Supplier Management for Marketing and PR Agencies
Marketing and PR agencies thrive on creativity, speed, and responsiveness — but behind the scenes, a long list of suppliers keeps the wheels turning.
From freelancers and media contacts to software platforms, print partners, and research tools — without strong supplier management, it’s easy for things to get messy.
Here’s what that looks like:
Scattered supplier info and ad hoc processes
Each team uses their own contacts, terms, and tools — which leads to duplication, inconsistent service, and confusion when someone’s on leave.
Time lost on routine admin Briefing documents, contracts, and onboarding forms are often created from scratch — over and over again.
Untracked spend and uncontrolled renewals
Without a central view, subscriptions auto-renew, fees vary, and project margins quietly erode.
Here’s what better supplier management brings:
Standardised briefing and onboarding templates
Centralised supplier contact and contract tracking
Clear approval and review cycles
Less admin, more billable time
Creative teams don’t need more admin, they need the right structure behind the scenes to keep projects moving and clients happy.
