Run a thriving agency that grows without you: Insights from the Hands-Off CEO Retreat

Many 7-figure agency CEOs find themselves trapped in the day-to-day grind of their business making it harder to scale it, because they work too much IN the business rather than ON it.

However, you can run a thriving agency that grows without your constant involvement. It’s not just a dream – YES – it’s entirely possible, and we’re here to show you how!

At our upcoming Hands-Off CEO Fall Retreat in St. Augustine, Florida (October 8-10), you’ll join an elite group of agency leaders ready to take their businesses to new heights. Our early bird 50% OFF the regular investment discount ends this Friday.

This elite event offers you:

  • Networking with high-achieving peers
  • Transformative workshops to unlock your full potential
  • Strategies to command up to 10x higher fees
  • Techniques to increase your profits by up to 600% while working less
  • Luxury accommodations with chef-prepared meals and engaging activities – ALL INCLUDED in the price

Past attendees have seen remarkable results and called this experience “life shifting”.

One generated $100k in new profit just 3 months post-retreat, while another achieved 200% top-line growth, adding millions in new sales.

The key to your sustainable scaling isn’t about working harder – it’s about strategically removing yourself as the bottleneck to growth. One powerful way to do this is by focusing on solving million-dollar problems for clients who CAN afford premium solutions.

Let’s dive into this concept from “The Hands-Off CEO” Book:

  • Identify Million-Dollar Problems: Look for issues that significantly impact your client’s bottom line.
  • Target the Right Clients: Seek out businesses with the resources to invest in solving these high-impact problems.
  • Develop Premium Solutions: Create comprehensive, high-value offerings (Irresistible Offers) that address these million-dollar problems.
  • Communicate Value Clearly: FOCUS on the ROI for the client when presenting your solutions.
  • Price Confidently: DON’T be afraid to significantly increase your fees for high-value solutions.

By shifting your focus to these high-value problems and clients, you can dramatically increase your agency’s fees and profitability. This approach also naturally leads to more strategic work, allowing you to step back from day-to-day operations.

“The Hands-Off CEO” Book also emphasizes building a fast-learning team, developing great leaders and the power of positioning.

At our retreat, you’ll learn strategies to:

  • Create clear systems and processes for consistent quality
  • Develop a strong company culture aligned with your vision
  • Implement effective training programs to replicate your expertise
  • Differentiate your agency through niche focus and unique methodologies
