Questions to Help You Choose The Best Digital Marketing Agencies in Chicago
What services do you offer as a digital agency in Chicago?

While some specialize in particular industries, digital marketing agencies in Chicago offer a broad range of services under the digital marketing umbrella. It’s crucial to learn which digital marketing services a potential agency provides to ensure it aligns with your business goals. For instance, if you’re looking to increase website traffic, you’ll want to make sure the agency offers SEO, copywriting, PPC advertising, and social media marketing services.

 

If you’d like extensive online marketing services, you can partner with a full-service digital marketing agency in Chicago. Though, if your company objectives are clear, it may be more beneficial for you to engage with digital marketing agencies in Chicago that specialize in the area you look for.

 

You can review the services offered by our member agencies on their profile pages.

Which industries does your marketing agency have experience in?

The fundamentals of each business are different, and target audiences might vary significantly in terms of personality and behavior. Always make sure that the agency has experience in the sector that your company serves. By doing this, you can ensure that they are skilled in your industry’s specifics and how to manage your digital marketing efforts.

 

If your company serves in a subcategory of an industry, the agency’s specific knowledge of this sub-category will enable them to offer you more optimised digital marketing services and evaluate your budget correctly. Also, if your industry has any unique characteristics, especially in Chicago, make sure the digital agency you’ll be working with is informed.

 

You can review the sectors in which our member agencies are experts on their profile pages.

What results have you achieved for your customers within the scope of digital marketing?

Having a positive return on investment is important for business owners. That’s why inquiring about the agency’s results for their clients in terms of lead generation, conversions, and revenue can be a good start. This will give you an idea of ​​their ability to drive profitable results with proven digital marketing methods.

 

As we mentioned in the previous questions, make sure you ask the digital marketing companies in Chicago to demonstrate the results they have received for similar companies in your industry, within the scope of the services you need.

What are your agency's communication and reporting methods?

Every project, including digital marketing campaigns, requires communication. Ask a few questions about the agency’s communication and reporting procedures, as well as how they will keep you updated on the status of your campaigns. In this way, everyone will be on the same page throughout the project.

 

Also, you have to improve your digital marketing terminology. You will be completely in the dark if you do not understand the terms agencies in Chicago use, such as CPA, conversion rate optimization, etc. while they’re reporting the campaign results.

What are your agency's pricing structure and payment terms?

It’s essential that you comprehend the marketing agency’s pricing model and make sure it aligns with your budget. Inquiring about customizable solutions or packages for various digital marketing applications, as well as knowing the payment terms, can be beneficial.

 

Furthermore, before signing a contract with digital marketing agencies in Chicago, it is critical to determine the monthly retainer amount, budgets for third-party media and advertising platforms, and the upper limit of unforeseen expenses.

What are your team’s areas of expertise?

The agency’s team plays a vital role in your digital marketing campaigns’ success. Find out about their experience and skills in the areas that you need more support with. This will ensure that they have the right people for your project.

 

It may not be easy to meet them personally because most digital agencies in Chicago work remotely, but you should attempt to meet face-to-face with the agency’s leaders and managers who will handle your account. However, this does not mean that you need to meet every team member like designers or developers. You should focus on communicating with managers and leaders because they oversee their team’s work.
