In this brief monologue, the speaker emphasizes that running a marketing agency is fundamentally a leadership role. The leader must set the organization’s direction by identifying major industry and client trends and making strategic decisions. On the tactical side, the leader oversees regular Level 10 meetings—particularly a Wednesday sales and marketing session from 10 am to 1 pm—to keep operations on track. The leader also continues to produce public‑facing content such as webinars and podcasts, serving as the organization’s visible face while delegating execution to the broader leadership team, allowing them to take ownership and drive results.

Chapters

In the marketing agency, predominantly it's a leadership function within the company. It's like looking, where are we going as an organization? Like, what are the big trends that are going to impact our industry, our clients that we serve, at making those strategic decisions? But for the most part, tactically speaking, level 10 meetings on Wednesday, level 10 meeting with the sales and marketing department, that's kind of between 10:00 AM and 1:00 PM. And then other than that, making sure things are moving forward, still doing webinars, still doing podcasts, still still being the face of the organization to move things forward, but then letting the team, that leadership team, take the bull and run with it.
