24 Seven Consolidates New Business Efforts of Three Acquired Agencies

Talent staffing firm 24 Seven has consolidated the new business efforts of its three acquired agencies—SketchDeck, Markacy, and Futureman—into a unified leadership team under the new 24 Seven Agencies group. The move aims to streamline client pitches and cross-sell services while keeping each agency's distinct capabilities. Clients, including a golf brand and a Fortune 500 financial services firm, are expanding their engagements across multiple agencies. The combined new business pipeline leverages 24 Seven's staffing client base. The agencies continue to pursue both smaller projects and larger RFPs, with some deals exceeding $10 million. The integration also includes support from 24 Seven's Sage unit for in-house client work, and staffing flexibility is maintained through a substantial bench of contractors rather than full-time hires.
