Questions

Currently running a Content Creation Business: www.growthwizards.co, working with a network of talented freelancers and a handful of clients. I'm seeking advice on growing & scaling my service business. Any insights?

I've worked with a number of clients to help them grow and scale their businesses, and there are lots of options open to you. The trick is going to be knowing where to focus your energy.

In terms of growth, you can look to build your authority and your list by guest posting on authority sites such as Entrepreneur, Forbes, Inc, FastCompany, SumoMe and similar sites. This is where a number of business owners hang out, so if you create useful, powerful content then you're likely to see growth.

You can also use your social media sites. Given you're in the B2B space, LinkedIn is a huge opportunity. Again, this is a huge topic alone (people have written whole courses on increasing growth using LinkedIn). But the brief answer is to network, join relevant LinkedIn groups, boost your profile by posting regularly and view the profiles of a couple of dozen 'ideal clients' each day.

If you want to help boost your Twitter profile and followers you could look at a tool like CrowdFire to help you grow followers fast.

Depending on your resources you could also leverage Facebook by using Facebook ads. If you have the budget you might engage an expert in this field.

In terms of scaling fast and effectively, it would probably pay to join a program like James Schramko's SilverCircle. He supports business owners to grow and scale, he's experienced and he knows what he's talking about. Of course, there are a number of people in this space so it's a matter of choosing someone who resonates with you.

This question is really so big and broad it's quite difficult to give you an answer that's going to work for you. If you want to jump on a call with me I can discuss your specific situation and needs, which will serve you better.

I hope that's been helpful. :-)
