Common questions
- Who is Tim Kilroy’s coaching for?
- It is for established small marketing, creative, PR, development and content agencies whose growth has outgrown referrals. Agency Studio serves founders under $50K a month, and custom work serves agencies between $1M and $20M a year. The common thread is an agency that does good work but lacks a repeatable way to win clients.
- What is the WTF Agency Method?
- The WTF Agency Method is Tim Kilroy’s approach: find out what is actually going on in your agency, decide what to fix and in what order, then turn that understanding into revenue. It favors systems over tactics and diagnosis before prescription. Its stated goals are more revenue, more profit and more happy.
- What AI tools does Tim Kilroy offer agencies?
- Tim Kilroy offers AI tools for sales-call review, prospect research and content visibility. Call Lab Instant coaches a recorded pitch with no account needed. Call Lab breaks down a pasted call transcript. Call Lab Pro scores calls against methods including SPIN, Challenger, MEDDIC and Sandler. Discovery Lab builds a prospect brief in about 60 seconds. Visibility Lab covers content visibility.
- How do I get started with Tim Kilroy?
- Go to the contact page on timkilroy.com and reach out. The usual first step is a free 30-minute WTF call where you describe what is happening in your agency, get help seeing the real problem and leave knowing what to fix first, whether you work together or not. From there Tim recommends the format that fits your stage.
- Do you coach PR agencies?
- Yes. Tim Kilroy lists PR agencies alongside marketing, creative, development and content agencies among the firms he works with. The shared trait is that the agency sits inside its clients’ marketing and sales layer, so positioning, discovery and pipeline problems look very similar across these agency types.
