    improve your skills to the point where you become rare and prized

    When asked what led to his outstanding success as a comedian and actor, Steve Martin would reply, become "so good they can't ignore you."

    In other words, improve your skills to the point where you become rare and prized.

    Unfortunately, there are no hacks or shortcuts that I know of.

    But the sooner you focus your business on a vertical market, the sooner you'll become elite.

    “Is this a good fit for my agency?”

    I partner with founders who want to build something meaningful, not just a busier agency, but a stronger, more scalable business.

    You’re likely a strong fit if:

    • You’re generating $1M–$20M+ annually
    • You want to lead your market, not blend into it
    • You’re thinking about long-term scale, not short-term tactics
    • You want a growth engine that doesn’t rely on you
    • You value clarity over complexity
    • You’re open to advanced growth levers, including acquisitions
