Scaling up is exciting, but expensive. Although there’s more money coming in, this growth means added costs from all angles, especially in the back office. And for all the benefits that your percentage charge model may bring, there comes a point where your rising revenue results in an outgoing fee that’s less cost effective.

With additional factors like rising inflation, you need a flexible, affordable solution that gives you the freedom to take your agency to the next level. So with that in mind, let’s explore when and why a percentage charge model may no longer be right for you, and how we can support your long-term goals.

Outgrowing old ways

Remember when your business was in its infancy and you were still building your client base? Being charged a percentage on your revenue really made sense. It gave you the breathing room to flex your skills and grow, without breaking the bank. But business moves quickly, and while this option may have suited your agency in the short term, it might not be sustainable for the future.

As you reel in more revenue, costs start to escalate. And in the current economic climate, interest rates are rising on bank borrowing, and the cost-of-living crisis is likely to hike up your staff’s wages. Suddenly, your big plans to scale take a knock, forcing you to spend more and more money to keep your back office functioning.

We’re not trying to scare you with financials, but we’re keen to show you an alternative solution. One that charges a fixed fee and lets you outsource specific elements of your back office to meet your unique business needs. This way, you won’t get charged more for making more money. Plus, you’ll gain all the benefits of bringing the back office in house, with none of the hassle!
