Some great moments: ✅ “If it"s nobody"s job, it becomes nobody"s job. Everybody’s supposed to pitch in, but it just doesn’t get done.”  ✅ “People want to see the people, the personalities behind the business. That’s what builds trust with your audience.”  ✅ “The quality of content jumps if one person owns it—they know the voice, the look, and how to keep it on track.” Want to grow your agency with confidence?
