Agencies everywhere are changing how they price — fixed fees, outcome language, productized offerings. And yet, fees are still negotiated down, scopes expand, and margins barely improve.

The challenge isn’t simply pricing. We are applying new pricing approaches to an unchanged commercial model. Until that changes, the economics won’t follow.

Based on the newly published VoxComm paper Redesigning the Agency Value Model and interviews with leaders from agencies including FIG, VCCP, 72andSunny, Monks, We.
Communications, Bond Brand Loyalty, Time Under Tension, and BOND, as well as Brian’s work with agencies worldwide, this webinar shows where the breakdown occurs and
what to do differently to change the economics.
