“We’re a 7-figure agency!” – but when you peek under the hood, the truth is shocking...Most agencies are stuck in a cycle of chasing revenue, ignoring profit and burning out. But the truth is, scaling doesn’t mean growing at all costs – it means growing smarter, leaner and more profitably. This week we'll sit down with Valentin Kuznetcov our Financial Consultant to get real about why so many agencies struggle to scale sustainably. ________ Want to break free from operations and scale more easily and strategically?

We sat down for a no-holds-barred conversation with Ryan McNamara, a Head of Operations at Rise at Seven | Search-First Creative Agency - a global powerhouse in search and creative PR (with offices in London, Manchester, Sheffield & New York,) to break down why most agencies fail to scale. We’ll also talk about: → If you’re aiming for 100% utilisation, you’re one client issue away from disaster. → If your team turnover is sky-high, it’s not bad hires - it’s you. → Breaking things is part of growth (Deal With It). → Fully remote agencies may be at a disadvantage when it comes to building real, resilient teams. → How to build a culture on behaviours, accountability and clarity - not perks or promises. → What’s next for Rise at Seven (and why most agencies won't catch up) Are you an agency founder?
