Hey everyone, today I'm joined by Tracey Burnett.

Tracey runs Leads to Success Global and hosts the Marketing Momentum for Agencies podcast. Before working with agencies, she spent years running lead generation and marketing for companies like Unilever and Barclays.

I wanted her on because agencies are often the worst at marketing themselves, even though it's exactly what they sell everyone else. After 80-plus interviews with agency owners on her own show, Tracey sees the same pattern every time: owners chase a tactic, more content, another podcast, outbound, before they've fixed what she calls their "unshakable business foundation," and their own marketing is always the first thing to get cut when client delivery gets busy.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Why agencies look for a marketing tactic before diagnosing the actual business problem
• The "unshakable business foundation" she builds before touching a single tactic
• Why an agency's own marketing always loses to client delivery, and how to stop that
• How to build a marketing rhythm a founder or team will actually keep doing
• And more...

You can learn more about Tracey Burnett on LinkedIn, or check out her podcast, Marketing Momentum for Agencies.
