Do You Have the Right Support to Grow Your Agency? 3 Benefits of Community with Darby Copenhaver | Ep #736
Do you need guidance in your agency journey? Could a coach be the game changer your agency needs? Maybe so, but maybe not. Many agency owners naturally turn to a coach for support and growth advice. And, while coaches excel at addressing specific challenges, their impact often plateaus after a few months due to the inherent limitations of single-perspective coaching.
Today’s featured guest is our scale specialist who has closely observed the growth trajectories of numerous mastermind members. Through his unique vantage point, he's witnessed how the most valuable exchanges often occur organically — outside of scheduled meetings — when members freely share experiences and insights. These connections flourish during in-person events, where authentic relationships take root.
He sees the way these relationships foster trust and create a dynamic environment for growth that transcends what any single “business coach” provides.
