In 2018, I was broke, 200k in debt, and working an unfulfilling full-time job. I started a content creation agency and scaled it from 1 freelancer to a team of 30+ in just 4 short years. Now I run Australia’s fastest-growing agency: rivyl. As a guy who runs an agency working with global brands and celebrities, I decided to start interviewing people who take Agency personally and professionally over their lives. To unpack what exactly entrepreneurs are doing to get ahead in business within an extremely busy marketplace. My goal is to unearth the tactics, mindset, and motives that make high performers tick so you can get a leg up and take Agency with whatever you’re doing. Agency is about taking massive action against all odds and making business work in your favor so you can win.

Plus, he uncovers the uncontested "outer rim" search paths your customers actually use.
