Scale or Die is WRONG with Joel Miller on Your Business Growth Podcast

What if you could grow revenue every year for 18 years — with no employees, no outside investment, and a business that shuts off at 5pm? Our guest today built exactly that.

But it didn’t start that way. He spent the early years of his agency doing 80-hour weeks, arguing with clients over hourly estimates, grinding through projects for people who cared more about the rate than the result.

Around year four, he made one change: he stopped billing for time and started pricing for value. The clients changed. The conversations changed. The hours came down.

The revenue went up. And the model he built with his twin brother has now outlasted most of the “scale or die” agencies that launched alongside them.

Welcome to today’s episode of Your Business Growth Podcast. I’m your host, Jeremy Shapiro, author of Your Business Growth Playbook, and my guest today is Joel Miller.
