In this episode, I discuss how you can align your agency’s marketing efforts with one of the four agency archetypes: scrappy, traditional, collaborator, and lone wolf.
I discuss how to customize and automate marketing efforts to generate consistent leads, using tools and insights applicable to each archetype, and key marketing strategies for each type include sprint methods and automation for scrappy agencies, leveraging existing assets and long-term planning for traditional agencies, prioritizing partnerships and relationship-building for collaborator agencies, and focusing on niche specialization and the use of high-value resources for lone wolves.
