GYDA STRATEGY WORKBOOK

Running a business is not easy. It is certainly not as easy as everyone makes out… or is it? Taking you through a series of thought-provoking strategic exercises the GYDA – Strategy Workbook works to create a clearly defined strategy to take your digital agency to the next level. The workbook is unique, it makes you address every aspect of your life… make plans for the business, for your professional career and for your private life.

The strategy workbook references agencies, but is applicable for all types of businesses.

The workbook has two parts. Part One takes you through a strategy workout and Part Two is a journal to hold you accountable to the goals you have set. Are you game?

Here are Three of our Top Resources:

  • Guide to Shares, and Team Incentives

    Along with other tactics, we often encourage our clients to use the power of equity as a lever for growth and to build a better business, with an invested team.

    We’ve put together this simple, easy-to-understand guide to give you the lowdown on how equity and shares work and the knowledge you need to share ownership of your agency and motivate key people in the right way.

    What it includes: Why incentivis, the difference between shares, options and EMI schemes, conditions (when they kick in). deciding how much to give and types of shares.

  • Solving Problems Effectively - Introducing IDS from EOS™

    We spend a lot of time discussing (or just voicing concern) about issues and not enough time fixing problems. When we do solve problems, we are too focused on fixing the symptoms, not the root cause.

    Let's spend some time exploring the 'IDS' (Identify, Discuss, Solve) process and how you can use it in your business…

    Let’s Dedicate Time to Problem Solving

    Let’s do it Regularly and Have a Method

    Let’s Get Comfortable with Conflict

    Let's Solve Issues, Not Symptoms

  • Agency Accelerator Canvas

    The AAC (Agency Accelerator Canvas) is a single-page strategy and planning tool to help ignite the growth of your agency.

    Why does it work? Because it creates focus, defines our vision, sets out what we’re trying to achieve, and most importantly, how we’ll get there.

    It’s NOT full of business school jargon, and it sits on a single page so it can hang proudly on your wall as a daily reminder of what you're striving to achieve.

    Print it out, run a half-day workshop, share it with your team, and finally start growing your agency like you know you can.
