If you have been working with a specific DRTV agency for a while or are considering working with a new one there are quite a few things you should keep in mind before making a decision. It is incredibly important to evaluate your DRTV agency, even if you have been happy with their past performance, to ensure you are getting your money's worth and that your product is being marketed in the best possible way. Consider the following points and find out the answers from a variety of DRTV agency companies so you can compare.

Services
The first thing to ask a new DRTV agency or even your old one is whether or not your DRTV agency offers all the services you require. In fact, if you have been working with a particular DRTV agency find out if they offer any more services than you are currently receiving. Find out what other DRTV agency services look like, too.

Mission Statement
Another interesting thing you need to know about your DRTV agency and any prospective agencies is their mission statement. Basically, you need to know what business philosophy they have and how they conduct business. Learning this information up front may prove very helpful in deciding on the right DRTV agency for your product and market.

Experience
Remember that it does not matter how much overall direct marketing experience a DRTV agency has. What matters is how much experience they have marketing products similar to yours to your target market. IF the DRTV agency is experienced with your niche and target market then you may have found the right DRTV agency for you.

Campaign
Before finding a DRTV agency you should do some research and find out if the agencies you are considering are capable of managing all of your campaign or only parts of it. Many times a DRTV agency will manage a portion of the campaign and you will have to figure out how to manage the rest. There are, however, some DRTV agencies that are experienced and knowledgeable enough to manage the entire campaign. Overall, that is the most desirable.

Success
Something else to ask a potential DRTV agency is what their plan is to make your product successfully sell through DRTV. If they have a detailed answer that appears to be well thought out and sound then you may have found a good DRTV agency for your product and market. If they "need to get back to you on that" then you should probably move on.
