About Jerry
Jerry Alan West (May 28, 1938 – June 12, 2024) was an American basketball player and executive known for his significant contributions to the sport. He played professionally for the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association (NBA) and is regarded as one of the greatest players of all time. West's playing career included numerous accolades; he was voted into the All-NBA First and Second Teams 12 times, elected to the NBA All-Star Team 14 times, and was named All-Star MVP in 1972. He played predominantly as a guard and participated in nine NBA Finals, winning one NBA championship in 1972. West holds the NBA record for the highest points per game average in a playoff series with 46.3. He was recognized for his clutch performances, including a notable buzzer-beating shot in the 1970 NBA Finals, and earned the unique distinction of being named Finals MVP despite his team losing in 1969. His impact extends beyond his playing career; he served as head coach of the Lakers for three years and later became their general manager, leading the team to six NBA championships. West also managed other teams, including the Memphis Grizzlies, where he contributed to their first playoff appearances and was awarded NBA Executive of the Year twice. His later work with the Golden State Warriors as a consultant helped secure two additional titles. Inducted into the Hall of Fame as a player and later as a contributor, West's influence on professional basketball is widely recognized.

FAQs
Every question we get asked before
someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
