There are many marketing agencies operating in the UK – and by many, we mean an estimated 25,000! Some marketing agencies are huge companies with multiple offices whilst others operate on a much smaller scale.
Because marketing is such a broad spectrum, agencies specialise within certain areas of marketing, or cover a few services out of many.
Types of marketing agencies in the UK include;
- Advertising agencies
- Branding agencies
- PR agencies
- Design agencies
- Online and digital marketing agencies
- Media buying agencies
- Print marketing agencies
- Social media marketing agencies
- Website design agencies
You can get agency hybrids, like LOCALiQ, who are a digital marketing agency that specialises in online marketing services such as SEM and SEO, social media, advertising, media buying and web design, but that’s enough about ourselves for now.
However, whilst we are here, we are going to explore what a social media marketing agency is, what they do, whether your business needs an agency, and how to choose one.
