Colby Wegter

Founder

I'm a 35 year old dad of 3. I grew up in the middle of nowhere Iowa and then moved all over. To Dublin, where I finished an Elementary Education degree. To New York, where I was employee number 12 at BrandYourself (we got on Shark Tank and turned down Robert 😉). To Minneapolis and Chicago, where I started a Top 100 digital marketing agency in the USA. And now in Milwaukee, where my mission is to own my time 100% and buy as much coffee as I want.

I do that by helping overwhelmed founders + owners buy back their time and lead their companies better.

Having multiple burnouts in the agency setting, even while I was keeping clients for years while my competitors were keeping them for 6 months, made me think differently.

Everyone is trying to scale in the wrong way. They want to chase business instead of attract it. They want to sell new people instead of delight those already paying them. They want to hire early without nailing their vision and roadmap.

This recipe burns out business owners and it's a damn shame.

I'd love to be on your show because I can help people who BELIEVE they have to do it the same way as everyone else and show them that thinking for themselves, focusing on retention to build attraction, and planning for the life they want today, will get them where they want to go far quicker. They'll also be more healthy and happy as they do it.

Other core competencies of mine are how to:
- Stop cold outreach and build an inbound marketing strategy
- Keep employees happy every week and make them say, "This is the best job I've ever had."
- Build a personal brand that floods your inbox with opportunity
- And more

I've also attended and led hundreds of meetings a year for a decade. My clear and effective speaking has led me to all my successes thus far. I aim to make your episode one that you'll want to listen to again.
