Agencies looking to grow have traditionally relied on fostering strategic relationships to land deals and increase sales. Cold email and referrals have often been quite effective. But through my work with dozens of agencies, it’s clear outbound alone is no longer enough.

When the pandemic hit, we were all left with a bitter taste in our mouths — especially as business owners. Uncertainty was a constant, sales and customer interest were wildly volatile and for many businesses, it became less about planning for the rest of the year and more about surviving the next few months. . My company, Circle 5 Books , which focuses on web and marketing copy, did not take much of an active stance on the pandemic.

That means you are the only one who knows how the business works, you make all decisions, and progress grinds to a halt when you are away. That may make sense on day one , but it will kill you and the business over time.

The study of a website’s success became even more detailed as digital marketers became more sophisticated in evaluating website activity. Servers keep track of website activity and log every time a page receives a visitor (known as a ‘hit’).
