In today’s competitive landscape, companies often allocate a significant portion of their budget to marketing and sales. According to industry research, businesses typically spend about 37% of their revenue on digital, marketing, and sales operations. Yet, despite this hefty investment, many businesses aren’t seeing the returns they expect.
As a new member of Atomic Revenue, I can appreciate the different approaches in achieving success for company brands. In the ever-evolving world of marketing, two distinct perspectives are emerging: Digital Revenue Operations (DRO) and Traditional Marketing Agencies. Both occupy crucial positions on the marketing spectrum, and offer unique attributes that merit careful consideration before choosing which makes sense for your company.
Traditionally, marketing agencies have been the go-to solution for many companies when they experience slumping sales and inconsistent revenue. A business typically hires a marketing firm to highlight its products and/or services in a new way (website update, printed collateral, social media ads, trade show design, etc.) or to refresh its brand, all in an attempt to get the target audience’s attention, create leads, and ultimately increase sales.
