Digital Agency Show Podcast: How To Be An Agency Of One

I’m thrilled to be featured on The Digital Agency Show podcast with Brent Weaver from Ugurus. In this episode Brent and I discuss what it takes to be an “Agency of One” solopreneur and how to make a full time income on a part time schedule.

• Why going back to a “real” job vs. growing my consulting business wasn’t an option
• How I started my business despite not being able to commit to more than 20 hours per week
• The difference between thinking of yourself as a business owner vs. thinking of yourself as a freelancer
• Recovering from the biggest challenge that almost closed down my business
• How outreach can help consultants get clients, as well as other strategies I’ve used
• Why consistency is important in all aspects of your business
• How blogging has helped me stay current in the field
• Why it’s so important to keep your clients involved in all stages of a UX design project

Why You Should Listen

It’s all about freedom. Freedom to choose what you work on and when you work on it, even if life introduces some unexpected constraints. Ironically, constraints make everything possible. They force you to focus on what really matters.

If you’ve followed my blog for any length of time, you know that Brent and Ugurus have made a very positive impact on my life and business over the last two years.

In 2015 I attended the Ugurus 10k Bootcamp and it probably saved my company. I literally had to start over from scratch that summer due to some family health issues. Listen to the podcast to get the full story.

I have no affiliate relationship with Ugurus and highly recommend their program to anyone looking to take their digital agency or consulting business to the next level.

Last but not least, I’m honored to be a part of The Digital Agency Show podcast and so grateful for everything I’ve learned from Brent and his awesome team.

Enjoy the show and let me know what you think!
