Agency Forward 055 Cam Martinez: The Operator Behind the Curtain
Hey everyone, today I’m joined by Cam Martinez.
Cam is a high-level operator, strategist, and the embedded leader agencies and teams call when they’re ready to get serious about execution. He’s stepped into roles like COO, President, and Chief of Staff across industries—from SaaS to wellness to agencies—and he’s built a reputation for helping founders align strategy, systems, and scale without losing control.
I brought Cam on because a lot of agency founders say they need "ops help"—but they don’t know what great actually looks like. Cam breaks down what separates true operators from task-takers, how to build trust quickly, and why clarity and autonomy matter more than micromanagement.
In this episode, we discuss:
- What separates an operator from a task-taker
- Why strategy isn’t just the visionary’s job
- What to give an operator so they can move fast
- and more...
You can connect with Cam on LinkedIn or follow him @KenshoCam on all platforms.

Hiring in the agency world is rough. Most job posting sites get you lots of applicants, but with their “easy applying” options, most of those are unqualified. And worse, they don’t understand what it’s like working at an agency.
This is why I created the Agency Job Hub. You can post your positions for free to find applicants looking specifically for agency work, and we already have a growing list of candidates who’ll be notified as soon as you post.
You can list your open positions for free at AgencyJobHub.com.
