Andrew Bloch built and exited Frank PR, one of the most talked about agencies in the country, before turning 26 years of contacts and experience into a portfolio spanning non-exec advisory, agency M&A, brand and agency matchmaking, and continued work alongside Lord Sugar.

In this episode, he tells Adam Graham what actually made Frank stand out in a market where most agency brands are interchangeable, from a hand drawn website that won design awards to a founding belief that a real USP has to be unusual rather than unique. Andrew is blunt about how few agencies get this right, and why “our people are passionate” isn’t a differentiator at all.

He also shares the discipline of brevity he’s learned from one of Britain’s busiest businessmen, and what buyers are really looking for when they acquire an agency.
