What it looks like to start an agency with and without money and the resources I’ve done it in both ways here's the main difference between them when you have money you can quickly hire people who are going to build business for you and focus on whatever is their strength, and you can focus on your strength I’m good with content marketing.
I’m good with SEO, so I focus my efforts on driving traffic to my business whether it's creating videos like this or writing blog post content or speaking at events the rest of my team focus on other areas that I know that they're great at such as management client services strategy I also help with some strategy but more, so I do that because I love it I’m a marketer now, when you don't have money you'll need to wear a few different hats to run the business and deliver the results to your clients especially if you want them to be satisfied.
