Perpetual Traffic

Ralph and Lauren sit down with Corey Quinn, Agency Growth Advisor and former CMO of Scorpion, to uncover the exact strategies that took a stalled $10–$20M agency and propelled it to over $100M in revenue. Corey reveals his “Dream 100” inspired outreach strategy, why DS (Dream Segment) and GBO (Greatest Business Outcome) are essential to focus, and how to build a repeatable system for landing high-value clients. If you run an agency, consultancy, or service business, this conversation will challenge the way you think about lead generation, positioning, and scaling — and give you the tactical blueprint to make your growth goals inevitable.
