How we build a team full of killers in our agency: (The secret that got us to $350k/mo) The hardest part about the agency game: Building a team It’s the biggest reason why I've seen mates struggle to scale. Or some burn down… Here's the approach I take: - - - 1. Hire the right people To build a high-performing team, start with your hiring process You can be the best talents in the world but… Your team will crash if they don’t have the traits needed to do what you expect. - - - 2. Establish the rhythm Make sure your team knows what to do every single day: • Tasks • Deadlines • Expectations Don’t let any confusion hold your team back. - - - 3. Knowing your team’s limits Each team member has their own working limits. Some can manage 4 clients… While some can only manage 2. Know what your team members’ limits are and adjust accordingly. - - - 4. Expectation You'd be surprised how many leaders miss the mark here. Tell your team what you expect about everything… Including the trivial things. That’s how you set the standard. - - - 5. Accountability If your team isn’t performing as you expect them to… They need more accountability. Let people know how they’re doing compared to how they should do. Your team isn’t lazy, they just need to be held accountable. - - - 6. Avoid micromanaging Make your team accountable but let them do their jobs. Keep your suggestions and advice at a high level. The key here is to give them an idea that they are trusted. Empower your team and great work will be done. - - - 7. Communication A pattern I notice in successful businesses: They all have effective communication. But it’s much more complicated than you think. Communication isn’t just talking… It's about engaging, listening, and understanding. Great leaders don't just communicate, they connect. They replace assumptions with curiosity. They foster a culture where feedback isn’t just accepted but expected. - - - 8. Recognition People work harder when they’re recognized for their work. It’s super powerful yet often neglected in most businesses. Don’t let it be in yours. Acknowledge and celebrate the behaviors that align with your goals and values.
