In today's cost-conscious episode of Agency Launch, Matt takes you through the critical exercise of auditing your agency's expenses to ensure financial health and optimal cash flow. He shares his own experiences and the revelations that come from scrutinizing outgoing costs, driving home the principle that in business, it's not just what you make, but what you keep. Matt discusses the importance of distinguishing between essential tools that drive income and the shiny allure of tech solutions that may not add value to your agency. He candidly recounts his decision to cancel services like agency Zoom, which, despite their potential, weren't contributing to his bottom line. With a focus on practicality, Matt champions the use of simple, cost-effective tools like Google Sheets and spiral notebooks for task management over more complex systems, questioning the need for high-cost tech when affordable or existing solutions can do the job. He encourages listeners to consider whether each expense is truly making them more money or saving time. Matt also shares his success with tools like BombBomb for video outreach, illustrating the impact of selecting the right tech that aligns with your business model. This episode is a call to action for all agents to rigorously evaluate their expenses and to think creatively about how to maximize resources.
