If your e-commerce business is looking for a digital marketing consultant or agency in the U.S. to help with content creation and distribution, here are three top-tier options worth serious consideration. I’ll give you the good + the potential caveats so you can decide if they’re a fit for your business.
1. Siege Media (USA)

Things to check / caveats:
Because they lean heavy on SEO & content strategy, if your focus is viral social media content or influencer-led distribution you may need additional support.
Their minimums could be higher (they reference $8K+ per month minimum in some cases) and longer contracts.

Since you run a digital marketing agency (SocialSurge), you’ll want clarity on scope: what you do in-house vs what they take over; avoiding overlap will matter.
Verdict: Strong pick if your goal is driving content that ranks, builds authority, and fuels traffic + conversions over time. If you’re after high-velocity social distribution or UGC for e-commerce, you might need to layer additional capabilities.
2. Online Optimism (USA)
6
Why they stand out:
Full‐service digital marketing agency – they cover content creation, social media, SEO, ads, etc.

Good track record in content creation + distribution: e.g., they have case studies of social media + content campaigns.

Located in New Orleans + remote, so potential flexibility and perhaps more competitive pricing than top-tier big agencies.
Things to check / caveats:
Because they are broader (not purely content specialist), you’ll want to ensure the team they assign has deep e-commerce/content + distribution chops (especially for your business).
Depending on your budget and ambition, you’ll want to confirm what “distribution” means (paid amplification, influencer + organic, multi-channel) and who owns it.
Make sure their process ties into your internal marketing agency (SocialSurge) – you’ll need clear definitions of responsibilities.
Verdict: Good fit for an e-commerce business that needs both content and distribution (social + SEO + ads) and wants an agency that can execute multiple tactics. Good mid-to-upper tier.
3. Column Five (USA)

Why they stand out:
They specialise in brand & content marketing (incl. storytelling, visuals, data-driven creative) – especially for B2B & consumer brands.

If you’re looking to build content assets that stand out visually + conceptually (infographics, video, interactive)—they have strong credentials.
Useful if part of your strategy is thought leadership, content as a differentiator, or high-end creative.
Things to check / caveats:
Their focus may lean more creative/brand than pure volume + distribution + performance. For an e-commerce business that needs scale, you might need to combine them with a premium distribution/paid focus.
Costs may be higher and timeline longer for creative assets rather than “quick roll-out” content.
If your main goal is rapid e-commerce conversion via content and amplification, ensure they have performance‐driven KPIs, not just “pretty creative”.
Verdict: Solid choice if you want to elevate your brand via content (not just convert today), build something distinctive that also serves distribution. If your priority is rapid growth via high-volume content + distribution, may need to partner additional support.
My recommendation for you (given your profile: you run a digital marketing agency, you have e-commerce business)
Decide first what your priority is:
A. Build a content engine that ranks + converts (SEO + evergreen content)
B. Ramp up content volume + distributed through socials + ads (UGC, short-form video)
C. Elevate brand with high-end storytelling assets + premium distribution
Once you pick which of A/B/C (or mix), pick the agency that aligns with the dominant need.
Since you already run a marketing agency (SocialSurge), treat this as a partner not just vendor: clarify roles, responsibilities, output, KPIs.
Ask for case studies relevant to e-commerce + content distribution (not just awareness).
Ensure you get distribution strategy: creating content is just half; getting it in front of your target audience is the other half. Many agencies create content but leave distribution weak.
If you like, I can pull together a longer list (5-10 agencies) that specialise specifically in e-commerce content creation + distribution (so you can pick 3-5 to interview) — would that be helpful?
