Today we have something special for you. To commemorate the 100th episode of Launch Chat, Adam Clark, founder of Podcast Royale interviews Jake to learn a little more about the man behind the podcast and how he has worked through the issues that so many of you ask in your daily questions. Hitting 100 episodes of a podcast is a special accomplishment. Despite the number of podcasts out there, the majority of them only make it through 7-10 episodes before throwing in the towel. It takes a lot of time and effort to build a following, so hitting 100 episodes is something to celebrate. Four years ago, Jake decided to go all in on LaunchPeer. He was working for a big development firm at the time, servicing clients such as Coca-Cola. He noticed that while the work they were doing was high-quality, their processes and pricing were set up to serve only large companies, not small businesses or startups. And that was exactly what he aimed to do with LaunchPeer. As is the case with most startups, the first few years were hard. Two years in and Jake was still struggling to get the business into solid footing. It was a do-or-die moment and he even started sending out resumes in preparation for the worst. But while he was sending out those resumes, Jake made a key decision that completely turned around the business and set the foundation for what it is today. He started talking (and listening) to his customers. People often get overwhelmed by the thought of sitting down with their customers and doing interviews, etc., but it doesn’t have to be that complicated. It can be as straightforward as advertising for a potential new product and seeing if anyone buys it. If they don’t, move on and don’t waste time building something no one wants. Listening to his customers led to a complete overhaul of the business, from branding and direction to services offerings and pricing models. The plan worked and Jake didn’t end up needed those resumes after all. Currently, Jake and the Launchpeer team are writing a book call Launch Recipes. The book is a look at 40 unicorn startups and the ingredients they used to become the successes they are. Head over to LaunchRecipes.com and sign up to be notified when the book is released. In this episode Jake talks about: The challenges of podcasting and how it feels to make it to 100 episodes. What Launch Peer is and why he started the company. Struggling to make his company work and how he turned things around. Talking to and actually listening to your customers. Main Takeaways For a podcast to be successful you have to be in it for the long haul. It’s not a short-term marketing strategy. Building the business your customers want is more important than building the business you want. Being happy in your work is far and away more important than the size of the paycheck you bring home. A lot of being a successful entrepreneur is about luck, but luck can’t strike if you throw in the towel too early.

The Tech Life with host Rich Conte together with Silicon Harbor Magazine bring you Silicon Harbor Radio; news and interviews from the Technology, Creative and Entrepreneur communities in Charleston, SC.

Today's guest, Jake Hare, has tons to share about overcoming struggles in the first year of agency ownership. He got his start developing apps while serving as Lead Intelligence Analyst in the military. Today he is co-founder of Launchpeer, a digital agency serving startups and entrepreneurs in the South. Learn how he generated niche leads for his agency.   Why Start an Agency? After spending 3 ½ years in 101st Airborne Division at Fort Campbell, Jake went on to do government contract work in software development. Once he realized he wasn't passionate about his work, he started taking on side jobs developing apps. In late 2014 he and his two partners decided it was time to go all in, so they founded Launchpeer. As a husband, father and part-time grad school student this was a giant leap of faith!  Struggles in Early Agency Days For Jake and his partners the hardest part of maintaining the agency this first year has been generating leads outside of their personal contacts. After working with friends (who naturally expected special pricing) The 3 co-founders brainstormed ways to drum up new business outside their circle. They tried to white label their services for larger agencies which didn't work out because other agencies weren't receptive to the idea. (They had not read my take on white labeling!) They tried networking events, which did bring in some business but takes tons of time and yields little results. They also got some referral business but word of mouth is not a scalable way to grow business. Finding Ways to Capture and Convert Niche Leads When they got to a point where they had no new jobs and no new niche leads, Jake did some online searching and discovered my Generate Leads Everyday program. They bought the program and made the decision to niche and focus on marketing to just one type of business -- startups and entrepreneurs in the South.  Jake admits it was super scary but the guys were forced to either take action or look at shutting down. How a 0.3% Opt-In Rate Grew to 32% in 6 Weeks With a 0.3% opt-in rate, Launchpeer had nowhere to go but up. Jake and his partners got themselves out of the mindset that their website was a showpiece. They scrapped their entire site and changed the content to focus on the prospect and not themselves. They created landing pages focused on the lead and how Launchpeer can solve their problems. They created a Foot In the Door offer to drive traffic to their landing pages and marketed on Facebook. Jake says there was a lot of testing and tweaking involved in getting everything just right. In fact, he laughs about one of the biggest tweaks that happened when he was investigating why their Facebook ad click-through rate was lower than expected. He realized he had chosen to advertise to “southern-based entrepreneurs who speak English-UK”. One silly slip-up and he was aiming his ads at Brits in the U.S. South! :) Trial and error plays a big role in getting results, too. They did split testing on their Foot In the Door landing pages and discovered a simpler ad converts more than a wordier one...  This analysis and experimenting is what resulted in Launchpeer's 0.3% opt-in rate to reach 10% and eventually to 32%+ over a 6-week period. On interview date, Launchpeer was spending $20 per day and getting 6-10 leads per day. The exponential growth and potential opportunity far exceed their daily cost! Best Advice from a New Agency Owner “Don't be afraid to take action. I know it can be scary,” says Jake. But, if what you're doing isn't working then the best thing you can do is something else. And as I always say, action leads to transactions. Being a business owner is tough and scary, no matter who you are… but doing nothing and closing your doors will be tougher and scarier. Ready to Take Action? Referrals are not scalable. So, if you are ready to take action that will lead to more leads every day, head over to GenerateLeadsEverday.com. This is the exact system I use, Jake uses and my clients use to grow and scale their businesses. Want More Advice?
