By November 26, 2018marketing agencies

Advertising agencies thrive off of creative individuals sharing their ideas with others and coming up with the best plans for their clients. Through teamwork, these advertising agencies create masterpieces that elevate their clients above the competition in their industry, but what exactly is a successful marketing team comprised of?

A successful advertising team is made up of individuals who are experts in various roles, as well as individuals who recognize that to thrive in the world of marketing, you have to be driven, hungry and motivated; there is no room for laziness in this fast-paced, evolving industry. Here is the importance of team coordination within advertising agencies that gets clients the results they want.

Strategy and Concept

Strong teams who have crafted even stronger bonds are able to strategize and conceptualize their visions and complete projects in an efficient time period.  Collaboration requires a high level of trust and can only be achieved through strong communication and experience working together. Advertising agencies should always make sure that they aren’t constantly switching out people on their team, as this hinders the trust building process. Successful teams are often those who have been working together for an extended period of time.

Production is Achieved Through Cooperation

The best projects are those which have been worked on by the entire team to make sure that everyone’s vision was included in a manner that makes sense. When an advertising team coordinates together to make a vision come to life, you get the most prestigious and masterful work possible, which makes clients happy, which keeps your agency running.

How the Different Teams Coordinate

It all starts in the brainstorming session with the writing team. This is where ideas are born for things like blogs, scripts and videos. Once the team has agreed upon the ideas discussed in the meeting, it’s up to copywriters to start drafting up versions of the needed content. After the content has been written, edited and approved, the graphic artists, designers and videographers turn scripts into visual works of art.

Visual pieces help clients interact with their audiences on social media and paint visuals of important information they want to get across to their consumers. Once the blogs, infographics, motion graphics and videos have been created, revised and approved by the client, it’s on the social team to post them to the client’s website and social platforms.

Advertising agencies are a lot like assembly lines: in order for campaigns or content to succeed, the different teams within the agency have to coordinate and communicate with each other to keep everything running smoothly.
