Rob and Greg discuss:

  • COO vs CEO - ideas vs making it happen
  • Work ON or IN the agency
  • Lessons
    • Documented processes (track time for selling time) - efficiency leads to profitability… so we must avoid screw-ups… or lose clients/team - so reduce the bumps in the road
    • Do client work for too long
    • Dependent on referrals - get a sales team or process
    • HR Leader
    • No business education
  • Use Culture Index
  • Customer Service Rapport: Kaizan.ai
  • Service is easy but business growth is hard
  • Don’t be scared to let go and let others do the work
