THE AGENCY SYSTEM IS BROKEN
The agency system favours the big, not the brilliant. A handful of huge agency networks swallow up every serious pitch and big client, when there are thousands of independent agencies that don't get a chance.
We wanted to fix that.
THE PROBLEM
Independent agencies keep losing work they're good enough to win.
Specialist agencies often don’t have the resources to take on a ‘full-service’ campaign, or simply don’t have the name above the door. You lose out on briefs because you can't cover a full-service brief alone, and a network can. At least on paper. Brands who'd rather hire a specialist than a bloated network usually don't get the choice, because there's nowhere to actually find one, agree the work and pay them properly. So the brief defaults back to the name everyone's heard of.
THE SOLUTION
We built the place independent agencies go to find work, find each other, and get paid for it properly.
Find a specialist partner and go after a pitch you couldn't cover alone. Bring another agency in white-label, or refer a brief you're not right for and get paid your cut automatically. Or skip the agency-to-agency route entirely: just list what you do and let brands hire you directly.
However the work starts, it lands in one shared workspace: files, chat, payments, all done properly instead of over email and goodwill.
