Amanda Vega Consulting can be described in many different ways depending on which of our customers or competitors you ask. Many know us as one of the oldest social media management providers in the country. Many of us got our start at some of the first dotcoms managing chat rooms and forums. This was social media before it had its name. Others will tell you that we are a public relations shop due to our New York office has a knack for major coups in placements such as “Oprah” and the “Today Show.” Many people think of us as an interactive agency, especially the big traditional ad agencies for whom we provide behind the scenes social media services. The truth is that Amanda Vega Consulting is a full-service marketing consultancy. We provide business consulting, web site development, search engine optimization, social media, marketing, advertising, and public relations services. But there’s something different here. We are consultants, not generalists.
We do things a bit differently around here. We don’t fight over internal budgets between teams, and we don’t assign newbies to any account, ever. We don’t chase the most profitable dollar in lieu of doing what’s best for the client. We have successfully managed a team of over 200 in 15 countries and 4 languages making us truly global. Coined as the "anti-agency" by many, our team is a group of specialists in their fields. We work to provide clients with the best solutions to their business needs even if it means recommending partner agencies or contractors. While we have no industry specific requirements, we do have special affection for the luxury space, organics, alternative energy, pharmaceutical, anything teen and tween related, complex e-commerce companies, shoes (of course), and an equal love for Fortune 500 companies as well as start-ups.
Our approach is a bit more abrasive than most firms, but it comes with tremendous results. Would you rather have fancy foam boards or more revenue to your bottom line? At the end of the day, we service clients directly in the areas of public relations, social media, and online marketing and consulting. Half of our clients include the top ad agencies of the world. These agencies appreciate the value of our interactive and social media expertise and continue to plug us in behind the scenes to implement social media the right way. We believe there are advantages to our various locations. NY is the best place to have a public relations team court national media. There are also advantages to our business model. We hire experts for each project, and they work with the core team to give our clients the best of breed every time. And there certainly is value to having been here longer than most. Seventeen years in interactive is no joke, and it comes with a lot of knowledge, (and a huge team of mommy bloggers and other SMEs all over the world that love us). So, come check it out.
