Position Phase
Pick a niche where you have deep familiarity. Narrow the offer to one deliverable type. Generic agencies compete on price; specialists compete on expertise.
Acquire Phase
Content marketing, referrals, and direct outreach are the three channels that work for solo agencies. Pick one and go deep for 90 days.
Deliver Phase
Build repeatable delivery systems: proposal templates, onboarding checklists, weekly update formats, and retrospective frameworks. Reuse everything.
