Why Engage Shaw/Scott?


With over 8,000 marketing tools spanning a large surface area of functionality, choosing the right solution can be challenging and confusing. Not only is there significant cross over in functionality, vendors often exaggerate the capabilities of their products and focus on the technology rather that the strategic and business needs first. The process needs stakeholders to be aligned and onboard with change. It is a big decision requiring both time and financial investment. The wrong decision can be costly and highly disruptive to the business.


Shaw/Scott is highly experienced in the digital marketing space and has led large global brands through the evaluation process. We understand the marketplace and landscape better than most and can help businesses align teams and navigate challenges.


Costs


Evaluation Services start at £25,000 and vary depending on the size and complexity of the business and the number of vendors in the evaluation.
