In this episode, Lindsay and Carey discuss the importance of focusing on agency growth and business strategy, emphasizing the need for agency owners to work on their business rather than just in it. They explore the challenges of risk assessment within agencies, highlighting how many agencies struggle to identify their own risks despite being adept at assessing client risks. The discussion also covers key metrics for agency health, such as retention and profitability, and the necessity of creating space for strategic thinking. Finally, they stress the importance of delegation and intentionality in managing time and resources effectively.
