This Week's Agency Insights

Every week, we share content to help you run your agency business:

  • ​Diving deeper into agency growth challenges - as agency founder, you feel the need to grow and land more clients; before signing up for a firm that promises you 40 qualified leads through outbound email, read this first.
    ​
  • Hourly billing doesn't work? Tell that to the law firm that did $7 billion in revenue. An interesting look into Latham, a big law firm with over 3,500 lawyers with an average hourly revenue rate of $1,000.
    ​
  • Looking to scale up your agency in a cost-effective way? We're working with JobRack right now to hire for a key role at one of our agencies. JobRack specializes in sourcing talent from Eastern Europe & South Africa. One of our top hires in the last 5 years was via JobRack and this person still plays a critical role on the team.
