If you are thinking about creating a digital marketing agency you are going to need to know that the start is going to be tough like any other business. Not only do you have to learn everything such as client communication, getting leads, Facebook ads, etc. But over time the ball will get rolling and momentum will start to build until you will be able to charge a higher monthly retainer.

We are with Benji Copeland to talk about his experience as a digital marketing agency owner and how he has been able to progress his business after experimenting with e-commerce. One of the key things that Benji emphasized is the idea of giving away free information to build trust and brand equity.

In reality, 99% of the people will take your information, run away with it, and execute it, but in reality, there are still so many nuances that one has to learn based on your free information so people can't completely execute what you're sharing.

Another cool topic that is up for debate is should your marketing agency be niched down to one industry or should you work across any industry? This is a question that Benji answers in this episode.

I initially thought that you had to pay to play to grow on Instagram, but you don't have to if you are thinking long-term! Brock recommends to:

• Use hashtags but it shouldn't be the ultimate strategy to grow your account
• Focus on quality instead of quantity
• Be consistent over the long-term
• Collaborating with other people within your niche and the keyword is niche
• Focus your content on a niche subject which was something that Brock emphasized a lot

Going into this interview with Mina Elias, I thought that creating a supplement brand is a logistical nightmare because of the extra element of having your products approved by the FDA and how you market it, but in reality, with research, hustle, and determination you can do it too.

Mina Elias shares his story of how he went from being a chemical engineer to creating his own supplement brand "MMA Nutrition" around his strong interest in MMA. 

The cool thing about Mina is that he knows the best of the world of chemical engineering and MMA, so he is the perfect user to formulate his supplement. On top of that, he was obsessive with other brands and their ingredients, so with all of this knowledge, Mina found a gap in the market.

To fill this gap, Mina leveraged the Amazon marketplace and learned, brick by brick, how to grow his brand. Now he has formulated multiple products under his brand with different flavors and was able to quit his full-time job.
