Testimonials

“Parakeeto provides an insightful analysis of your agency’s financial and operational effectiveness and compares it to businesses you wonder about. They review all the tools in your business that impact those two factors. I think agency leaders who are experiencing or have experienced significant growth or change AND want to have confidence in their ability to continue to grow should get a Parakeeo audit.”

“Excellent work! Very thorough and insightful. Marcel is a very friendly mad scientist! I look forward to seeing how the Audit progresses into Action, Profitability, and Team Harmony.”

“The agency audit was very well thought out process that provided extremely valuable insights on our profitability, team utilization, and other key financial metrics. I would recommend this to any agency that wants a more in-depth view into their financials and key metrics that inform how you should be running your business. My favorite part was going through the audit presentation. I’m a nerd when it comes to metrics and numbers so it was both fun and insightful to go over key findings from the audit and identify areas of improvement.”

“Loved seeing how much the agency could grow over the next 5 years. So daunting too but it was exactly what I needed to light a fire under me. Really liked looking at the various levers that could be pulled to increase the value of the agency – amazing what a 1% utilization change can do for the revenue figure.”

Model Testimonials

“The Model Service is a great way to get insights into how your agency is actually performing. For me it was an eye-opener and showed a clear path on how to move forward. The best part of The Model is you do it together with the Parakeeto Team, so it is quite hands-on as a Done-with-You service and this is great, so you can ask follow-up questions and play around with various scenarios. I think you guys have a great onboarding, this helped me to prepare well for the call. The Model Session itself went well and I got a lot out of it.”

Sander Touw, CEO

“The Model service was a tool that we used to quickly run different scenarios of staffing allocation. We are able to project staffing capacity and revenue impact by adding/removing positions, changing overhead costs, etc and get numbers real time. I enjoyed how quick and easy it was to run different scenarios with the Model service.”

Emily Fleniken – Creative Director

“The model process was very informative. As a non-number-minded person, I really had to focus to pick up the concepts, but Carson was very helpful to explain things a few times if needed. My favorite part was walking through various scenarios and understanding how our business will be able to handle certain workloads.”

Michelle Keckler, Co-Founder

model-testimonial Eddie Ulrich

“Parakeeto’s Model Service helped our agency to identify and define the key data points and formulas needed to evaluate our current profitability as well as calculate our team’s earning capacity. The simplicity of the Model is its key strength – and our ability to plug and play with the numbers gives us instantaneous insight into the level of impact small improvements could have.”

“I’ve started looking at what ABR actually is for our agency. My mind has been blown by the fact that our biggest issue may actually be the team’s efficiency and not looking at utilization the right way. I’m loving ops again.”

“The toolkit is a must-have for people who want to scale an agency with the right basics. It’s easy to forget that financial management is essential, and that marketing and lead acquisition aren’t the only things that count. The toolkit is the best tool for managing your marketing agency. It’s free, and you’ll learn things that are rarely taught.”

Victor Lignel, President
Stonks Group

“If you’re on the fence about downloading the toolkit, don’t do it. Don’t download it. Especially if you’re a competitor of mine. Just kidding. It’s just going to help you be more profitable. I don’t know what agency wouldn’t want to learn about this.”
