Agencies have specialized marketing skills and expertise that companies lack. They provide an objective perspective on industry trends and competitors. Agencies also have flexibility to scale up or down quickly as needs change and can focus solely on results rather than internal distractions. Outsourcing to an agency can improve outcomes, save costs, and increase marketing efficiency compared to an in-house team.
