Jordan breaks down three shifts reshaping AI operations for marketing and ad agencies — and the expensive mistake agency owners are making right now. Why paying a consultant to build your "company brain" is the wrong move (and what to do instead), the affiliate-model agency software wave that monetizes your token and ad spend, and the orchestration shift that turns agencies into McKinsey-style consulting firms where one strategist manages $2M+ in client revenue.

Key takeaways

Don't pay anyone to build your company brain in 2026. Host client context in organized GitHub folders and skills, stay portable, and migrate when a dominant brain product emerges.

If you're still manually running reports, writing briefs, and checking PM tools — start there. Efficiency first, then capacity.

The next software wave makes money on your token spend and ad spend, not the license. Understand the model before you commit your operations to it.

Loops are already running agency delivery. When production automates, you get hired for taste and strategy — so start building skills and agents now, then learn to orchestrate them.
