Can partnering with specialists really work for your agency?

Working in an agency, you’re often required to wear many hats. You’re a strategist, a project manager, a creative director, and sometimes, even a writer. But writing, especially copywriting, is a speciality in itself. It demands time, skill, and a deep understanding of the brand’s voice and message.  

But can partnering with other specialist agencies really work? Will clients accept a multi-agency team? And what are the benefits of sharing skills – and your client base – with other agencies? 

Working in partnership: the superhero team advantage 

Imagine your business as the headquarters of the Avengers. You need a diverse team of superheroes to tackle the challenges thrown your way.  

In these movies, each superhero brings a unique skill to the table. The same applies to agencies – some excel in search engine optimisation (SEO), others in content creation, and still others in content strategy. By combining these specialised forces, you can deliver exceptional results for your clients, on budget and on time.  

The solution: partnering 

Much like the combined strength of The Avengers – who together are more than the sum of their parts – partnering with specialists can be a game-changer.  

By outsourcing your copywriting needs to a dedicated agency like Wordsmiths, you can offer expert copywriting services alongside your existing services. It’s not just about offloading work; it’s about enhancing your service portfolio and delivering expertly crafted content that resonates with your clients. 

Being honest about working with other agencies 

Being open with clients that you work with specialists can feel like a litmus test of your relationship. Many agencies want to maintain the illusion that they can be experts in everything, despite only having 10 people on the payroll.  

The reality is, clients probably already know you’re working with people who aren’t strictly employed by your agency. But if they trust you, they will trust your chosen partners and who doesn’t want to know they have a team of super-specialists on their side, rather than well-meaning generalists.  

The benefits of partnering with specialists 

Partnering with specialists is like having Tony Stark’s lab build your tech while you’re Nick Fury, swooping about in S.H.I.E.L.D.’s aircraft carrier overseeing the operation. (You’ll have to excuse the Avengers geekery if you aren’t a fan, our chief wordsmith Louise loves to see a Marvel film with her son, Alex.) 

Partnering allows you to focus on your core competencies while making sure your clients receive comprehensive, high-quality services. It’s a win-win situation. Your clients get professional copywriting services, and you get to offer a broader range of services without spreading yourself too thin.
