Free Agency Vol. 13 📈 - People build teams before they have a stack. That's a mistake.

Free Agency Vol. 14 - Before you hire a team, you need to build a stack.

If you’re a talent agent operating in the State of California, you have some core responsibilities to your client, according to the law:

1. Duty of Care:

Act diligently and competently on behalf of the client.

2. Duty of Loyalty:

Prioritize the client's interests over personal earnings.

3. Duty of Confidentiality:

Protect the client's private information.

4. Duty of Notification:

Keep clients informed of all relevant career developments.

5. Duty of Obedience:

Follow the client's directives and priorities.

6. Duty of Accounting:

Properly manage client funds.

Ironically, these are all duties one could and should have to themselves and what they’re building.

If you are in the business of attention or desire, there are three overarching areas where a stack can help you: to focus, to compound, and to distribute. Each is critical in its own right, but when brought together, they create momentum you can utilize.

Stacks are sets of tools that can work in interconnected ways to develop a system for yourself. These days, they are everywhere.
