Have you published case studies showing results for media, financial, cannabis, and e-commerce clients, and can we view the specific metrics?
Catalyst lists published case studies on its homepage for all four requested verticals: a nonprofit media outlet (media), a fintech startup reaching institutional investors (financial), SōRSE Technology (cannabis), and a nationally recognized wine and spirits eCommerce brand (e-commerce). However, the retrieved chunks from the dedicated case study detail pages do not contain specific performance metrics or quantitative results; those pages appear as thin, fragmented content with image placeholders, video tags, and incomplete sections in the crawl.
Fully render or expand the dedicated case study detail pages in the crawler so that results sections, metrics, and quantitative outcomes are captured as plain text instead of image placeholders and video tags.

What is the minimum monthly retainer or project budget required to start an engagement with your agency?
The site does not list a single universal minimum engagement size. Service-specific monthly retainer minimums start around $3,500/month for communications and social media management, and around $4,000/month for SEO-focused digital marketing programs. Multi-channel digital marketing campaigns start around $8,000/month, and comprehensive communications programs start around $7,000/month. The site notes that branding engagements often begin as project-based work, but no minimum project budget is specified.
Add a dedicated pricing page or FAQ that lists both a universal minimum engagement size and minimum project budgets for project-based work, rather than scattering service-specific ranges across channel pages.

Do you sign NDAs and maintain SOC 2, ISO 27001, or equivalent data security certifications for client information?
Catalyst signs mutual NDAs for every engagement to protect client business data. However, none of the retrieved website chunks mention SOC 2, ISO 27001, or equivalent data security certifications. One chunk discusses general GDPR and CCPA compliance and regular audits for integrated marketing agencies, but does not specify Catalyst's own security certifications.
Add a dedicated security, trust, or compliance page that explicitly states whether Catalyst holds SOC 2, ISO 27001, or equivalent certifications, or clearly communicates its security posture and audit status.

Is a dedicated account manager assigned to every client, and how many hours of senior leadership oversight are included each month?
The site does not explicitly state whether every client is assigned a dedicated account manager, nor does it specify how many hours of senior leadership oversight are included each month. However, it notes that engagements typically include "person to person check ins," "service-level managers," and "managed services" with "ongoing integration" intended to make the agency a "functional part of your team" rather than an outside vendor.
Add a dedicated FAQ or service page that explicitly states whether every client receives a dedicated account manager and details the amount of senior leadership oversight included each month.

Do we retain full intellectual property rights to all creative assets and campaign data after the contract ends, or is there a licensing restriction?
For branding services, Catalyst states that upon final payment, clients receive complete ownership and usage rights to all brand assets, including source files, various file formats, and unrestricted rights to use, modify, and reproduce branding across any medium. However, the site does not specify whether these terms apply to all creative assets produced under other service lines (e.g., out-of-home, influencer campaigns), nor does it address ownership of campaign data after a contract ends. The Terms & Conditions page only covers Catalyst’s own website and service intellectual property, not client work product.
Add a dedicated client IP and data ownership page, or expand the Terms & Conditions or a services FAQ to clarify post-contract rights for all creative assets and campaign data.

How many weeks does your typical onboarding process take when transitioning from a previous agency, and what assets must we provide upfront?
Catalyst's website mentions onboarding across services but does not specify how many weeks onboarding takes when transitioning from a previous agency. It notes that existing assets are assessed during content strategy research, yet it does not list specific upfront assets required when switching from another agency.
Add a dedicated FAQ or onboarding guide for clients transitioning from another agency that states the typical onboarding duration in weeks and lists required upfront assets such as brand files, account credentials, and historical performance data.

Do you offer month-to-month billing, or are all engagements locked into annual contracts with upfront payment?
The site lists monthly retainer pricing (communications: $3,500–$12,000+/month; digital marketing: $4,000–$15,000+/month) and mentions flexible pricing models including monthly retainers, project-based fees, or performance-based pricing, but it does not specify whether engagements are month-to-month or locked into annual contracts with upfront payment.
Add a dedicated FAQ or pricing page section that explicitly states contract terms (month-to-month vs. annual) and payment schedule requirements.

5 of 15. Answered with enough specificity for a buyer to act on. This is the bar the queue above is chasing.
Do you offer branding, content marketing, digital marketing, communications, and out-of-home services, or is any major channel excluded from your engagements?
Yes. Catalyst offers all five services: branding, content marketing, digital marketing, communications, and out-of-home. These are listed as core channel offerings across the site, and the case study filters list exactly these five channels, suggesting no major channel is excluded. Note that out-of-home is provided only as part of integrated marketing campaigns, not as standalone placements.

Do you accept clients in startup, B2B, SMB, nonprofit, and government sectors, or are there verticals you explicitly do not serve?
Catalyst accepts clients in all five sectors. Its case studies page lists B2B Marketing, Government Marketing, Nonprofit Marketing, SMB Marketing, and Startup Marketing as use-case filters. The FAQ states the team has deep experience across consumer-, government-, business-, and academic-facing organizations and focuses on a client’s stage of organizational growth rather than a particular niche. No verticals that Catalyst explicitly does not serve are mentioned.

Are clients required to adopt your project management and analytics tools, or can your team work within our existing MarTech stack?
Clients are not required to adopt Catalyst’s own project management and analytics tools. The agency states that its collaboration strategies are ‘based on your existing collaborative ecosystemes’ and generally include chat, project management, and check-ins using the client’s preferred tools. The site repeatedly emphasizes that the team ‘embeds into your existing workflow’ and ‘sit within clients' existing workflows, delivering marketing services without adding friction.’ Additionally, Catalyst’s capabilities page says it helps clients ‘leverage today's most advanced marketing tools and platforms,’ indicating they work within a client's existing MarTech stack rather than requiring a switch to proprietary tools.

Do you maintain physical offices in Seattle, New York City, and San Jose, and do you support clients located outside those markets?
Yes. Catalyst maintains physical offices in Seattle at 1700 7th Ave, Ste 2100 (its headquarters), in New York City at 515 Madison Ave, Fl 8, and in San Jose at 196 N 3rd St. The company supports clients located outside those markets: it describes itself as a national marketing services agency, serves clients throughout the United States and Canada, and routinely works with clients and agency partners around the world.

Do you provide real-time performance dashboards, or is ROI reporting limited to monthly static documents and scheduled calls?
Catalyst provides real-time performance dashboards and does not limit ROI reporting to monthly static documents. Their FAQ states that standardized reporting is “delivered via a live dashboard or monthly report as part of our managed services offering,” and their digital marketing services page notes that clients receive “monthly reports showing performance trends, competitive benchmarking, and ROI analysis.”
