Here are some unique name suggestions for a digital marketing agency:

You should keep in mind that the name should be easy to pronounce, memorable, and it should not have any negative connotations with other companies or people.

 

After choosing a name, our team of experts will conduct deep research on the selected names. This is to ensure that the company name is available to register and is not infringing any trademark.

 

Step 3 - Choose the Business Structure

 

There are many types of business structures which you can choose from when starting a digital marketing agency. 

 

You can register it as a sole proprietorship or partnership firm if you plan to start small or as a side business.

 

But, if you have plans to target a wider customer base then you can apply for a Private Limited Company Registration Online, Limited Liability Company (LLP) or One Person Company (OPC). 

 

Step 4 - Share Documents

 

The next step is sharing the mandatory documents and information with your assigned to move forward with the registration process.

 

For this purpose, you must provide the following documents:

 

• Rent Agreement/NOC of the Business Premises
• Utility Bill
• Passport-size Photo of Directors
• Aadhar Card
• PAN Card
• Signature

 

Once you have shared your documents, our experts will verify them and proceed with the process. 

 

Step 5 - DSC and DIN Registration

 

If you are registering your digital marketing agency as a Pvt Ltd Company, LLP or OPC, your assigned will apply for the DSC and DIN registration.

 

DSC is a digital signature certificate mandatory for anyone who is to be the director of a company.

 

Similarly, DIN is a Directors Identification Number allotted by the MCA. It is required for opening bank accounts, filing taxes, and other legal processes.

 

Step 6 - Drafting and Reviewing MoA and AoA

 

After that, our experts will prepare the other mandatory documents like MoA (Memorandum of Association) and AoA (Article of Association).

 

The Memorandum of Association is a document that outlines the company’s goals and objectives.

 

Following are the sample objectives to include in the MoA of the Digital Marketing Agency:

 

Sample 1 

 

To carry on the business of Resellers and Distribution Activities, Digital Marketing Services, Artificial intelligence, machine learning, and smart things which includes but is not limited to IT Product and Software Sales, Domain Registration and Hosting Services, System Integrators for Providing Partner Services, Search Engine Optimization, Search Engine Marketing, Social Media Marketing, Content Marketing, Email Marketing, Programmatic Media Buying for Digital Campaigns, Video Campaigns, Artificial Intelligence (AI) & Advanced Machine Learning, Intelligent Apps, Intelligent Things Virtual & Augmented Reality, Conversational Systems.

The AoA is an agreement that defines the relationship between the company and its shareholders. 

 

It also outlines how the company will be run - from who is in charge of what, to how decisions are made.

 

After preparing these documents, your RM will share them with you to review them. Thus, if you require any changes we will modify it for you.

 

Step 7 - Filing the Application

 

The next step is filling out the application on the official portal of MCA (Ministry of Corporate Affairs).

 

Our experts will file and submit the application carefully, making sure that all the information and documents attached are correct. 

 

Meanwhile, we will keep in touch with authorities and respond to queries (if any raised).

 

It takes approx 9-12 days to receive the Company Registration Certificate. 

 

Once your digital marketing agency is registered, proceed with the next step.

 

Step 8 - Apply for Domain Name and Social Media Handles

 

Social media handles and domain names are a crucial part of branding for any business. 

 

It might seem like a small detail but it’s important to have your own domain name and social media handles to have a professional brand.

 

You can either use the same name as your company or you can choose something different. 

 

You also need to register on social media channels such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram and so on.

 

Some of the benefits of applying for the domain name and social media handles are:

 

• Your company will be more professional looking with its own domain name.
• It will be easier to promote yourself on social media platforms.
• You will get more clients because people will know who you are.
• You can create a personal connection with the audience and help in the long-term success of the company. 
• Ensures that your brand gets all the attention it deserves.
