On the 6th August we put on a special event with agency owners and experts to share the month to month timeline of their financial and business performance, the decisions they made to survive and what they’re planning to do next. Peter Czapp of The Wow Company and the Benchpress survey also joined us to share the latest research and insights into how agencies are doing in 2020.
Gladly leaving 2019 behind, 2020 got off to a great start. Nothing could have prepared Nice And Serious Co-Founder Tom Tapper for what was about to happen. The COVID meteorite hit and the impact was significant.
Tom shares that the only way through this is to stick to your values, adjust and adapt.
The Benchpress study is the leading piece of independent agency research in the UK. The latest results are in. Peter shares that agencies have more cash in the bank than ever before and that founders are getting to work on their business (not just in it). But what are the longer term effects?
In March, Co-Founder of Wire, Pam Scobbie received a call that would heavily impact the future of her agency. A pulled retainer and furloughed staff led to renewed motivation and a chance to flex the agency's creative muscles.
