Wake Up Call: 9 lessons learned leading a digital agency through several years of rapid growth
BCI Webinar
9 years ago Ryan accepted a role to join Dan Fallon and team at a small independent PPC agency in Bath called SearchStar.
Over the course of the next 5 years the team grew from 18 to 60, they multiplied revenue by 4 times, retained profitability levels and successfully sold to a Global Localisation company.
