Sustainable Agency Growth Without Burnout, Bottlenecks, or Hustle
Manage episode 498425255 series 3386506
You’ve scaled your agency — but now you’re carrying too much, spinning too many plates, and wondering how to grow without grinding harder.
In this episode, I’m joined by Lindsey Busfield, VP at Optimize My Firm and host of The Personal Injury Marketing Minute. Lindsey is a leading voice in legal SEO — but what makes this conversation essential for high-performing agency leaders isn’t SEO strategy... it’s how she built a sustainable agency growth model by stepping back from burnout, clarifying her strengths, and structuring a team around what actually works.
We talk about team design that fuels performance, how to stop being the bottleneck, and the systems she used to scale from a small operation to a nationally respected SEO firm — all without selling her soul to the hustle.
If you’re ready to build with clarity, create capacity without chaos, and grow in a way that lasts, this conversation is your blueprint.
