Marketing Firms in Pittsburgh

8/26/2020

Comments

 
Pittsburgh is home to a number of marketing agencies. Some offer a full-service experience, while others specialize in a distinct area of expertise.

There are two distinct issues with full-service agencies.

First, outside of the largest brands, most companies cannot afford to pay a full-time agency of record. The cost of the ongoing retainer is significantly less efficient than hiring a great marketer in-house.

Second, lots of firms hide their mediocrity behind the ‘full-service’ moniker. A lot of the services they list on their website get contracted out to subs or are done after Googling “how-tos” for a few hours.

If you’re a marketing manager with a limited budget, you need to know that your dollars are well spent. Below, I’ve listed a number of specialists in different areas of marketing that you can partner with to get real results.
