Testimonials

What our clients love about us

Having blogged for 10 years and having worked with a plethora of agencies, The Influence Agency team has been one of the top agencies I've connected with. Their ability to both balance creator relations and interests, while maintaining the priorities of their brands is incredibly impressive. As a creator, the team is always supportive and responsive and truly makes developing branded content seamless! I always look forward to working with them!

@melhwang

The Influence Agency is phenomenal. They’re incredible outside-the-box thinkers and we’re a great alternative to the traditional marketing efforts taken for the NFP I work for. We worked directly with Stephanie and Tom, both who had a high level understanding of the industry and a completely professional approach to social promotion. Looking forward to working with their team again!

Nicki Lamont

Global Digital Lead

I’ve had the pleasure of working with The Influence Agency for over five years, and they continue to impress me with their professionalism, creativity, and genuine care for the people they work with. As they’ve grown, they’ve managed to maintain the same kind and collaborative spirit that made them stand out from the start. The team goes above and beyond to advocate for their clients, while still prioritizing building authentic partnerships and strengthening relationships across the creator space. Working with them always feels effortless and inspiring, a true reflection of their dedication and passion for what they do.

Founder of Yesterday Inc.

The Influence Agency put on one of my favorite events ever for the launch of youtheory in Canada! The vibe was unmatched, with staff and creators enjoying themselves equally on the rooftop. It was also very diverse - both men and women were in attendance, which is rare since these events are usually female-dominated. They also didn’t forget us mature creators! It was refreshing to be part of a launch that values my age group. Thank you so much for the invite, TIA! More brands should take a page out of your book.

LaToya Ingleton

If you're looking for experts in the digital space, you HAVE to team up with The Influence Agency. We've been leveraging their expertise for over 12 years, and couldn't be happier to have them on our side. They take pride in what they do, and have put together an incredibly versatile team that can take care of all of the digital services we require. Highly, highly recommend our friends at TIA.

Vito Mastrorillo:

President

Wow – what an event! We are still buzzing over here. It was truly a memorable evening. The attention to detail was particularly impressive. Every element, from the décor, the drink menu names, the photo booth, the signage, etc., was meticulously planned and executed. It’s clear there was a lot of thought and care into making the event special.

 

We appreciate all the hard work that went into making our new line's launch party successful.

Colleen Roberts

Manager, Media, Global Marketing

Working with The Influence Agency has been an exciting and engaging experience. We appreciate their in-depth knowledge of the influence marketing space and their ability to align our mission with top influencers who help drive awareness of our fundraising initiatives"

Glenn van Gulik

Secretary for PR and Territorial Marketing

It was amazing to work with Stephanie and Kitty on our holiday Influencer programs. Responsive, professional and hard working - perfect partners! - would recommend over and over!

Andrew Verescak

Senior V.P. of Business Development

At Universal Music, we are frequently tasked with launching new albums and products with little to no notice which can prove challenging for traditional agencies.

The team at the Influence Agency have proven time and time again their ability to be both nimble and efficient at delivering influencer campaigns that are strategically targeted, creative and most importantly impactful with our artists audiences.

Fraser MacKenzie

Senior Director Digital

We have been working with TIA for 2+ years here at Staples and it's been an absolutely wonderful experience. They bring great energy and knowledge to the table and we have seen a great impact on our social channels ever since they took on our account. Cannot recommend enough!

Have questions?
We have answers

What does a digital marketing strategy agency do?

We are the architects of your digital success. Unlike standard digital marketing strategy consulting firms that only offer advice, The Influence Agency is an execution-led powerhouse. We unify your brand's voice, media spend, and creative assets into one cohesive engine. We handle everything from the initial marketing strategy development to the actual photography, paid media buying, and influencer outreach. We don't just tell you what to do; we provide the award-winning talent to do it for you.

How long does marketing strategy development take?

Typically, a comprehensive marketing strategy takes 4–6 weeks, depending on scope, budget, goals, and the complexity of your industry and competitive landscape.

During this time, we move from discovery and research to a clear, actionable plan with defined priorities, timelines, and next steps so your team can execute with confidence from day one.

As your campaigns go live, the strategy continues to evolve based on performance, ensuring we’re constantly optimizing and improving results through data-driven decision making.

How is digital marketing strategy different from a campaign plan?

Think of your digital marketing strategy as the North Star for your entire brand; it’s the long-term roadmap that defines who you are and where you’re going. A campaign plan is the tactical execution of a specific goal (like a product launch or a holiday sale) that lives within that broader strategy. One is the foundation, the other is the spark.

Do you offer digital marketing strategy consulting for in-house teams?

Yes, we love collaborating! We provide strategic guidance and insights that your internal marketing team can execute effectively, or we are happy to share execution responsibility depending on your internal capabilities.

What is the cost of your digital marketing strategy services?

Because we build custom strategies, pricing depends on the scale of your ambitions and the complexity of your market. Our goal is always to deliver a strategy that pays for itself through high ROI and long-term growth. During our initial strategy call, we’ll provide a transparent quote tailored to your specific goals.

Do you also execute the strategy after it is built?

This is where The Influence Agency really shines. We aren’t just marketing consultants who drop a deck and disappear. We’re a full-service strategic digital marketing agency that executes all digital marketing services under one roof.

How do you measure the success of your digital marketing strategy services?

We are relentlessly focused on the numbers that actually matter to your bottom line. Using advanced analytics and proprietary technology, we track measurable results like lead quality, ROI, and online performance. We also provide thought leadership on your data, helping you pivot and optimize in real-time based on emerging trends.

What types of businesses benefit most from strategic marketing services?

Any brand that is tired of "guessing" and ready to lead their industry. We work with everyone from industry leaders in tech looking to defend their territory to ambitious startups in finance ready to disrupt the market.

If you have a product or service worth talking about, you need a data-driven strategy to ensure the right people are listening.

When should a business invest in strategic marketing services?

The best time is before you spend your next dollar on ads. If your growth has plateaued, you’re launching a new product, or your current marketing efforts feel disconnected, it’s time to take a step back and build a proper roadmap. A strategic investment now prevents expensive mistakes later.
