The year 2020 brought a slew of new challenges for production companies to contend with. In addition to the existing chaos of production, business owners across the advertising industry needed to adapt – and fast – to the new reality of the world.
The role of an accounting department needed to shift too. The ordinary course of business had changed seemingly overnight as companies had to make decisions in real time that would affect their trajectories: Should we continue with plans to open a new office? How long can we operate if production doesn’t pick back up? Can we seize this moment to make and train new hires?
Slow, retrospective accounting was no longer relevant.
The industry needed a new approach to accounting, grounded in honesty and partnership, with an eye toward operational strategy. SYZYGY was born to address the changing concerns of owners and MDs in the advertising industry by offering a collaborative, process-oriented service.
