What is revenue per employee?
Total revenue divided by the number of full-time staff - a quick benchmark of how productively an agency turns people into income.

Why it matters to agencies: revenue per employee is a fast read on efficiency and pricing power - it rises when an agency raises rates, lifts utilisation or productizes, and stagnates when it grows by simply hiring. It is one of the cleanest numbers for spotting whether scale is actually paying off.
Revenue per employee = total revenue ÷ number of full-time-equivalent staff
