The reasons you mentioned are exactly what made me shut my agency in 2023. More burnout, more stress, less scalability, less fulfillment in work. This year I upskilled in multiple other areas apart from my original skills and now working towards more scalable ventures like digital products, microSaaS products, courses, and consultations. Anything that can be built once and sold at scale. Would like to see more videos from you on these diversified income sources for service providers.

I like this idea. I always struggle with this when it comes to my agency, Software development. I'm starting back up with content this month focused on my potential clients. This channel was sharing how I do things, which attracted an audience that doesn't have my ideal clients in it.
@FilledStacks
@FilledStacks 21 күн бұрын
For instance, showing my expertise (in my head) means showing we have the skills to develop the software. But, the client doesn't understand programming 😅 so then I'm showing expertise to other experts and not reaching my ideal audience. But, that's what I'm figuring out now. Topics for my new content.

Great insight - Learn real value from clients' perspectives not ours. Greg, you mentioned in another video running ads to generate leads. Curious: What platform do you recommend your clients run ads on? Did you run ads on FB, IG, other? In the past we've run ads on FB but our main platform is LinkedIn. LinkedIn is not a cost-effective platform on which to run ads. What's your lead gen approach?
@gregoryjhickman
@gregoryjhickman Ай бұрын
Thanks, glad you found it useful. I've historically focused ads on Meta (FB/IG), Ive done some Google/YT in the past and plan on doing a little bit more with Discovery ads here on YT. I've tried LI but haven't tried long enough or hard enough to rule it out. we have clients seeing success with LI ads but I've heard many share what you said about it. I think that has more to do with the "funnel" than the platform though. I have a new video coming out next week on our lead gen approach so be sure to subscribe!

Amazing content, thank you! I watched the whole video and will watch it again. I relate to the part where you mentioned the downsides of hiring. In my experience hiring more people forced me to spend time on managing teammates and service delivery instead of focusing on becoming a better expert in my niche. My biggest takeaway is this: create more content around my niche and create a productized service offer instead of offering custom solutions for every client.
