  • No Price Tag on Peace - Building a Business with a Team Culture that You Love

    Send us Fan Mail

    Confidence plays a crucial role in being a business owner because we're constantly putting ourselves out there. It's natural to second-guess ourselves, and even just one piece of feedback can send us down a slippery slope of self-doubt. That's why positive self-talk is incredibly important. Having those internal conversations where you become your own biggest fan and continue to encourage yourself is key. You’ve probably heard this from mentors time and again: many of the problems we face in our small businesses are often a reflection of what's going on inside our own minds. It's all about mindset and overcoming the internal struggles. So, it's vital to cultivate that confidence and belief in yourself as a business owner. Remember, you've got what it takes to succeed! In this episode of the Agency Hour podcast, we’re thrilled to be joined by Jen Sakowski, Founder and chief officer of raneydaydesign.com. Jen is a former member of the Mavericks Club and now serves as a Mavericks Club Coach. In this episode, Jen discusses her journey of regaining confidence after becoming complacent in her business. She talks about the importance of managing mindset and embracing discomfort as a means of personal growth and also emphasises the value of peace and explains why it cannot be measured in monetary terms.If you’d like to chat with our team about growing you business, click the link and let's get to work.  https://www.agencymavericks.com/clarity-call

  • Staying Sane while Scaling Your Business: Insights from Entrepreneur Nathan Hirsch

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this week's episode of The Agency Hour Podcast, we had the privilege of sitting down with Nathan Hirsch, a successful entrepreneur and founder of several businesses including Outsource School, AccountsBalance, EcomBalance, and free-up.net.
    Nathan shared his remarkable story of how he started a successful business selling baby products on Amazon while still in college, and how he went on to create his own agency that helps people hire pre-vetted freelancers. He also talked about the challenges he faced while scaling his businesses, and how he managed to remain sane during the process.
    One of the key takeaways from the podcast was Nathan's advice on managing expectations by using your own language. As entrepreneurs, it's essential to communicate your vision and goals to your team members, clients, and stakeholders in a way that resonates with them and inspires them to take action. 
    Nathan also shared valuable insights on finding good software development talent, the common mistakes to avoid while hiring developers, and why entrepreneurs should never do their own bookkeeping. 
    The podcast is full of inspiring stories and practical tips for entrepreneurs who want to scale their businesses while maintaining their sanity. It's a must-listen for anyone who is looking to build a successful business or take their existing business to the next level.
