CLIENT SERVICES MASTERMIND: Why You Should Choose ‘Unsexy’ Clients

11am, Tuesday 4th June 2024

  • What exactly is an ‘unsexy’ client? Ultimately, it comes down to the perception of others. 
  • Some industries might lack the obvious glamour of a well-recognisable brand, but it doesn’t mean you should turn them away. Working with such clients might just open up the possibility of doing some good, to really challenge yourself and try new things.
  • Join us for this upcoming client services mastermind panel, where we’ll be joined by Helen Foord, Cat Kavern and Kristina Ball. Together, we’ll be exploring why you should choose unsexy clients and why they’re actually not that unsexy at all.

CEO SUMMIT: How Do You Know When It’s Time to Sell?

2pm, Thursday 6th June 2024

  • “I was at the end of my rope. I just didn’t want to do it anymore.” There comes a time in every agency founder’s story when they realise they want out – for Jon Payne, this was last year.
  • “It was a bit like that moment when you suddenly realise you need to move house. I just realised it was ridiculous.”
  • In this month’s CEO Summit, Jon will be joining us to shed more light on why he felt it was the right time to sell his agency, how he navigated the process in a way it worked for him (spoiler: no earn-out) – and perhaps help you figure this out too.

M&A SURGERY: How Can You Secure Private Equity Investment?

2pm, Thursday 13th June 2024

  • Private equity investment can be a game-changer, promising rapid growth and expansion for agencies. For founders, it’s also a huge chance to cash in and take some chips off the table.
  • But navigating this path is no mean feat. How can you secure this kind of investment, and stand out from the crowd, while retaining what makes your agency inherently you?
  • Two years ago, Raman Sehgal embarked on this journey himself, taking his agency ramarketing to market and achieving the remarkable milestone of a double-digit multiple valuation, a rare and significant achievement in the agency world. He will be taking us through his investment journey, and helping you figure out if this is the right path for you too.

TECHNICAL MASTERMIND: What Are The Benefits of Building Your Own Platform?

11am, Tuesday 18th June 2024

  • You’ve heard of, and probably even used, some of the most well-known platforms for agency work. But no tool is perfect – so you might decide to invest and build your own software.
  • “Five years ago, we developed our own platform to run our entire agency model,” says Chris Scott, chief digital officer at Revere Agency. “Everything from account management, quoting, invoicing, reporting, HR records and management, time tracking, task management, scheduling –  all of that is in there.”
  • Their own custom-made agency platform was so successful due to its flexibility to grow as Revere grows. If you’ve been considering creating your own agency platform and wondering how go about it, join us for this month’s technical mastermind, where Chris will delve into how his platform works – and the benefits it brings.

  • Join us for this marketing and new biz mastermind, where Dan will guide us through how he and the team at Knowlton have left their mark on the B2B industry and have made it far less boring.
