Episode: 16

Chapter Sixteen of Anyone, Not Everyone outlines the importance of the agency founder in leading the transition to vertical market specialization, emphasizing that early successes can be achieved with the existing team. It advises agency owners to deeply understand their chosen vertical market, embodying the values and knowledge that will inspire and guide the team.

The chapter also details functional skills required for each strategy phase, suggesting the use of internal resources first and contracting as a secondary option, with an 18-24 month expectation to build vertical market expertise. Hiring a vertical-specific salesperson is recommended for accelerating sales and achieving better results in the long term.

Reminder that this is a chapter in Corey Quinn’s book, Anyone, Not Everyone. Over the next few weeks, we'll be releasing a few chapters at a time so that you can escape founder-led sales.
