Which team fits which

Start with a written brief that identifies your target accounts, the work you want to commission and the person responsible for following up on leads. Use the same brief with every agency so proposals answer comparable questions. Our agency evaluation guide provides further reading for that process.

Team and capacity: Ask who will work on the account, how much time they will allocate and who covers absences. Request a named contact and a clear division between strategy, execution and your own team's responsibilities.
Channels and audience: Specify target industries, company sizes, locations and buyer roles. Ask how the proposed channels match those buyers and what inputs you must provide. Write the audience definition before comparing activity volumes; the ICP definition framework is relevant preparation.
Contract and total cost: Request the initial term, notice period, renewal process and treatment of scope changes in writing. Separate service fees from tools, media spend and production expenses. Ask for a complete worked example of the first billing period.
Reporting and review: Agree on the reporting schedule, metric definitions and access to campaign information. Ask for a sample report and identify which decisions each review should support. Assign someone internally to act on the findings.
Lead handover: Define an acceptable lead, the information delivered with it and the destination for each handover. Agree who checks records, who follows up and how sales feedback reaches the agency. Document the process before launch.

Keep the selection tied to the amount of work your team can absorb. A small sales team should define a realistic follow-up capacity, while a larger buying group should agree on one decision maker for scope changes. For the staffing decision, read agency versus in-house SDR.
