Acquisition grows an agency. Operations give you a life.

Most agency founders learn this too late - myself included.

Got our first chargeback from a client that actually owes us for a month of service… Feeling like we hit a milestone

In the game long enough to have exposure to everything in business.

But still yet to see compounding effects of endlessly iterating and improving upon the basics for a long time.

@maxwellcopy Tempting to always compare your own business to others

Then you remember to “mind your own business”

[Don Florentino @iamramoflo]

Some clients you can literally get a 300x ROI and they'll still nitpick over redundant details. Then others will forever breakeven on you (simply due to size of biz) but are amazing to work with.

9-5 lifestyle is peak tbh

Wake up early. Travel to office. Oat flat-white from favourite cafe. 4hrs focused work. Lunch and cig with mates in the city. Spend arvo scheming in front of laptop with cofounder.

Business is a marathon. And I could do this forever.

@AngusCowan_17 All our rich ecom clients made their money outside of ecom 😂

@MaxGrant__ This is beautiful

Fk merch all our new clients getting branded ciggies

Doing free work for a testimonial/experience/logo on your site/etc seems like a good idea until you realise they don't care to use it bc it's free work and you don't really care either bc it's not paid

[Don Florentino @iamramoflo]

Doing our cashflow and it just hit me - people with businesses in other countries simply wouldn’t need to set aside cash to pay tax.

Like there is literally no account that exists where money is stashed to pay tax to the gov lol. What a thought.

[Don Florentino @iamramoflo]

@odinitee Absolutely crazy string of words in a sentence 😂
