If I could go back in time and change the way I did things building my agency, I would have done a few things different.
Here are 25 things that I would have done better → that I didn’t do enough and I regret today on day 71
- Invest more — -> faster (specially on staff)
- Scale my cold emailing strategy. (build system, hire people, set and forget)
- Write more (yeah for real)
- Write outside Medium (I love medium but focusing on Medium it’s not great)
- Build a Linkedin Group
- Build a funnel earlier
- Hire Australia staff from day 1
- Work harder in building a community (join my group on FB here)
- Building Guidelines and SOP from day #1 for my staff.
- Invest less in Software and more in procedures
- Drink less coffee (for real)
- Have a Content Calendar
- Be less romantic with my niche/client selection (some industries may seem awesome , specially when targeting new clients… but awesome doesn’t equal = profitable
- Do not offer Social media as a service . (there is not a lot of ROI on that)
- Avoid hiring overseas writers. (Stop outsourcing writing — -> do it all in house)
- Get a MacBook Pro 2017 since day one. Amazing machine. I love it
- Spend more time split testing everything.
- Workout
- Cancel more subscriptions.
- Do let’s “trials”
- Make more calls
- Do 100% cold calling
- Do webinars (not watch, but do)
- Sleep more
- Laugh more
