Hi there - I currently work at an agency and am thinking about transitioning over to in-house. I’m curious about what kinds of client interactions are involved compared to agency life (which is of course client facing all the time!)

Any insight would be helpful. Thanks!

Im on the brand side standing up an I house team now. It can be a little squishy depending on how big your org is. Right now we only have one ‘client’ and it’s our CMO. But in larger orgs you could be working for multiple brands or properties- and those stakeholders would be your client.

Hey guys, I’m a freelance broadcast producer and I’ve spent most of my career working for larger agencies. I’m doing something for a smaller agency and they want the production company to hide costs in their bid and then have production bill the client the inflated amount directly and pay the hidden costs to the agency. The agency is calling it a “consultation fee” but client just thinks production costs more. Is that common and I just haven’t experienced it before? Or is this a big red flag?
