  • EP 279 - The Exact Milestone That Makes Marketing Agencies Profitable
    Apr 5 2026

    If you’ve been feeling like you’re working harder for less (and somehow still one invoice away from a stress rash), this episode is going to feel like a cold glass of water.

    Fab is breaking down the Planable x SE Ranking 2026 Agency Profitability Report: and the data is honestly so juicy.

    And the difference between those two worlds isn’t “work harder” or “post more”. It’s hitting a few specific, very unsexy milestones that change the maths of your business.
