An online research was conducted with over 230 company members of the Croatian Chamber of Commerce which showed their experiences with marketing agencies.

“About 20 percent of the companies have a dedicated marketing department, but most often it is a single person that deals with this part of the business. One in two companies plan some marketing budget, but it is optimistic that half of the small and 40% of the surveyed micro companies still plan to allocate marketing resources,” was stated in the research, adding that these budgets are distributed equally on promotional materials and services. Two-thirds of the companies are advertised in the media, primarily online (75 percent).

As a key benefit of the collaboration with marketing agencies, respondents singled out expertise, professionalism and knowledge (65%), followed by better visibility and promotion of products and services (50%), while 34% believe that outsourcing of marketing is positive because they don’t have the capacity to do it on their own.
