Welcome to another insightful episode of Build a Better Agency! This time, host Drew McLellan teams up once again with research partner Susan Baier from Audience Audit to unpack the findings from the highly anticipated 2026 Agency EDGE study. Together, they examine how AI is impacting agencies and, more importantly, the shifting expectations and priorities of agency clients in this rapidly changing landscape. Drew and Susan discuss how clients' attitudes toward AI have evolved dramatically over the past year. Gone are the days of uncertainty and secrecy—now, clients expect agencies to be transparent about their use of AI and, even more significantly, to serve as strategic guides and governance partners in the age of automation. The conversation explores three core client segments that have emerged: strategic stewards prioritizing brand protection, adaptive accelerators seeking innovation at speed, and performance pragmatists laser-focused on measurable outcomes. You'll hear why differentiation is more important than ever for agencies, especially as client expectations for sophisticated strategy, proactive guidance, and data-driven decision-making continue to rise. The hosts also highlight new business opportunities for agencies willing to lead on AI adoption, particularly in providing governance and integrating technology across the buyer's journey. If you want to understand what clients truly value today—and how your agency can step up to claim a central, irreplaceable role—this episode is essential listening. Packed with actionable insights, it's a must for any agency leader eager to thrive in the AI era and beyond. A big thank you to our podcast's presenting sponsor, White Label IQ.

Before you dive in… this is part 2 of a 2-part series, so don't be that person who starts a movie halfway through and asks what's going on. Go watch/listen to part 1 on the AM/PM Podcast first, where Bradley breaks down the AI and product research strategies that set up this Maldives Honeymoon launch strategy: https://h10.me/am526 In this special episode of the Serious Sellers Podcast, Bradley Sutton returns to the Maldives for episode 750 and breaks down his latest “Maldives Honeymoon” launch strategy. This time, he shares the exact tactics he recently tested to get new products to page one for multiple keywords in less than five days. From keyword research to listing optimization, this episode is packed with launch strategies for Amazon sellers who want to give their products the strongest possible start. Bradley explains why a successful launch begins before PPC campaigns ever go live. Sellers need to study competitor reviews, analyze TikTok Shop reviews, look at Rufus questions (Quick note: Rufus is now rebranded as Alexa for Shopping), and understand what kind of images are working in their niche. He also walks through several ways to build a stronger keyword list, including Cerebro, Brand Analytics, Search Query Performance, historical keyword research, opportunity keywords, competitor PPC data, Etsy keywords, frequently bought together products, and Spanish-language keyword indexing. One of the biggest takeaways from this episode is the importance of testing Amazon's understanding of your product before launch. Bradley shares how Amazon initially misunderstood two new products he launched, which caused poor impressions and weak Rufus visibility. By sending relevancy signals and checking Amazon Recommended Rank keywords, he helped Amazon better understand the products, leading to a major increase in PPC impressions and faster keyword rankings. Bradley also covers launch execution, including how to choose keywords you have the “right to win,” set up exact match launch campaigns, use discounts strategically, monitor CPR numbers, activate alerts, and drive outside traffic through TikTok Shop creators. But the episode ends with a powerful personal reminder: while business growth matters, entrepreneurs should not lose sight of family and time. The strongest launch strategy may help you win on Amazon, but the strongest life strategy is making sure you do not miss the moments you can never get back.

Ever noticed your Amazon sales dropping and immediately blamed your ads? We all do it! In this episode, Michael and Campaign Manager Olena reveal a massive secret about what is really killing your sales.It turns out you do not have to be completely out of stock to lose money. Just having a lower inventory drops your conversion rate and your sales velocity. Olena actually brought the receipts for this one. She stacked daily Business Reports and Inventory Ledgers to prove this crazy theory with hard data.When she looked at the numbers, she found something wild. One client could never break $9,600 a day in sales with low stock. But they always hit over $10,000 when fully stocked. Why does this happen? It is all about the Amazon algorithm and delivery times. When your stock is low, it does not go down equally everywhere. This means longer delivery times in certain states, which hurts your regional conversions.We'll see you in The PPC Den!

Ed conducted a training session on Google Local Service Ads (LSA) for the Agent Power Huddle group, sharing his experience and strategies for generating high-quality real estate leads. Ed explained how LSA leads differ from traditional PPC ads, emphasizing their search-triggered nature and higher intent, with leads costing around $75 per call and being verified by AI to ensure quality. He detailed the setup process, including creating a Google My Business profile, verifying credentials, and setting an initial budget of $500-1,000 per week, which he later increased to $10,000 to demonstrate serious business intent. Ed shared his success story of generating 8 leads in 24 hours and securing 7 signed listing agreements within that timeframe, using a specific script that addresses the legal requirement of Senate Bill 5191 and offers flexibility in contract signing. He also discussed expanding from local to state-level targeting once systems are established and explained how to handle referrals when leads are outside your market area. The training concluded with Ed encouraging participants to set up their LSA profiles and emphasizing the importance of responding to leads within 5 minutes based on MIT study findings.

Purna Virji is back on the Digital Marketing Mentor for a second round, and this time she's talking about the intersection of AI strategy and executive content, two elements of content marketing that are transforming consumer trust and loyalty.Since Episode 62, Purna has expanded her role at LinkedIn to Applied AI Strategy Lead, and she brings that lens to a conversation about why human storytelling has never been more valuable. Plus, she details how AI fits into the equation without replacing the voice behind it.Episode Highlights:Purna shares why the rise of AI has made human storytelling more valuable, not less, and what the salary data on executive content roles actually signals about where the industry is heading.This discussion uncovers specific stats behind well-executed founder-led marketing: more leads, larger deal sizes, and faster pipeline when executives show up consistently.Purna shares three executive story types that work across all stages of the buyer journey, from completely unaware to ready to buy.She gives insights into extracting high-quality content from a time-strapped executive without asking them to write a single word.Purna revisits a topic she shared in her previous episode with Danny, diving deeper into why repurposing content isn't repetitive, and why reformatting content across channels is both an instructional design principle and a practical reach strategy.Episode Links: Episode 62 with Purna Virji: The Queen of Content SolutionsPurna on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/purnavirjiHigh Impact Content Marketing: AmazonFounder-Led Sales and Marketing Never Ends (Playbook): Download on LinkedInSend us Fan MailFollow The Digital Marketing Mentor:Website and Blog: thedmmentor.comInstagram: @thedmmentorLinkedin: @thedmmentorYouTube: @thedmmentorInterested in Digital Marketing Services, Careers, or Courses?

In this episode of the Harvest Growth Podcast, Jon LaClare sits down with Scott Anderson, entrepreneur, Air Force veteran, and founder behind multiple growing businesses, including iFlex, Optimal Weight and Wellness Med Spa, and Get VA Help.Scott shares the story of iFlex, a phone holder product that saw exciting early momentum in retail stores like Walmart, Office Depot, Staples, and Fred Meyer. But what looked like success on the surface quickly revealed a painful lesson: revenue does not always equal profit. After cutting pricing dramatically to meet Walmart's requirements and splitting already-tight margins between multiple partners, Scott realized the retail path was not the right long-term solution for his business.The conversation dives into how Scott took the product back, canceled the licensing deal, and rebuilt iFlex around customer feedback. By launching the improved iFlex Buddy, optimizing Amazon listings, investing in PPC, and paying closer attention to reviews, Scott was able to regain control of the brand and drive renewed growth on Amazon.Scott also shares how the lessons he learned from product development carried into his next venture: Optimal Weight and Wellness Med Spa in Sun City West, Arizona. What started as a one-room weight loss clinic quickly expanded into a seven-room med spa offering medically supervised weight loss, GLP-1 support, facials, dermaplaning, microneedling, massage therapy, red light therapy, and more.Finally, Scott introduces Get VA Help, a new platform designed to help veterans better understand their VA disability ratings. Powered by the Veteran Rating Intelligence System, or VRIS, the platform helps organize medical records, decision letters, exams, and supporting statements so veterans can better see how their records align with VA rating criteria.If you're building a product brand, considering retail, growing on Amazon, launching a service business, or looking for a real-world example of how customer feedback can shape better decisions, this episode is packed with practical lessons.In today's episode of the Harvest Growth Podcast, we cover:Why getting into Walmart is not always as profitable as it looksHow retail pricing pressure can destroy product marginsWhy Scott took iFlex back from a licensing dealHow customer feedback helped create the improved iFlex BuddyWhy Amazon reviews, PPC, and listing optimization helped restart growthHow Scott's mindset shifted from passive licensing to hands-on business managementWhat product founders can learn from listening closely to customersHow Optimal Weight and Wellness Med Spa grew from one room to seven roomsWhy Google reviews and community trust matter for local service businessesHow Get VA Help is being built to support veterans with VA disability rating clarityAnd so much more!Want to connect with Scott?Search for iFlex phone holder on Amazon to find the iFlex Buddy.

Welcome to a pivotal solo episode of Build a Better Agency! This week, host Speaker B takes listeners on an honest and insightful journey through the real work of agency leadership, exploring the mental and emotional shifts required to move from talented employee or manager to confident agency owner. Drawing on more than 25 years of experience and candid stories from agency owners nationwide, Speaker B unpacks the identity shift every leader must make—from seeking permission and sticking to their craft, to taking full, radical responsibility for the outcome of their business. You'll hear powerful confessions from new owners as they share those "aha" moments when the weight of ownership finally hit home, from financial scares to difficult personnel decisions. This episode tackles three essential lenses that shape the growth of agency leaders: developing a growth mindset (inspired by Carol Dweck), evolving from technician to true entrepreneur (with a nod to Michael Gerber's E-Myth), and embracing an ownership mentality as described by Carrie Siggins' "Ownership Mindset." Speaker B provides actionable advice on shifting beliefs that hold leaders back, such as hesitancy around finances, reluctance to delegate, and resistance to uncomfortable decisions. Whether you're a new or soon-to-be owner, an emerging leader, or a veteran still wrestling with self-doubt, this episode is packed with practical steps, introspective challenges, and resources to help you own your power and build an agency you're truly proud of. Don't miss this empowering discussion. A big thank you to our podcast's presenting sponsor, White Label IQ.

What You Will Learn in This Episode: Understand why the identity shift from employee to owner is the hardest part of the transition Learn the three critical lenses for developing an ownership mindset: growth mindset, role clarity, and responsibility ownership Discover the common triggers that make ownership feel real for most agency leaders Recognize why true leaders act like owners long before they own equity in the business Understand the difference between collaboration and abdication in leadership decisions Learn how to move from execution-focused to strategy-focused thinking as an owner Gain insights from real owner confessions about pivotal moments of realization Understand why financial literacy becomes critical when you truly own the outcomes Discover how accepting responsibility also grants you permission to change what's broken
Learn how Claude can help Amazon sellers organize workflows, automate tasks, improve keyword research, build smarter systems, and save time in business and life. AI is no longer just a tool for writing quick prompts or brainstorming ideas. In this episode of the AM/PM Podcast, Bradley Sutton sits down with Andrew Bell and Zoe Lu to explore how Amazon sellers can use Claude to organize their business, simplify daily tasks, and create repeatable systems that save serious time. Bradley opens by sharing his own failed attempt at using Claude for a presentation, proving an important point: AI is only as good as the context, instructions, and structure you give it. Andrew breaks down what makes Claude different from a basic chatbot experience. He explains how Claude Chat, Claude Co-Work, Claude Code, skills, sub-agents, and scheduled tasks can help sellers move from simple conversations to actual workflows. For Amazon sellers, this can mean pulling keyword data, organizing it into Excel, mapping search intent, building product truth cards, judging keyword relevance, and even using Claude to support listing optimization, PPC planning, and product research. Zoe then brings the conversation back to a beginner-friendly level by explaining how sellers can get started. Her advice is to install the desktop app, use Claude Co-Work, create a “brain” folder with personal and business context, connect the tools you already use, and turn repeated tasks into projects, schedules, dashboards, or skills. From managing calendars and emails to organizing files, creating daily briefs, analyzing customer feedback, or preparing for meetings, Claude becomes more powerful when it understands your goals and connects with your workflow. The biggest takeaway is that Amazon sellers do not need to become AI experts overnight, but they do need to start building AI into their operations. Claude can help reduce busywork, organize messy information, create smarter processes, and uncover insights faster when used correctly. For sellers who want to stay competitive, the opportunity is not just using AI once in a while, but building repeatable systems that help them work faster, think more clearly, and grow smarter. In episode 524 of the AM/PM Podcast, Bradley, Andrew, and Zoe discuss: 00:00 - Introduction 02:58 - Claude Vs. ChatGPT: What Amazon Sellers Should Know 04:33 - Claude Chat, Co-Work, And Code Explained 08:31 - Using Claude Skills Like Repeatable SOPs 12:49 - Turning Keyword Research Into Excel Workflows 16:18 - Product Truth Cards And Keyword Relevance Checks 19:02 - Helium 10 MCP And Faster AI Workflows 20:12 - Simple Life Automation Ideas With Claude 25:59 - Zoe's Beginner Guide To Getting Started 29:02 - Building A “Brain” Folder For Better Outputs 35:23 - Tasks, Projects, Scheduled Agents, And Dashboards 42:31 - Q&A: Helium 10 Claude Connector, Agents, And Claude Workflows

Rolando never could have predicted that a college computer, a printer, and an old school wall phone in his kitchen would lead him down the path of entrepreneurship. But that's exactly how it happened. In 2002, he founded Global Tech Worldwide with the goal of making it easy for businesses to use the right office technologies for better and frictionless customer interactions that help businesses elevate their customer interactions and turn them into rich, meaningful discussions. Fast forward to today, and after spending ten years selling on Amazon, he is on his third startup circuit. Com because he was frustrated with the lack of transparency and outdated methods of buying broadband, wireless and fiber internet for small and medium sized businesses. So with that introduction, welcome to the show, Rolando.Rolando 00:00:53 Woo! Woo woo woo woo. Woo woo. Let me try. Let me try.Josh 00:00:56 Hey, there you go. Hey.Rolando 00:00:57 There we go.Josh 00:00:58 You got the audio work?Rolando 00:00:59 I got it, I got it I got him to work.Josh 00:01:02 Rolando has his own podcast and we recorded an episode last week I was on, I was in the reverse side. I was the guest there. And that I told you, Rolando, I love the sound effects that you have going on in your podcast.Rolando 00:01:15 You know what? I'm here. You know what? Go get a stream deck, go get it and call me, and I'll help you set it up. Because it took me a while. I left it in the box for quite some time before I actually started using it, because I was a little intimidated. I'm not an Avi guy or anything like that, but, you know, I was like, all right, let me add one, two, three. And I was like, ooh. And now I've got a couple of those buttons set up for it.Josh 00:01:38 I love it, I love it. All right, Rolando, there's another really wicked smart strategy that I want you to share with our audience that you shared with me prior to hitting the record button.Josh 00:01:48 And this is your amazing PPC strategy that I have never heard anybody else talk about this other than yourself. everybody's always heard of de parting, right? And that's kind of the new hot PPC term, but this isn't Dave Harding. This is something, I think, even more intelligent than what De parting is. So I've laid out the red carpet for you there, Rolando. Give us the gold nugget.Rolando 00:02:13 Yeah, right. So de parting is just simply ad scheduling. You know, run an ad on a schedule. Nothing new there. But what if. Chad. Chad, I was just talking to Chad. What if Josh. We could map or have ads show up when we have our ideal customers on Amazon? How can we do that? Can we pull it off? And can we save money while we're doing that? That's really what we wanted to find out. Turns out there is a way to do it. Not easy, not clean. But there was. So we went and pulled data from our orders for 12 months, and we used, Seller Labs product that they have or service that's called Data Hub.Rolando 00:02:59 and it pulled in all that data, right? It's our own data. So we didn't have to do all these crazy reports from Amazon. Pulled it all in. Once they pulled that in I said, wait a minute, guys. I'm not a mathematician here. This is just a spreadsheet with a bunch of numbers. Can we do something better? So then we put together something that anybody could easily use in the organization. We put together a heat map so that you can visually see the data. And, you know, dark green means good, red is bad. And guess what? We found golden hours every day of the week. Also golden months also patterns within those months. For example summertime for our products which are mostly office related products. After 4 p.m. on a Friday, we've virtually had no orders on the summer months. So if I'm a betting man, Why would I run PPC after 4 p.m. if we're not getting any orders? Another one was when? on the weekends, you hear people say this all the time.Rolando 00:04:12 And now that I have the data for our stuff, I know it's totally wrong. You got to run ads on Saturday and Sunday because people browse Saturday and Sunday and buy on Monday. The evidence does not hold that up in our case, because in our case, most of our activity, nearly 85 to 90% of the purchases c...

La publicidad en Amazon dejó de ser simplemente "poner campañas" para convertirse en una pieza estratégica que define el crecimiento o el estancamiento de una marca. En un marketplace cada vez más competitivo, donde los costos cambian constantemente y las decisiones deben tomarse en tiempo real, la Inteligencia Artificial comienza a ocupar un lugar central. Christian Delgado, especialista en marketing, representante de BQool y experto en negocios internacionales, explica cómo la IA está transformando la manera en que las marcas optimizan su PPC dentro de Amazon. Uno de los problemas más comunes dentro de las campañas publicitarias aparece desde el inicio: la estructura. Muchas marcas lanzan campañas sin organización clara, mezclando palabras clave, objetivos y segmentaciones: "Entre los problemas principales que puede resolver Bqool para PPC en Amazon es armar bien la estructura al lanzar campañas". Christian afirma que esto suele suceder cuando falta experiencia o cuando varias personas gestionan una misma cuenta. En ese contexto, herramientas impulsadas por IA como BQool permiten ordenar, optimizar y maximizar el trabajo de los especialistas, evitando errores que terminan afectando el rendimiento de la inversión publicitaria. El mercado de Amazon cambia constantemente y reaccionar tarde puede costar ventas. Allí aparece otra gran ventaja de la automatización inteligente. "El humano no puede estar las 24 horas todos los días de la semana, y la herramienta genera pequeños movimientos para mantener las campañas actualizadas", destaca nuestro invitado. La IA de BQool analiza cambios de precios, variaciones del mercado y comportamiento de las campañas para ajustar automáticamente estrategias que manualmente tomarían demasiado tiempo. Esto permite mantener competitividad sin depender exclusivamente de intervenciones humanas constantes. La optimización de palabras clave también se vuelve mucho más precisa cuando interviene la Inteligencia Artificial. Christian señala que "la IA ayuda a optimizarlas, tras el estudio del mercado, generando mayor conversión y tráfico". En Amazon, aparecer frente al cliente correcto marca la diferencia entre una campaña rentable y una que simplemente consume presupuesto. Gracias al análisis de datos y tendencias del nicho, la IA puede detectar oportunidades, ajustar keywords y encontrar patrones difíciles de identificar manualmente. Sin embargo, Christian deja claro que la automatización no reemplaza la estrategia humana: "En Bqool tenemos bien claro que el factor humano y la experiencia son irremplazables". La IA simplifica procesos, automatiza tareas repetitivas y mejora tiempos de reacción, pero la dirección estratégica sigue dependiendo de quien entiende el negocio, el producto y el mercado. La combinación entre experiencia humana y tecnología es lo que realmente permite construir campañas sólidas y sostenibles. Otro de los grandes desafíos en PPC tiene que ver con las emociones. Cuando una campaña no da resultados rápidos, muchos vendedores toman decisiones impulsivas que terminan perjudicando el rendimiento general. Christian asegura que una herramienta automatizada puede ayudar a reducir esas decisiones emocionales y reemplazarlas por ajustes basados en datos reales y comportamiento del mercado. La IA no actúa por ansiedad ni frustración, sino por análisis y patrones de rendimiento. Además, cuanto más tiempo trabaja una herramienta como BQool sobre una cuenta, más inteligente se vuelve el sistema: "La IA va aprendiendo de la data de la cuenta más la data del mercado, específicamente del nicho de la tienda". Esto significa que las campañas no solo se optimizan en función del rendimiento interno de la marca, sino también considerando cómo se comporta el mercado y la competencia dentro de esa categoría específica de Amazon. La combinación entre PPC e Inteligencia Artificial ya no parece una ventaja opcional, sino una herramienta clave para competir dentro de Amazon. Automatizar procesos, optimizar palabras clave y tomar decisiones más rápidas y analíticas puede marcar una diferencia enorme en la rentabilidad de una marca.

Seven-figure Amazon sellers from Bulgaria and Romania reveal EU marketplace strategies, Prime Day tactics, ranking tips, Rufus optimization, and how they built brands across Amazon marketplaces. ► Watch The Podcasts On Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@Helium10SeriousSellersPodcast?sub_confirmation=1 ► Instagram: instagram.com/serioussellerspodcast ► Free Amazon Seller Chrome Extension: https://h10.me/extension ► Sign Up For Helium 10: https://h10.me/signup (Use SSP10 To Save 10% For Life) ► Learn How To Sell on Amazon: https://h10.me/ft What does it take to build a seven-figure Amazon business from Eastern Europe? In this episode, Bradley Sutton travels to Sofia, Bulgaria, to speak with experienced sellers from Bulgaria and Romania who have built successful brands across Amazon Europe and the U.S. marketplace. From workwear and cosmetics to pet supplements and ranking services, these sellers share how they found opportunities, scaled their businesses, and adapted as Amazon continued to evolve. The first story follows Iliyan Ivanov, a seller who started in advertising and eventually turned local workwear demand into a multi-million-euro Amazon brand. He explains how starting early in Amazon Europe gave his listings maturity, how Germany became his top marketplace, and how keyword research helped uncover unexpected seasonal demand around Germany's carnival season. He also shares how tools like Cerebro and Managed Refund Services helped his team with listing strategy, keyword targeting, and recovering money from Amazon reimbursement opportunities. Next, Bradley talks with another Bulgarian seller, Milcho Vasilkov, who used product research to enter categories he was not personally connected to, including maternity products, cosmetics, grocery, and pet supplements. His story highlights why sellers do not always need to be passionate users of their own products to succeed. Instead, he focuses on demand, customer behavior, marketplace fit, and smart inventory timing. He also shares Prime Day strategies for Europe, including building keyword position ahead of major events, using account managers for top deals, and extending promotional momentum after Prime Day. The final guest brings a Romanian seller, Marcel Marculescu's perspective on selling in the U.S. marketplace, and how Amazon ranking has changed over the years. After early product failures, he built a seven-figure Amazon business and now focuses on more sustainable launch and ranking strategies. He discusses using Vine, PPC, external traffic signals, keyword research, and Rufus optimization to help listings perform in today's Amazon ecosystem. The episode closes with a powerful reminder for sellers: success does not come from a single hack or a single marketplace, but from adapting early, watching the data, and building strategies that can survive the next Amazon change. In episode 748 of the Serious Sellers Podcast, Bradley, Iliyan, Milcho, and Marcel discuss: 00:00 - Seven-Figure Sellers From Bulgaria And Romania 00:50 - From Advertising Agency To Amazon Seller 03:20 - Launching A Bulgarian Workwear Brand 04:07 - Growing To €3 Million In Revenue 05:04 - Finding A Carnival Keyword Opportunity 07:43 - Expanding Across Amazon Europe 11:36 - Cerebro, Refunds, And Helium 10 Wins 14:21 - Building Mature Listings Against Copycats 18:41 - Product Research In Pregnancy And Baby Niches 23:00 - A Half-Million-Euro Product Launch 27:20 - Prime Day PPC And Deal Strategies 31:04 - Ranking, Rufus, And Modern Amazon Launches

Are you tired of the "grind" of finding your next real estate deal? In a market where traditional marketing costs are skyrocketing and algorithms are constantly changing, most investors are left fighting for scraps. But what if you could have motivated, off-market leads delivered straight to your inbox without ever picking up a paintbrush or knocking on a stranger's door? In this episode, we sit down with Or Sapir, the tech-maven turned real estate powerhouse from MotivatedSellers.com. Or reveals how his team generates a staggering 20,000+ leads per month through high-authority domains like SellHouseFast.com. Whether you are a solo wholesaler or a high-volume investor, this conversation is your "marketing prayer answered". We dive deep into the data-driven world of PPL (Pay Per Lead), exploring the "hot" markets like Maricopa County and Harris County, and why human connection is still the ultimate closer in a digital age. If you are ready to stop "recreating the wheel" and start scaling with a predictable, exclusive lead source, this episode is for you. Learn why the "middleman" approach is the fastest way to a 4x ROI and how to handle distressed sellers with the empathy they deserve. What You'll Learn in This Episode:The Evolution of Lead Gen: How Or Sapir bridged the gap between the tech world and real estate to create a massive inbound lead engine. The Power of PPL: Why buying exclusive, real-time leads is often more efficient than door knocking or managing your own PPC campaigns. Current "Hot" Markets: Detailed data on where the most leads are coming from right now, including Maricopa County, AZ, Harris County, TX, and Riverside, CA. The "KISS" Method: Why simplicity in your CRM and systems is the key to scaling without burnout. Risk-Free Investing: How to get started with no sign-up fees and a full dispute process for leads that don't meet quality standards. The Art of the Follow-Up: Why 80% of sales happen after the fifth contact and how to stay consistent when others quit. Turning Lemons into Lemonade: Creative strategies for leads that aren't a "cash buy" fit, from seller financing to realtor referrals. The Three Pillars of Scaling: A deep dive into Marketing, Organization/Systems, and Funding as the core requirements for growth. Empathy-Based Selling: Understanding the distress of the seller to build trust and close more deals. Real estate investing is a numbers game, but it's also a human business. As Or Sapir reminds us, the goal isn't just to flip a house; it's to help a community and solve a problem for a family in distress. If you have the capital and the consistency, there is no other industry that offers this kind of return.

Welcome to another insightful episode of Build a Better Agency! This week, host Drew McLellan sits down with executive business coach Trevor McGregor to tackle one of the most critical and persistent challenges agency owners face: scaling their business. Drawing from his expansive coaching experience and background working alongside leaders like Tony Robbins, Trevor McGregor unpacks the most common barriers that keep agencies from moving beyond their current stage and achieving true growth. Together, Drew McLellan and Trevor McGregor dig into the real reasons agency owners frequently find themselves stuck—covering everything from limiting beliefs and lack of vision to poor systems, time management struggles, and the all-important execution gap. Trevor McGregor draws on decades of coaching and shares his "five reasons agencies fail to scale," as well as actionable advice around improving your mindset, building better systems, and elevating your standards as a leader. You'll also hear practical strategies like conducting a personal time audit, leveraging the "four S's" (state, story, standards, and strategy), and working through resistance to delegation and process-building. The conversation also highlights the deeper "why" behind leading an agency—not just in terms of revenue or staff size, but the impact you have on clients, employees, and your own life. Drew McLellan and Trevor McGregor stress the importance of reconnecting with your passion and leveraging accountability—whether through peer groups or coaching—to move from ideas into tangible results. Real-life anecdotes, references to industry reinvention (including the impact of AI), and honest advice about sustaining momentum keep this discussion engaging and relevant. Don't miss this episode if you're committed to breaking through your current plateau and building not just a bigger, but a better, more impactful agency. By the end, you'll leave with a renewed sense of purpose and a roadmap for taking practical steps toward growth—plus a heartfelt reminder of why you chose this path in the first place.

Part 2 of this Prime Day series uncovers the AI, Rufus, retargeting, inventory, and deal strategies Amazon sellers may be overlooking before the big event. In part 2 of this two-part Prime Day strategy series, Shivali Patel and Carrie Miller bring together another lineup of Amazon, advertising, AI, logistics, and e-commerce experts to share what sellers should be doing before, during, and after major shopping events like Amazon Prime Day. This episode goes beyond basic discounting and looks at the bigger picture: retargeting high-intent shoppers, optimizing listings for both A9 and Rufus, improving product images, planning inventory, and using external traffic to create more sales opportunities. The conversation starts with PPC and listing optimization strategies with Vincenzo Toscano, including how to build Sponsored Display campaigns around shoppers who viewed your products but did not buy, analyze competitor reviews with Helium 10, and track share of voice to spot openings when competitors lose visibility. Andrew Bell also walks through Helium 10's AI Listing Optimizer, showing how sellers can use product images, buyer questions, keywords, and Rufus-focused prompts to create listings that are both searchable and conversion-friendly. This second installment also dives into overlooked growth channels outside of Amazon. Norm Farrar's strategy about how sellers should learn how Google Business Profile posts, offers, events, press releases, and deal communities can help drive traffic before, during, and after Prime Day. On the operations side, Burak Yolga explains why inventory check-in timing can make or break a sales event, and why sellers should think carefully about FBA placement, reimbursement audits, FBM backup listings, and omnichannel expansion. To close out this two-part series, more experts like, Anthony Cofranceso, Mansour Norouzi, Tomer Rabinovich, and Josh Hadley share more ways to make smarter decisions with data and AI, from Prime Day deal structures and post-event remarketing to variation research, customer reporting, hiring workflows, and Market Tracker 360. Whether you are preparing for Prime Day, launching new variations, improving your product detail page, or protecting profit margins, this episode shows how the right preparation can turn a short-term shopping event into long-term brand growth.

“Butts, not bots.” That's the philosophy behind this week's conversation with Ted DeBettencourt of Juvo Leads, a new sponsor of Lunch Hour Legal Marketing, and honestly, it sparked one of the most practical discussions we've had about intake in a long time. From AI chat frustrations and LSA response failures to empathetic intake conversations and signed retainers through text, this episode digs into what actually helps law firms convert more leads into cases. Ted joins Conrad and Gyi to break down why human-powered intake still outperforms automation in many legal marketing scenarios, how firms lose leads by forcing clients into the wrong communication channels, and why response speed alone isn't enough if the experience feels robotic. They also get into A/B testing intake vendors, reducing wasted PPC spend, qualifying leads properly, and the hidden dangers of certain lead-handling practices in the legal industry. If you've ever wondered whether AI intake is really “good enough” yet or whether your law firm is accidentally creating friction for potential clients, this episode is for you. Connect with Ted! You can find Ted on LinkedIn, and head over to juvoleads.com to take advantage of Ted's offer to get 50% more leads or your money back with a free 30-day trial.
