Your Marketing Service Business Has Unique Accounting and Finance Needs
The marketing industry has never been more complex or fast-changing. Whether you lead a full-service ad agency, digital marketing firm, marketing consulting firm, or PR agency, it’s more challenging than ever to balance meeting your clients’ service expectations with scaling and running the business profitably.
At the same time marketing is growing more specialized, it’s become increasingly difficult, expensive, and time-consuming to find top talent across those specialties. You’re also challenged to keep up with rapidly changing marketing technologies like SEO and ChatGPT, manage a remote workforce that might be scattered across the country, and obtain accurate data and analytics to make the most informed decisions about running the business effectively.
To operate a marketing services firm that’s competitive, service-focused, and profitable, while staying compliant with tax laws, you need a partner that understands the complexities of accounting and finance for marketing businesses. Scrubbed is that partner. We take on your accounting and finance function, freeing your team to focus on the all-important tasks of serving your clients and growing and running the business.
