I'm super excited to be joined today by Kerry Guard, the co-founder, and COO of MKG Marketing. Most agencies struggle with massive employee churn, it's just one of the natures of the industry. Working at an agency is a fantastic way to gain experience and learn new skills, but it can also be hard work...which is why many agencies churn through employees at a high rate, constantly having to hire and replace talent. MKG, however, is different. In fact, they haven't lost an employee in years! And that has a lot to do with their people-first approach.
As the COO of MKG Marketing, Kerry has helped develop and put into action their company values which focus on a people-first approach. They offer their employees a great salary, top of the line benefits, and give them the flexibility that most agencies could never match. But their ability to retain top talent goes much further than that.
During this interview, I got to ask Kerry exactly how they built this incredible company culture, how we can apply their lessons to smaller online businesses, and how to create a healthy work-life balance while working remotely so we can stay mentally strong and avoid burnout.
