Scoring explanation

Independent review proof remains limited in this pass.
Why recommended
Recommended for LA performance briefs where paid media and CRO need to be solved together.; Use Intensify for ecommerce and LA SEO/paid growth buyers who want case-study-led advertising and conversion growth support.
Why not recommended
Less suitable when third-party buyer-review depth is a hard procurement requirement.

Negotiation checklist for Intensify6 points

Use these before signing. Each point addresses a known pattern for vendors at this tier and size.

Ask for a 3-month pilot with explicit exit conditions before committing to a longer term — most agencies at this level will agree if scope is well-defined.
Require Testing roadmap access and any other proprietary platform access to be written into the contract scope — not offered as an optional add-on after onboarding.
Benchmark the retainer cost against two alternatives before accepting the first proposal — agencies at this budget tier typically have 15–25% pricing flexibility for well-scoped accounts.
Define month-1 deliverables explicitly in writing — retainer agreements are often left intentionally vague, which causes scope disputes after the 60-day honeymoon period.
Get a named account manager in the contract, not just a team. Request an SLA on response time (e.g. 24-hour business-day response) — verbal commitments don't hold after onboarding.
Ask for two references from clients in your specific industry vertical, not generic testimonials from a published library — call them directly and ask about communication and post-launch support.
