Leading an agency at 50+ headcount is a different game. The systems that got you here often don’t take you further – and the growing pains can be brutal.

At this special Agency Hackers event, you’ll hear from agency leaders and ops directors who’ve navigated this shift. Discover the frameworks, strategies, and mindset shifts that help agencies scale smoothly – and connect with others who are transforming their businesses, just like you.

Right now, agencies are being pushed to their limits to adapt in ways they never expected. AI is moving faster than anyone can track, economic pressure is reshaping budgets and teams, and operations that once felt “good enough” are starting to crack under the strain.

This event is about tackling those challenges head-on. You’ll explore how to cut through software bloat, improve financial resilience, and build connected, efficient systems that support your team as you grow. Through candid conversations and practical sessions, you’ll uncover what’s really working inside successful agencies – and what’s getting in the way.

If your agency is at a turning point, this is where you’ll find clarity, confidence, and the company of others facing the same leap.

Join us for an exclusive event with the leaders of independent agencies who run 50+ headcount businesses

Uncluttered: How to Streamline Your Agency

Uncluttered: How to Streamline Your Agency

In many agencies, disjointed ways of working have become the norm. The endless juggling act between experimenting with AI tools, switching between software platforms, and patching together workflows that don’t really talk to each other is a trio that agencies can waste their valuable time on. It’s inefficient, frustrating, and it drains time and energy that could be spent on high-value work.

Harv Nagra from Scoro will show you one way of fixing this. By unifying all of your operations into a single, smart platform that eliminates the clutter and connects your teams is the way to go. With insights into how the big agencies are doing it, Harv will share what can actually streamline day-to-day life.

Breaking out of siloed, bloated systems isn’t just about saving time – it’s about building a leaner, and smarter agency ready for the future.

Agency leaders are under pressure to make faster, smarter decisions now more than ever.

That’s where Rich Brett comes in.

In this talk, he’ll cut through the noise and get to the numbers, sharing the financial levers and operational controls that keep agencies resilient and profitable. With over 15 years of finance experience – including a decade working inside agency teams – Rich supports multiple different agencies to scale them up using financial reporting and revenue recognition processes.

Whether you’re in ops or on the exec team, you’ll leave with practical advice you can act on immediately. It’s not just about survival – it’s about staying sharp, future-ready, and financially fit, no matter what the market throws at you.

This is Fine. Navigating Agency Life When AI and The Economy Are On Fire

There’s only one constant in agency life: that nothing is constant. With factors like AI and the economy thrown into the mix, it’s no wonder why some people are struggling to keep up.

AI is making things possible that we couldn’t fathom a few years, months, days ago – and economic pressures are forcing everyone to rethink budgets, teams, and even how to define value. There’s an overwhelming world of choice, but where do you put your energy first?
