Overview
An advertising or marketing agency is a people-and-cashflow business. You are pitching, producing campaigns, buying media and juggling retainers and project work, often fronting costs — media spend, contractors, production — before the client pays. Talented people are your main asset and your biggest cost, and they walk out the door every night.
In a crowded national market, clients can be quick to cut budgets when times tighten. The agencies that hold up are the ones with a clear specialty, predictable retainer income, and the cash discipline to fund payroll and media buys while waiting on 30 to 60-day client terms.

Who we usually help in this industry.
Common questions
Because the agency pays its people and suppliers on time but waits 30 to 60 days to be paid by clients. Add fronted media spend and the gap widens. A working-capital buffer bridges that mismatch so payroll is never at risk.
By building recurring retainer revenue alongside project work, so there is a predictable base each month. Many also stage invoicing and take deposits on big productions to keep cash coming in through the job.
Client concentration. When one account is a large share of revenue, losing it hurts badly. Diversifying the client base and protecting cash flow are the two best defences.
