Summary
Running a boutique agency isn’t just about client work and creative projects, there’s a whole layer of behind-the-scenes expenses that most people never see. In today's episode, we’re pulling back the curtain and breaking down exactly what it costs to run Duo Collective, from payroll and software to retreats, education, and everything in between. We’re sharing real numbers, where we choose to invest, where we stay lean, and how we think about spending as our business grows. If you’ve ever wondered what it actually looks like to run a team or you’re navigating your own business expenses, this is an honest, behind-the-scenes look you don’t hear often.
