“Do I need email marketing?”

“Is my website helping or hurting my business? …I think it’s good enough...”

“I just don’t have time to create content.”

“Lead generator? What’s a lead generator?”

Quarterly newsletters and cold calls won’t do it.

The results above won’t be achieved through quarterly newsletters and the occasional cold call into a company to drum up business. This higher level of client attraction is forged through calculated marketing strategies that will establish brand credibility, build and nurture your online presence, and keep you top of mind in your target market.

The Problem?

Many search firms and executive recruiters are still operating out of the “old” business development playbook and don’t know where to begin when it comes to digital marketing. Not only that, it’s becoming more and more difficult to cut through the noise and stand out as a respected recruiting business in the new digital landscape.

That’s where we come in.

Our team at Vantage Labs will partner with you to lead your firm’s digital transformation.

We are a full-service agency, with our programs seamlessly covering all the bases.

If you feel your search firm slipping behind in the new digital landscape or if you can see that next plateau for your business but need a hand to get you there, we can help. Take the first step below!

Aligning your brand message across multiple social platforms

Expect Great Things from
Your Digital Marketing Agency

To be successful and achieve growth, it’s important that you’re able to narrow down what you are going to spend your time on—the things only you can do—versus what you need help with.

Vantage Labs is the extension of your team that will take the lead on your marketing initiatives.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you require a long-term commitment from your clients?

No, unlike many other agencies, we don't ask for any commitment as we believe we should earn your business each month. Our teams will work with you to plan out a greater trajectory (keep in mind, a successful marketing strategy is a continuous movement, not a stop and start cycle) but you have the option to cancel your services at any time if you do not see the value.

Is this a coaching program?

Vantage Labs is not a coaching program. We are a boots-on-the-ground, "done with you" service provider, meaning we collaborate with our clients on all aspects of your marketing plan, then put our processes and tech stack to work for you.  

Do you use the same “sales” templates for all of your clients?

No cookie-cutter sales templates here. We help our clients "cut through the noise" and stand out as the go-to authority in their market by showing up tactfully, adding value, and being intentional with their marketing messages. We will work with you to create an ongoing content calendar of industry insights and topics creating buzz in your market, which our team of copywriters will then use when developing your firm's custom content.

Do I have to have a list of people for email marketing?

No you do not have to have your own list of contacts for our email marketing service. Our team of researchers will source and verify contacts within your specific niche market based on your target companies and level of decision makers you'd like to reach with your marketing efforts. You will receive any/all completed lists to import into your own CRM.

How much work will I actually have to do?

Great question 😉 Full transparency, the onboarding process will require the most effort on your end. We want to learn as much as we can from you -  the in's and out's of your business, your industry, and what is going to make your specific audience tick. As they say, you only get out what you put in, so we strongly suggest that our clients take our onboarding process seriously.

From there, we will ask that you review all created content and any materials before being scheduled out.

Lastly, we just ask that you remain responsive and an active part of forecasting your marketing strategy.
