Your non-executive non-ego board of advisors for your agency

An open letter to YOU

Can you do me a favour and step behind the curtain for a moment?

I’d like to show you something…

Yeah I know.

It’s tricky to be on stage all the time;

playing the cheerleader, mummy / daddy, BFF, teacher, carer, coach, fortune teller, MIND READER…

I can’t see from here, but how many are there?

20, 30, maybe 40 people sat at their computers creating the future of your agency?

Some days their brilliance makes you wiggle your toes
- and other days, there isn’t enough wine in the cupboard to drown your sorrows.

So how did you get this far with your agency?

Definitely the 10X3p4squared Nomics Bamboozle Formula!

What?

You don’t actually know?!

Say that again…

You made half of it up as you went along?

(Whispers) Don’t tell anyone, but most agency leaders do.

How do I know that?

I’ve met over 3,000 agency leaders (yeah I know, I need to get a life) who told me so. Because let's face it, if there were a formula, wouldn't we all use it and build a mega successful agency?

OK, but you must have come here for a reason.

I assume it’s cause you got the collywobbles, knowing you have 20/30/40 mouths to feed and making a mistake now costs a little more than a pizza and an apology card.

You probably also never worked in an agency before and you just kinda want to figure this whole “running an agency” thing out.

Understand how ‘agency people’ do it.

Perhaps, you feel it's less about you, but more about helping to get your leadership team to the next level.

Or you just recently started as a Managing Director of an agency and you've never done this before - you want to make sure you're going to make a good impact. 

Now you’re thinking about getting external help, perhaps in form of a traditional non-executive director or a peer community.

If you’ve read this far, feel free to find out what the shortcomings of a traditional agency non-executive director or a peer community are
- in our How it works section.

Because I have a good feeling we can help you...

Cheers ✌️❤️
