Are you stuck in the grind, hiding behind “hustle culture” to justify the constant overtime? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to keep sacrificing your relationships, health, or freedom to build a successful agency.

Welcome back to The Agency Hour, the show that helps web design and digital agency owners create real abundance—for themselves, their teams, and the communities they serve.

In this episode, host Troy Dean sits down with Simon Kelly, CEO and Head of Growth at Seriously Good Design, to explore what it really takes to step into your role as a business owner—and finally stop doing everything yourself.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

  • Why you’ll never be completely satisfied with your team’s work—and why that’s actually a good thing

  • How to stop doing tasks that drain your time without losing revenue

  • The key mindset shift that moves you from technician to true business owner

  • Why obsessing over perfect processes may be keeping your business small

  • What overworking is actually helping you avoid (and how to break the cycle)

“Your job is to think—not to do everything yourself,” Troy reminds us. Leadership is about defining the outcome, not controlling every step.

If you’re ready to scale your agency and reclaim your time, join our new community for just $1. Every week, Troy goes live with actionable strategies to help you build a business that works—for you.
