DESCRIPTION

Barkley’s Business Transformation What do you do when half of your business goes away overnight? Two years ago, Jeff King, CEO of Barkley, received the phone call that agency executives have nightmares about – The new CMO of their largest client was putting the account into review. The client had been with the agency for 17 years and represented roughly 50% of the agency’s total revenue base. Twenty-four months later, Jeff is here to share the untold story about what was happening behind the scenes during the months that followed. He will also share key lessons learned by a management team that has now replaced nearly 100% of the lost revenue, diversified its client base, doubled the agency’s bottom line and has taken employee morale to new heights. Speaker: Jeff King, CEO, Barkley
