The Agency Growth Podcast

When is it Time to Work for an Agency vs Owning One? (ft. Alec Smith) | Episode 062


Listen Later

On this special guest episode, we invite Alec Smith on the podcast; a former coworker and friend of ours at the agency we all worked at together in Iowa.


Alec brings a unique perspective to the show as he, like us, left the agency employment life and started his own freelance / agency.


However, after a while, even while proving to be successful on his own, he decided to give his clients a 30-day notice and work for another agency that wanted to bring him on as a full-time employee.


Alec explains his decision and why the business side of things no longer interested him, yet was able to find an agency to work for that gave him the autonomy, higher earning potential, and flexibility he was looking for when starting his own agency.


Alec also explains how he got into digital marketing, specifically PPC marketing almost by accident and his journey to where he is today.
