Real success stories

Leaders don't gamble on agencies twice.

ROJEK's culture screening to find the candidate agencies that would fit best with our team was equally as important to us as vetting agency partners that would bring great talent and skills. Their process saved us weeks, if not months, of our team's time.

FAQ

The questions leaders ask first.

Something else on your mind? Ask us directly — a senior advisor answers, not a bot.

How much do consulting services typically cost?

Every engagement is scoped to your objectives. You receive a written proposal with three action plans and a specific range of fees and expenses — before you sign a letter of agreement.

Do you offer any guarantees?

Engagements are delivered on time and on budget with no incremental costs, unless you proactively request an extension. Deliverables, timing and compensation are fixed in a Letter of Agreement.

Do agencies pay to participate in a search?

No. Agencies are never charged fees to participate in our client-funded search and review engagements — so recommendations stay objective and unbiased.

Who typically hires ROJEK?

Chief Marketing and Revenue Officers, procurement officers, C-suite leaders and business owners — anyone accountable for agency partnerships and the marketing investment behind them.
