What happens when you want to work for the world’s biggest brands but don’t (or can’t) want to go into an office every day? If you’re Tim Sands, you build your own agency (minus the office) and invite your favourite colleagues to join you. 

Welcome to a ‘Behind The Curtain’ special edition of “Plugged In, Switched On’ podcast from Splendid Group where we talk with founder Tim Sands and Business Director for APJ Tina Semple about the pros and cons of a 100% remote agency model. 

A ‘Behind The Curtain’ special edition of ‘Plugged In Switched On’ lets us take a closer look at how leaders and innovators are creating businesses, inspiring teams, changing models and re-thinking the way agencies work. We get technical, we get personal, we get philosophical. Here’s a little of what we covered when we went behind the curtain of a 100% remote agency: 

  • What happens when you build a team on trust? 
  • Why do remote teams struggle when meeting IRL? 
  • Is the low-cost offshore talent model still relevant? 
  • How do clients feel when they can’t ’visit’ their agency?
