I've been the client hiring agencies, never getting what we actually needed on the timeline we needed it, and left to fix the fallout myself. That's the real reason Scale 1128 exists.
I spent the last stretch running day-to-day operations and CRO for an ecommerce brand before going all-in on Scale 1128. Now I take on client work by referral or direct request, one project at a time, with the same hands-on care.
