How to Grow a Purpose-Driven Agency Without Burning Out with Jessika Phillips

Sick of feeling like scaling means selling out? Growing your business shouldn’t come with a side of chaos and compromise - but that’s exactly where so many founders get stuck. What if building a dream team and creating sustainable systems could feel just as aligned as your mission?

In this episode of Sales Is Not a Dirty Word, I sit down with Jessika Phillips - founder of NOW Marketing Group and queen of relationship marketing - to talk about how she built a 7-figure agency rooted in authenticity, community, and heart. From getting laid off while pregnant to leading a 12-person team with full benefits (and full buy-in), Jessika shares the behind-the-scenes growing pains most people won’t admit.

You’ll learn:
✔️ Why your team (and clients) don’t stick around just for money - and what they actually want
✔️ The subtle signals you’ve outgrown a client (and how to break up without the drama)
✔️ How to avoid hiring disasters by asking the right questions up front
✔️ What collaborative role design looks like - and why it leads to longer retention
✔️ How building culture early saves your sanity later (hint: don’t skip the manifesto)
