from BizGrowMojo · host Ryan Amen

Russ Perry went from closing a dying creative agency to building Design Pickle—an eight-figure subscription design service working with 10,000-15,000 projects monthly. But his path to success wasn't about being more creative or doing flashy work. It was about focusing on the boring, repetitive design tasks nobody else wanted to systematize. In this episode, Russ reveals: Why figuring out the parts of the business that were working the best and not stressing him out led to going all in on a model that made all the difference.
