Hey everyone, today I’m joined by Logan Lyles.

Logan is the former VP of Sales & Customer Experience at Sweetfish, and now handles evangelism and content at Teamwork.com.

Logan has interviewed hundreds of agency owners and experts as the host of the podcast, Agency Life, and has countless insights from those conversations.
