Things to Consider

Small team size means limited capacity for large concurrent projects or fast scaling requests
Senior staff may be stretched across multiple accounts, reducing dedicated attention per client
SEO results typically take 3-6 months to materialize, making this a poor fit for companies needing quick wins or immediate pipeline
Content-heavy approach requires significant client input and feedback cycles, which can slow delivery for teams without dedicated marketing resources
Paid media management fees can compound quickly alongside ad spend, making total cost of engagement higher than it initially appears
