Said on Creative Agency Account Manager Podcast

“The media agency industry has given away its thinking over 40 years. Do you want your agency to be a do-for-me agency, further down the value chain, or a think-for-me agency? A lot of the larger companies are going for the do. And unfortunately we've given away the thinking.” — Richard Temple, Creative Agency Account Manager Podcast

“When I'm sourcing an agency for a client, the first thing I think about is what would be my relative priority as a client within that agency. I would be lost like a fart in a hurricane if I put a small client into a very big organization. Agencies should say, there will be no one more important than your brand in our organization.” — David Meikle, Creative Agency Account Manager Podcast

“Clients have eroded agency margins over the last three decades, catastrophically. But what they didn't realize is that that margin allowed agencies to stick to their guns and say, look, this is the plan we've got for you. We believe it'll work. If it doesn't work, you can fire us. And I think that more than ever agencies are full of frightened people.” — David Meikle, Creative Agency Account Manager Podcast

“The least valuable bucket is solving problems with finite solutions. It's a Sudoku puzzle: it's either right or it's wrong. Getting the right ad with the right copy in the right medium at the right time is table stakes, but that is so much of the agency revenue model, and it's also the easiest to automate and check. So that whole revenue stream is sooner or later, we don't know when, going to evaporate.” — David Meikle, Creative Agency Account Manager Podcast
