10 Years of Bread Loaf: The Wins, The Losses, and What's Next

July 14, 2026·18 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

10 years ago I started Bread Loaf as a freelancer. No team. No office. No guarantee it would work. Today we're a seven-figure agency with a global team — and I'm just getting started. In this episode I'm sharing the unfiltered story of what the last decade actually looked like. The early burnout. Losing equity I earned. Selling my truck to buy out my co-founder. Launching a team in Ukraine weeks before COVID hit. And the faith that kept this business alive through all of it. I'm also laying out exactly where Bread Loaf is going over the next 10 years — $100M, a venture arm, global expansion, and acquisitions. If you're building an agency or a service business for the long haul, this one is for you. ✅ Elevate your brand’s Email & SMS marketing: https://breadloaf.typeform.com/to/rotiGDm7?typeform-source=www.youtube.com  🚀 Discuss your growth strategy: https://calendly.com/markmilutin/retention-audit-kick-off?month=2025-02
