2 THINGS TO DO WHEN YOU HAVE TOO MUCH AGENCY WORK & YOU'RE TOO BUSY!

Are you too busy with agency work? Do you have too much going and not enough time to get it all done. That's a tell-tale sign that you're actually holding your agency back from healthy growth. In today's #AskSwenk video, I have Tiffany on the phone live. Her questions revolve around being too busy and having more work than she knows what to do with... My advice to Tiffany is two-fold: 1. Raise your prices. Literally, double or triple your prices depending on where you're pricing currently sits. Would you clients still get value if you raised your rates 2X or 3X? Also, what is the market's expectation for the service you offer? If you're too busy, you're not charging enough! 2. Hire a PM. You're probably trying to juggle the project management yourself because you don't have the funds to hire someone. Guess what? If you raise your prices, you will have enough to cover a PM's salary! :) This is a 2 prong approach -- raise prices on new clients coming in and then come up with a strategy for increasing prices on existing clients, with the understanding that you will lose some of them. (And that's OK because you want to work with fewer, higher paying clients.) When you do these 2 things, you can focus on the 5 roles of a CEO and stop being the agency owner who does everything herself. The actual roles of the Agency CEO are: 1. understand the financials 2. be the face of the company 3. mentor your team 4. communicate the vision 5. assisting sales That's it! So, raise your prices and hire a PM so you can ficus on working ON the business rather than being stuck IN the business. So what you going to do so you are less busy and making for money?
