Scaling Agencies That Convert: Tyler Pigott on Building Sales Systems That Drive Growth
ABOUT EPISODE
Tyler Pigott, Senior Director of Sales at StoryBrand and Co-Founder at Agency Builders, joins the Pixel Perfect Podcast for a candid conversation about what it really takes to scale an agency with intention. Tyler shares how founders can move from taking every opportunity that comes their way to building focused, repeatable sales systems that drive sustainable growth. Drawing on his experience leading sales teams and coaching agency owners, he breaks down how a clear ICP, a well-defined vision, and disciplined communication work together to create momentum that lasts.
Across the discussion, Tyler and Adam explore the signs that an agency lacks clear direction, from chasing any client with a checkbook to team members who don't understand what they're building toward. They dig into why defining your ICP matters more than most founders think, how to communicate value consistently to clients who may not see all the work you're doing, and when it's time to hire your first salesperson as a forcing function for clarity. Tyler emphasizes that the first sales hire makes you answer the hard questions about your offerings, ideal clients, and positioning.
The episode also explores the mindset shifts required for sustainable growth. Tyler talks about defining your why beyond just revenue numbers, staying connected to customer challenges even as you scale, and recognizing that you're always selling to existing clients, not just new ones. He shares why founders need to constantly communicate what problems they solve, how AI is creating opportunities for agencies to bring clients along on the journey, and why showing value has never been more important. For agency leaders who want to grow without losing alignment, this episode offers a thoughtful, experience driven perspective on building clarity first and letting systems follow.
