Foundations of Agency Success: Simplifying Operations for Growth

Why do we read books like Traction, Scaling Up, and the E-Myth and still struggle with implementing systems, defining processes, and training people in our agency? Those are incredibly comprehensive methodologies. And yet digital agencies still suffer from feast or famine months, inconsistent results and timelines on projects, quality control, revisions, and much more. It’s not because they aren’t excellent at what they do. I t’s not because there isn’t value in their service. It’s often because they haven’t defined the three most important elements of delivery: the how, the when, and the why. Complicating our operations early on can lead to a ton of failure in implementing them. Business owners overcomplicate their own processes, hesitate to write things down, and then there’s a...

Striking the Right Balance Between Business Branding vs. Personal Branding

Businesses come and go. But your personal name, that’s another matter altogether. In the social business world, your name can be leveraged as your personal identifier across myriad social media sites as well as your monetized business brand. In creating a new business or online presence, one of the toughest decisions you may make is whether to establish your social business brand by your personal name or a fictitious “DBA” identity, such as a catchy word, phrase, or slogan. It’s hardly a trivial decision, especially considering your online identity eventually will sprout hundreds if not thousands of backlinks which will need to be well-tended if you decide to do a digital makeover at a later date. Confused on what to do? Join the club. Do you drop whatever you are doing right now...

0.146 Seconds: The Power of First Impressions on Your Brand

It takes only 0.146 seconds to love your brand, or at least it should. That’s how long it takes for someone to form a first impression of your brand. And if you’re not making an emotional connection with your audience in that fraction of a second, you’re missing out on a huge opportunity to win their hearts and minds. But here’s the thing: visuals aren’t always the best way to make that emotional connection. In fact, when it comes to hitting emotions quickly, audio can often be more effective than visuals. That’s because sound has a direct line to our emotions, bypassing our logical brains and going straight to our hearts. Music to Inspire Music is a powerful tool for inspiring emotions. It has the ability to transport us to different places, evoke feelings of nostalgia, and ignit...

How to Get Noticed Online: 5 Steps to Brand your Landing Page

By Kristin MacLaughlin November 18, 2020 Learn 5 easy steps you can take today to start building your brand identity in your emails, on your landing page, and beyond with AWeber. What does having a “strong brand” mean to you? For some, images of mega corporations like Apple or Starbucks come to mind.

Regardless, I’m willing to bet you thought about a large, recognizable brand — which is why small businesses can have a hard time creating a strong brand identity.
