Even for me, as an agency owner with 13 years of experience, it is usually impossible to judge an agency’s performance from the outside. Some agencies have great websites and look great – but don’t really but I also have to work satisfactorily for their customers. Other agencies have a terrible website themselves but do top-notch work on clients. Of course there are also great agencies with great websites and so on. The range here is incredibly high and I personally only. Hear something here and there from former customers or other “gossip” from the industry.

    I too am sometimes surprised and often

The XY agency was great in 2015 with 10 employees. But a few years later with 50 employees, the way we work has changed significantly. Increasing the size can also lead to a better way of working and reducing the size can also worsen the quality – depending on the individual case. Unfortunately, you can only judge the cooperation with your agency once you work with them. Even then, even in the best relationship, there will probably always be ups and downs and a lot depends on you and your expectations. This makes it all the more important to “check out” the agency beforehand and see what the collaboration could look like.

By the way.

    I often do it by asking on Facebook or Linkedin

However, you need a large (Facebook/Linkedin) network for this. An agency calls you in a cold call using cold calling. What should you do? You should be very skeptical. What you need to know is that I am a staunch opponent of cold calling by telephone. In my opinion, an online marketing agency should be able to generate more customers through online marketing.
