Join Indie Agency News
You’re not a niche. You’re the future of the industry.
Independent agencies aren’t the alternative—they’re what’s next.
Whether you’re well-known or just getting started—in São Paulo, Singapore, or Seattle—this is where creative, media, production, strategy, innovation, performance, experiential, and every other kind of independent agency gets the visibility and recognition it deserves.
And if you’re a consultant or freelancer helping shape the work—there’s a seat for you here, too.
Who is this for?
Member feedback
The consult on our award submission was so helpful and productive—and not the type of insight and support that we have available to us elsewhere. They feel too good to be true —no notes!
Rachel Brandt
Co-founder, Corner Table Creative
We were able to make quick adjustments on the fly to awards entry, with feedback shared in real time from an outside perspective on what is valuable to call out vs. what is more fluff materials. This helps us consolidate our entries and (hopefully) stand out from others. And it only took 15 minutes.

I appreciate the team's genuine energy and enthusiasm for helping indies excel. They helped us find the power in our own story.

We've found immense value in our membership with Indie Agency News. From exclusive events to thought leadership content and 1:1 sessions, these memberships provide the support indie agencies need in the current market.

Dir. of Marketing, Drake Cooper
Indie Agency News is an important segment in the advertising and marketing space. IAN is building a network and a community – bringing ideas to help indies grow – and is incredibly easy to work with, which makes our working together a valued partnership.
Dan Prince
Founder, Prince Communications
The biggest value is the support shown to our agency – whether it’s a draft news pitch to get thoughts on (like our Schneiders AI work) or boosting news about our new client (like Confederation Centre of Canada), we feel we can rely on the IAN network.
