How can experience in corporate sales roles and a digital marketing side hustle become the foundation for a thriving 7-figure consulting firm? Phil Risher, founder of Phlash Consulting, shares his unique journey, which included running a personal finance blog, living in a converted school bus, and dramatically boosting a client's business before launching his own consultancy focused on home service businesses.

Phil reveals the strategic thinking behind his service model and how he differentiates his firm. He emphasizes embracing the consulting aspect over being just another agency: "I could have called it Phlash Digital... but I didn't. I called it Phlash Consulting. Why? Because we're a consulting company. We take your data, we analyze your data, we make decisions, we help you grow your business. We're not just a cookie-cutter digital marketing company." Today, Phil details his path to building an 11-person team and achieving 7-figure revenues.
