EP 52: Matt Inglot on the Truth Behind Membership Sites, When a Business Truly Becomes Passive-Income, and One Advantage of an Agency Over a Service-Based Business

On today’s episode I’ve got serial entrepreneur and badass business owner, Matt Inglot.

Matt owns several businesses, including Freelance Transformation that helps freelancers become more successful, and Tilted Pixel, his agency that helps grow membership website companies.

I met Matt years ago when he invited me on his podcast and we’ve stayed in touch since just because we are so aligned in our philosophy on business, and because he was also solely focused on helping service businesses grow for the longest time.

We talk about the importance of iteration and of taking the opportunity with every client, every project, to take what you’ve learned and do it better next time, so you can raise the value–and the price–of your services.

We also talk about how Matt found his niche with membership businesses and how he grew his skill set so that he could grow his offerings and his business.

You’ll never get it perfect on the first try, but if you take each experience and learn from it, you can build a REALLY BOSS business pretty quickly.
