Marketing agency answers your burning questions
Whether or not you are immersed in the marketing world, there is often confusion surrounding the role of a marketing agency. That’s why we’re here to answer all of your burning questions to help you understand what we do. This blog will be focussing on all general aspects of the marketing world, but we have more posts coming that will go into specific elements of marketing such as websites and social media. We reached out on our socials for questions so if you have any more, don’t hesitate to get in touch and we would love to answer them soon!
Here at Monitor, we are a full-service creative agency that has a holistic marketing approach. So whether that’s building a website, producing a print magazine, or re-branding your business, we pretty much do it all! From animation to web design we hope you enjoy hearing all the ins and outs of our marketing agency.
Q: Why do I need a marketing agency’s help? Can’t I do it myself?
A: To start, you could do some of the work yourself. There are lots of useful tools that you can utilize online and our newsletter even includes tips and tricks in every edition on ways to benefit your business.
We might be biased, but getting a marketing agency’s help will take out doing all the hard work and leave you to reap the rewards. If you are running a business, time and money are SO important, and we want to help you use both to your advantage. Although you are spending money, you are spending it on experts who will produce work that will make you even more money. It’s a win-win, more more money, and time for you.
What’s useful about us here at Monitor, is that we can do a wide variety of work, meaning we can be consistent throughout, and get to know your brand and what you stand for. We see ourselves as an extension of your business. We have your best interests at heart.
Q: How much of my time will it take to work with a marketing agency?
A: It’s really up to you! We love our clients getting stuck in with all their ideas and helping them come to life, or we are more than happy to take the reigns and come back to you with our ideas/solutions.
It also depends on the type of project that you are working on with us. Some projects can take a couple of weeks with a few emails back and fourth or ongoing projects can involve us scheduling weekly or bi-weekly meetings with you to ensure everyone is in the loop and track progress. Whatever or whenever you work with us, we are always just an email or phone call away and you will have a dedicated account manager who will support you throughout your whole process with us.
Q: Do you do work that’s not digital?
A: Absolutely! Although we are primarily a digital marketing agency, our founder and chairman, Moray Newberry, started Monitor 30 years ago when digital wasn’t a thing! So, it is something we know all about. We’ve evolved from a traditional print-based specialist to a multidisciplinary team covering every aspect of digital and traditional media.
We produce a monthly magazine that averages 68 pages, goes to print, and is distributed to retailers up and down the UK. It has also been shortlisted for publication of the year. We can produce designs for flyers, brochures, and business cards.
