In this episode, Jordan Ross sits down with Eddie Maalouf, founder of Bad Marketing, to unpack how he scaled his digital marketing agency from his mom’s basement to $20M in revenue.
Eddie breaks down the real challenges agency owners face when growing past the early stages — including hiring the right people, building systems that scale, and avoiding founder burnout.
He shares how implementing a profit-sharing model transformed team performance, accountability, and retention, while allowing him to step back from day-to-day execution.
The conversation also dives deep into personal branding as a growth lever, why most agencies struggle to attract top-tier talent, and why sustainable agency growth comes down to mastering two core acquisitions: talent and clients.
This episode is a must-listen for:
Digital marketing agency owners stuck at a growth ceiling
Founders hiring their first leadership team
Agencies exploring profit sharing or incentive structures
Operators building long-term, scalable businesses
