Who we work with
Why we only work with agencies
Barnridge was founded to partner with marketing and communications agencies exclusively from the outset. Our founder is vastly experienced in agency finances, having worked with agencies in practice and then in senior accounting and finance roles in both independent and group agencies. This experience has given him first-hand insights into the problems faced by agencies, enabling Barnridge to offer relevant information and guidance to agency owners.
We believe in sticking with what you know, which is why we won’t work with any business that isn’t in marketing and communications.
