    In this episode, Troy Dean reads his new manifesto, Headless: The Future of Work, and explores one of the biggest shifts in business since the internet itself.

    For decades, we've built companies around a simple assumption: if you want more output, you hire more people.

    That assumption is breaking.

    AI agents, wearables, voice interfaces, and headless software are changing the way businesses operate. The question is no longer how many people work for you. The question is how much value each person can create.

    In this episode, Troy explores:

    • Why headcount is becoming a misleading measure of success
    • How AI is replacing execution while humans focus on strategy
    • Why the office may become obsolete
    • The collapse of the traditional agency growth model
    • How "headless businesses" will outperform their competitors
    • The future of work, leadership, productivity, and leverage
    • Why value per human will become the most important business metric of the next decade

    This isn't a conversation about prompts, tools, or hacks.

    It's a conversation about what happens when the interface leaves the desk.

    If you're a founder, operator, executive, consultant, or agency owner trying to understand where work is heading, this episode is for you.

  • $1M Year. No Staff. 10 hours a week (part two)
    May 12 2026

    What if you could run a 7-figure agency… without a team?

    In this episode, Troy pulls back the curtain on the headless agency model, a radically different way to deliver agency services using AI-powered systems instead of traditional staff.

    We’re not talking theory.
    We’re talking real clients, real deliverables, and a live system already in motion.

    From zero to 10 clients in just a few weeks, with a clear path to $1M in recurring revenue, Troy breaks down exactly how the model works, from onboarding and strategy to content production, project management, and client communication.

    You’ll learn:

    • The difference between AI “tools” and AI “systems” (and why it matters)
    • How to build a team of specialized AI agents that run your agency operations
    • The step-by-step client journey from onboarding to fully autonomous delivery
    • How to maintain quality and brand voice without producing “AI slop”
    • What your role becomes as the agency owner in this new model

    This isn’t about replacing humans.
    It’s about removing the bottlenecks that stop agencies from scaling.

    If you’ve ever felt stuck in delivery, overwhelmed by team management, or curious about what AI actually makes possible… this episode will change how you think about your agency.

  • $1M Year. No Staff. 10 hours a week (part one)
    May 8 2026

    A couple of weeks ago, I posted something that got a lot of attention:

    “$1M agency. No staff. 10 hours a week.”

    I didn’t expect it to blow up… but it did.

    Hundreds of comments, a flood of DMs, and one question kept coming up:

    “How is that actually possible?”

    So in this episode, I’m answering that properly.

    I’m walking you through the exact system I’m building right now, in real time, to run a digital agency with no team. Not a lean team. Not offshore support. Literally just me and AI.

    Right now, I’ve gone from zero to 10 clients in about four weeks, and I’m capping growth at one new client per week. The model gets to $1M a year at 28 clients, and I’m showing you exactly how the math works, how the delivery works, and what’s actually changing in the agency space.

  • From Freelancer to 15 Staff: The Real Story with Josh Moore.
    May 1 2026

    What actually changes when you commit to building a real agency?

    In this episode of The Agency Hour, Troy Dean sits down with Josh Moore from DuoPlus to unpack what growth really looks like behind the scenes, not the highlight reel, but the decisions, pressure, and trade-offs that come with it. Josh shares how he went from solo operator to a 15-person in-house team, why he doubled his overhead overnight (on purpose), and what it takes to keep moving forward when the numbers get uncomfortable.

    If you’re trying to grow your agency without burning out or wondering what the next level actually demands, this is worth your time.

    If you want the full step-by-step plan to implement this inside your agency, follow Agency Mavericks on Instagram and DM the word “TRUST.”

    Because the agencies that win next…
    won’t be the loudest.

  • Stop Chasing Clients: Build a Trust Engine That Attracts Premium Agency Work
    Apr 17 2026

    If your pipeline feels inconsistent right now, you’re not alone.

    Referrals aren’t as reliable as they used to be. Cold outreach feels like shouting into the void. And even when you do get a response, you’re stuck competing on price.

    Here’s the uncomfortable truth:

    The era of cheap outbound is over.

    In fact, recent insights suggest it can take thousands of cold emails to generate a single lead. And even then, prospects will Google you… and choose the agency that shows up with authority.

    So the question becomes:

    Are you building visibility… or are you invisible?

    If you want the full step-by-step plan to implement this inside your agency, follow Agency Mavericks on Instagram and DM the word “TRUST.”

    Because the agencies that win next…
    won’t be the loudest.

By the end, you’ll know how to implement UTM parameters to gain insights into your campaigns and improve your marketing strategies.

    What Are UTM Parameters and Why Do They Matter?

    UTM parameters, or Urchin Tracking Module parameters, are snippets of text that you can add to the end of a URL to track the performance of campaigns across different traffic sources. They help you understand where your visitors are coming from and how they interact with your content. This is essential for optimizing marketing efforts and ensuring your budget is spent effectively.

    Why Tracking Matters

    - UTM parameters are essential for tracking the effectiveness of your marketing campaigns.

    - Understanding the five key components helps you gain insights into your traffic sources and campaign performance.

    - Utilizing tools like utm-builder.net can simplify the process of creating UTM links.
