How to Own Your Agency and Your Life with Mike Schmidt and AJ Rivera Part 1

In this candid and high-energy episode, host Nic Padilla sits down with Mike Schmidt and AJ Rivera, the dynamic duo behind Agency Coach. From Southern California and Tucson roots to launching a multimillion-dollar agency, Mike and AJ open up about their early days, their partnership, and how they shifted from grinding solo to building a scalable team-based business. They also share how a single job post changed AJ’s trajectory, how they approached recurring revenue, and why so many agency owners fall into the trap of “owning a job, not a business.”
