In this episode, Kris reveals what she’s been up to in these last couple of months. She talks about her goals, ambitions, and plans for Sugatan agency in 2020, including expanding from 30 to 75 people working full time, and, as always, she dives deep into the struggles that come with it.
For an agency or any business that is growing at this speed, it is extremely important to maintain a healthy functioning ecosystem and to make sure that new and old team members alike know exactly what they are supposed to be doing at all times.
At this point, even if the core team members are well adjusted to the processes and systems, they will also be facing a major challenge: as the team grows,8 so do their responsibilities.
Sugatan’s operation team is working harder than ever trying to identify new talent that will hopefully help take the agency to another level in this upcoming year. Thankfully the majority of the hard work the team has been putting in this last year, trying to optimize the hiring process, is paying off meaning that most of the tasks related to hiring and on boarding are now being flawlessly executed, allowing Kris to focus only on finding those A-players.
Another big part of the excitement shared in episode #19 is Deividas’ 50-page long article, lovingly called “Knowledge Bomb” by other team members. What’s a “Knowledge Bomb” or “Value Bomb” and why has this project earned this particular name? The answer is simple: because of the variety of the extremely detailed content you will be able to find once it has been published.
Deividas has put all the fundamental steps and strategies he’s used himself, while working with the agency’s clients and it can help you scale your eCommerce business if given the time and effort to actually execute these steps and strategies.
The article is going live on January 15th, 2020 and it will be available on the website, on our private Facebook group as well as on all of our social media channels.
Deividas has also discovered a way to add Pinterest ads and he shares his experience with testing and implementing them for his current clients. So far the results have been beyond satisfying and he talks about how he’s managed to achieve great results without actually doing anything.
Tune in to this episode if you’re interested in business growth, hiring and identifying new talent, managing the remote team as well as creating a thriving ecosystem and the magic behind Pinterest ads.
