Building 5 Agencies In 2 Years with John Ghiorso of Orca Pacific
November 28, 2024
In this episode of Confessions of a B2B Entrepreneur, Tom Hunt interviews John Ghiorso, founder of Orca Pacific, an Amazon-focused agency that he grew to 100 people and 8 figures before selling to Media Monks.
John discusses the importance of having a niche focus for agencies, building a full-stack growth team, transitioning from a commission-based model to a retainer-based model, the challenges of the agency landscape, why agencies shouldn't sell their proprietary tech stack, and his decision to sell Orca Pacific.
