The agency model is being rewritten in real time.
A growing gap is emerging between those embracing artificial intelligence and those sticking with the status quo.
The most forward-thinking agencies aren’t simply adding AI to existing services. They’re reimagining what an agency can be, developing AI-powered systems, expanding into consulting, and finding entirely new ways to deliver strategy, creative, technology, and operations.
Below, we explore several emerging agency models and services, along with how they could help your business move forward.
Disclaimer: We’re featuring these agencies because they’re all MAICON (Marketing AI Conference) sponsors. They represent some of the interesting ways AI is expanding what’s possible in marketing. If any of these interest you, they will be onsite at MAICON in the expo hall to talk to you about your work, challenges, and opportunities.
