Agency life is known for its fast pace and demanding clients, and I know from personal experience how burnout can completely de-rail you. As I slowly return recovery, I invited Cat Burchmore onto the podcast to help me learn how I could prevent burnout as a business owner by leaning on automation more. In this episode we explore how implementing automation strategies can help you avoid burnout and take control of your well-being. Cat shares her insights on how automating tasks like client onboarding, invoicing, and project management can free up your time, reduce stress, and improve your overall work-life balance. Of course automation isn't just about making your life easier – it's also about providing a better experience for your clients. Cat shares how automation can help you deliver a more personalised and efficient service, without sacrificing the human touch. Heck in this day and age we all need a more human touch!

In this episode I interview Ilia from Toggl to discover why those assumptions are wrong. We discuss real-world examples of how time tracking provides valuable data to help agencies work more efficiently, provide better project estimates, optimise team members' time, identify profitable versus unprofitable clients, and ultimately achieve better profitability and work-life balance. Ilia shares tips on how agency owners can implement time tracking in a way that gets buy-in from employees and avoids it feeling punitive. If you think time tracking is a drag that holds your agency back, this myth-busting episode will surprise you and highlight the many bottom-line benefits tracking time can unlock!

You deliver an exceptional website, only to watch the client fade away, turning what could have been a fruitful, ongoing collaboration into a fleeting transaction. But what if there was a way to turn that one-time project into a long-term partnership? In this episode, we explore an often-overlooked tool that can transform your client relationships and significantly boost your agency's recurring revenue. Providing a <a href="https://theadminbar.com/products/wom/" target="_blank">website owners manual</a> with web builds can help educate clients on what is involved in keeping their website maintained, performing, and delivering results for them. As clients recognise the value and what is involved, they are significantly more likely to take up your maintenance and support services, allowing you to develop a long lasting relationship.

Trying to build a business that will support the life you want for you and your family, but never quite getting there? You're not alone. Many of us are caught in this relentless cycle, believing that success is just around the corner if we work harder, grow bigger. But what if there's another way? My guest in today's episode, Daniel Hutt, found himself in the same exhausting cycle. A seasoned content marketing expert and the current head of content for Zero to Mastery, Daniel dared to question the status quo.

Life is so precious. We spend much of it working hard and long hours. This impacts our mental health and our relationships deeply. Add lockdown to the mix and those who were already struggling with various mental illnesses are struggling so much more than many of us can possibly understand. I am grateful for the wonderful communities around us that help us all stay in touch. Shout out Facebook communities such as: - GoWP - WPBuilds - Admin Bar - And so many others Who allow us to feel connected and give us access to others to share what’s going on in our lives. We will all know someone who’s struggling at this time. I for myself have gotten so wrapped up with things, I often forget to check in on those I care about! Lockdown has been a miserable time for so many, so much more than most of us can comprehend. If you do not struggle with mental health, it’s hard to put yourself into the mindset of those of whom are in a dangerous place right now. Our lives are so busy, we have huge responsibilities, others that rely on us and so much more. We can be blind to what might be happening around us. We as a family have been reminded of the affects of mental health in such a tragic way. Life is so precious. Once it is extinguished, you can’t get it back. You can’t fix things. You can’t do what you wish you could have done. You are left with deep loss and regret. I’d like this episode to do one of two things: First if you are lonely and struggling with your mental health in any way, please connect with Big Orange Heart or a local mental health charity. Please also talk to your family or friends, even if you feel they will not understand. Please don’t struggle alone. People may not understand initially but talking will surely help over time. You are so valuable, wonderful and important. You are a wonderful talented individual who brings so much worth to your family, friends, business and the world. <a href="https://www.bigorangeheart.org" target="_blank">https://www.bigorangeheart.org</a> Second, if you are not struggling but are aware someone might be, can I encourage you to connect with them no matter what else might be going on around you. Again the charity Big Orange Heart is a great place to give your time in supporting others and learning how to be more aware of what people might be going through. <a href="https://www.bigorangeheart.org" target="_blank">https://www.bigorangeheart.org</a> Things are still so fresh, we don’t understand so much, we are heartbroken and there will be a long road ahead of healing for the family. I hope these thoughts encourage the community to reach out to each other more, even popping up at peoples homes or arranging a meeting somewhere. Bills and other responsibilities can be dealt with later. Life is so precious. Love you folks.

In this episode Matt deep dives into the anatomy of a funnel and what the essential ingredients are.

(Check out one of my recent rants on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onODSeHnL2Y" target="_blank">YouTube</a>). Based on this, I give Matt a hard time asking him to help me understand how funnels can be of benefit, and how they can help both the prospect and our own business.

It is assumed that our target audience does not exist locally so it is a complete waste of time rocking up to a local breakfast meeting. Paul Landa and Lee smash that assumption sharing their stories of how they have used networking to grow their agencies. On the back of the large network that Paul has established, he shares the early days and weeks of his new venture, <a href="https://mywebpal.co.uk/" target="_blank">My Web Pal</a>, a pay monthly web build service.

Running an agency can often keep us away from those we love and can have a huge impact on our own mental health, our relationships and in turn our businesses. Today I talk with Justin, a single parent, who shares how he was able to go from busy web agency to an agency focused primarily on servicing and supporting websites on retainers. He also unpacks his productised builds to allow him to offer a clearly priced and positioned web build that allows him and his growing team to be super efficient.

Perhaps we feel overwhelmed by the challenge, or perhaps we feel held back because of things that have happened to us. Meet Kelly a close friend of mine who has overcome so much in her life to achieve success that has had huge impact for many people including myself. From a humble background, Kelly had to overcome insurmountable odds since her childhood to achieve the success she enjoys today. That includes surviving from sexual abuse at her teens for over a decade, overcoming cultural male-male-dominated corporate career (such as no ladies room built in at Executive Floor), to countless objections in the entrepreneurial journey because of her non-non-English accent. Kelly has coached and consulted purpose-driven entrepreneurs and organisation leaders to design profitable businesses that make impactful changes over four continents since 2008.

In this mastermind we focused on targeting the right sort of clients by looking at existing ones, and where they can be found online. We also discussed content marketing and creation strategies. The format is a relaxed 1 - 2 hour conversation where we get different folks on asking questions and we have open discussion. This recording is taken from where Mark asks a range of questions on social media, content and finding where his target clients are. If you'd like to be on the next mastermind, <a href="https://agencytrailblazer.com/#at-join" target="_blank">join the community here</a>. We also discussed ARENA for the creation of compelling landing pages: Affinity Show the reader you understand their problem Example: Are you an agency owner making big profits for everyone else but not yourself? Reassure Offer hope and reassurance that there is a way. You can provide a case study to help illustrate. Example: Chris was so busy creating websites he didn't even have time to market his own. Using our 4 pillars Chris was able to generate new leads with clients that paid well and freed up his time to work on the business. Easy win(s) Provide some value, some easy wins that will help people towards solving their issue. Small actionable items that they can do that will not necessarily solve their full problem, but will allow them to do something positive. This gets them used to the idea of implementation, and taking back control. That feeling of accomplishing something is very positive and powerful. Nutshell Wrap everything up in a nutshell with a reminder of the benefits. Example: As you can see by taking simple steps today you can take your agency to next level Action Provide them the ability to act. A "call to action". This could be a form, a purchase etc. Example: Apply today --- OUR EVENT: Do you want to make real change in your business?

In this episode I share with you our recent discoveries, the mistakes we've been making and what we've done about it. Over the last two years I’ve kept on doing the same thing and found we’ve begun to stagnate. Twitter has languished in the 2k follower mark. Traffic to our websites from social media has been dropping. For example month shows 98% traffic being search engine or direct traffic and 2% being from social postings. (Saving grace is that Google has been driving more traffic to our sites that we could ever have imagined but that is a whole different podcast). Don't panic, it's not all doom and gloom. Social networking on Facebook is consistenty generating us leads, but our reach to new people, and the building of the brand via other social platforms had come to a near full stop. In todays show, I share with you lessons we have learned and illustrated what we were doing wrong where approriate.

Michael MacGinty has been running his agency for 20 years, but was only introduced to all the amazing online groups once his business pivoted to WordPress. Michael’s takeaways: Get yourself out there. All you need is wifi so don’t be stuck in one place. You can be more creative in a different space rather than staying in the same one all the time. It is hard to achieve work life balance but if you are doing something you love then it doesn’t feel like work, you can integrate them both; work and family life. Communities allow you to share issues and solutions, and also connect with others that share the same circumstances. We don’t know what we don’t know and communities allow you to put your questions out there and someone in the community will come along and help.

In this workshop we talk through basic cost management and how we keep our finger on our financial pulse to make informed decisions and ensure we have a good balanced approach to work and play. PROFIT AND LOSS It is essential to know the current state of play. What do you have coming in? What is going out? This allows you to: <ul><li>Understand your business as it currently is</li><li>Predict the next 12 months of operation</li><li>See where you can make savings to increase profits</li><li>Be pre-warned of any upcoming rough months</li><li>Removes the guess work</li><li>Be purposeful in your planning</li></ul> Knowing your business allows you to make relevant decisions in both spending and in cutting costs. Resources: <ul><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RT80ABUMO6U" target="_blank">Bookkeeping Master Series</a></li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuL0dWfd7Jk" target="_blank">CatewayCFO – Financial Projection</a></li><li><a href="https://www.someka.net/excel-template/profit-and-loss-statement-template/" target="_blank">Profit and Loss Template</a></li><li><a href="https://agencytrailblazer.com/protected-directory/costs/ProfitLoss.xlsx" target="_blank">Our own P&L Template</a></li></ul> CREATING A BUDGET Without a clearly planned budget, you are going to be making purchasing decisions blindly. Planning purchases, SaaS subscriptions and new hires based on what is in the bank at any one time is inefficient and likely to bite you on the behind. The steps to creating a budget can be broken down into: <ul><li>Add together all your incoming revenue channels (grab your P&L)</li><li>Sales</li><li>Affiliate income</li><li>And so on</li><li>Record all of your regular costs (grab your P&L)</li><li>Rent</li><li>Salaries</li><li>Insurances</li><li>Software licences</li><li>Etc</li><li>Set a prediction for variable expenses</li><li>For example costs that are less predictable like contractors</li><li>Establish any up-coming one-off purchases</li><li>New laptop</li><li>Upcoming compliance consultancy</li><li>Finally get all this information in one place, keep it updated and review it regularly</li></ul> Freshbooks have put together <a href="https://www.freshbooks.com/blog/the-5-step-plan-to-creating-a-balanced-business-budget?t=g2gl2q35lu7k7dir" target="_blank">this fantastic article</a> to get you started. GETTING ADVICE If you are either struggling to get the data together, or are not sure how to read what you see, then consider getting in help. We often can’t see the wood for the trees. It’s very easy to miss things in our calculations. Equally without financial experience, we may misinterpret what we see. Despite running financial data in agency life for years, I still lean on my accountant for regular advice and to sanity check my planning and my predictions. It pays to have an expert on board. SUMMARY The keys to cost management are <ul><li>Knowing what you are earning and spending</li><li>Ensuring your spends are worth while and have value</li><li>Having planned budgets and sticking to them</li><li>Seeking regular advice</li></ul> --- OUR EVENT: Do you want to make real change in your business?

This can be very unfulfilling, and can in some cases lead to a breakdown of the client relationship when things go wrong. Jeffery realised he was not charging for the amazing value he provided, so he pivoted and <a href="https://maintain.press/" target="_blank">MaintainPress</a> was born. A great and insightful episode where Jeffery even turns the tables and starts interviewing Lee! Be sure to join Jeffery’s Facebook group <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/digitalagencyprofits/" target="_blank">here</a>, a place for freelancers and digital agency owners to connect, collaborate, and share strategies for growing their business. Takeaways: You can’t work for free forever. The more automation/systems you can put in place, the more your business can grow. If your business is not profitable for you, you need to make a change. Take a step back and look at your pain points and how you can solve them.

Phillis Benson shares her journey and the do’s and dont’s she learned along the way. From managing teams to generating leads through networking, Phillis shares a wide range of advice. Takeaways: Networking is a brilliant way to meet new people and generate new opportunities. Do the stuff you are passionate about, and let others do the things you are not so good at. In team scenarios, creates a living breathing document where everyone has their own content they are in charge of updating. This becomes your company manual/bible.

Lee and Pete share their experiences of pricing and projects in agency life. They unpack a range of thought processes about pricing including the controversial "essence of a true deal" concept. "The essence of a true deal is when neither party is truly satisfied." Some of the personal views expressed: (These are opinions not fact) If they can't afford your price then don't meet them in the middle - help them find someone else they can afford. Talk about money upfront. Understand their expectations in terms of budget. otherwise you will give a whole load of value before you even know if they can afford it. Understand your value. What is value that you are happy to give away for free time and time again to people. There is a difference between people that can't afford you and those who have a higher budget that want to knock some money off. The essence of a true deal is when neither party is truly satisfied. Takeaways: Any opportunity is an opportunity to further yourself. Even if it leads nowhere you get to learn from that experience for the future. Never trust just one stream of income as you are putting all your eggs in one basket. Feedback can be scary but it can also make you grow. Feel the fear and do it anyway. Push on and get some feedback.

It is a journey and get lost many times along the way. Here is what I practice: My To Do Book _ list things to be achieved _ review first thing _ what needs to be moved along a day _ be realistic Work Hours _ early routine like meditation, prayer etc _ spend first few hours before 9am achieving items that need focus _ calls for first couple of hours _ regular calendar appointments for things like podcasts etc _ lunch is not optional _ 5pm finish is not optional * _ sometimes some evening work is needed. I'm an entrepreneur who is growing a business and part of the journey means I have to put in the extra hours. This is not defeat, its a necessary part of the journey. Projects _ we use a combination of tools _ freedcamp _ iTask3 (Similar to microsoft project) _ weekly meeting on Mondays chaired by Larissa _ advice from Dan Connors regularly to help train our team and evolve our processes Content Generation _ I create monthly goals _ each week I ensure I do some small actions to work toward whatever goal I have Social Media _ meet edgar _ advice from Sarah People _ daily conversations _ project tasks clearly owned _ project manager per project Links Mentioned: Dan Connors - Project Management - <a href="http://dan-connors.com/" target="_blank">http://dan-connors.com/</a> Sarah Moore - Social Media Legend - <a href="http://elevenlightsmedia.com.au/" target="_blank">http://elevenlightsmedia.com.au/</a> Meet Edgar - Social Media Automation - <a href="https://meetedgar.com/" target="_blank">https://meetedgar.com/</a> --- OUR EVENT: Do you want to make real change in your business?

Heather is a serial entrepreneur and is regarded as a top authority on internet marketing, business strategies and marketing. Since marketing her first online business in 1999, bringing together clients and personal coaches, she has played an active role in the online marketing world since before most even had a home computer. Today he shares fascinating insights into how to grow your business, through the sales process. She likens the process of designing and building a website to the tried and tested real estate market. The parallels are mind blowing, the knowledge immense! Lets do this! You can’t teach and sell. Teachers "suck" at selling. Why? They are teaching the how, loosing the person listening, and failing to communicate the results. Sharing is selling. Share the vision, the results your client can expect, that they can get excited about and buy into. Share the plan, the top level of what actions you will take without going super tech. Don’t teach the concept, tell the results they can expect. They are paying you to do the how, they don't need to be taught it. Action You Can Apply Today: For every to-do you have, ask yourself this question: Is it going to strengthen my clarity or chaos. If you create clarity in your life it creates confidence and clarity in your business creates growth.

Meet Dennis Brown from Linked Academy. He shares fascinating insights into how he developed his Linkedin lead generating system, and how to optimise your profile. Let's connect on the WP Innovator Facebook Group over on: http://leejacksondev.com/group Core takeaways: Pitch yourself, differentiate yourself. Don’t be the typical salesman and force your ideas on a potential client. Don’t treat your Linkedin profile as a resume, instead position yourself as a resource, an expert, an authority. Lead with value and solutions, and it will position you as the go to guy/gal people will turn to. Post updates that are specific to your target audience, share relevant content consistently and you will create a familiarity to your network. Action You Can Apply Today: Get out of your comfort zone. Market yourself on various platforms. Convert your digital connections offline so you can build a rapport immediately. Sales is relational, provide solutions for people.

This can lead to a feast and famine culture within an agency. It's really important that we develop ongoing strategies for lead generation, and keeping that pipeline looking healthy. Let's connect: We have launched a free but private Facebook group where we can all connect to discuss episodes, as well as questions and more. Lets create a community of peers that support each other and add value! See you at: <a href="http://leejacksondev.com/group" target="_blank">http://leejacksondev.com/group</a> Show Notes: In this episode we explore, with Sarah Moore, content marketing as one of the main activities an agency can invest their time, money and effort in to generate results. Find out the answers to questions such as: _ What is one of your strategies that you use as a social media consultant _ Why is content marketing so important _ What does content marketing actually involve _ How much content should you produce _ Could you give us some examples of how you can re-purpose content Connect with Sarah: Twitter - Corporate: <a href="https://twitter.com/elevenlights" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/elevenlights</a> Twitter - Direct: <a href="https://twitter.com/the_sarah_moore" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/the_sarah_moore</a> Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/elevenlightsmedia" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/elevenlightsmedia</a> --- OUR EVENT: Do you want to make real change in your business?
