How can we help you?
Agency by Agency runs the UK’s only comprehensive agency directory, enriched with data on capabilities and specialisms, growth signals and acquisition intelligence. We help people find agencies, and we help agencies be found.
Corporate development, M&A, holding groups
You’re trying to find independent agencies in specific capability areas, but the right ones are hard to find.
Private equity and agency investors
You need to understand the market before committing. Size, segmentation, comparable performance and where the opportunity really sits.
Brand-side marketers and procurement
You’re building a longlist for a pitch and want agencies you might not have heard of, for example specialists in a specific capability or geography.
Media owners, adtech and martech suppliers
You want to reach agencies that aren’t already on your radar or those you might have missed.
Policy makers, combined authorities, LEPs
You need to understand the creative and agency sector in your region, its size, composition, growth trends and economic contribution.
How do we do it?
We’ve worked with holding companies, combined authorities, media owners, brands and M&A advisors, all with the same underlying challenge: to find the right agency.
Agencies are mapped by combining our expert insight into the agency sector with data from the world’s most trusted data providers.
