Stop Chasing the Lamborghini: Why Young Agencies Burn Out Chasing Cash Instead of Results
“Only made $20K last month,” the young agency owner laments, scrolling past some guy on Instagram bragging about his $300K month, flashing a Lamborghini Urus and a diamond-encrusted Rolex.
This right here is why so many young folks crash and burn in digital marketing.
When you’re obsessed with cash collected, you prioritize selling over actually delivering results.
You turn into THAT guy—flexing, over-promising, blasting out cold DMs just to book more sales calls.
Think doubling your income from $20K to $40K means you need twice as many sales calls?
What if you just kept your clients for 4 months instead of 2?
Hold onto them for a year, and you’re looking at a 600% revenue boost without chasing a single new lead.
When I suggest focusing on taking exceptional care of existing clients instead of spamming LinkedIn and Instagram, they say…
“But I need to generate sales right now.”
Here’s the thing—if you’re doing such an outstanding job that your clients can’t stop talking about you, the sales will come.
Every dollar I’ve earned—which adds up to millions—came from referrals and reputation.
Zero cold outreach. Zero spamming inboxes.
Stop chasing the quick cash and start building something that lasts.
