Ep 159: The 6 Rules I Use to Build an Agency That Doesn't Depend on Me
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Summary:
What if the fastest way to grow your agency in 2026 is to stop doing so much? I unpack the six principles I'm using to create more leverage, protect my time, strengthen operations, and build a business that can perform without everything coming back to me.
Takeaways:
- How to find the low-value work quietly consuming your week and systematically remove it.
- The reason documenting your processes can be one of the biggest leverage plays in your agency.
- How to give your team clarity without turning yourself into a full time manager.
- Why retaining the right clients may be more powerful than simply chasing new ones.
- The weekly CEO ritual that keeps me focused on money, priorities, and decisions instead of operational weeds.
- How to create boundaries that stop your team from escalating every decision to you.
- The uncomfortable team audit that can reveal whether your people are actually helping you scale.
