    Strategies for Building Effective Agency Services and Systems

    Note this is another AI-generated review of some of my written guides. In this case, 2 separate guides that are linked but I'd never tried to synthesize them, until I used NotebookLM to do that. AI does a pretty good job here IMHO and I got some interesting insights listening to the 'hosts' talk through my 2 guides. (1. "Effective agency systems" - which focused on establishing efficient operational systems, encompassing processes, platforms, and people management within a digital agency. 2. "Avoiding The Pitfalls of launching new services" - which provided a roadmap for launching and growing successful digital services, highlighting common pitfalls and strategies for overcoming them.) Agency Owner or Account Handler? Let me know what you think!

    Account Growth - The AI review special

    This one-off episode of Agency Thinking brings NotebookLM's nascent abilities to bear on a review of one of my agency guides - 'Account growth for savvy Account Handlers'. Created as a way of test-driving NotebookLM, it actually worked out to be a useful and engaging 'podcast' - have a listen.
