What Can You Expect From A SilverDisc Account Manager?

When you’re looking for a new agency or supplier – whether for your digital marketing or other business services – it can be difficult to make a final decision on who to go with. Sometimes knowing more about the service you will receive and the processes involved in working together can help you to take the plunge. We’d like to take some time here to explain who our account managers are, how we communicate with our clients, and the ins and outs of the services we provide. Read on to find out what you can expect from your SilverDisc account manager when you work with us.

Who We Are

Our account managers come from a range of backgrounds, both agency-side and client-side – to put it simply, we’ve been there and done it.

A key benefit of working with our agency account managers is that you aren’t simply hiring one person, but a whole team. Our clients don’t have one single person working on their account; there’s always a team of people, each with their own digital marketing strengths and knowledge, who work collaboratively to provide the best service.

How We Communicate

Here at SilverDisc, we’re keen to work closely with clients, becoming less of a supplier and more of a partner operating as an extension of your business. We take the time to understand your company, how you operate and how your brand positions itself within your industry. Everyone in our team is a firm believer in sharing knowledge and educating clients, too. Digital marketing isn’t a book of secrets – we’re honest and open when working with clients, to enable them to understand our world as much as we aim to understand theirs.

We’re comfortable communicating with clients across a variety of mediums, ensuring we’re working together every step of the way. Whether it’s online using Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams or face to face meetings either at our SilverDisc office or at your offices, we’re flexible to work to your needs. Even in this new world of remote working, we’re only ever an email or phone call away if you need us, using VOIP systems to ensure we’re able to speak with you on the phone whether we’re working at home or in the office.

We also invite marketing clients to use the task management system Asana, working collaboratively on website and marketing work to ensure that everyone is on the same page. In this way, our marketing strategies progress smoothly to help clients achieve their digital marketing goals. This helps to keep communication and tasks in one single place, ensuring everyone can see what work is planned and ongoing at a glance, without worrying about tasks falling by the wayside in long-lost emails.

What We Do

Our account managers work hard to take the aims and requirements of our clients, organising them with our various in-house teams and ensuring the output delivers results.

What We Report

We’re a results-driven agency by design and, as part of our account management work, we provide ongoing reporting to show you the value we’re driving for your business digitally. Whether it’s a top-level report for your board meetings or highly-detailed reports for your in-house analysts, we shape our reporting around you. This can be done weekly, monthly or even ad hoc as and when you need data for internal meetings, decision making and more.
