How to choose a marketing agency in San Jose
- Ask for case studies or references from clients in a similar industry or size, and contact those clients yourself rather than relying only on the agency's own summaries.
- Clarify who owns the ad accounts, website, and creative files. You should keep access and ownership if you ever end the relationship.
- Request a clear scope with deliverables, reporting frequency, and the metrics that matter to your goals. Vague promises about brand buzz are hard to hold anyone to.
- Be careful with guaranteed rankings or instant results. Reputable agencies explain timelines honestly and show how ad spend and management fees are separated.
