Describe your business model to them and leave the rest of the preparation phase to them . This way you can make sure that the agency understands you. Sometimes only two meetings are enough - in one you present your goals and expectations, in the second the agency presents you with proposed solutions.
The 1st SOS agency mainly employs immigrants from Mexico and Latin America. It turns out that many of them only speak broken English, so the website needs to be simple and clear, as they don't understand some words.

When an agency presents you with a pre-launch, ask how the proposed solution meets your goals. The most common question we heard was, “Hey guys, can’t it be done easier?”
That's why we designed the perfect form for job seekers together . In the Czech Republic, this would be a real user hell. In our case, however, this form serves the purpose perfectly. It is structured very similarly to the visa business owner database application that all immigrants have filled out and are familiar with. It is often the only formal document they have filled out in English. For our users, it is clear , understandable, and the large volume of data is not an obstacle for them .
Forget about general rules, only what the user appreciates is right.
For wireframes, graphics, texts and technical solutions, remind yourself of the goals and look at the solution through the eyes of your users. For communication set up like this to work, you must trust the professional experience of your agency and give up precise control . Otherwise, you will not save work.

On the second, we discussed our questions and clarified ambiguities within the business model.
On the third day, we already presented the initial proposals.
At the fourth meeting, we presented the marketing strategy, structure, and sketches.
At the last meeting, we clarified the details, submitted the project preparation, and started creating the website.
