Feast or famine for WordPress Agencies?

Épisode 1

jeudi 9 octobre 2025 • Durée 48:22

Kurt von Ahnen and Toby Cryns kick off Season 1 by answering the questions every new agency owner asks: how to split time between learning, delivery, marketing, and actually running the business; how to find (and talk to) buyers; and how to price when you’re still building your portfolio. They unpack the difference between marketing and sales, why grassroots outreach beats tiny ad budgets, and how recurring revenue (hosting + maintenance) keeps you top-of-mind and solvent.

You’ll hear practical scripts for handling pushback, ways to build trust without a giant portfolio, and two contrasting—but equally successful—approaches to pricing: Toby’s “what does this look like—$18k?” instinct vs. Kurt’s hour-based estimates with a 30% buffer and a firm agency rate. They also cover scope control, when to say “yes” to harmless client preferences, and why generosity and community involvement pay surprising dividends over time.

Key takeaways

Time blocking wins: protect daily blocks for sales/marketing (90–120 min/day), learning, and delivery.
Marketing ≠ sales: if you must pick, sell—book coffees, ask for intros, join real-world meetups.
Grassroots > tiny ad spends: a $500 ads budget won’t replace consistent outbound and community activity.
Build trust without a big portfolio: create sample sites on your server and lead with outcomes, not tech.
Don’t talk stacks in sales calls: promise outcomes, timelines, and service—save tech for discovery/paid work.
Price for the team you’ll need: even solo, quote as if you’re paying implementers and managing the project.
Try “looks like” pricing: anchor high, then listen; you can adjust scope before you adjust price.
Recurring revenue is marketing: hosting/maintenance keeps you top-of-mind and smooths cash flow.
Scope & sanity: if budget is the issue, remove features—don’t race to the bottom.
Say “yes” (when harmless): accommodate style tweaks that won’t break objectives; save your “no” for what matters.
Generosity compounds: responsive service, community leadership, and “pay it forward” behavior attract referrals.
Choose depth and width: anchor with a few high-margin projects; fill the gaps with simpler builds.
