Growth marketing is one of the most essential services agencies can offer their clients. However, to provide professional services, you must develop a structured growth plan for your agency. So how can you scale your business to optimize your services and maximize sales?
When structuring his agency for growth, Jim Huffman referenced Nathan Barry’s framework for wealth creation. This model regards agency growth as a ladder in which you begin as an employee, start to market services, productize those services, and then sell products before progressing into a SaaS platform. The wealth creation ladder allowed Jim to productize growth as a service by offering his clients web pages, ads, and emails. By implementing this approach, you can scale effectively and generate new clients.
