Feeling like your agency’s growing…but you still don’t know where the money’s going?

If you’ve ever thought:

❌ “We’re growing, but I’ve no idea if we’re making money…”

❌ “Cash is tight, even though the P&L says we’re fine…”

❌ “I feel like I’m flying blind…”

This playbook is for you.

What You’'ll Learn:

The Finance Playbook for Agencies is your step-by-step guide to building a simple, performance-driven finance system that gives you:

✓ Clarity on where profit’s coming from (and where it’s leaking)

✓ Control over your cash, costs, and capacity

✓ Confidence to grow, knowing your finances can support it

Inside, you’ll learn how to:

Read your P&L, balance sheet & cash flow like a pro (no jargon, no fluff)

Understand why you’re profitable on paper but tight on cash & how to fix the disconnect.

Build budgets and forecasts that actually help you grow, not just collect dust in a spreadsheet.

Protect your margins using real data from project management systems & time tracking tools.

Set KPIs that give you clarity & focus, instead of vanity metrics that mislead you.

Run monthly reviews that drive real decisions, so your numbers work for you, not against you.

We work with creative, ambitious agencies who want more from their finances than a once-a-year report.
