If you want to unlock the next stage of growth by building a predictable pipeline and winning higher-value clients — but without relying on complicated workflows or chasing large volumes of leads — it’s time for a more deliberate approach. Our partners at Copper CRM partnered with agency growth strategist Melissa Lohrer to create the Lead Nurture Playbook, a new guide that helps agencies make lead nurturing simple, natural, and repeatable — without disrupting what’s already working. It’s designed for agencies ready to scale beyond word-of-mouth growth sustainably by building meaningful, authentic connections with prospects. 👉https://lnkd.in/ez9U4u3q

What are the most valuable skills for account managers in the future? "Empathy, strategy and creativity" - Carl Smith, The Bureau Carl joined me on the Creative Agency Account Manager podcast to chat about the future of agencies and why owners are building businesses that are not just profitable — but more human. As owner of the Bureau and someone who talks to agency owners every day, Carl shares trends he's seeing. We cover: ** Why the agency business model of the future is smaller and leaner ** How AI is helping (and hindering) agency growth ** What are the biggest challenges faced by agency owners in 2025 ** Why the new generation of agencies don’t call themselves that ** How the account manager role is evolving into being much more strategic ....and lots more Big thanks to Carl for sharing his insights and perspective. This provides lots of food for thought about where to focus in the next couple of years. What do you think the account management skills are that'll be most needed in the future?

AI won’t kill agencies. In fact, it might just make them better. 🧠💡 As AI evolves, it’s natural to feel some fear about how it will impact the services agencies offer. But instead of fearing change, the real opportunity is in leading it. Just like spellcheck didn’t kill writing or Squarespace didn’t replace web design, AI won’t replace agencies—it will shift the way we work. Our real advantage? It's not in doing routine tasks—it’s in knowing when and how to use these tools to get the best results. Clients want more than just tech—they want expertise, strategy, and guidance. The key is to adapt. If most work becomes automated, let’s focus on being in that top 5% that adds the most value. That's where agencies can thrive. 🌟 Is your agency winning with AI? 👉 Check out our latest blog to see what the most successful teams are doing differently. https://lnkd.in/gFbtiymf
