Agency Register Tips

In the complex world of media, we wanted to ensure we ran a strong, competitive tender that would allow us to reach the best decision for our business in a timely fashion. Our internal expertise had gaps and so, we met with TrinityP3 to shape an engagement that augmented our own processes and helped along each step. With their critical IP and Ellie’s immense expertise, this engagement has delivered great value for us at each step. Ellie helped us run a comprehensive and fair process that respected the participants, allowed us to gather the information we needed, understand market insights and ultimately end up with a great partner. I would be happy to recommend Trinity P3 and gladly engage them again for future tenders.

We have a long-standing and productive relationship with our media agency, but after several changes on the agency side and looking to provide due diligence before continuing the relationship, we approached TrinityP3 to provide an independent market-based assessment of the current arrangement and relationship. Their commercial review approach provided us not only with the assessment we needed to continue comfortably, but also gave us a list of issues and actions to address both within our team and process and for the agency to provide improved media value and performance. It meant we could avoid the costly disruption of a tender process, and at the same time provide the organisation with robust evidence for the case of maintaining the status quo.

I have worked with Trinity P3 on several projects, the most recent being a full commercial review of an incumbent media partner. As a university we review large commercial contracts systematically, however, we needed to ensure we could do this without the disruption of a full pitch. We approached Trinity, because of the confidence we have in their knowledge and expertise in market. Within 6 weeks a full market review was carried out with written recommendations. The process created minimal disruption to the team and provided critical benchmarks and evaluations, which ultimately gave us confidence to negotiate and renew our partnership.

I enlisted the services of Trinity P3 to perform a financial benchmark on an advertising agency. Prior to this, I had already engaged the agency for a strategic project. Instead of going through a lengthy pitch process involving multiple agencies for the creative execution, I approached Nick and his team to conduct a cost benchmark. The resulting report and analysis were impressively thorough, providing valuable insights that helped me make well-informed decisions during negotiations. I wholeheartedly endorse Trinity P3 for their professionalism and dedication to delivering actionable results promptly.

We engaged Trinity P3 to conduct an efficient yet robust media agency selection process across ANZ markets. We had a tight brief and I’ll be honest, high expectations of a new media agency – in all, I can safely say that Trinity P3 enabled us to conduct a fast and fair process.

What was of particular value for us as a client was the nuance Trinity P3 presented in their benchmarking, their adaptable approach to the process we wished to run and finally, the overall commercial common sense they brought to the process. On this latter point, the contract and fee templates were very helpful to educate our internal teams, as it is often the case that there is no specific media services agreement to hand.

Where did we end up? With a new media agency that is right sized for our current stage of growth and a motivating, performance related fee model for our new media agency partner. This would not have been possible without the guidance of Stephen and the team at Trinity P3.

I engaged David Angell and the TrinityP3 team to assist Swinburne in leading a closed account review for the provision of media strategy, planning and buying services in 2022. We had a strong and highly productive relationship in place with the incumbent provider, however after five years we needed to benchmark the pricing and services, and I was also keen to gain feedback from both sides on what we could do to make the partnership even better.

TrinityP3 produced a comprehensive report, structured with clear, actionable insights, which enabled a very smooth contract renegotiation process. Due to the deep expertise and objectivity that TrinityP3 brought to the table, we were able to focus our efforts on the areas that needed attention, and ensure the new contract was fit for purpose, competitive and supported the growth of an already strong partnership – without the time, effort and cost of a full market process.

Thanks to David and team for their professionalism, integrity and expertise.

We partnered with Trinity P3 for a Digital Marketing tender process. They provided a robust and comprehensive evaluation of the digital landscape while providing invaluable insights and strategic advice along the process.

Anton and the team were great to collaborate with and a pleasure to work with and has set us up to deliver digital marketing excellence.

It’s easy to say ‘we couldn’t have done it without them’, but when it comes to building our brand campaign, we truly could not have done it without Lydia and the Trinity P3 team. What TrinityP3 does to orchestrate, facilitate and adjudicate across the entire agency selection and creative process is incredible. The value they add comes from completely understanding the desired outcome, curating an agency list that will get you there and working alongside you every step of the way to make it happen. They have seen everything there is to see and use their unrivalled experience to navigate you through what could be an arduous process.

TrinityP3 is a highly respected group of professionals, having them by your side keeps agencies on their toes, and gets you the best outcome. An investment in Trinity P3 is returned many times over.
