- Why Talented Creatives Are Leaving Your Shitty Agency mobileinc.co.uk
<blockquote>The people who generate all the ideas and work are evolving and realising that they themselves could be reaping the rewards rather than the agency.
Agencies on the other hand are happy to keep trying to live in a world which is ceasing to exist. Clinging onto the same ideas, tools, and ways of working with CEOs who are either oblivious to the current mindset or too frightened to instigate change. It’s the perfect storm of increasing entrepreneurialism, decreasing loyalty and an industry reveling in mediocrity.</blockquote>

- Report Paints a Painful View of Ad Agencies « FUEL LINES Fueling Ad Agency New Business Through Social Media fuelingnewbusiness.com
"Forrester Research believes today’s ad agencies are not well-structured to take on tomorrow’s marketing challenges, needing to move from making messages to establishing community connections." What, really?
- Made By Many » Blog Archive » “What Is a Social-Media Agency?” madebymany.co.uk
The old digital agency model is not helpful today. Instead, the industry can learn a lot from social start-ups (like Vimeo - who I am in love with, or SoundCloud) and work as fast as possible, being entrepreneurial, pragmatic, and nimble [...] People in traditional agencies - ‘old new media’ and our cousins in advertising - say they find all of the above quite challenging - which is weird because these agencies are stuffed with really smart people.

Designers Republic goes under. "I’ve never liked that agency model - it’s not where creativity lies. DR accidentally ended up there in order to service bigger clients. I’m not being ungrateful to the people who ran the business side at DR – it wasn’t their fault. I’m glad we did it - it took getting there to make me realise that it wasn’t where I wanted to be."

"Clients complained that their agencies [...] typically treat social channels like blogs as traditional media. In other cases, their ideas are not backed up by practical skills in the area." Glad it's not just me.

I think there are two ways to start / be a great creative business - 'the group of experts' (which I think of as The Magnificent Seven) and 'the group of friends' (which always makes me think of The Double-Deckers.)

- advertising practitioner: how facebook might save advertising russelldavies.typepad.com
It's clear to me that Facebook might be the one thing that saves advertising agencies from an ignominious slide into irrelevance. Because now, finally, there's a mass, popular digital tool out there that senior agency people are using for it's own sake
Despite waves of consolidation across the ad-agency business, there remains a healthy bunch of independent digital shops doing everything from search optimization to building web interfaces to simply doing damn good creative.
