In this episode of the Agency Spark Podcast, Sara interviews Ellen Jantsch. Ellen leads the team at Tuff, a 10-person remote growth marketing team for hire. They team up with startups and small businesses to help them prioritize high-impact growth campaigns to quickly identify the highest ROI channel and then scale it.
Questions Sara asks Ellen Jantsch:
- What made it motivated you to actually take action and launched Tuff in the first place?
- What’s the difference between focusing on things like Google ads or Facebook ads versus positioning yourself as a full growth agency?
- You’re focused on revenue and not ad spends — what do you mean by that?
- When clients aren’t patient enough for strategy and long-term SEO growth, how do you get some of those quick wins in place?
- Are there some resources that you would recommend for other agency owners there?
- How are you determining what roles you need to fill before you’re actually going out and looking for these positions?
- Are your growth marketers the main point of contact for your clients?
- How many different engagements can a growth marketer run at once?
- Where have you found your growth marketers and channel experts that you’ve hired?
- What does a typical workday look like for you as the founder?
