Is it really possible to create an agency that can run without you?
My agency already has 20 clients after launching just 3 months ago, but I’m still the Strategist and still handling almost everything myself.
I’m honestly having a hard time letting go because what if the person who replaces me won’t be as good as I am? What if we lose clients because of that?
I really want to scale this agency to 100 to 200+ clients, but I feel like I’m also the one slowing down the growth.
For context, I already created a 100+ page SOP document covering how I approach everything. I’m just not sure if it’ll actually work once my first key hire tries to replicate my strategic thinking and workflow.
Would love to hear your thoughts, especially from agency owners who’ve gone through this stage.
