The work-life line I won't cross as a parent: I don't want my kids to grow up NOT wanting to be entrepreneurs because they saw me miserable doing it. I want them to see the work bring me alive. What's the boundary you never break? Full episode with @dohertyjf

I just had a client create their own profile on AUGUST, my proprietary Agency Operating System. A big step towards empowering agency owners to make data and insight driven decisions about their agency. AI features coming soon!

Your agency isn't getting the leads it needs because you're not doing the actions required to get the leads you need.

Want to grow your agency? Check this out - johnfdoherty.com/coaching/ If you wanna close โ€Šhigh ticket clients at premium rates, โ€Šthen you need โ€Šthe high ticket sales process that I've used to close over $5 million in high ticket sales. I call it the DSSC sales process.

Daily business wisdom as I put on my shoes. Todayโ€™s topic: profit. Profit isnโ€™t natural. Low profit = canโ€™t pay yourself, canโ€™t hire well, canโ€™t grow. There are the 5 moves I use with agency owners. I turned this into a simple checklist. ๐Ÿ‘‰ Reply โ€œPROFITโ€ and Iโ€™ll send it.

If you're an expert and you like doing the work, don't productize your service. Build packages that are easy to sell, easy to deliver, and give you lots of profit and freedom. (Give me a follow for more content like this)

When outreach goes awry. (Took me a bit to get what he was trying to say.)

Professional basketball players don't wait to hire a coach until they're at the top of their game. They hire a coach to GET THEM to the top of their game. And once they're there, they have multiple.

The right opportunity vehicle will take you a lot further in a shorter period of time. Selling to better clients. Charging more to get better results. Higher value services. If you're working super hard and not getting very far, you might need a different vehicle.

This is the foundation of a digital service business. One high value skill One ideal client One acquisition channel (that you create, not find) Loads of proof Then it just becomes about more volume, more experience, and raising your rates as you bring more value.

Are you struggling to sell 12-month retainers in 2026? It's harder than I've ever seen in my 15 years of consulting. So stop selling them. Instead, sell a paid analysis. Then sell a 3-month retainer/project. And THEN, and only then, sell a 12-month retainer.

You don't wait to go to a doctor until you're healthy. So why would you wait to hire a coach until you have everything figured out? The whole purpose of a coach is to get to where you want to go faster. Don't wait.
