You have to watch out for some of those industry lists. Their top agencies are the ones who paid to be on the list. If you get your firm listed there, you’d better hope your potential clients remain in the dark, because if they figure it out, the only people getting anything out of the listing are the ones who publish the list.

qwerty, what you describe sounds less like a list and more like advertising. If the work delivered is high quality, do clients really care where their vendors advertise? (as long as it’s not spammy)

I’m talking about advertising that pretends to be a list of top firms based on merits other than advertising budgets.
