The Life Cycle of Agencies is a framework that we've developed to help think about the maturation of an agency over its lifetime. It helps agency owners identify the common problems, needs, and solutions they could face at each stage of their life cycle and what to focus on to bring them to the next phase. The four stages are: 1. [Create Mode: $0 - $1M ](https://blog.upsourcedaccounting.com/create-mode) 2. [Build Mode: $1M - $3M](https://blog.upsourcedaccounting.com/build-mode) 3. [Grow Mode: $3M - $10M](https://blog.upsourcedaccounting.com/grow-mode) 4. [Scale Mode: $10M+](https://blog.upsourcedaccounting.com/scale-mode) Click each stage to be directed to the corresponding video.
