ANECDOTE

Scaling Challenges

  • Ryan Deiss had three companies on the Inc. 5000 list simultaneously.
  • Two failed within 24 months due to scaling issues, not market failure.
ADVICE

Automate Fulfillment

  • Agency owners should focus on systematizing and automating either client acquisition or fulfillment.
  • Start with fulfillment, as it doesn't directly generate revenue.
ADVICE

Systems Before People

  • Avoid hiring an operations manager to fix fulfillment issues without established systems.
  • Implement systems first; good people can't fix broken systems, but broken systems break good people.
