Your next client decides whether to trust you long before the sales call.

Mikala Page, Virtual CFO at Anders, says trust was the theme that kept coming up all week at SoDA Prague. Trustworthy content matters more than ever, both for keeping your clients and for building your name in the market.

Jamie Nau, Director of Virtual CFO Services at Anders, adds that thought leadership and trust go hand in hand. Whether you’re a web developer or a brand designer, clients need to believe you can see the vision, deliver on it, and be someone they want to keep working with.

What happens when 10 agencies put their real numbers on the table? Everyone learns faster.

Mikala Page, Virtual CFO at Anders, explains how she and Jamie Nau turned a standard financial presentation into a live, interactive session at SoDA Prague. Ten agency volunteers shared their revenue size, headcount, payroll cost, and utilization, and Jamie built a website to bring it all to the screen.

With real data in front of them, the group compared what a normal effective rate looks like and how capacity should be measured. Transparency turned a presentation into a conversation, and that’s where the real learning happened.

AI isn’t just writing your copy anymore. It can build the tools your whole team runs on.

Jamie Nau, Director of Virtual CFO Services at Anders, shares how he’s used AI to build websites and training tools. Whatever he can imagine, AI has an answer for it. He could build a time tracking tool in one day and have his whole team using it.

The bigger question is control. Every tool you build is a tool someone has to maintain. Agencies now have to decide which tools to buy at 70% of the way there and which to build at 100% and keep running themselves.

If your team is weighing what to buy and what to build with AI, watch the full episode with Jamie Nau. URL in comments.

Remember when new hires walked in straight out of college, full of ideas? Agencies are starting to miss that.

Mikala Page, Virtual CFO at Anders, tells Jamie Nau that agencies are leaning hard on senior talent right now. Many assume AI and outsourcing can cover the entry-level work, so roles like junior designers are showing up less and less.

The result is a quiet loss. Fresh graduates brought energy and creative ideas that experience alone can’t replace, and agency leaders at SoDA Prague are already feeling nostalgic for it.

Fully in office. Then hybrid. Then fully remote, years before COVID.

Adam Hale admits he came into this episode ready to fight with Christopher Burke HybridHero, because hybrid is one of the most frustrating topics in the world for him. His firm tried it for a year or two, and it was "very painful for us," with productivity challenges and segmented cultures. His conclusion still surprised him: "hybrid is very much necessary, just with work-life balance."

Your partners and your juniors can be in the same building and still never work together.

Christopher Burke HybridHero shares the story of a law firm whose partners all gathered in one area while the juniors sat as far away as possible. No interaction between the groups. "Well, how are you mentoring these guys?" Adam Hale sees the upside: once you can see that dynamic in the data, you can start moving people around and watch it shift.

One floor out of four. 25% off real estate costs overnight.

Adam Hale asks Christopher Burke HybridHero what an owner should actually look at in the data. Chris starts with the accounting question: can you drop the cost? A medium-sized U.S. insurer looked at its usage, said "we're not using this," and sublet one of its four floors. "So it's all a game looking at that data and how is this whole thing being used."

At a big bank or insurer, the person buying workplace software isn't spending their own money. At an accounting firm, they are.

Tom Wadelton asks Christopher Burke HybridHero what problem people bring to him most often. His answer is blunt: "people just don't know what they're spending." For accountants and lawyers, where the owners are really paying the bills, that turns into very direct questions. More space or less? Where are the savings? How are we actually using it?

Most firms walk into an office decision asking the wrong question.

Tom Wadelton says his biggest takeaway from this conversation with Christopher Burke HybridHero wasn't about square footage. It was about behavior: who sits together, what you want to happen when people come in, and being able to monitor it. He pictures the client who starts with one question and leaves with another: "I came in thinking, do I have the right kind of office space? And what it turned into was more, how do I really want my team to work?" Adam Hale made sure to note it only took Tom 45 minutes to get there.

When AI does all the other work, what makes a CPA relevant against a FinTech with venture capital behind it?

Jody Padar's answer is one word: humanness. "It is going to be our humanness," she says, and argues the profession has two to three years, not twenty, to get young professionals up to real advisory skills before routine work disappears entirely.
