For a variety of reasons I’ve had the opportunity to travel across the country more than usual this year, speaking on behalf of the Design Business Association in Manchester and Leeds and joining the Agency Collective at events in Bristol and Edinburgh.  It’s given me the opportunity to talk to agencies outside of the London bubble and better understand some of the differences and similarities around the perennial challenges and opportunities for growth.  So it was a pleasure to get to chat with Phil Gripton for this episode. Phil is a partner at growth advisory firm Waypoint, supporting agencies in the North of England and Scotland. His experience spans three decades of growing, running and selling agencies, as well as buying agency services in a number of client-side roles.  Phil shares his top tips for maximising agency performance – from boosting profitability to shaping up for acquisition.  We’re giving away a copy of Phil’s recommended read, Invisible Power by Ken Manning, Robin Charbit, and Sandra Krot – listen in to find out how to win.  The post EP34: Northern agency focus Phil Gripton | Waypoint Partners appeared first on Gunpowder Consulting.
