Hiring new talent is an important decision and big investment for any company. Before hiring a marketing executive or expanding your marketing team, consider these 3 benefits of strategic outsource marketing.
Costs
If you hire a full-time VP-level marketing executive, your up-front costs for salary and benefits alone can be upwards of $200,000. A VP Marketing can be a sound investment for strategic development, budgeting, and high-level planning, but what about the execution? Chances are you’ll need to hire additional marketing resources to manage social media, conduct PR outreach, and carry out technical graphic design projects. The best part about an outsource marketing agency: you only pay for resources when you need them.
Objective recommendations
It’s very easy to miss opportunities because “it’s the way we’ve always done it”. A fresh perspective can be invaluable when brainstorming solutions to tough hurdles.
Multi-faceted expertise
With a full-service marketing agency, you have a nearly limitless amount of services at your disposal. With over 19 years of experience, we’ve assembled an expert team with experience in every area of marketing. Award-winning graphic and web design, online marketing, marketing strategy, content creation, budgeting, copywriting, public relations, video, advertising – if you need it, we provide it. We even won the HITMC Agency of the Year Award for growing companies and advancing healthcare, so you’re in good hands with our team.
Resourcing flexibility
An outsource marketing agency model gives you budget efficiency because a good agency can ramp and scale back with some advance notice. If you have busy trade show seasons, followed by slower periods, outsourcing will save you money.
Industry connections

Our team of marketing experts has real-world leadership experience as VP Marketing, VP Business Development, CMO, and Webmaster positions at startups and Fortune 50 firms.
