  • How The Blueprint Training came to be, and what kinds of SEO training services and resources they offer clients
  • Why the key financial mistake Ryan sees agencies making is classifying everything as expenses rather than separating out labor costs
  • Why it is crucial to know your business numbers like profit margins, expenses, labor costs, and other key metrics
  • Why Ryan and his team fire clients if they aren’t reaching an 80% gross margin from the client, even if it is no fault of the client’s
  • Why you need to reach a point where you aren’t the only one doing everything in your business, and why hiring others is a smart business investment
  • Why investing in coaches and training is another smart business investment, and why all your free time should be devoted to marketing your business
  • Why “doing more” for your clients isn’t the right way to add value, and why having one amazing offer is better than having lots of generic products or services
