Show notes

Feb 7, 2024

Hi there and welcome back to another edition of ScaleUp Radio, the podcast inspired by the Entrepreneurial ScaleUp System and designed to make navigating our ScaleUp journeys that little bit easier by learning from others' experiences. I’m Kevin Brent and this week on the show I’m joined by   Hannah Springett, CEO and Founder of HLabs as we dive into the dynamic world of digital agency scaling. In just 59 minutes, we unpack HLabs' remarkable journey from a one-person show to a thriving team of 42 in three short years.

 

Discover key takeaways, such as the strategic hiring of passionate graduates, the transformative impact of an external business coach, and the global talent acquisition strategy that fuelled their growth.

 

Hannah shares insights on maintaining a vibrant remote-first culture, navigating client relationships from publishers to direct brands, and the pivotal decisions that shaped HLabs' trajectory.

 

Join us as we explore the challenges, triumphs, and the exciting future vision of having a global team in every major time zone for 24/7 production capability.

Most founders I speak to feel busy but stuck; plenty happening, but not always clear on what genuinely matters most this quarter. If that’s you, the G90 Summit is worth a look. A structured half-day where we work through everything competing for your attention, get clear on the three to five things that must happen in the next 90 days, then commit to them and build the system to make sure they actually happen. Quarterly, virtual, £97 a seat.
