Intégrer une marge dans ses tarifs ? Pas évident, surtout au début, quand on a peur d'être “trop cher”. Dans cette MM, je reviens sur un échange avec Morgan, un entrepreneur indépendant que j'ai accompagné. Il m'a expliqué qu'au départ, il fixait ses prix uniquement à partir de son TJM et du temps estimé pour chaque mission. Mais il s'est vite rendu compte qu'il lui manquait un truc essentiel : la marge. Parce que facturer juste pour se rémunérer, c'est pas suffisant quand on veut développer une activité pérenne. Et toi, tu inclus une marge quand tu définis tes tarifs? (pour me répondre, envoie-moi un mp sur Linkedin

Smart Agency Masterclass with Jason Swenk: Podcast for Digital Marketing Agencies
Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Do you invest in training high-potential employees to grow into leadership roles—or do you prefer to hire seasoned pros from the start? There's no one-size-fits-all approach to building a great team, but today's featured guest has a clear philosophy: when it comes to agency growth, he prefers to develop A-players from within. For him, building the bench is just as important as building the business. Hamlet Azarian is the founder and CEO of Azarian Growth Agency, an agency that works with mid-market venture-backed startups helping them build their go-to-market strategies. He discusses his agency's "build them up" strategy, focusing on continual learning and curiosity through an academy, webinars, and internships, rather than solely hiring seasoned professionals. He'll address the common agency challenge of talent retention, noting that positive experiences can still lead to future referrals and positive word-of-mouth, even if employees eventually move on. It's an interesting episode where we dive into the importance of human capital and fostering a supportive, value-driven environment for agency success. In this episode, we'll discuss: Growing talent from scratch. Promote those who are ready to shine. The secret to employee retention.

From Go-to Fixer to Full Agency Before he was running his own growth agency, Hamlet was the go-to fixer for venture-backed startups in the trenches of pre-product chaos. VCs brought him in as a high-paid consultant to help fragile startups figure out product validation and go-to-market traction — a risky sandbox where there's barely a product and hardly any money. As the companies he touched turned into multi-million-dollar powerhouses, word got around, more VCs lined up, and the Azarian Growth Agency was born. So as he recalls, it wasn't exactly an accidental start, but considering he was helping startups that could barely write a check, he could not see it turning into a full agency in the beginning. A Culture of Relentless Learning One thing Hamlet doesn't compromise on is curiosity. If you run an agency, you know yesterday's marketing tactic is today's LinkedIn meme. So instead of hiring only ‘seasoned experts,' He invests in creating lifelong learners. How? He built Azarian Growth Academy, which trains up-and-coming marketers on the exact growth strategies his agency deploys for high-stakes startups. Add to that a monthly Growth Lab webinar, Udemy courses (4,000+ students and counting), and a robust internship pipeline — and you get a team that knows not just what to do, but why it works. Education is really central for Hamlet so his people don't just follow checklists — they evolve with the market because they understand the principles behind the tactics. Growing Talent from Scratch (and Letting Them Fly) Does it work? Hamlet shares a story that answers that better than any hiring manifesto. One intern joined as a college senior, left, and rejoined when Hamlet officially hung out his agency shingle. When he saw her application, Hamlet immediately hired her, as she knew her aptitude, passion, and even her weaknesses. Within 6 months, she was running paid ads. By year one, she was pitching clients solo. By year two, she was leading teams and today she's a senior department head. The lesson here is drive and curiosity should be backed with training, opportunity, and real trust. The payoff is massive loyalty and in-house expertise that's molded to your agency's playbook — not someone else's. Promotion by Performance, Not the Calendar Forget annual reviews and rigid promotion ladders. Hamlet's approach is simple: Learn fast, deliver results, get rewarded. To him, some people shine faster than others and, as the agency owners, you don't to limit that potential. Of course, you want to prepare them for the new role, so he tests emerging talent on internal agency projects before putting them on client accounts. If they mess up, the agency learns — not the client's bank account. It's a safe sandbox for risk-taking and skill-building, with performance as the only true gatekeeper to moving up. Flexibility: The Secret Sauce to Keeping Good People How can you keep that talent from jumping ship the second they hit senior level? You don't always. And Hamlet says that's perfectly fine. Even with AI evolving daily, Hamlet's clear that an agency's real moat is people — smart, motivated, curious people who feel trusted and supported to do their best work. Tools change. Channels come and go. But the humans who run them? That's your agency's real asset. In his view, the agency's success is predicated on the owner's ability to bring in talented people on to the team and provide a great environment that encourages them to stay. And the definition of “great” in this case may vary from individual to individual, but Hamlet finds that more than perks or a foosball table or free LaCroix, it's about freedom. People need room to live their lives — whether that's hopping on a plane to Italy with the kids, or working flexible hours so family time doesn't clash with client deadlines. When people feel understood and trusted, they stay longer. And if they do leave? They become allies, not competitors. Many send referrals back. Some boomerang and return. And nearly all say, “That's where I learned how to do great work.” That reputation becomes your best recruiting tool — a self-feeding loop of great people wanting in. Experience vs. Fresh Eyes: A Never-Ending Balancing Act There's a million ways to grow an agency and there are no easy answers when it comes to hiring. Even if you hire the “experienced pro,” they can become rigid and slow to adapt — a death knell for early-stage growth marketing where experimentation rules. Hamlet's advice is don't bet the farm on resumes alone. Bet on mindset. Surround yourself with good people who share the same values. Look for curiosity, a love of learning, and the ability to fail, recover, and share lessons. Skills can be taught. Hunger can't. Define what you believe. Hire for it relentlessly. Train for skill, reward growth, and build an environment people don't want to leave — and if they do, they still sing your praises. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset?

Farmers are sharing their voice on state policy and the lack of a national farm bill. Jill Welke visits with Brad Olson, president of the WI Farm Bureau Federation, about a group of young farmers that went to Washington, D.C. to make their points on policy. Another hot, sticky day on the way for Wisconsin. Pam Jahnke gives a rundown on the forecast and also shares crop tips from Anastasia Kurth, UW-Extension Regional Crops and Soils Educator. She says the heat and humidity tax the energy of a plant, at the same time that insect populations are burgeoning. What if dairy could help you keep a slim waistline? Karen Antunes is a PhD candidate in the nutritional science department at UW-Madison. She’s working with the UW Dairy Innovation Hub to figure out if colostrum (the first form of milk produced by cows after calving) can restore gut health after taking antibiotics to reduce obesity later in life. She explains that antibiotics kill bad bacteria -- that's why humans take it when they're sick. But antibiotics also kill good bacteria -- microbes that can be tougher for children and young people to gain back leading to an increased risk for obesity. In mice, colostrum successfully brought back good bacteria, and those mice gained less fat when eating a "Western diet." It's just the beginning, as she explains to Stephanie Hoff. Wisconsin crops aren't improving just because of the heat and rain. Pam Jahnke highlights some of the weekly notes from the state crop progress report. She also notes displeasure from the WI Farmers Union in the lack of funding support for the WI Local Food Purchase Assistance Program. Federal funding for that program will be exhausted by August, and the Joint Finance Committee has opted not to include it in their current state budget. Monday's USDA acreage report showed farmers planting less soybeans and more corn this year. Numbers didn't really surprise the marketplace according to John Heinberg, market advisor with Total Farm Marketing in West Bend. He joins Pam Jahnke to break it down. Also developing, USDA allowing live cattle and other livestock back into the U.S. The border restrictions were connected with stopping movement of the New World Screwworm. Heinberg says it's going to be closely monitored, but it will be opened.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

En #HoyEsRisco del jueves 26 de junio, el periodista José Yuste explicó por qué la Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores intervino, de manera temporal, a las entidades financieras intercam y Ci Banco. Es una medida preventiva la que están tomando, precisó. Sobre el tema en su sección Fixer ¿, Kenneth Smith, señaló que vale la pena cuestionar si esta decisión del Departamento del Tesoro forma parte de la negociación de los aranceles al acero y al aluminio. Y también, cuestiona si es que está funcionando la estrategia del gobierno de México en la relación bilateral con Estados Unidos.. Sobre la dictaminación y eventual aprobación en el Senado de la Ley de General en Materia de Desaparición Forzada de Personas, Jorge Verástegui González, defensor de derechos humanos, señaló que no es una ley que se centre en la búsqueda de personas, sino se establecerá un sistema de vigilancia, con herramientas como la CURP biométrica. Además, cuestionó que la Secretaría de Gobernación solo hizo un ejercicio de simulación con los colectivos de buscadores. En los deportes, Marion Reimers, comentó sobre la decisión del Comité Olímpico Internacional del cambio rotundo en cuanto al marco legal para los atletas transgéneros, aunque la decisión final será de cada federación.Finalmente, en el Club de Lectura Leré, leeré, con Pedro Ángel Palou, se analizó el nuevo libro de Guillermo Arriaga llamado El Hombre, una novela polifónica cuenta la historia de Henry Lloyd, un misterioso personaje que poco a poco va construyendo un imperio a mediados del siglo XIX.
The Rush for Early CertificationIn Episode 79 of the Insurance Business Babes podcast, hosts Joanna Wyckoff and Kathe Kline emphasize a time-sensitive issue for agents: annual certification season is here, and this year, it's more important than ever to get it done early. With sweeping industry changes, particularly around MAPDs, and PDPs, waiting until the last minute could seriously jeopardize your business. Delays in certification reporting can easily make agents “not ready to sell” when the season kicks off, resulting in missed opportunities and unhappy clients. As Kathe puts it: “You cannot wait this year, folks. There are so many changes.”Smart Strategies for Getting It DoneProcrastination is the enemy. Joanna recommends blocking certification time into your calendar now—before life inevitably intervenes. Whether it's illness, a family emergency, or a tech blackout, leaving certifications to the last minute is risky. Schedule recurring blocks, tackle certifications carrier by carrier, and consider a Google Sheet to keep track of your progress. For those juggling multistate contracts, breaking it into manageable pieces is a lifesaver. And don't forget to use this opportunity to update all your carrier contact information.Organizing for Sanity: Tech & Email HacksOverwhelmed by the flood of carrier emails and events? Joanna suggests setting up a dedicated carrier-only email account to keep critical messages visible while filtering out the noise. The duo also discuss leveraging AI and tools like Fixer.AI to sort, filter, and even auto-respond to routine communications—though no tool is perfect, and human oversight remains essential.Weatherproof Your BusinessLife happens: tornadoes, internet outages, demanding clients, or simple burnout. Both hosts remind agents to plan for the unexpected, leaving margin in your schedule so last-minute problems don't snowball into missed deadlines. Embrace automation, use online booking links for client appointments, and practice with new technology before AEP so you aren't scrambling during the busiest time of the year.Final Thoughts: Adapt and ThriveThe insurance landscape is shifting dramatically, with premium increases and commission changes on the horizon. Now is the time to diversify product offerings, sharpen your workflow, and cement your status as a trusted advisor. As Joanna says: “Work smarter, not harder.” Get those certifications done early, stay organized, and set your business up for success in this challenging new environment.This episode is sponsored by CertifiedMedicareAgents.com.

They explore the deep psychology behind why agents move (and why many don't), the emotional weight of community and leadership, and the critical role AI is already playing in the evolution of agent growth, operational leadership, and personal productivity. If you've ever wrestled with why people stay in toxic environments, what drives true retention, or how to use AI as your thought partner, this is the conversation you've been waiting for.

In this special archival episode, I speak with actor and musician Anthony Forrest, best known to Star Wars fans for playing the sandtrooper who famously waved Obi-Wan and Luke past an Imperial checkpoint with the words: “These aren't the droids we're looking for.” Originally recorded over a decade ago, this conversation explores Forrest's original casting as “Fixer” in the cut Tosche Station scenes, his time filming in Tunisia, and how George Lucas unexpectedly tapped him to suit up as a trooper. Anthony also reflects on working alongside Alec Guinness, the skepticism among the British crew, and the surreal experience of flying home with champagne and Star Wars stickers courtesy of Sir Alec himself. Beyond Star Wars, we also discuss Anthony's career in music, his time busking in the London Underground, and his low-budget feature The Ballad of Bob's Garage.

Tools are for humans (and super-smart animals, apparently), garages are for cars, countertops are for food, and rollaways are for organizing! This esoteric episode is all (mostly) about embracing the perfectionist - just a little - and making your tools and shop space match your intellect and style. Because so many good projects and necessary repairs get hog-tied by bad organization, and a lack of operable tool enhancement can be submarined by a lack of organization, we want you to scratch that itch and embrace the OCD (if just long enough to put the nut drivers in the correct drawer). While we're at it, there's Jerry Reed and "Amos Moses", Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass, Ninja Tune and Funkungfusion, Electronic Excursions in Hi-Fi and Meat Beat Manifesto, and more "Kashmir' covers than you can shake a two-headed guitar at.

Dans cette Minute Marine, je réagis à un post très juste d'Estelle qui dit : “Moins d'heures facturables = prix unitaire plus élevé.” Je suis totalement d'accord… et je complète. Oui, quand on a moins de temps, il faut facturer plus. Mais ce n'est pas nos contraintes perso qui vont convaincre nos prospects de signer un devis deux fois plus élevé. Ce qui les convainc, c'est notre valeur (autrement dit, notre capacité à résoudre des problèmes qui les saoulent vraiment). Et pour pouvoir facturer plus, je crois qu'il faut aller chercher de la clarté stratégique : – identifier une cible avec des budgets, – comprendre les problèmes urgents qu'on peut résoudre, – construire une offre bien positionnée. Je raconte aussi pourquoi, dans certains cas, il peut être plus judicieux de revenir temporairement vers le salariat. Pas pour renoncer à l'indépendance. Mais pour retrouver un peu d'air… et remettre de la créativité dans son business. Et toi, est-ce que tu tiens compte du temps que tu as (ou plutôt du temps que tu n'as pas) pour définir tes tarifs?

They thought their bargain sea-view flat in Mumbai was a dream—until Rochelle began wandering the terrace at 1 a.m. with a frozen grin, growling in Urdu, and stalking their four-year-old. When she tried to hang herself with a bedsheet, he desperately called paranormal fixer Manish. Manish learns the previous tenant died the same way, and the vengeful spirit now rides Rochelle, strongest at the witching hour. A fierce midnight duel of mantra versus demon frees her—but the flat still sits empty, its lights dark, waiting for the next family to cross the threshold.

Spider-Man Team-Up #7 (1997)Look, I know it's supposed to be more Thunderbolts but the “Justice Like Lightning” trade tricks you into reading a Spider-Man book. Thankfully, it is chronologically congruent to the ongoing storyline that we are covering so let's keep going.Spider-Man is framed for murder and the Thunderbolts are the only ones to can help (because everyone else is dead). Songbird and Mach-1 brawl with the web-slinger while Atlas signs a rooftop autograph using his fingernails. It is ultimately revealed the Enclave (aka Wilford Brimley and the Egon Spanglers) are sending androids out to muck up the works and that really steams Mach-1's ponytail.Also, Spider-Man hits a brick wall, Stan Lee makes Batman obese, Techno goes full Dolby and Mary Jane's course books are just too damn EXPENSIVE!All this plus Jen and Shawn share their experience at the latest RetroMania and talk about the new, bizarre Superman movie toys.*** PROPER COMIC BOOK DISCUSSION STARTS AT 00:12:30 ***Promos: 8TW AUDIO WORKS (https://twotruefreaks.com/podcast/8tw-promo-pilot-season/)Continue the conversation with Shawn and Jen on Twitter / Instagram / Facebook / Threads / Bluesky or email the show at worstcollectionever@gmail.comAlso, get hip to all of our episodes on YouTube in its own playlist! https://bit.ly/WorstCollectionEverYTDownload the podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and wherever you get your favorite shows.
