How to Choose a Digital Marketing Agency or Freelancer in Bangkok: 7 Things to Check
Hiring someone to run your ads directly affects your sales, yet many business owners don’t know what to look for. After 13 years and more than 200 brands, here are the seven things I’d check before choosing an agency or freelancer in Bangkok.
1. The ad account must be yours
Your ad account, page and Pixel should be in your business’s name, and ad spend should be charged to your own card. If a provider insists on using their account, you can’t see real costs and you lose all your data when you leave.
2. Success is measured in sales, not likes
A good partner talks about messages, leads, bookings and sales — not just reach or likes. Ask exactly which numbers will define success.
3. Transparent, regular reporting
You should get a report at least monthly showing what was spent, what it delivered and what will change next month.
4. Experience and credentials
Check whether they are an official Meta or Google Partner and whether they have worked with businesses like yours. Ask for examples or client references.
5. Beware of guarantees
Nobody can guarantee sales or a number-one ranking. Fixed promises are a warning sign; a good expert explains the test period and the risks honestly.
6. Easy communication
You should be able to reach the person managing your account directly. Waiting days for answers costs opportunities and ad budget.
7. Start with a test period
- Begin with a small budget and a short term
- Agree on measurable goals together
- Review results before scaling
