If you are not a marketing agency yourself, it’s advisable to outsource your marketing needs to an agency. The very first reason for this is – as you have the expertise in what your business does, similarly they do marketing as their core offering, hence they have expertise for the same.
Building an in-house team for food marketing services for your food brand can sound to be lucrative, but in reality it will have several pains. Okay, let’s take the context, did you get your food packaging designing done in in-house? Or you hired an agency for the same? In most of the cases the answer would be the first one where brands usually outsourced such needs to an external agency. When you ask the reason, they would most probably be replaying – we do have expertise in food and beverage branding in UK, that’s the reason we outsourced to an agency that does it perfectly.
Exactly, the reasons for not doing it in-house are – inexperience and lack of better understanding on the subject. These two reasons which quite dominantly stay with you when you start building your in-house designing or branding teams. Your team lacks expertise and experience and you will arrange for proper training for them. Moreover, it adds a lot to the administration and management overheads which may be difficult to handle for smaller companies. You will need to learn and experience from your mistakes. Then why spend time in making mistake still increase costs? The best approach is to outsource such needs to an external company or agency. It will not only keep costs to the minimum, but will also not add any kind of extra burden on your advertising and promotion budgets.
