A Different Approach: From Pitching to Piloting
Traditional agency searches can involve lengthy RFPs, extensive speculative work, multiple presentation rounds, and significant demands on both clients and agencies.
ASK believes the selection process should be designed around the decision the client actually needs to make.
Our approach emphasizes piloting the client–agency relationship rather than relying exclusively on a pitch process and presentation.
That means getting beyond credentials and polished presentations to understand how a prospective agency team thinks, collaborates, challenges assumptions, approaches business problems, and works with the people it would ultimately serve.
Depending on the assignment, this can include structured working sessions, focused capability assessments, leadership conversations, and clear evaluation criteria.
The goal is to help clients make a confident decision based on both what an agency can do and how well the partnership is likely to work.
