With hundreds of thousands of agencies on his platform, he's seen firsthand that the agencies standing out are the ones leading the AI conversation, not waiting for permission to start it.

Is AI Coming for Your Agency? It DependsThe elephant in every agency Slack channel: Will AI replace us?
Tim sees a spectrum. Some agencies think they're immune ("We only serve local dentists, so we're safe."), while others are already using AI to transform delivery, productizing what used to be manual labor into scalable SaaS products for other agencies. Most agencies are stuck in the middle - unsure where to begin and afraid to fall behind.
Basically, if your clients are tech-savvy DIYers, yes, you're at risk. But 99% of clients aren't like that. They want the results AI brings, but they don't want to build or manage it themselves.
Hence, those who adopt AI to streamline delivery and elevate their positioning—not those who ignore it or just dabble, will win.
