Reply To: At what point do you stop paying an agency and hire in-house?

To quote what you wrote:

“our agency got us on a great path over the last ~2 years. Solid setup, steady growth, things generally work.”

And the board wants to mess this arrangement up by hiring someone in-house to cut costs?

Let them do it.

And then, in 4-6 months and a ton of spent $$$ and lost revenue, the board will be begging the agency to take then back as a client.

If the agency accepts, the board will never get the same deal as before, it’s really going to sting this time.

The only thing I’m wondering is who is the board going to blame for the fiasco?

Take a wild guess …
