In this short promotional monologue, Eric Deeran addresses video and creative agency owners, arguing that simply hiring a salesperson will not drive growth. He explains that a salesperson needs a steady flow of qualified inbound leads to be effective; without an inbound lead‑generation system, the salesperson cannot close deals and will likely be fired. Deeran frames the lack of qualified opportunities as the core problem and positions an inbound system as the necessary solution. He concludes with a call‑to‑action, directing viewers to a follow‑up video that promises to show how to install such an inbound system for their agency.

If you're a video or creative agency owner, here's why hiring a salesperson won't solve your problems. A lot of video or creative agency owners think that if they just hire a salesperson, they're going to magically get more business and grow their agency when nothing could be further from the truth. The truth is, is you need qualified opportunities to give to that salesperson to actually make them successful. If you just plop a salesperson into your organization, but you don't give them any leads or give them any flow, or give them any deal flow, they're not going to close anything because they can't generate things out of thin air. What you need is you need an inbound system that's going to get leads that that salesperson can work. So if you're an agency owner and you've hired a salesperson before, and then you had to fire them because they weren't generating any deals, this is exactly why.
