If you’re a video agency owner doing $250k a year but still spending 70 hours a week in an edit suite, you don't have a business, you have a high-paid job. You are stuck in the "Technician Trap," trading your life for deliverables while clutching onto "creativity" as your profit margins bleed out.

In this episode, Den breaks down why the most "passionate" filmmakers are often the ones struggling to pay rent. We’re moving past the "AI is the enemy" noise and looking at the cold, hard business logic of scaling. 

If a heart surgeon mopped the floors of the operating room, the hospital would go bankrupt. So why are you still opening Premiere Pro?

Here’s what you’ll discover:

• The $250k Dead Zone: Why this specific revenue marker is where most agencies fail to scale.
• The Surgeon’s Logic: Reframing your value from "the guy with the camera" to the Architect of the result.
• The AI Tech Stack: A 3-phase framework to automate the "grunt work" and reclaim 30+ hours a week.
• The Math of Profitability: Why a 70% margin at $1,000/hr beats an 80% margin at $100/hr every single time.
• The Ego Tax: How your obsession with "authenticity" and "the tools" is actually a bottleneck for your team.

Stop being the janitor of your business. It’s time to take the CEO chair.
