Exit Ready is the podcast for agency owners who want to build a business that's profitable, scalable, and worth something without them in it. Whether that means selling one day or simply stepping back from the day to day, the work to get there is the same.
Hosted by Connor McAuley, who built a creative agency from zero to £2.2M annual revenue over 13 years before selling it. He now coaches 50+ agency owners who collectively generate £40M+ in additional annual revenue through the part most people get stuck on: making the commercial side of the business match the quality of the work.
Each episode is a real conversation with a real agency owner. No Ted talk answers, no polished advice. Just the decisions they made, the numbers behind them, and what they would do differently.
You will hear from founders who have been through pricing shifts, team restructures, sales system builds, and the uncomfortable transition from doing the work to running the business. Every story is truthful. Every number is real.
If you run an agency doing £500K to £5M and the profit doesn't reflect the effort, this show was built for you.
