In this episode, Mike Kepka sits down with Derrick Lorah —Flagship Visuals, Partner / Head of Client Experience & Director in Virginia Beach, Virginia— to unpack what it means for a production company to "think like an agency." With over 15 years of experience, Derrick shares how he and his team evolved from traditional video production to becoming strategic partners, focusing on client pain points and desired outcomes, not just deliverables. Discover how their approach, which includes understanding the nuances of various industries from tactical to lifestyle brands and working with clients like Real Truck and Operation Smile, helps them build lasting relationships and achieve measurable results. Derrick emphasizes that in today's landscape, "good work is par for the course," and the real win lies in solving the client's problems and reducing their friction.
