On this 68th episode of the Scale You podcast, Le-an sat down with Nick Rickards, Founder of Recruitment Agent Hub, to talk about replacing bloated software stacks with specialized AI agents. Nick shared his transition from a decade in recruitment to building custom agentic workflows that handle candidate sourcing and database enrichment. He broke down why traditional CRMs fail modern agencies, how context windows waste system resources, and why agency owners must design micro-agent architectures instead of single-prompt bots. This conversation is for recruitment agency owners, operators, and tech-forward founders looking to strip away manual administrative tasks. Watch now to hear how dedicated AI agents can handle your candidate sourcing and CRM admin. ️ Connect with Nick here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ai-agents-for-recruitment/ https://www.recruitmentagenthub.com/ Let's connect: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/leanlailacaba Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leanlailacaba LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leanlailacaba TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@leanlailacaba Website: https://2xyou.com/

  Episode 67: How Did Drew Donaldson Rebuild His Business After AI Killed His Marketing Agency's Revenue by 60%

  Aug 10, 202656 minS6

  Drew Donaldson watched AI collapse his marketing agency, then used it to build 21 platforms in 18 months. On this 67th episode of the Scale You podcast, Le-an Lai Lacaba sat down with Drew Donaldson, Founder and CEO of Automata Intelligentsia, to talk about walking away from a marketing agency and rebuilding around AI and GTM engineering. Drew cut his agency's headcount by 60% through 2025 as AI made most of his old services obsolete, then handed the business to two team members with a 90-day deadline to make it self-sustaining. He officially launched Automata Intelligentsia in January and built 21 major platforms in 18 months, including Ascend, an AI-powered marketing team that got a beta client onto Google's front page in 30 days. This one is for any founder watching their industry get disrupted by AI and wondering if it's time to rebuild instead of holding on. Watch now to hear why Drew thinks fraud, not AI, is the real threat to trust in business.

  Episode 66: What Happens When You Add AI Before You Have Systems?

  Aug 3, 202618 min

  She's been building systems for years. Here's why she finally turned it into an AI agency. On this 66th episode of the Scale You podcast, Le-an Lai Lacaba, creator of BOSAI and co-founder of 2xYou, opens Season 6 by breaking down what an AI agency actually is and why she built BOSAI as a systems first agency instead of just another automation shop. She walks through how BOSAI started as a business operating system inside 2xYou, why so many business owners hire an assistant before they have any systems in place, and how that gap turns into wasted hires and AI tools nobody actually uses. Le-an also shares how she uses Claude and Codex differently in her own workflow, why she believes AI is replacing tasks and not people, and what's coming this season as she sits down with other AI agency owners. If you're thinking about starting an AI agency, adding AI into your business, or figuring out where automation actually fits, this episode gives you a real look at how one agency owner is building it from scratch. Listen now to hear the full story behind BOSAI and what's coming this season. Let Le-an and her AI-enabled team map out your systems and figure out exactly where AI fits into your business. https://webuildaisystems.com/ Let's connect: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/leanlailacaba Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leanlailacaba LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leanlailacaba TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@leanlailacaba Website: https://2xyou.com/
