There are a lot of factors to keep in mind when scaling your agency including knowing your core audience, knowing the strengths and weaknesses of your current team, and knowing your own limits.

Groen joined TMR for MasterAdvisor 49 to talk about her analytical and detail-driven approach that has helped her agency grow 100% year-over-year more than once.
