Great post, thanks :)

This is a great interview for people interested in the social media marking space as a business. I started my sma in 2021....by myself lol. A lot of things he said in the video I learned already or know about because I went through it. Baptism by fire! A couple of things I learned personally that he mentioned were you need to find clients or a niche where you both can help each other. Not every business does well with social media because their customers are different, the way that business attracts customers is different, etc. My first client was a local comic book shop who was a family friend kinda. Long story short he wanted more people to walk into his physical store front and buy something and increase his sales in our hometown mall. Social media marketing through Facebook ads was not effective because comic book stuff is very niche retail specific. It needs to be an in demand service/product where you can bring results right away for your client like the guy said. Also, the questioning of a potential client. What do you want out of social media helping your business with your product/service? And walk away if your services can't help that potential client but it's nothing bad. At the same time you don't want to work with someone who you can't bring results because it's going to end badly.

Hmm month to month, it feels like it's hard for the agency to demonstrate their effectiveness, I would say it takes at least 2-3 months before you see results showing from a good social media management. I wonder if a 3-month contract would be better?

I would love to know what he pays his employees Hourly!!

dude is good sale man.he sell water to a fish lol great job folks

Keep going like that man

Month to Month contracts!

mind blowing
phenomenal

Good info!

This video was insane and felt connected, I’m happy that he said all of this because now i feel I’m on the right path

To be honest, month-to-month billing is extremely common for small/mid-size digital marketing agencies.

I run a virtual web dev and digital marketing agency. And the biggest thing I like about it is the freedom to set my own hours and work from anywhere in the world. That same freedom has been extended to all my employees as well, and they love it.

I love the idea of being a virtual agency. Thanks for the video!

Socialist really have some great principles not taking every client and making sure taking on a new client has to be a good fit. This is great for a business owner because this put’s your business in a position to over deliver for your clients. Thank you Upflip for bringing us a great interview from a company in an incredible industry. Social media marketing

That's great!! I'm on my way, and I will get there!!

Jason is great guy and share value infotmation i wish you all the best sir

this was cool

Meanwhile over here with a mktg degree and certs and having a tough time growing my experience with a company or agency

seems like a really humble and intelligent guy, great interview

True! This is precisely the most amazing advice on marketing! that I have tracked down!

I’m starting a company in LA and need a couple other people to become “co-owners” of the business with me. If your a hard working, goal oriented individual, plz reach out!

Glad I took this road some time ago! Having a stable business such as running a SMMA is great.

What are the recommended tools for a newbie to be educated and have confidence to venture into this business? Are there certificates that one should get?

Props to upflip,great questions asked,great answers.Very good content.

Really great interview

Love this video, very informative. Thank you

What are the risks :)

Great video man ❤️ keep it up

This is very inspiring! I'll be sending this to my son, who is very interested in social media marketing.

He seems like an awesome boss! Loved this episode and will be back for the next upload!

Love the way they can work anywhere in the world and from home and provide that to his team. Makes a really attractive place to work for

This is great and inspiring as I'm looking to do something similar. I like the method of disrupting the space and doing things differently. That's the problem with social media, everyone is doing the same thing. You need to stand out by doing things different!

Wow! That's amazing! Loved learning about Jason's journey! Thanks for sharing!

I like the way Jason turns away business that is not the right fit. 😎

Great video! I feel like we're about to get that hockey stick growth over here too. We've been heavily investing in our systems and software. Let's go!

"Its better to say no than get into a relationship that's never going to end well". Some really good insight, thanks for the information.

That's a good weakness to turn into a strength if it benefits the clients and they save. Makes sense. Very informative video.

I am a video marketing and social media strategist. I think this is really helpful to provide information. I love when he said "you get what you pay for." YES!

I love this outlook! Great interview!

Know what you're worth. Great tip Jason. Videos are getting better and better, keep it up!

Thanks for having me. Loved how it turned out!

I love is thinking in regards to scaling properly! I think far too many businesses are so focused on just getting clients and being busy, and they don’t think about the long-term and the HEALTH of the business

Interesting case study. Biggest takeaway is disrupting by using month to month contracts
