This is the second time we have had Russ on the show although in between he grew Design Pickle from $100k MRR to $500k+ MRR.

Needless to say, Russ is crushing it.

In this episode we talk more about how Russ has grown as an individual in order to get his company to this level.

We talk about Russ's new book The Sober Entrepreneur which I highly recommend.

And we riff on many of the other lessons Russ has learned through building up his Design Pickle empire.

In this episode I am honored to bring you AJ Wilcox of B2Linked.com.

AJ shares all of his secrets and best practices when it comes to LinkedIn ads and how he has built up one of the top LinkedIn advertising agencies in the world in a relatively short period of time.

As crazy as it sounds, I am a geek when it comes to taxes. I leverage every possible thing I can when it comes to deductions and have event spent two years of my life abroad to reduce my taxes.

That is why I am excited to bring you this interview with Craig Cody where we talk about all of the opportunities that small business owners have for tax deductions.

This episode is full of tax specific advice for U.S. residents so hopefully you find it useful.

In this episode of the Working Without Pants podcast I am honored to bring you this amazing interview with David Turner of Turner Duckworth.

You may have seen the work that David's firm has created before...

They are only responsible for Coca Cola's iconic branding and the Amazon logo...

Yes, that's right. They did the freaking Amazon logo.

This interview is incredible as we dive into David's journey, how he has built up such an incredible company and company culture.

I hope you enjoy!

One of the biggest challenges with running a done-for-you B2B lead generation service is seeing a lot of leads NOT turn into sales calls and never have the chance to become closed deals.

The goal of this interview is to make sure you don’t end up in the position where more leads are hurting your business. I want you to be able to handle more leads, have more sales calls, and close more deals with confidence.

This is part 2 in our 3-part series on LinkedIn lead generation.

In this episode, we’re going to dive in on how to use outbound connection requests to generate leads and conversations on LinkedIn.

Welcome to the first of a 3-part solo series on Linkedin prospecting.

As you know, one of the main areas I focus on is helping agencies and consultants get new clients. While I used LinkedIn a lot for research, I didn’t really know much about using it for lead generation.

I decided to change that, and after implementing tactics and strategies to do this, I had 40 strong leads and closed at least $30,000 in business in just a few months.

In this episode, I’m going to talk about profile optimization and how to ramp up traffic to your LinkedIn profile.

I am super excited to have Justin Ahrens of Rule 29 on the show today.

On the side of his firm, Justin launched an initiative called Wheels 4 Water, where he’s raised over $200,000 for a non-profit focused on providing clean drinking water in Africa.

What’s cool about our conversation today is that Justin shares why it’s easier to set up a non-profit by not actually setting one up. We also talk about why Justin started this initiative and how it’s opened up big doors for his primary agency.

If you are in a spot where you want to do more good in your business and see it grow as you do that, this is the episode for you.

If you’re in the early stages of your creative agency, you are going to get a ton of value out of this episode.
