Bravado

Scope varies from firm to firm, so ask any full-service agency for a written list of the services it runs in-house. Bravado's LinkedIn specialties are sales, B2B sales, networking, referral sales, and communities. Its own description calls it a software development company, so confirm which services you would buy.

To check any agency's marketing scope, compare its written service list against the channels you need, such as paid media, content, or search. Bravado's LinkedIn specialties include no marketing channels, only sales, networking, and communities.

Rankings differ by source, so check any big five list for its method before relying on it. The directory's record has no ranking for Bravado, and LinkedIn lists its team at 11-50 people.

Ask any agency to walk you through its planning framework in writing, and check that each step connects to a result you can measure. The directory's record does not describe Bravado's framework. Its LinkedIn specialties are sales and communities, so ask how its framework applies to those.

The directory lists Bravado in San Francisco, CA. LinkedIn lists the firm as founded in 2017 with 11-50 employees. Ask who on that team would own your account.
