Most agencies have someone who's figured out AI better than anyone else on the team. They built the custom GPTs. They know the prompts. They're the one everyone asks when something breaks. Now ask yourself: what happens if that person leaves tomorrow? "If your agency relies completely on one AI champion, the agency's progress is limited to one resignation." Ishant Kulshreshtha, AI Strategic Analyst at White Label IQ, joins host Erik Martinez on Episode 112 of the Digital Velocity Podcast to talk about what it actually takes to move AI knowledge out of one person's head and into the organization. Ishant shares a practical 30-day process any agency owner can start today, explains why the data your agency has been collecting for years is more valuable than any tool you could buy, and makes the case for why building AI capability is a team sport, not a solo act. If you've been relying on one person to drive your AI progress, this is the episode where you find out what you're actually risking.
