Agency Money People – Could A Quarterly Meeting Change your Work Life?
Something we often hear from agency CFOs/Accountants, Bookkeepers, etc. is they wish they had others to bounce around ideas with …who understand the business … and could offer an informed opinion. Let’s face it. As the agency’s money person, you’re usually the one who is driving some of the biggest decisions within the business.
What if you could spend 3-4 hours a quarter with an “ad hoc” board of advisors -others who are walking the same path as you, facing the same challenges?
We’re inviting you to join AMI’s Money People Network – a quarterly half-day meeting of the member agency CFO/Accountant/Bookkeepers (10 agencies max) who talk openly and freely about their challenges and come together collectively to assist each other to meet those challenges.
It will become the best, most productive half-day of your quarter. We promise.
AMI’s Sandy Catour facilitates these virtual video gatherings of agency money people from across the world who not only learn from each other but also create a bond in a confidential environment that promotes resource sharing, problem-solving, and camaraderie.
You’re Among Peers Who All Want The Same Thing
Network members are exclusive to their market – there’s no competitive threat … no other agencies from across town … only others just like you who are committed to growing their agencies in ways that separate and distinguish them from those in an increasingly competitive marketplace.
There’s power in collective experiences. Each quarter (and probably in-between via email) members come together to tackle issues … from best practices for financial management, reporting, and forecasting, making the most of your financial software, providing analysis and input on matters that affect the financial strength of the agency…not just regurgitating numbers, to the importance of being well rounded on the many additional responsibilities entrusted to the “accountants” such as HR, risk management, procurement, legal, etc.
This Isn’t For Everyone
AMI’s Virtual Agency Money People’s Network is for agencies that fit the profile of the other 250 small to mid-size agencies we work with each year … a mix of advertising agencies, PR firms, marketing shops, media buying, digital marketing, and design firms with the desire and drive to grow their business to the next level.
To be considered for membership; you must:
- Be an agency CFO/Accountant/Bookkeeper
- Be interested in peer group discussions and learning
- Be willing to share your ideas, successes, and failures generously and openly
- Adhere to the AMI Manifesto
Learn AMI’s Best Practices
In addition to learning from each other, we’ll share AMI’s best practices that help agency COOs come alongside their agency owners to operate profitable enterprises. We’ve learned these ourselves from a collective 50+ year experience of operating our own agencies.
Interact With Purpose From Your Desk
Like anything, what you contribute is proportional to what you receive. This confidential environment promotes a dialogue of trust and sharing. The key to making a peer network meaningful is members’ willingness to be open and honest – sharing successes as well as failures. The exponential power of people coming together with a common purpose and experiences can change your life.
Should You Apply?
AMI’s Virtual Agency Money People Network provides a forum for professionals like you who want and need an opportunity to come together to discover and learn from others, tap into AMI’s proven methods that drive profitability, and to create a secure future for you and your family.
