The Lead Magnet That Pays for Itself w/ Chris DuBois

Is your agency leaving nearly 2/3rds of your new client acquisition up to chance? If so, you’re not alone. But it doesn’t have to be that way. According to research from WordStream, 60% of most new agency clients are coming from a channel that you can’t directly control, let alone scale. That scary stat is exactly what today’s guest is helping agencies avoid by building a portfolio of offers you can use to drive more inbound leads and create a re-usable marketing asset that pays for itself.

8 features to roll out the EU Working Time Directive seamlessly

Behind every successful and profitable company is a clear understanding of how and where their time is being spent. It’s safe to say time is the heartbeat of what you do, and what we do at Teamwork.com. In 2019, the European Union (EU) introduced a directive requiring all employers within EU member states to implement time tracking systems for their employees. While full implementation of the directive is up to individual member states, we can definitely get on board with mandated time tracking!

The EU Working Time Directive: Everything you need to know

In today’s fast-paced world, achieving a healthy work-life balance is more important than ever. When work consistently encroaches on personal time, it can take its toll on employees’ physical and mental health–not to mention its impact on business performance.

5 Steps to Better CHANGE MANAGEMENT for Agencies w/ Rob Sayles

Do you feel like something’s not working in your agency? You’ve got processes that are outdated (or just plain not documented). You’ve got tools that aren’t the right fit or you’re not getting enough out of. Even though you feel the need for change, it terrifies you. If so, you’re not alone, I was at an agency-focused conference in Denver just a few weeks back, and several agency owners I spoke with said that they knew they needed to make a change with a major software platform that helps run their agency, but they were scared to make the switch.

Change management in IT: What is it and how does it work?

As Greek philosopher Heraclitus once said, "Everything changes and nothing remains still, and you cannot step twice into the same stream." Ironically, change is the only constant — not only in life in general, but also in IT processes. IT teams may need to upgrade their hardware, migrate from on-premise services to the cloud, implement a new security patch, or deal with server breakdowns. How do you handle these changes to ensure minimal to no disruptions to service quality?

The engineer's guide to project management software

As an engineer, you’ve had to master the art of thinking big — and solving small. Engineers have to understand the big picture and see where the ship needs to go. But they also need to build the microscopic parts and pieces of that ship — sometimes while it’s already on the water! It isn’t easy to think big and solve small, but project management software can help you keep both sides of the engineering coin in sharp focus.

Stop Selling Implementation Services (& Do This Instead) w/ Max Traylor

Agency clients I talk to often want more strategic consulting from the agencies they hire. At the same time, many agencies feel like the services they’re delivering are often undervalued by the clients they serve. If both of these are true, then why are so many agencies caught in what Pete Caputa calls the “Tactician’s Trap” where it feels like you’re on an endless hamster wheel selling implementation services without being valued for the strategic insights you can provide to your clients.
