    Is SMMA saturated?
    You’ve probably seen this topic raised a million times by now or at least similar renditions to it;
    ‘SMMA is dead’
    ‘SMMA is saturated’
    ‘SMMA no longer works’
    You get the drift.
    The truth of the matter is that most of the people that claim it’s saturated either have failed in it or are trying to sell you an alternative to fill their own pockets.
    From my personal experience, I can wholeheartedly say that the concept of SMMA being ‘saturated’ is a heap of garbage.
    There are an abundance of businesses & markets who are in dire need of your services within this space.
    I’m proof of that.
    I literally built & scaled a 7-Figure agency (Northflow Consulting) in one of the most saturated niches ever; GYMS!
    So when people tell you SMMA is saturated, it’s usually translation for ‘I failed in SMMA so I’m going to blame the business model rather than myself’ or ‘I’m going to bring down this model & use it as a stepping stone to sell something else’
    Pick your poison.
    In this video, I’m going to be sharing the brutal truth about SMMA being ‘saturated’ & the importance of being careful with the opinions you consume online.
    I hope you find it helpful. If you do, consider subscribing :)
    Thanks,
    Charlie

    Charlie you, me, and very few other's understand the power of leveraging the value proposition in culmination with a consistent sales pipeline. By finding a profitable mix it is nearly impossible for an agency not to break into that 6 figures club. Am looking forward to the day we meet man. Your videos have helped me and my 5 person sales team. I force them to watch your stuff.

    I have decided to start video editing, shorts, adding captions agency. Generally making media. What I would recommend DO NOT OVERTHINK, start doing. Yesterday I decided to take actions. I posted on facebook groups, sent DM's etc, and guess what. I ve got my first client, I am making captions for his videos. First 30$ already on my account. And the best thing that it is DAY ONE. It's only the start, but the start is most important.

    In a saturated space, you will have to work harder for potentially less pay than in an unsaturated space. In other words, there are better opportunity vehicles that you can use to get the greatest leverage of your time. As Warren Buffet once said, it doesn't matter how fast you row, it matters what boat you're in.
