Hunter Hammonds - Positioning pt. 2: How to scale to $1M+

Today we're talking with designer and entrepreneur, Hunter Hammonds, who has grown 5 different agencies to millions in revenue in less than a year. So in this episode we walk through the different stages of building an independent design business—starting from positioning yourself as a solopreneur all the way to scaling operations to 7 figures. We get into the weeds about:

- Hunter’s framework for selling yourself on a landing page

- The tactics OffMenu uses to convert more leads to customers

- Why Hunter thinks MRR is a misguided metric

- What operational fat you can trim to increase margins

- How you can improve your sales calls

- + a lot more
