The playbooks live in your head
You haven't been able to systematize what you know. Your team follows your playbooks but those playbooks live in your head. When a client has a complex issue, they wait for YOUR input.
You're the CEO, head strategist, and biggest bottleneck. Your team waits for your input on every complex issue. You review every campaign before launch. You do every strategic call. You work 55-60 hours a week and haven't taken a real vacation in 2 years. These systems get your playbooks out of your head and into your team's hands.

You haven't been able to systematize what you know. Your team follows your playbooks but those playbooks live in your head. When a client has a complex issue, they wait for YOUR input.
You're the best PPC person in your agency by a wide margin. Your strategist handles routine work but anything non-standard lands on your desk. You do every strategic call.
Your phone blows up the moment you step away. Last time you tried to take a vacation, you spent 3 hours a day on calls. Your wife is threatening to have a conversation.
You want to grow to $1.2M but every new client adds to your personal workload. You need a senior strategist but can't hire one until you document what you know.

Each product builds on the previous one. Start where you are, progress at your own pace.
