The Holini Story
The average annual employee turnover rate in PPC agencies is 30 percent, meaning a substantial portion of employees are unhappy — they’re craving professional development, are underpaid, over-booked and forced to work on accounts they aren’t passionate about.
Unhappy employees rarely stay in their jobs for long so agencies fill vacancies with interns and junior specialists. Naturally, the expertise is not comparable and a decline in quality soon follows.
When founding Holini, our goal was to break the agency status quo and do something unheard of – make the team members’ happiness our no. 1 priority.
This means constant learning, fair pay, only working with carefully chosen clients and ensuring no-one is over-booked. And yes, this means sacrificing short term gains but we’re playing the long game.
Happy people make happy clients. Scroll down to meet the Holini team.
