What do you believe? What does your agency believe? How does all that affect your growth, scalability, and the way people talk about your brand? In this video, I'll talk all about how your outward image affects your ability to grow and work with your ideal clients. So, Gillette came out with a new commercial recently and there's been a ton of talk about it - positive and negative. Whether it's a publicity stunt or a real statement of their core values, I think there's a lot we can learn. If you're not familiar with the commercial, check it out here: https://youtu.be/koPmuEyP3a0 Gillette has taken a stand on the "Me Too" movement and used it to spin their 30-year-old tagline "The best a man can get" into "The best a man can BE." It reminds me of the spot Nike did awhile back with Colin Kaepernick (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fq2CvmgoO7I) standing up against social injustice. Nike took a stand, got people talking, and sales have skyrocketed. A lot of people are criticizing Nike and Gillette for taking a stand and speaking out. I won't tell you where my opinions lie on these topics, but there is a lesson to be learned. Whether you agree or disagree - they got us talking. Good or bad, we're talking about Nike and Gillette. We believe that with the right processes and systems, you can grow and scale your agency to whatever size you'd like. But we also believe that you have to know where you're going by having clarity on what you want for your agency. That's why we're always creating content around these topics and that's our "WHY". So, our followers know our why and know what we stand for. And if we take a stand on something that turns people away then those aren't the people we wanted anyway. Look, your agency isn't for everyone. You cannot help everyone so it's better that you focus your time, energy, and resources on the ones you actually can help. When you take on just the right clients that believe what you believe in. They'll pay you what you're worth and it'll be amazing for growth. Take a stance, figure out where you're going, why you're doing it and what you believe in. Don't be afraid to stay true to yourself and believe in it. Don't let the internet trolls and nay-sayers scare you. Just go ahead and Swenk it! So what do you stand for? What does your agency believe in? Comment below and tell me.
