Strong — 4 of 5 on this rubric’s scale, from Poor (1) to Excellent (5). This dimension carries 23% of the total score.

Benchmark — across the 61 other agencies evaluated in this discipline, this dimension runs Excellent 10 · Strong 31 · Adequate 16 · Weak 4. The typical agency here scores Strong, and 10 of them score higher than this one.

What this dimension measures: The primary reason to hire a production agency. Look for a body of work that is current, attributable and recognisable, with named clients whose brands carry real standards. Competent, generic output scores 3. Where reviewers independently credit narrative or storytelling ability rather than just delivery, weight that: turning a complex proposition into something clear is the hard part of this job.

Scores high — Distinctive, consistently high-quality output for demanding clients scores 4-5.

Scores low — A portfolio dominated by work more than two years old scores 2 — the team that made it has usually moved on.

What we found — Named case-study clients — Accelerant, Chargebee, Branch, BrightInsight, BetterUp, DocuSign, McGraw Hill, Sintavia — plus Amazon, Google, Bayer and McKesson as logos. A credible B2B and enterprise mix, though all of it is self-published. That is the high band above, which is why it scored Strong.

On the record — “Named case-study clients include Accelerant, Chargebee, Branch, BrightInsight, BetterUp, DocuSign, McGraw Hill and Sintavia.” yumyumvideos.com ↗

B2B — business-to-business: selling to companies rather than consumers — longer deals, more decision-makers.

Evidence: vendor stated — the agency’s own claim, recorded as theirs rather than ours.

Strong — 4 of 5 on this rubric’s scale, from Poor (1) to Excellent (5). This dimension carries 19% of the total score.

Benchmark — across the 61 other agencies evaluated in this discipline, this dimension runs Excellent 6 · Strong 21 · Adequate 4 · Weak 30. The typical agency here scores Adequate, and 6 of them score higher than this one.

What this dimension measures: Score scope clarity alongside price: a vendor that states plainly what it does NOT do — no shoots, no strategy, animation only — is more useful than one implying it does everything, and should not be penalised for the boundary itself.

Scores high — Published prices, published ranges by video type, or fixed productized packages score 4-5, and an all-inclusive fee that covers script, music, narration and revisions scores at the top of that band because the quoted number is then the real number.

Scores low — Ranges given only on request score 2-3. Bespoke-only quoting with no public anchor scores 1-2.

What we found — A working estimator returning banded ranges from $6,000 to $62,000 that vary by video type, quantity and script need. Held below Excellent because the bands are wide and several project types still route to a bespoke proposal. That is the high band above, which is why it scored Strong.

On the record — “A self-serve estimator publishes banded price ranges of $6,000-$15,000, $12,000-$30,000, $15,000-$40,000, $20,000-$50,000 and $25,000-$62,000, varying by video type, quantity and script need.” yumyumvideos.com ↗

Adequate — 3 of 5 on this rubric’s scale, from Poor (1) to Excellent (5). This dimension carries 14% of the total score.

Benchmark — across the 61 other agencies evaluated in this discipline, this dimension runs Excellent 9 · Strong 29 · Adequate 19 · Weak 4. The typical agency here scores Strong, and 38 of them score higher than this one.

What this dimension measures: Video projects fail on coordination far more often than on craft. Look for a described process, named collaboration tooling, defined approval gates, and independent reports of on-time delivery.

Scores high — Reviewers consistently citing clear communication and structured workflow score 4-5.

Scores low — No described process and no reviewer commentary scores 2-3. A vendor whose reviews mention schedule slippage or unresponsive periods scores 1-2 on verified evidence.

What we found — The only described sequence is the estimator's own — goal, video type, quantity, script needs, contact. That is a scoping funnel. No production process, approval gates, revision structure or named collaboration tooling. That is between the two bands, which is why it scored Adequate.

On the record — “A self-serve estimator publishes banded price ranges of $6,000-$15,000, $12,000-$30,000, $15,000-$40,000, $20,000-$50,000 and $25,000-$62,000, varying by video type, quantity and script need.” yumyumvideos.com ↗

funnel — the path from stranger to customer — awareness at the top, purchase at the bottom. “Full-funnel” means owning the whole path, not one stage.

Adequate — 3 of 5 on this rubric’s scale, from Poor (1) to Excellent (5). This dimension carries 14% of the total score.

Benchmark — across the 61 other agencies evaluated in this discipline, this dimension runs Excellent 8 · Strong 32 · Adequate 18 · Weak 3. The typical agency here scores Strong, and 40 of them score higher than this one.

What this dimension measures: What the agency can actually produce: live action, animation (2D/3D), motion graphics, studio versus location, and the format and aspect-ratio coverage needed for where the video will run. Animation-only vendors in particular cannot serve briefs that need people on camera, and that should be stated in the verdict rather than discovered later.

Scores high — Both live action and animation, across multiple formats, scores 4-5.

Scores low — A single modality scores 2-3 — not a defect, but a real ceiling that the buyer must match against the brief.

What we found — The estimator varies price by video type, which implies a range of formats, but the types themselves were not enumerated on the pages read and live-action capability was not established. That is between the two bands, which is why it scored Adequate.

Evidence: inferred — our reading of indirect evidence, not a documented fact.

Weak — 2 of 5 on this rubric’s scale, from Poor (1) to Excellent (5). This dimension carries 10% of the total score.

Benchmark — across the 61 other agencies evaluated in this discipline, this dimension runs Strong 7 · Adequate 6 · Weak 48. The typical agency here scores Weak, and 13 of them score higher than this one.

What this dimension measures: Who owns the final file, the raw footage and the project files, and for how long the music, stock and talent licences run. This is where video differs most sharply from design: a licence that expires, or talent usage limited by term and territory, can make a video unusable in year two.

Scores high — Explicit ownership transfer with stated licence terms scores 4-5.

Scores low — Finals-only delivery scores 2. Silence scores 2 and should be raised before contracting, since retrospective clearance is expensive.

What we found — Nothing located on ownership of raw footage or project files, or on music, stock and talent licence duration. That is what the low band describes, which is why it scored Weak.

Evidence: inferred — our reading of indirect evidence, not a documented fact.

Weak — 2 of 5 on this rubric’s scale, from Poor (1) to Excellent (5). This dimension carries 10% of the total score.

Benchmark — across the 61 other agencies evaluated in this discipline, this dimension runs Excellent 4 · Strong 27 · Adequate 7 · Weak 23. The typical agency here scores Strong, and 38 of them score higher than this one.

What this dimension measures: Stated timelines from brief to delivery, and how far out the agency books.

Scores high — Fixed, published timelines score 4-5.

Scores low — Multi-month cycles are normal for high-end work and score 2-3 — score the honesty of the estimate rather than the length, since a realistic twelve weeks beats an optimistic four. Undisclosed scheduling scores 2.

What we found — The two published time commitments — an estimate in under 60 seconds and a response within 24 hours — are both sales responsiveness. No production timeline from brief to delivery is stated anywhere. That is what the low band describes, which is why it scored Weak.

On the record — “The published time commitments are an estimate in under 60 seconds and a response within 24 hours — both pre-sales, not production.” yumyumvideos.com ↗

Stronger here: Epipheo scores Excellent on the same dimension.

Weak — 2 of 5 on this rubric’s scale, from Poor (1) to Excellent (5). This dimension carries 10% of the total score.

Benchmark — across the 61 other agencies evaluated in this discipline, this dimension runs Excellent 9 · Strong 15 · Adequate 14 · Weak 23. The typical agency here scores Adequate, and 38 of them score higher than this one.

What this dimension measures: Volume and recency of independent, verified reviews. Low weight deliberately — in this category a portfolio is more informative than a review count, and several excellent production shops have almost no review footprint because their work arrives by referral.

Scores low — A substantial base on a verification-requiring platform scores 4-5; a handful of reviews scores 2-3; none located scores 2.

What we found — No Clutch or G2 profile, review count or third-party rating located from the pages read.

Evidence: inferred — our reading of indirect evidence, not a documented fact.
