As the Founder of Nick the Marketer and Urgent Care Marketing Pros, Nick is the chief visionary of Brands. He spends his time creating opportunities, identifying strategic business relationships, and developing leaders. Nick joins me to discuss how he pivoted during the pandemic, and shares advice for new agency owners.  Avoiding Financial Mistakes The biggest mistake that new agencies make is filtering 100% of everything through their company on the client’s behalf. This is a huge financial mistake. During our conversation, Nick shares how many agencies make the mistake of not disclosing how they disperse their services. Nick describes how early on in his business, he took on the risk with a couple of accounts where he was left with their Google Ads bill because they decided not to pay the agency. Nick stresses that although you may be new in business, and really need a client, you must take the time to have proper documents and agreements signed to avoid paying the “stupid tax.” Finding Qualified Leads Nick believes that running ads can be a huge driver for business. However, you need to have the systems and teammates in place to be able to handle the results of the ads. You have to capture those leads, and you must take the time to set up processes and people to effectively capture your leads. Don’t forget that you’re paying for it! You should also put a filtering process in place for your leads. Nick explains how his agency filters through a survey. He describes some of the important questions he asks to qualify leads. Additionally, Nick shares the thank you message that unqualified leads receive after completing the survey. This process saves time and money that could have been wasted on unnecessary phone calls.
