How it works

Agency Bites is an exclusive series of online events that bring together groups of agency owners to discuss a particular topic, where they can learn from and support each other. Join us.

Who’s it for?
  • Ambitious agency owners or Managing Directors
  • We split the sessions by turnover size, with some groups for those with a turnover over £1m and some for those under £1m.
  • People willing to share. Our events are interactive

Great conversation

Great conversation

Discuss and learn from other amazing agency owners. A big part of what makes Agency Bites so special is the agency owners we’re able to bring together. We connect people that have something in common – whether it’s their location, size of the agency, or the challenges they’re facing.

Top insights

Top insights

As well as working with hundreds of agencies, we also run the largest survey of independent agency owners in the UK – BenchPress. Run annually, the survey and report highlight key trends, stats and averages for agency owners to benchmark their performance. Join us at Agency Bites to hear the very latest findings from BenchPress.

The best start to your day

The best start to your day

Our events are normally in the morning, giving you a chance to start your day with a dose of inspiration. We find doing them in the morning means you’ve got a clearer head and you’re less likely to get pulled into the day-to-day running of your agency. We suggest blocking some time out immediately after to digest what you’ve learned and turn your ideas into actions.

What other people say

I was fortunate to be invited to an Agency Bites session with Rory. I had a thoroughly fascinating morning. Left and spent the next 48hrs completely re-jigging and re-framing my sales funnel. So much gain and insight. A great way to start the morning!

How to price your work (and win more of it) in tricky times

The BenchPress reports have continually highlighted pricing as a critical challenge for agencies. Now more than ever, it’s important to have a solid strategic approach to how you value your work to ensure you attract and win the right clients.

In a tough economic climate, pricing can be one of the first things to come under pressure, as clients demand more for their money. There’s no doubt that rates have an impact on new business - we see agencies discount, negotiate and often take on more than what they’re charging for simply to get deals over the line. However, these are short-term wins that can cause long-term challenges.

During these Agency Bites sessions, we’ll explore:

  • What the latest pricing benchmarks mean for your size of agency
  • The fundamentals of value-based pricing - and how to adjust your sales technique accordingly
  • How to increase your rates for your existing clients
  • The benefits of building out a niche and what this does to your conversion rate
  • How to discount effectively

Book your spot for the following dates. Each session runs from 9.30 - 10.30am.

For agencies with turnover under £1m, sign up for one of these dates:

For agencies with turnover over £1m, sign up for one of these dates:

Note these are all interactive workshops (cameras and microphones will be on). Please ensure that you’re ready to participate in this way on the day. Thank you.
