The Anti-Agency Agency + High ROI Customer Acquisition
Podcast 1:26:37 | Download | Spotify| Stitcher | iTunes
Vince Nguyen joins Dan to share how he resurrected his agency from semi-retirement and in the first month resumed making 5+ figures per client. He runs his agency solo and shares some of his biggest hacks for success. Vince essentially delivers a masterclass in running a successful solo-agency as well as how to improve Facebook Ads for your business (hint: it’s pretty simple!).
But first, Dan & Ian have some fun catching up about some big company news and how to operate on a profit-first system from day one and why that’s actually critical for scale.
They also talk about two trending ways for finding and connecting with customers that are leading to more sales, that you can implement as early as today.
