As agency owners, we're always looking for ways to improve our business development strategies and stand out in a crowded marketplace. This week, I’m flipping the script and sharing an episode where I was a guest on Susan Quinn’s podcast, “Insights.”  Susan asks some great questions to help get to the bottom of the two main biz dev strategies modern agencies can count on today — niching and thought leadership. Doing these two things can transform your agency's growth trajectory. We cover several key components of this, including how to leverage thought leadership effectively, why niching down is crucial for agency success and how to overcome the fear of narrowing your focus.  We also explore common mistakes C-Suite executives make in marketing their own firms, the importance of consistency in business development efforts, and how to identify and attract "right fit" clients for your agency.  Success in agency biz dev today is about being consistently interesting and relevant to your ideal clients over time. By focusing your expertise, generously sharing your knowledge, and staying top-of-mind, you'll be the natural choice when prospects are ready to buy. https://bit.ly/4dhI2lT [Sponsored by White Label IQ: https://bit.ly/3abMMrU]

NO NEW FRIENDS. I mean, I’m obviously joking. But it’s something that has bubbled up for me when thinking about how we advise our clients. Too quickly people jump to growth mode. “We need to grow our audience!” But my first question is always: “How have you taken care of your existing one?” 📣Keeping your existing audience engaged is the key to growth. And if you want an example of a brand doing this well consistently, check out Integrity Solutions, shepherded by Will Milano. They just got back from winning the 2024 Stevie Awards in multiple categories. Because they have consistently focused on what their followers love and continue to create for them—from podcasts to books to the overarching content marketing strategy. It's never just a podcast.   It’s about about finding new fans and keeping the old ones happy. #Engagement #Growth #ContentTips

We’re planning to drop an episode every Thursday. Our first episode features our very first client, Wylie Kain, VP and Head of Brand at American Century Investments.

Wylie answers these 3 TiNY Questions: ❓ What is a ‘creative marketer’? ❓ What do agencies get wrong? ❓ What's your favorite campaign that you've been part of? Thanks for being our first guest, Wylie!
