I was asked recently by community member Alex Nech why I chose to run an advisory business instead going the agency route.
In this episode, I break down most of the reasons I chose to go this route instead of growing my agency.
The main reasons include:
- Higher take-home profit at the end of the year (at my size)
- Less day-to-day stress
- Less business overhead and complexity
- A better overall experience working with clients
- More free time in my day
- And generally a better fit with my skills/personality
There are more reasons, and I break it all down in this episode including how I transitioned from running an agency to advisory work.
If you're not sure what route to go, give this a listen and see if any parts of it resonate with your situation.
