how it works

The Existing Communications Models


  • Outsourcing Through One Agency of Record

    You are billed hourly for each deliverable and may be charged up to 20 percent extra for any supplementary outside services. Additionally, most agencies will require a retainer to be on call. You will also need to have a communications manager or coordinator to liaise with whichever agency you chose.

  • Outsourcing Through Multiple Service Providers

    You are billed separately for each deliverable and may be charged up to 20 percent for any outside services. Each supplier needs to be briefed, met with and monitored on a continuing basis. For this type of structure a senior communications manager is required to coordinate the daily tasks.

  • Building an Internal Communications Department

    You build an internal team consisting of a seasoned communications manager, in addition to professionals from a wide range of industries that have expertise in all of the necessary fields. Depending on the size of your business you will need to add a minimum of three employees to your payroll.
