Building a strong client base is a significant goal for any agency to continue to scale. However, acquiring new business is not a one-size-fits-all situation in the agency space. Business development comes in many shapes and sizes, and what works for a ten-person team likely won’t be as effective for a 100-person company.

A friend of the show, Jody Sutter, is here this week to talk about her experiences in business development, the four business personalities, overcoming the fear of sales, and more! This week, episode 233 of The Digital Agency Growth Podcast is about unlocking the secrets to building a thriving new business culture for your agency.
