Attention WordPress agency owners…or hopeful owners!

In today’s episode, I sit down with Jennifer Bourn of Bourn Creative and hash out what it takes to go from freelancer mode to agency mode. One of the lessons I’d like you to take away from this chat is sharpening your onboarding process.

That subtle, yet oh-so-important phase from the first e-mail contact up to price negotiations round. We’ll cover that and more in today’s episode!

Interview with Jennifer Bourn

Can you purchase one specific software package and get the magic key to organizing your business, getting more clients and generating more revenue? Acquiring a software package is just a the first step to creating a path or process called client onboarding. As Jennifer Bourn explains, she spent a year setting up the software package she selected for Bourn Creative with heaps of customized materials. She built a procedure to escort her carefully screened new clients through their journey of creating and launching their new website.
