Breaking the £1M barrier: a workshop with Janusz Stabik
BCI Workshop
Following the popularity of this event in April, we are delighted to be able to schedule a repeat of the workshop in June!
We’ve all seen the benchmarks, stats and case studies from unicorn agencies. But most agencies employ less than 15 people and struggle to break through the £1M revenue glass ceiling, whilst harbouring aspirations to grow beyond.
So what’s holding us back? Why can’t we break through this barrier? Why does it sometimes feel like 2 steps forward, 3 steps back? Why are our projects so difficult to deliver? How can we generate more (high quality) leads? How can we create a scalable platform to grow beyond the £1M barrier and deliver consistent, sustainable profit?
Join Janusz Stabik who’ll help you to smash through this £1M barrier. You’ll discover the agency business models that scale well, and those that don’t. We’ll review benchmarks, tactics and strategy for taking your agency to £1M and beyond. You’ll meet like-minded agency owners and you’ll leave with a spring in your step, feeling energised and excited about the future and you’ll have gained clarity on how to get there.
By the end of the workshop you will:
This workshop is aimed at agency owners/founders/directors running businesses with less than 15 employees and/or less than £1M in annual revenue.

Lead with Authenticity

Networking
I already know you’re good at your job, that’s why you’re here.
You’ve spent years mastering your craft and take pride in your work.
But being a leader means more than just getting the work done.
Now, you’re expected to voice opinions, make decisions, and solve problems.
And when you’re still new to leadership, that can feel daunting.
You’ve had some great leaders in the past (and a few you’d rather not become).
Now it’s your turn. It’s time to work out how you want to lead.
This session isn’t about fixed leadership styles or corporate stereotypes. It’s about bringing your personality, values, and experience into how you show up at work.
You’ll leave with practical tools, honest stories, and fresh perspective, whether leading a team, a business or yourself.
You’ll also have the chance to meet a lovely group of peers here in the South West who are figuring it out too.
What we’ll cover:
What authentic leadership really looks like (and what it’s not).
How to build trust without pretending to be someone you’re not.
How to feel more confident in your role — even when you don’t have all the answers.
You’ll leave with new perspectives, useful tools, and a network of brilliant peers in the South West who are facing similar challenges.
