Event Themes: Growth / Profitability / Sales / Operations / Culture

An afternoon designed to fit neatly into agency leaders’ busy schedules. No full-day commitment. Just three hours of high-impact, bite-sized learning and meaningful connections.

The Game Changer Gathering is a mini-conference where agency leaders and industry partners share their secret sauce, cheat codes, shortcuts, and fresh perspectives that have helped them grow, adapt, and thrive. It’s the stuff they usually keep close to their chest…but they’re happy to share it with fellow Agency Folk. Think of it as your tactical toolkit top-up, with insights you can action immediately, as we give experts the opportunity to “show and tell” their best kept secrets!

--

During this session, you'll benefit from an afternoon of real talk, real insights, and real connections with agency leaders who want to do things better.

Running an agency is a wild ride and as you grow, so do the challenges:

🚀 Bigger clients, tighter margins, more pressure to deliver

🧩 More moving parts, more people, more process

📈 And an ever-growing need to run things smarter, not just harder

That’s where this mini-conference comes in. Join a brilliant group of agency leaders for an afternoon of knowledge-sharing, honest conversation, and practical ideas you can actually use.


We’ll explore:

  • Optimising operations for scale and sanity
  • Winning (and keeping) the right clients
  • Hiring well and building culture that lasts
  • Boosting profitability without burning out your team
  • …and anything else you want to throw into the room


You’ll hear from experienced leaders, share your own stories with others in the room, and walk away with new ideas, fresh connections, and renewed energy.

This is a deliberately intimate event with limited spots. So if you're the kind of leader who wants to grow your agency and enjoy the ride, grab your place now.
