Marketing Agency Engagement Model

Working with BuzzTheory

THE ANTI-AGENCY
ENGAGEMENT
MODEL

Working with most agencies can be frustrating. We know. We clean up behind them all the time. At BuzzTheory, we’ve turned the agency model on its head and eliminated those frustrations.

Our client-centric engagement model delivers high-value service—and has earned us accolades as one of the best-performing firms in the world—through five core differentiators:

 

    1. Our proprietary, points-based pricing delivers unparalleled transparency and budget predictability.

    2. Our business model is built around your success.

    3. We lead with high-value content, not the other way around.
    4. We back the best content team in the business with world-class tools.

    5. We earn your business every month.

points-based pricing

Our proprietary, points-based pricing system wipes away one of the biggest frustrations in working with agencies—pricing transparency and predictability. Most agencies charge you by the hour even though you have no control over how fast they work or which employees are assigned to your projects.

The resulting lack of transparency makes it impossible to budget or forecast accurately; and you never know if you’ve got the right person assigned to the right task at the right billing rate. Our points-based pricing system eliminates these concerns, and more, through a simple, transparent model.

How It Works:

Select Your Monthly Points Plan

Allocate Your Points to Projects 

Always Know What You’re Buying

Never Get an Unexpected Bill

Yes, It’s That Simple!

With BuzzTheory, You’ll:

Stop Runaway Tasks

Since our pricing is fixed, you’re never billed more than you expected for any task or project.

No surprises, no overages, no headaches or frustration.

Budget Accurately

Since the burden of efficiency is on us—and not you—you gain unprecedented accuracy in your budgeting and forecasting.

Many clients tell us that working with BuzzTheory is the first time they’ve been able to accurately predict costs.

Rest Easy

We don’t have quotas, billable hours or other conflicts that, in other models, might cause worry over inflated invoices.

Adapt to Change

We meet with you twice monthly to review your points allocation so you can confidently respond to changes in priorities or unforeseen needs without blowing out your budget.

  High-Value Content

Content Marketing

The single-most important part of any marketing effort is solid content, and that’s where most agencies fall flat.

Content makes or breaks every piece of marketing—your video script, flyer, landing page, drip campaign, PPC ad, PR pitch, awards application, webpage, conference agenda—you name it.

Content is where BuzzTheory shines. Our team has been integral to building company brands and the biggest content and conference properties in the technology services space. We expertly leverage the same domain knowledge for your company.  

Content’s also one of the ways we’ve turned the agency model upside-down. Instead of scrambling to fill empty marketing automation routines and content calendars, we help you franchise solid pieces of content for revenue generation, sales activation, lead nurturing and customer retention.

The typical agency model is built around filling automation platforms, content calendars or cadences, list- and automation-oriented targeting, and then attempting to find content to fill those plans. An effective, content-driven model should start with content as its foundation, and then strategically target and franchise that content in ways that create value and close business.

 

world-class tools

We back world-class talent and expertise with market-leading tools. Our clients love that we use top-tier toolsets. Here’s why:

1. You never have to worry about whether another tool could have helped to deliver a better result. We go straight to the top of the market.
