Since 1990, SCOPEN has been evaluating and identifying the trailblazing companies that are transforming the creative economy with innovative solutions, unique strategic visions and creative executions that realise tangible results, according to the media company. 

To facilitate an advertising and media industry that prioritises business transformation through impactful creativity, SCOPEN conducts annual analytical studies based on rigorous methodologies. 

EssenceMediacom says the goal is to both inspire and inform the industry by publishing the results of in-depth intelligence across areas of communication, marketing and advertising. Simultaneously, the industry can gain essential learnings on identified needs, marketplace dynamics and future trends. 

One such study is the Agency Scope, which is published bi-annually by SCOPEN and based on extensive, qualitative interviews with high-level decision-makers. The result is a solid understanding of the advertiser-agency relationship, adds EssenceMediacom. 

High ratings for performance, production and programmatic 

The media company says that as the country's newest and largest agency committed to delivering breakthroughs for brands, it is no surprise that EssenceMediacom's commitment to disruption, innovation and analytics secured impressive results in the SCOPEN study.

EssenceMediacom received the number one position for the following attributes:

  • digital capabilities
  • helps clients in sustainability / brand purpose
  • good creation and production of branded content
  • strong capabilities in programmatic, and 
  • good service performance.

Furthermore, EssenceMediacom was in the top six media agencies for attributes such as:

  • having good research tools and data science, together with good application of market and consumer insights.

A professional team, good day-to-day problem-solving skills, good research skills and SEO services were also among these identified, according to the media company. 

Of these results, Claudelle Naidoo, CEO of EssenceMediacom, says, "We have always prided ourselves on having symbiotic relationships with clients, where there is a shared mission to produce work that speaks to consumers in a real and authentic way."
