Let Us Energize Your Next Meeting

Here’s how it works. You have an audience. You’ve got a time slot to fill. And we’ve got the interest. Over the years our best new business tool has been our public speaking at conferences, open houses, ad club meetings and more. That’s the reason we don’t look at our public speaking as a profit center but more of a new business expense that we try to balance out. This doesn’t mean we shill from your podium which is in very poor taste. What it means is that people hear us present real solutions, how to solve difficult problems that trouble their organizations, and then they want to use us to help their firm grow, keep clients, or improve operations in some way. And that’s the way it works. Click here for a list of typical speaking topics.

Leaders at these smaller and mid-sized agencies need ongoing support in the areas of business development, financial management, operations management, training & skills development, information technology and issues of sale, merger and succession. Many industries are effectively served by well organized, experienced and substantial network organizations – and ours is no exception.

They can spare no energy to chase castles in the air or to build empires on sand. You know because you’re probably just like that yourself.

But we feel it’s in both our interests to find out. You see Sanders Consulting Group works only for creative agencies. We are on your side. We do no work for clients. And in today’s volatile market place, few consultants can claim that. We believe agencies need more friends like us.
