I love my agency.
But it’s burning me out.
I thought this would feel different.
I thought once we hit this level of clients, awards, and sales… it’d get easier.There's so much to do, I feel alone.
I wanted freedom.
I feel trapped by my agency.
I wanted to choose the work, build my team, do something better. I’m drowning in process gaps, cashflow worries.
I can barely think, let alone lead, I feel alone.
I'm running this agency on grit, luck and late nights.
And it's breaking me.
I should be 'Big Picture', I barely have the time to look up from my laptop. My team shouldn't feel like a burden.
I don’t know where to start, I feel alone.
I'm leading, directing and winning work.
I feel stretched out so thin.
I'm reacting not planning, the spreadsheets are confusing, we're over-servicing and under-delivering.
I loved my agency and the work, this wasn't the plan, I feel alone.
I started this agency to do things my way.
I'm spinning, I feel out of control.
I'm constantly reacting., fixing problems that have already happened.
I’m rowing with one hand and bailing with the other, I feel alone.
They keep telling me I’m inspiring.
I feel so close to quitting.
I spend all day patching broken processes, protecting our culture with one hand whilst pitching with the other.
I'm lost, I need a map, a route, I feel alone.
We've had so much success and grown so quickly.
The prize? More stress, more chaos, less of what I love.
There's a constant weight on my shoulders, have I created something that doesn’t work for me? I feel alone.

Andrew Smith
If you want less stress, want to fall back in love with your agency, and have the ambition, I’ve got the plan. I've also recycled over 300,000 supermarket shopping trolleys!
I’m Andrew — a Yorkshire man who knows the creative world inside-out. I've been through several recessions and seen that putting your people first is how you win. I want you and your agency to be successful, and to have fun along the way.
I’ve seen brilliant agencies trip up because nobody helped them sort the foundations: the culture, the tech, the numbers, the people - the scaffolding of joy.
I started ANDTHY to change that.
Craig Hunter
If you want to make your agency fly but are worried about crashing, I’ve seen a lot, got the scars and rolled up my sleeves enough times to help you avoid the sink holes.
I cut through the waffle to get results that actually stick, it's about working smart with a sprinkle of creative thinking and a whole heap of experience in building client relationships and rich new business pipelines.
I'm Craig — a South African straight talker with a proper knack for marketing and business support.
