You and Cody have only served landscaping and lawn care companies since 2019. Some people say AI makes generalist agencies viable again. Are they wrong, or is niching down now overrated? #2 - Is Google Ads worth it anymore? You called this "The Worst Year for Google Ads". Be honest: is Google quietly taking the money agencies used to make, and should agencies still be building their business on it? #3 - Why agencies undercharge: After your talk with Jasmine Sotiropoulos about undercharging for creative work, let me ask it plainly. Are most agency owners undercharging because of the market, or because they're scared to ask for more? #4 - Can the owner ever step away? You've argued that quality suffers when owners step away. So is the "passive agency owner" dream a myth people should stop chasing? #5 - The "AI slop" jab: Someone on Reddit called you guys "AI slop" (same iHeart listing), and you've just done an episode on agency brand voice. Did that hurt? If everyone uses the same AI tools, is a "brand voice" just marketing talk now? #6-Jake, if you could go back to the beginning of your career journey, what advice would you give yourself? ---------------------- Sponsors of The Show ------------------- Jetpack - https://f0k0.short.gy/97gIS8 Ninja Forms - https://f0k0.short.gy/97gIS8 WP-Rollover - https://f0k0.short.gy/97gIS8 LifterLMS - https://f0k0.short.gy/97gIS8 ---------------- ------------------ ------------------ ------------------ Jonathan Denwood & Kurt von Ahnen Jonathan Denwood https://www.wp-tonic.com https://manananomas.com ---------------- ------------------ ------------------ ------------------ ▬▬ LEARN FROM US ▬▬ ► Our course is" Are You Looking To Build Your Membership Website Quickly And EASILY On WordPress?" https://www.wp-tonic.com/course/ ▬▬ LET'S CONNECT ▬▬ ► Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/wptonic ► Podcast "The Membership Machine Show." | "The WP-Tonic Show" | "The David Quald SEO Show" https://f0k0.short.gy/9AO3tG https://f0k0.short.gy/oF9q9f https://f0k0.short.gy/mLDLvv
