Agency Spotter Releases Top Branding Agencies Report: January 2018

Agency Spotter publishes the Top 20 Branding Agencies Quarterly Report that ranks more than 2,000 branding agencies based on their competitive portfolio, agency work and client reviews.

Competition was fierce this quarter with lots of movement. In the new edition of the Top Branding Agencies Report, 17 agencies made the report for the first time with 7 new agencies cracking the top 10 spots.

Seeing such an important aspect of marketing become increasingly competitive is something to keep our eyes on in 2018. It means more agencies are specializing to build competitive advantage.
