When To Build A Leadership Team For A Growing Digital Marketing Agency

Posted by Mike Lieberman on Feb 21, 2020 9:31:21 AM

One of my favorite pastimes is talking to agency owners. I have casual conversations with agency owners a few times a week. I like hearing about their successes, their stories, their challenges and specifically, I like hearing the questions they’re wrestling with.

By the way, if you ever want to pick my brain or just chat for 30 minutes, I’ll talk to anyone, anytime. All you have to do is reach out.

Anyway, one of the more common sets of questions from owners is, “When do we need a leadership team? How do we go about building one? What should it look like?”

Posted by Mike Lieberman on Mar 27, 2019 7:14:00 AM

Having run an agency for over 16 years, it’s clear that today the agency business is harder than ever. One of the biggest challenges is differentiating your agency from other agencies.

Writing a book might be one way to both differentiate and create content at the same time.

The Inbound Agency Owner Checklist: Checking In On 2018 Progress

Posted by Mike Lieberman on Feb 21, 2018 7:03:00 AM

February is almost over. That means 18% of the year is behind you. How are you doing?

I get it, I ran an inbound marketing agency with less than $1 million in revenue for years. I was the marketing consultant, copywriter, and QA guy for years. I know that almost every day is a whirlwind of wearing different hats and putting out a variety of fires, just to keep the whole thing from coming crashing down. But that cycle is what keeps you from growing. You have to breakout and be the agency owner, leader or CEO.

Posted by Mike Lieberman on Feb 14, 2018 8:34:00 AM

Most of you know I’m from Philly (born and raised) and this might seem like a frivolous article that is taking advantage of my hometown team’s big Super Bowl win, but the reality of it is—there are lessons to be learned here and after years of working with inbound agency owners, there might be some significant lessons that can be applied to your inbound agencies immediately.

The Eagles weren’t the best team, they didn’t miss having to deal with significant injuries and no one expected them to win much of anything this year. They didn’t have the most experienced coaches, they didn’t have the best draft choices and they didn’t have the biggest budgets for players. All these factors were against them and they still won it all. How did they do it? What can we learn from their big win?
