The old way to lose a client's trust was turning up thin. The new way is turning up with something that looks finished and having nothing when they ask "why this?"

Could you defend your last deck, line by line?

Fifty per cent gross margin used to be the target. It's now the floor.

What would it take to deliver the same outcome at half the cost?

At our next dinner, we'll discuss the 'Future Fit Model' - five things that are true about the agencies thriving. Four of them multiply together. One of them drags the whole thing down.

Listen as I make the case for a payroll built around judgment and expertise, not billable hours.

Your team isn't difficult. Your leadership channel is.

If your team's main experience of your leadership is Slack messages, they stop feeling led and start feeling managed at a distance.

Logistics or leadership? Ask before you send.
