[Podcast] The Roofing Niche That Built a Marketing Empire
Want to know the difference between agencies that scale and those that stay stuck?
It's not talent. It's not luck. It's not even hard work.
It's systems.
Arielle Cohen, Co-Founder & CMO of Marketing 411 & Business 411, just walked me through her exact playbook for building a multi-7-figure agency, and I'm sharing the tactical breakdown with you.
THE SCALING FRAMEWORK:
Phase 1: Foundation (Months 1-6)
- Deep market research in your chosen vertical
- Create core offering specific to industry needs
- Get paying clients FAST (revenue fuels everything)
- Document your initial processes
Phase 2: Team Building (Months 6-18)
- Hire for roles you HATE first (not admin tasks)
- Build overseas team for cost efficiency
- Create 30-day onboarding roadmaps
- Implement weekly "stoplight" KPI reports
Phase 3: Systematization (Year 2+)
- Build comprehensive SOP library
- Create "Top 10 Essentials" per department
- Empower team to solve problems independently
- Focus on growth instead of operations
HER 3-PART SOP SYSTEM:
- Written step-by-step process
- Screenshot walkthrough
- Video training demonstration
"If you're not doing 80% of what you love daily, your formula is off."
The result? An agency that serves thousands of contractors while giving the founder freedom to work ON the business, not IN it.
This episode is packed with tactical gold. No fluff, just the exact steps she took to build a 7-figure agency.
