What IS a new business agency?
A new business agency specializes in helping other companies acquire new clients or customers. They focus on driving growth by identifying potential leads, nurturing them, and converting them into clients.
These agencies often assist companies in industries like advertising, PR, marketing, tech, and consulting, where client acquisition can be a complex, relationship-based process.
Their services can include market research, lead generation, business development strategy, content creation, email campaigns, and social media management to increase a business's visibility and attractiveness to prospective clients.
Manifest is one of the leading new business agencies in the UK with a reputation second to none.
What size clients typically engage a new business agency?
Manifest has clients of all sizes, from startups to some of the largest agencies in the world.
What is the value of a typical win from a new business agency?
At Manifest, we prioritise targeting prospects who are likely to generate our clients a revenue stream of in excess of £100,000 per year.
How should a new business agency be measured?
We believe that a new business agency should be judged on the value of the opportunities it creates for its clients.
Manifest has, however, been around long enough to know typical conversion rates and will happily provide an estimate of the number of meetings we would likely be able to arrange prior to engagement.
Does Manifest create content?
No but if you need content we have an agency that specialises in creating content for agencies that we would work with to help you with this requirement.
Does Manifest handle pitches for brands?
Being both gamekeeper and poacher feels somewhat incongruous to us and we are not comfortable with the potential conflict of interest.
What is special about Manifest?
Our business development leads (the people who represent our clients to the market) are all seasoned ex-agency professionals so they can talk the talk as well as walk the walk.
The ultimate proof of this is that many of our clients have their BDL participate in the meetings we arrange; others even trust us so much that they delegate first meetings to us and for some we even develop opportunities within their existing clients.
Where does Manifest operate?
Worldwide; although the methods used vary enormously from region to region.
