In-House Social Media Employee or a Marketing Agency?
An in-house employee knows your business daily but rarely combines design, video, ads and tracking alone. An agency brings a multi-skilled team but needs good communication to understand your business. Many companies combine both: an employee for daily engagement and an agency for planning, production and ads.

| Employee | Agency | |
|---|---|---|
