Power up your business with better quality clients, with Brent Weaver
Brent Weaver has built, run and sold digital agencies and now runs UGurus where he works with digital agency owners around the world helping them learn to sell better quality projects. I’ve been following Brent for years so it was a real treat to spend some time with him. In business you fall or you stand based largely on your ability to sell. Most of us sadly suck at sales and those of us that don’t often end up selling the wrong things. Buckle up for a sales masterclass.
About Brent.
Brent Weaver leads the vision for UGURUS, a business school for digital agencies. He creates educational programs that help agency owners work on their business to drive additional revenues, increase profits, and create freedom in their life. He built his first website at 15, and created his first web-design business at 17. That company grew into a successful, 14-person web agency that was acquired in 2012. Since then, Brent has helped thousands of other digital agencies master business skills.
