Digital marketing services in New York
Brand strategy and positioning in New York
In New York, every category already has a famous name in it. Positioning is how a brand earns its own space next to them. We start every engagement with audience research, competitor mapping and a clear point of view on where the brand should sit, then build a growth roadmap the rest of the work is measured against.

Social media and influencer marketing in NYC
New York audiences set trends rather than follow them, and they move on fast. We build social strategy, content marketing and influencer partnerships around what the brand needs to achieve, then manage the channels day to day, planned alongside performance and commerce.

Video and photo production for New York brands
Campaign shoots, short-form social video, product photography and podcast production, planned and made by our own team. Creative is built for how it will be used, from a paid social ad to a homepage hero, and refreshed at the pace New York demands.

Performance marketing and PPC in New York
Paid social and paid search (PPC) built around a defined outcome, not ad spend. We run Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and Google Ads campaigns for New York brands with performance creative made in-house, measured against revenue, return on ad spend and cost per acquisition, with attribution set up before the first dollar is spent.

SEO and AI search visibility in New York
When New York customers search for what a brand sells, the brand needs to appear, on Google and in AI tools like ChatGPT and Google AI results. We handle technical SEO, local SEO across Manhattan and Brooklyn and multi-market SEO for brands that sell nationally, along with digital PR that builds authority.

Email marketing and CRM in New York
Acquisition wins the first order. Email, SMS and CRM decide whether the customer comes back. We build email and SMS programs in Klaviyo, set up the lifecycle flows that turn first orders into repeat customers, connect the CRM and run customer feedback, all measured against revenue and lifetime value, not open rates.

Website design and e-commerce in New York
A strong campaign is wasted on a site that does not convert. We design and build websites and e-commerce stores, run conversion rate optimization and UX audits, and fix the checkout and booking flows where brands most often lose revenue.

New York SoHo
A marketing agency built for New York City
New York is the most competitive market in North America for fashion, beauty and luxury. The world's biggest brands launch here, the press and creators who decide what matters live here, and the audience has seen every idea before. Being good is not enough. A brand needs a clear reason to be noticed and a plan to stay noticed.
It is a city of distinct markets. SoHo and Madison Avenue shoppers, Brooklyn's creative crowd, Upper East Side families and the commuters of New Jersey all need a different message. We plan targeting, messaging and search around who the customer actually is, borough by borough and neighborhood by neighborhood.
The calendar is packed. New York Fashion Week runs every February and September, the holiday season defines the retail year, and launches compete with a constant stream of press and culture. Media and content need to be planned around those moments, with budgets that can move when the city does.

Frequently asked questions
Questions brands ask before hiring a digital marketing agency in NYC.
-
A digital marketing agency plans and runs the work that grows a brand online: strategy, paid social and paid search, SEO, social media, content and production, email and CRM, and website or e-commerce work. At Bold x Collective, every engagement starts with strategy and is scoped to what the brand actually needs, so a New York fashion label and a New York wellness brand get very different plans.
-
Yes. Fashion and beauty are at the center of our work. We handle positioning, launches, creator campaigns, full-funnel performance and the production behind them. Recent work includes a K-beauty brand launch that sold out at Sephora and full-funnel performance for a heritage luxury watchmaker.
-
Yes. We run SEO and paid search as one connected strategy rather than two separate services. Paid search shows which New York search terms convert, and SEO builds lasting visibility for those same terms, so budget moves to what works and organic growth compounds over time.
-
Paid social, paid search and full-funnel campaigns built around a defined outcome, not ad spend. We set up tracking and attribution first, make performance creative with our own team, test continuously and report against revenue and cost per acquisition. When something is not working, we say so and change it.
-
Yes. Direct-to-consumer brands are a core part of our work. We build the full growth system a DTC brand needs: positioning, paid social and search, performance creative, conversion rate optimization on the store, and lifecycle email that turns first orders into repeat customers.
-
Strategy comes first in every engagement, not as an add-on. It shapes the audience research, positioning and roadmap that performance, content and every other service are built against. That is the difference between a campaign that is guessing and one that is not.
-
It depends on the brand, its stage and its goals. Strategy, production and website builds are project-based. Ongoing performance, search and social engagements run on a six-month minimum retainer, because growth compounds over time. Ad spend is always separate from the agency fee. We share pricing on a call once we understand what the brand needs.
-
Most marketing firms in New York will lead with a package. Look for one that starts with strategy instead. Ask how they measure success, whether they report against revenue or platform metrics, and who will actually work on your account. Check case studies in your category and reviews on Google and Clutch. The right agency challenges your brief and tells you what is not working, not just what you want to hear.
-
Yes. Influencer and creator partnerships are part of our social media service. We match New York brands with creators whose audience actually fits, plan content around a clear objective, and put the best-performing creator content to work in paid social so it earns beyond a single post.
-
Yes. As a social media marketing agency, we build the strategy, content calendar and editorial behind a brand's channels, then manage them day to day. Content marketing, short-form video and paid social are planned together, so the content that performs gets more reach.
