Have social media agencies lost the plot?

#Socialmedia has come off age and confidently occupies a prominent position in the #marketing #communications mix.

Social media natives are becoming commonplace and their valuable innate understanding of the sector and unique skillset are vital ingredients for the talent pool of Team Marketing.

Social media agencies however may not be as indispensable to the future of marketing communications as they had been thus far.

#PR agencies have for long now been evolving onboard the social media bandwagon recruiting Generation Y talent - #Millennials – for newly created social media roles plugged in existing PR teams.

Integrated set ups are doing the same offering clients holistic strategies across every stakeholder touch point which complement each other to enhance the impact on customer engagement. 
  
Ironically, in a future where digital dominates, standalone social media agencies don’t seem to possess this little bit of extra, exclusive or cutting edge to help them maintain their relevance.


Am I wrong?
