💋 First call is TODAY 10/29: Join Skip the Sales Call for $37/month and learn how to turn your Instagram Stories + DMs into sales. This year, I went from basically zero recurring revenue and $3K–$5K cash months to a team of 20, 20 clients, and $68,800 in sales in October alone. And no, scaling did not feel cute while I was doing it. There were 10-hour days, 12-hour days, moments where I genuinely wondered if I could handle the business I was building, and a LOT of figuring shit out as we went. But I also learned something really important: at a certain point, growing your business means you cannot keep being the person responsible for every department. In this episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of what scaling my agency actually looked like — including how I built my team, the order I recommend hiring in, why your team might become one of the most important parts of your business, and the HUGE department I see entrepreneurs forget about when they start hiring: sales. Because you can hire a VA. You can hire an OBM. You can hire someone for social media, email marketing, branding, and operations. But who the f**k is actually closing the leads? We’re talking about when to hire sales support, building a sales team, creating recurring revenue, getting yourself out of client delivery and operations, and figuring out the actual role you want to have as your business grows. I’m also sharing why scaling wasn’t really optional for me. At $10K months, I could take about four clients, pay taxes and expenses, work my ass off, and still barely have anything left over. There had to be another way. And there was. Now I’m getting to experience what I actually wanted from this business: bringing in sales, serving more clients, paying an incredible team, and knowing the whole f*****g thing doesn’t crumble if I decide I don’t want to work tonight. In this episode, we get into: How I went from $3K–$5K cash months to $28K+ cash months and $68.8K in salesWhat building a 20-person team actually looked like behind the scenesThe hiring order I see most online business owners followWhy sales needs to be part of your hiring and scaling planWhen it might be time to hire sales support instead of closing every lead yourselfWhy I prioritize my team so heavily as we scaleHow I’m getting myself out of day-to-day operations and client deliveryThe reality of scaling an agency when you’re f*****g terrified to do itWhy your business growth will eventually require you to decide what YOUR actual job isWhat I learned after trying — and failing — to scale an agency beforeIf you're growing your business and thinking, “Okay, but how the f**k am I supposed to keep doing all of this?” — this episode is for you.
