As an agency owner, what’s your first instinct when problems and challenges are presented to you? For many business owners that means personally jumping in to solve the problem from scratch. After all, that’s what #agencylife is all about right?
Not always. In many situations, building a customized solution from scratch to meet the specific demands of your clients can set you back. Your time and energy are better spent elsewhere. You want to focus on your strengths and find solutions to solve the weaknesses.
These are some of the pitfalls of creating your own solution:
- You are more likely to make mistakes that others before you have already made and mastered.
- You take yourself out of execution as you try to troubleshoot and figure out the how-tos.
- You spend too much money building tools and digital solutions that already exist, and are approved by the market.
You might be asking, “well how do I avoid these pitfalls?” This is where a white label solution comes to the rescue.
What is a white label solution?
A “white label solution” is a fully functional product or service that you can rebrand and resell as your own to clients, rather than building one yourself. You can then offer this white label solution as a recurring revenue stream for your agency.
What are the benefits of a white label solution?
If you are looking for ways to scale your agency and create recurring revenue without building out solutions from scratch, partnering with a white label provider is the smartest decision for your marketing agency.
Consider these points:
- Easy to rebrand and resell. White label marketing solutions are generally fully integrated and functional, which makes branding very easy. As a reseller, you don’t have to worry about product development and market research. You are simply adding a solution into your company’s arsenal, all that’s required of you is to put your brand on the product or service.
- Saves you time and money. Building a white label marketing solution from scratch takes a large amount of time and money, you could end up spending weeks and months without seeing significant results. When you work with a white label partner your return on investment is almost immediate.
- Increases revenue. More quality products and service offerings = more clients you appeal to.
- Increases company reputation and value. When you can offer various solutions to different problems, clients come to recognize you as “the company” within the niche.
- Keeps your clients happier. Your clients want to work with people they already like, know, and trust. The more solutions you offer, the more likely they will buy additional services from you to solve their problems.
- Allows you to focus on your core competency. The less time you spend on tasks that can be solved by other white label companies’ solutions = the more time you have to focus on what you do best, which directly leads to more growth.

VidPro- White Label Video Editing
Video is transforming how we consume content. While Youtube remains the undisputed king of video content, shorter form video platforms like TikTok are enticing Gen-Z and taking a large piece of the video media pie. Instagram - which is owned by Facebook - is also prioritizing video via its Reels feature.
All of this added exposure and engagement means the video is now a central part of content creation. Creating and editing that material, however, is time-consuming. A white label editing service can take at least some of that burden away.
Anyone who has ever edited a video will tell you that it can often take longer to edit than to film if you're not a pro who knows their short-cut keys. Companies like VidPro offer editing services with a 24-hour turnaround.

Shortlist - Building Authoritative Backlinks
Backlinks are an important part of gaining domain authority. In the early days of digital marketing, marketers would often attempt to place backlinks and where and everywhere they could. Google soon wised up to this practice and websites that used this practice was heavily penalized. It is now important to get backlinks to sites that are relevant to your own.
Ideally, you want the link to be on a page with a high page authority (PA) and on a site with a higher domain authority (DA). This sends 'link-juice' back to your own site and tells Google and other search engines that you are an authority in your niche.
Companies like Shortlist help you develop a reputable backlink profile by building contextual, ‘do follow’ links that will increase your search engine rankings and your site's traffic.
