Use Your Network

Ask the Right Questions
Do the proposals look very similar? Maybe there’s a difference in price, and you’ll be tempted to go with the least expensive one.
That’s a sure way to hire the wrong agency. Dig deeper into the proposals by asking the right questions of the agencies.
Ask them exactly what you’re getting from their services. It’s not always clear in the proposal and you can make assumptions about the services provided.
The agency can turn around and tell that your assumptions are incorrect. What you thought was included actually costs extra.
Find out who owns the copyright of the work. Do you have complete ownership of the work or do you have to license the right to use the work?
Is the usage limited in any way or is it exclusive to your business?
The creative agency uses fonts and images that come from other sources. Make sure that you have the right to use the material that they provide.
