    How to Get AI Automation Clients | Episode 197

    [Cold open (Concise Description) ends at 07:13.] There has been a lot of buzz lately with people mentioning and starting "AI Automation Agencies", yet they have no idea how to sell or position the service. They're all operating under some expectation that businesses just inherently need or want these services, which is absolutely not the case. But that doesn't mean you can't sell it and that there isn't value for it. It all comes down to positioning. ----- MENTIONS IN THE EPISODE: r/agencynewbies threads: [Is this offer worth 2k monthly retainer?] https://www.reddit.com/r/agencynewbies/comments/1rkx1al/is_this_offer_worth_2k_monthly_retainer/ ----- RESOURCES: Want the tools and resources we recommend for agencies?

    The Restaurant Niche Episode | Episode 196

    In our pursuit of having an episode for every niche out there, we ran across Dante Montovano, who owns Seven Circle Media, a restaurant marketing agency. We knew restaurant marketing was unique, but we didn't realize how much we didn't actually know about the industry and what actually makes fast food places, QSRs, and fast-casual restaurants the most amount of money. Dante broke down exactly what it takes to be successful in the restaurant industry as a marketing agency and how knowing the industry is your secret weapon. ----- MENTIONS IN THE EPISODE: Dante Montovano https://www.linkedin.com/in/dante-montovano-21a54370/ Seven Circle Media https://www.sevencirclemedia.com/ ----- SPONSOR: This week’s episode is sponsored by Wix Studio. ----- RESOURCES: Want the tools and resources we recommend for agencies?

    Marketing Agencies Should Own Ad Accounts | Episode 195

    [Cold open (Cody is back from Hawaii) ends at 05:37.] Most agencies you talk to, as well as the entire internet, will tell you that clients should own their own ad accounts, and you should work inside them. But what if we told you this is the wrong way to do it? What if we told you that you are opening yourself up to potentially huge insurance and legal issues doing it this way? Listen to this episode and find out the correct way to protect yourself and your relationships with your clients. ----- RESOURCES: Want the tools and resources we recommend for agencies?

    Scaling With Boring Services | Episode 195

    [Cold Open (Professional paintball & 2-star reviews) ends at 16:31] In this episode, we talk about scaling with simple services. We break down why the things that actually grow an agency are often the least exciting to sell, how chasing trendy or “innovative” offers can create complexity instead of leverage, and what has actually worked for us as we’ve grown. We also discuss AI automation, local service ads, retention, and why repeatability matters more than sophistication. This episode is about focus. What makes a service scalable, why simple does not mean easy, and how choosing the right offers can change the trajectory of your agency. ----- RESOURCES: Want the tools and resources we recommend for agencies?

    The Best PR Strategy for Agencies That Gets Clients | Episode 194

    [Cold Open (Jake's Migraine) ends at 6:07] What if the best PR strategy for your agency has nothing to do with your own website? This week, we talk about how to build massive authority and get clients by leveraging established platforms that already have your target audience. We explain why building an audience from scratch is the slow way around. We share our lessons on using niche publications to build instant credibility and why we often prioritize these external sites over our own blog. We also dive into the new reality of AI search. We discuss why ranking number one on Google is no longer enough and what you need to do to ensure ChatGPT actually recommends your agency. ----- RESOURCES: Want the tools and resources we recommend for agencies?

    [Cold open (Busy Days, Zapier Debates, and Community Growing Pains) ends at 17:15.] In this episode, we talk through our goals for 2026. We break down what we want to focus on with the agency and the podcast, what’s changed in how we think about growth, and why being selective matters more now than ever. We also touch on audience expectations, visibility, and the trade-offs that come with putting opinions out publicly. This episode is about being intentional. What we are committing to, what we are stepping away from, and how those choices shape 2026. ----- RESOURCES: Want the tools and resources we recommend for agencies?

    Everything Wrong with Wix Studio in 2026 | Episode 191

    [Cold open [Jakes barber shop is obsessed with Peaky Blinders] ends at 08:16.] The Agency Growth Podcast officially has a new website! And it's built on Wix Studio. We kept our promise after our initial conversation with Kobi Gamliel, Head of Wix Studio, 2 years ago in episode 112. We dove in and put our first site on Wix Studio and so far, like it a lot. But... there are still some issues. There are some things that are no-brainers for agencies to want to use Wix Studio, but there are also some deal breakers depending on who you are and what your agency requires. One thing we really like about Wix is their ability to take criticism and feedback and actually do something about it. This episode serves as just that. ----- RESOURCES: Want the tools and resources we recommend for agencies?
