Been working on a podcast for the last twelve months or so with designers and marketers.
Would love your feedback on this episode with designer Greg Merrilees on how he's build a small agency:

I tried listening to like the first few minutes... couldn't get through it. Going on and on about why you are talking to the person. What you relationship with that person was. I scrolled forward a little... still more of the same. No meat. In the first 30 sec I learned nothing. Closed it.
Sorry, just my honest 2 cents (or pence).

I looked at the links and then lost interest.
Really, every site in their portfolio is the same cheap template?

I have to agree with the above...sorry.
If I am going to take advice, or just listen, to someone I first want to see what their credentials are. First is the quality of the work, which here it is not really there, then I'll want to know what "success" is, or what makes them "successful". There are different measurements, from making millions in revenue (not here) or being recognized as a design leader (not here either).
I'd suggest finding some really talented agencies and interviewing them. There are so many great design firms out there, it shouldn't be a challenge to find them.

It is ironic that they have their process page, http://studio1design.com/our-pro… but the sites they show are neither unique nor memorable.
