Basic Rules of Running Agency business

πŸ’Ό 1. Define Your Core Services

Don’t try to do everything for everyone.
βœ… Pick your top 2–3 core offerings (e.g., web design, SEO, video marketing).
βœ… Be known for excellence in those areas.
βœ… Build processes around them so your team can deliver consistently.


🎯 2. Choose the Right Clients

Every client isn’t a good fit.
βœ… Qualify leads β€” ask about their budget, timeline, and goals before accepting projects.
βœ… Say no to red flags (poor communication, unrealistic expectations, unclear goals).
βœ… The right clients will respect your expertise and pay on time.


πŸ’° 3. Always Get Paid β€” and Get It in Writing

βœ… Use contracts or proposals that spell out scope, payment terms, and deadlines.
βœ… Collect deposits upfront (usually 50%).
βœ… Don’t start until the deposit clears.
βœ… Use online invoicing (Stripe, PayPal, QuickBooks, etc.) for tracking.


🧠 4. Build Systems, Not Chaos

βœ… Standardize your workflow: proposal β†’ deposit β†’ design β†’ revisions β†’ delivery β†’ marketing.
βœ… Use project management tools (Trello, ClickUp, Notion, etc.).
βœ… Create templates for proposals, emails, and onboarding.


🀝 5. Communicate Clearly & Often

βœ… Set client expectations early β€” what’s included, what’s not, and when updates happen.
βœ… Use weekly or milestone updates.
βœ… Avoid surprises β€” keep them informed of delays or changes immediately.


πŸ“ˆ 6. Track Your Results

βœ… Measure everything: traffic, conversions, ad spend, engagement, etc.
βœ… Use data to prove ROI to clients.
βœ… Clients renew and refer when they see results.


πŸ’‘ 7. Brand Yourself Like a Client

βœ… Build your agency’s online presence β€” website, social media, Google profile.
βœ… Showcase your own work and results (your brand is your best marketing).
βœ… Maintain professional visuals and consistent branding.


πŸ‘₯ 8. Hire Smart, Not Fast

βœ… Start with freelancers or contractors.
βœ… Bring on full-time staff only when you have steady recurring revenue.
βœ… Train your team to match your standards β€” consistency is key.


πŸ” 9. Focus on Retainers & Recurring Income

βœ… Offer monthly packages for marketing, SEO, maintenance, or content.
βœ… Retainers stabilize your income between big projects.
βœ… The goal: predictable monthly cash flow.


πŸš€ 10. Keep Learning and Evolving

βœ… The industry changes fast β€” stay ahead on tools, trends, and design.
βœ… Learn business skills too β€” pricing, sales, leadership, and automation.
βœ… Network with other agency owners and share insights.


βš–οΈ 11. Protect Your Time and Energy

βœ… Avoid scope creep β€” charge for extra work.
βœ… Set office hours and communication boundaries.
βœ… Don’t let one client dominate your time or stress levels.


πŸ† 12. Build Relationships, Not Just Projects

βœ… Keep in touch with past clients β€” they become your best promoters.
βœ… Offer continued value (newsletters, check-ins, small updates).
βœ… Build a referral pipeline.
