For marketing agencies, freelancers & fractional CMOs

You fix this problem for your clients. Who fixes it for you?

New business is the first thing that slips when delivery gets heavy — and it slips silently. We answer the enquiry, qualify against your actual ICP, and book the call, so the pipeline does not empty out every time you get busy.

We need help with paid social. Currently doing it in-house and it is not working.

Happy to look. Roughly what are you spending a month at the moment?
Caller
About 25k across Meta and TikTok.

That is in range. Is this a rebuild from scratch or picking up what is running?
Caller
Probably a rebuild honestly.

Then a 45-minute audit call is the right first step. Ollie has Thursday 11:00 or Friday 2:00.

What it actually costs you

Three things every agency operator deals with.

54% / 22%

Answer rate and conversion in business services

The lowest conversion of nine industries. You already know this, because it is the number you show prospects. It applies to you too.

13%

Average agency net margin

From 119 agency leaders reporting 2025 results. At that margin the cost of a slow reply is not abstract — one lost retainer is a meaningful share of the year.

Feast/famine

The cycle every agency owner knows

Delivery crowds out business development, the pipeline empties, and ninety days later there is nothing to deliver. Automation is the only thing that keeps running when you are heads-down.

The agency playbook

What we set up for Agencies, freelancers & fractional CMOs.

New-business enquiries answered in minutes

From the website, LinkedIn, or a referral email — while you are in a client workshop.

Qualification against your real ICP

Budget, category, timeline, whether they have worked with an agency before. The bad-fit calls stop reaching your calendar.

Proposal and pitch follow-up

The pitch you spent three days on deserves more than one follow-up email that you forget to send.

Client reporting and check-in cadence

The monthly touchpoint that keeps a retainer alive, automated so it survives a busy month.

Case-study and review collection

At the moment the result lands, when the client is most willing to say something quotable.

Dormant-prospect reactivation

Every agency has a list of people who said "not right now" eighteen months ago. Some of them mean now.

A guardrail we put in writing. One thing worth knowing if you run review generation for your clients: the FTC rule that took effect in October 2024 names advertising and PR agencies as directly liable for writing, buying, or suppressing reviews. Everything we build asks every customer and suppresses none — which protects your clients and, more to the point, protects you.

On your current bill

What agency operators usually stop paying for.

Talk to someone who has actually run a agency phone

Tell us what is happening and we will call your business after hours first, so you hear the problem before we pitch the fix.

No spam and no reselling your information, ever. We call once, and if it is not a fit we tell you so.

Next step

Hear what your agency phone sounds like at 8 PM.

We call your business when nobody is there and record what happens. Then you hear the same call handled properly. Fifteen minutes, and the recording is yours either way.
