Choosing a new B2B marketing agency isn't a simple journey. But deciding on the reasons not to work with an agency can be - or so it seems. Alfie Dawson explore the 6 reasons you won't need Bordeaux & Burgundy's expertise in your tool kit.
6 Reasons Not To Work With Us
We get it. You’re at the top of your game. That’s great! We are on the side of marketing departments and cheer on your success. But we’re nothing if not thorough, so check yourself against these six reasons not to work with us. Seriously – if you score 6/6, we really, truly, cannot help you.
You have all the growth you need
Every target you’ve set, you’ve crushed. Board meetings feel like victory laps, and you’ve stopped prepping because – let’s face it – they adore you. You’ve hit a flow state. You are golden. Honestly, you don’t even know where to go up from here; you’ve smashed through the ceiling and are orbiting somewhere near Mars.
You are the next Steve Jobs
If you’re the next Steve Jobs, Henry Ford, or Bill Gates, you don’t need us. You don’t need anyone. You’re already rewriting the playbook.
You are uniquely differentiated
You’re the Cola-Cola of SaaS. The undisputed market leader. Your brand is so strong that your sales team doesn’t have to explain what sets you apart. You can leave your logo off all your ads, and people will still know who you are – your name carries all the weight. The competition? Just background noise at this point.
You have every resource you could ever need
Design? Covered. Copy? Best in the industry. Operations, paid ads, OOH, content, reports? Sorted. If your next marketing campaign involved launching a satellite into orbit, you wouldn’t need to make a single hire.
You have no new go-to-market initiatives
New territories? Nope. Fresh products? Not on the roadmap. ABM strategies? You’re good. More isn’t always better. Why disrupt what’s working when you’ve already nailed the formula?
Your audience sees your product as a “must-have”
Your audience cannot live without you. Your sales team is basically on an extended Caribbean retreat, checking in for an hour a day – and still hitting their numbers. Not because they’re sales wizards, but because your product is non-negotiable in the market.
Brutal B2B honesty…
Going back to the original question: Does this sound like you? If it does, congratulations. You’ve reached the summit.
But here’s the thing – marketing is never ‘done’. Growth isn’t just about hitting targets; it’s about what comes next. Staying ahead. Adapting. Pushing beyond “good enough”. Because in marketing, standing still is the fastest way to fall behind.
A great agency doesn’t just execute advertising campaigns or deliver whitepaper pdfs. It challenges, refines, and ensures that every project is aligned to your businesses long-term success. The best agencies aren’t just service providers; they’re strategic partners who care about your brand as much as you do. That means telling you the truth, even if it means reducing spend or shifting priorities. Because the goal isn’t just to deliver a service – it’s to keep your business moving forward.
That’s where we come in. We’re the kind of B2B marketing agency that acts as a true partner. We’ll take care of your business and brand as fiercely as you do. If you’re looking for the kind of partnership that challenges your thinking to help you reach that next level, we should talk.
