Up to the Light’s ‘What Clients Think’ report is an eagerly anticipated, definitive annual snapshot of the client/agency relationship. Now in its 9th year, the 2023 report is based on 650 client interviews conducted on behalf of agencies, the highest-ever number. The report is packed with information, evidence and insight for agencies. As clients emerge out of the pandemic into some serious economic headwinds, find out how clients are coping and, crucially, what they want from agencies.
