In the last twelve months, Agency Spotter has helped marketers and subject matter experts find agency and design partners for everything from web design to branding, from digital strategy to mobile, and from advertising to social media. There have been project based work ranging from $8,000 to over a $1,000,000 USD and searches for annual engagements including multi-million dollar agency of record deals.

Agency Spotter continues to innovate to meet the demands of marketers and subject matter experts. In the first half of this year, we launched the first iPhone app for agency search to speed up shortlisting and to start conversations with great partners more quickly (AdWeek). Then, we delivered Project Search so you can find partners by the great work they do. I encourage you to check out all the amazing work happening around the globe.

We hope that this trends report brings us closer as a community of practice and make life easier for you.
