Ep. 24 - From JobKeeper to Founder: The Unexpected Path to Building a 6-Figure Marketing Agency ft. Emma Reeves
In this episode, we’re joined by Emma Reeves, Director and Founder of Excelerate Marketing, a digital agency helping service-based businesses grow through strategy-led marketing.
Emma talks about how she turned the uncertainty of JobKeeper into the catalyst for launching her own agency, how saying yes to every client nearly burned her out in year one, and why defining company values early is one of the smartest moves a new business owner can make.
She also discusses how to manage remote teams while building a strong culture, how to handle unresponsive clients without derailing progress, and the difference between doing "marketing" and actually communicating value.
If you want to learn how to launch a business with clarity, avoid the common traps of early growth, and build a brand clients trust, make sure to listen to this episode!
