I picked 'marketing agencies' as my niche. Once I specialized in one sector, prices went up 40%, finding clients became easier.

Niche = narrow field, deep expertise. Marketing is easier, prices are higher, clients are happier.

I'd say don't rush. People defend habits, not processes. Resistance comes from there.

Don't hesitate to ask; those who don't ask always pay more. If you have questions, write them; I'll answer as best I can.

i've been dealing with this for a long time. when making decisions write down the worst-case scenario too, not just the best.

The opposite happened to me, that's why I'm writing. When we decide without measuring, we always end up in the same place.

Good luck with that.

Let me speak from the other side; I'm on the supplier side. Any unwritten clause becomes a point of disagreement later, as both sides remember it differently.

Thanks for writing this, that's the right way. If it's your first time, start small; scaling comes later.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

The discussion got scattered, let me summarize. The first thing to break as you grow is communication, not the numbers.

When making decisions, write down the worst-case scenario too, not just the best. This is my opinion, I'm not claiming it's absolute truth.

I'll argue the opposite don't get mad. Solutions that work at a small scale collapse when you grow; I learned this late.

Taking notes for two weeks yields better results than a six-month estimate.

If you don't write this down from the start, it leads to arguments later.

Thanks this was very helpful. The longer you delay cutting the team the more people it affects.

Hope this helps.

You're right. When the closure decision was made is as decisive as the decision itself.

This is my opinion, I'm not claiming it's absolute truth.

I don't think this advice fits everyone. When making a decision first look at what data you have on hand.

This is my opinion, I'm not claiming it's absolute truth.

we need to take it step by step. pausing growth to breathe is also a strategy nobody says that.

when the closure decision was made is as decisive as the decision itself... i mean correct me if I'm wrong.
