Unpopular opinion: most agencies are secretly losing money with the tools they use 💸

After looking at dozens of agencies, here’s the truth most vendors won’t tell you:

90% of agencies are losing money with their current setup.

Here’s why:

too many tools: the average agency pays for 7+ subscriptions with overlapping features
false productivity: teams feel busy, but client results aren’t improving
missed strategy: agencies focus on routine tasks and ignore high-value client work

Agencies that are actually growing clients with the same team do things differently:

• use 2-3 core tools max

• plan workflows before picking tools

• measure hours saved per client, not just automation

• spend saved time on high-value client strategy

The real opportunity isn’t just doing more tasks faster, it’s rethinking how your agency delivers value.
