Every few months the tool bill creeps up and I end up paying for stuff I barely use. Curious what everyone else has cut this year. What's one tool or subscription you cancelled and honestly didn't miss? And what did you replace it with, if anything? Could save a few people here some money 👇

If you could go back to the very first week of building your agency or business, what's the one thing you'd tell yourself? Could be about clients, pricing, tools, mindset, anything. Curious to read what everyone's learned the hard way 👇

Over the last year I've been the "tech guy" behind the scenes for a few agencies, building the automations, CRM setups and AI stuff their clients see. The pattern I keep noticing: The owners who grow fastest don't build everything themselves. They stay on sales and client relationships, and hand off the technical delivery. The ones who get stuck are usually brilliant at selling... but spend their nights fixing workflows, debugging GHL, or rebuilding the same follow-up system for the fifth client. One owner told me the turning point was simple: "I stopped being the bottleneck on delivery and started closing again." So I'm curious, for the agency owners here: What's the one part of delivery you wish you could just hand off? - CRM / GHL setup - Automations & follow-up flows - AI chatbots / voice agents - Something else? Drop it below. I'll share how I'd structure it so it runs without you 🙌

Not the fancy stuff. The boring workflow that quietly pays for itself every month. Mine is a simple "missed call → instant text back" for service businesses. Nothing clever, but it saves more jobs than anything else I've built. Curious what's working for everyone else this year 👇 Drop your niche + the one automation you'd never remove. I'll go through the replies and connect people working in the same niche. Half the good deals I've seen came from two builders just talking.

An agency owner came to me frustrated. His client's GHL setup "wasn't working", leads were coming in, but almost nobody was booking. He was ready to rebuild the whole thing. When I looked under the hood, the problem was simple: New leads got one text... and then nothing. No follow-up, no reminder, no nudge. We added a basic follow-up sequence and a missed-call text-back. Same leads, same ads, same budget. The next week his client booked more calls than the whole month before. The lesson I keep relearning: most agencies don't have a lead problem. They have a follow-up problem hiding in their backend. So I'm curious, agency owners: When was the last time you actually checked what happens to a lead after they fill out the form? - This week - This month - Honestly... never 😅 If you're not sure, comment "AUDIT" and I'll tell you the 3 things I check first in every GHL account. Takes 10 minutes, no strings 🙌
