Frequently Asked Questions

What should I look for when hiring a South African digital marketing company?

The first thing to look for in a South African digital marketing company is its service and industry focus to check if they specialize in the services you seek and if they have experience serving in the industry you belong to. Look at their portfolio, i.e., the history of clients they have served and projects they have created.

Look for honest reviews and feedback given to them by various clients on their official website or other channels. Multiple services come under the umbrella of digital marketing; when hiring the company, see if they specialize in the particular service you are looking for.

Look for the tools they will be using for delivering that particular service; for instance, if you are hiring them for email marketing, look for the email marketing tools they often use. Also, look for the communication tool they will use to coordinate with you and keep you updated. Review their time management skills to see if they deliver all projects they take on time.

How do I select a top digital marketing company in South Africa for my brand?

South Africa houses many competent and reliable digital marketing companies, and we must follow the proper steps to find the best out of them. Begin by getting a list of the leading digital marketing companies in South Africa using any reliable B2B research & review platform such as GoodFirms, keyword research on search engines, or a platform like Linkedin.

Now, segregate companies with specialization and experience in the service you seek by going through each portfolio. Check which company has the most experience providing the desired service and the industry you represent. Conduct a one-on-one with the shortlisted companies and gather the details, such as the team strength and hierarchy assigned to you. The tools and technologies they will be using, be it digital marketing tools or collaboration and communication tools.

In the same meeting, discuss the detailed pricing structure, estimated project delivery time, and deliverables that will be provided to you. Now, carefully analyze the collected information and choose the digital marketing company that offers more deliverables and has access to best-in-class tools and technologies in your budget and expected time.

How much does it cost to hire a Digital Marketing agency in South Africa?

Small agencies with little experience and offering basic services can charge around ZAR 5,000 to ZAR 20,000 monthly.

Medium-sized agencies offering more services and significantly larger years of experience than small agencies can charge between ZAR 20,000 and ZAR 50,000. Large agencies offering almost all leading digital marketing services can charge from ZAR 50,000 to 100k+ monthly.

Long story short, South African digital marketing agencies' hiring costs largely depend on the size, experience, reputation, and number of services they offer.

How do B2B or B2C digital marketing agencies in South Africa leverage technology to give clients a competitive edge?

South African B2B and B2C digital marketing companies are making the most of the country’s ever-evolving digital landscape and tech-savvy culture. For one, the digital marketing companies here have been good at data-driven decision-making as they mine customer data such as website analytics, CRM data, and more to better understand the audience and develop and send personalized campaigns.

AI-powered automation tools schedule social media posts, manage email campaigns, and conjure relevant content. ML algorithms are employed to forecast customer behavior and identify churn risks. VR and AR tech have been used for product demos and immersive brand experiences. Chatbots for product recommendations and semi-personalized interactions. Based on GPS and location data, location-based marketing is deployed to target ads to customers based on location. These are just a few examples of how B2B or B2C digital marketing agencies are turbocharging the South African tech landscape.

What are the most preferred digital marketing services in South Africa?

Some of the most preferred digital marketing services in South Africa are SEO, social media marketing, pay-per-click advertising, email marketing, content marketing, and search engine marketing. Web design and development, Public relations, market research, video production, website optimization, and Google & Microsoft ads management are more in-demand services in South Africa.

Is outsourcing a digital marketing agency in South Africa worth it?

Outsourcing to a South African digital marketing agency for all your digital marketing needs can benefit your campaign in many ways. These digital marketing agencies house qualified professionals specializing in various digital marketing services and have experience in serving leading industries. They have access to standard tools and technologies that freelance digital marketers might not have access to.

Outsourcing will be very cost-effective due to lower labor rates and living costs in South Africa, leading to lower service charges. Moreover, outsourcing to these digital marketing agencies is also time-effective compared to hiring in-house digital marketers due to the absence of training time and the presence of experts.

These South African digital marketing agencies can help you drive a digital marketing campaign that resonates with the local market if you are a company looking to target the South African population. They house professionals proficient in English, thus making communication and collaboration with English-speaking clients easier.

How do GoodFirms provide reliable and highly rated top digital marketing firms in South Africa?

GoodFirms conducts in-depth research on every company it lists on its service pages using a company performance algorithm developed by its research team. This company performance algorithm reviews and ranks South African digital marketing firms based on two components: core competencies and 360-performance view.

The core competency component of the algorithm evaluates these companies based on their core services, the ones they are specialized in and known for in the market. At the same time, 360 performance reviews consider the agency's overall performance based on three factors: client reviews, market presence, and GoodFirms score.

The performance evaluation based on GoodFirm's company performance algorithm is stringent and accurate. It allows us to list only the most reliable and best-rated digital marketing firms with their proper ranks on our service pages.
