Margins and Profitability Targets

With YG3, most agencies can comfortably hit:

The Real Leverage: Multiplying Value per Person

When one team member can deliver the output of 3–5, your agency’s margin isn’t just higher—it’s anti-fragile.

You gain:

Flexibility under pressure
More pricing power
Increased client satisfaction
Space to focus on strategy instead of production

YG3 is the tool that turns labor into leverage—and leverage into profit.
