Most agencies struggle with sales because they fall into the generalist trap, saying “yes” to every client, creating inefficiencies, and burning out. In this episode, Corey Quinn reveals the deep specialization flywheel that flips the script helping you attract premium clients, scale with systems, and position yourself as the go-to authority in your niche.

Drawing on his 20+ years in the agency space (including scaling Scorpion from $20M to $200M), Corey walks you step-by-step through how strategic specialization transforms agency growth.
