We leverage our experience as both brand marketers and agency veterans to help brands not only find and hire the right talent to create these teams, but how to implement the processes, structure, and best practices to ensure their success.
We believe that in order for these types of transformations to stick, they have to be done from the inside out. This is why our first goal is to become part of the client’s team. We strategically bring in chameleons to play key roles on the team to help learn the nuances behind our client’s culture, capabilities, and level of maturity.
Step 1
We become an extension of your leadership team by taking a deep dive into your company and its culture through stakeholder conversations. Together we assess your current state: including the existing marketing/creative services team’s capabilities and processes, budgets, outline dependencies on external agencies and the operational/cost efficiencies of performing work in-house. The ultimate goal is to create a business assessment, recommendations and business case that clearly outline the ROI of bringing agency capabilities internally.
Step 2
As part of your team, we work to find efficiencies and develop workflows that adopt an agency model, enabling collaboration and clear ownership within integrated teams. This new approach will also ensure full visibility into consumer insights to create a well-informed, agile and nimble process. Our team will document the workflow, identify systems needed to maintain a successful process and develop a plan of integration to help socialize throughout the organization.
Step 3
Based on the needs of the organization, we work to develop job profiles that attract and retain the talent needed to build an internal agency. Relevant experience, talent, and a fit with company culture will ensure the best possible candidates. Creating a clear career progression that allows the existing team to develop and grow is an important part of that strategy.
Our team will assist in the recruiting process, as well as make recommendations on hiring. We identify and work with leaders within the internal organization we’re developing to build and guide their teams during the onboarding process.
Step 4
We develop briefs to provide clear direction across lines of business, including documented training and briefing processes. This ensures everyone on the team is working from the same centralized documentation and established marketing calendar to meet the organization’s marketing needs.
Step 5
We’re determined to take your organization to new heights by providing the ever-evolving resources and team to help you get there. As an extension of your team, our interim leadership can provide best-in-class mentoring and guidance to your newly established internal agency. We are able to develop tailor-made bootcamps to support continued growth and professional development for your team.
