WE’VE WEATHERED THE STORM; HOPE THE SAME IS TRUE FOR YOU!

It’s not been fun; this off again, on again marketplace, the various versions of “support”, the uncertainties of so many variables – it’s a test of ones sanity. Client search traffic dopped off understandably but agencies continue to enroll (understandable as well). We haven’t had to make many adjustments to what we do and how we do things; the only exception if the use of ZOOM or an equivalent in lieu of the client visit to candidate agencies. I’m hoping we can return to actual sit visits and tours. If you’ve run across anything in particular that you think we might like to hear about, send it here.

For that reason, we keep a sharp lookout for scams and viruses – exposure is the price we pay to be certain we miss nothing!

THE ELEPHANT ISN’T ALWAYS IN THE ROOM

Having played a pivotal role in hundreds of ad agency searches over our 20-years, we’ve witnessed surprise and disappointment. And the elephant isn’t always in the room. Whether you’re an agency or a client planning to search for an agency, it’s important to stress that there are no hard and fast rules for running an agency search, nor are there any laws on the books that dictate the “process” or penalties for non-compliance. It’s not unusual for a non C-Suite individual to take the helm, to engage a consultant or search service, or to begin a Google search to do-it-themselves.
