent about results and the length of time to generate them
