About Mike
Michael Edward Love, born on March 15, 1941, is an American singer and songwriter known for co-founding the Beach Boys along with his cousins Brian, Dennis, and Carl Wilson, and their friend Al Jardine. Since 1961, he has served as a main vocalist and often the frontman for the band, contributing a distinctive nasally baritone voice. Love is credited with co-writing 15 of the group's Top 40 hits, including notable songs such as Fun, Fun, Fun, I Get Around, Help Me, Rhonda, California Girls, Good Vibrations, and Do It Again. His lyrics often drew inspiration from Chuck Berry and Felice and Boudleaux Bryant, reflecting themes of surfing, cars, and romance, which contributed to creating the popular image of the California Dream. In addition to songwriting, Love played a significant role in the band's vocal arrangements, especially the doo-wop elements of their sound. Starting in 1968, Love studied Transcendental Meditation under Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and became a TM teacher in 1971; this experience influenced his lyrical themes to include astrology, meditation, politics, and ecology. In the late 1970s, he led a band called Celebration and pursued solo projects, releasing his first solo album in 1981, titled Looking Back with Love. Love has also released three solo albums and scored additional charting hits including Getcha Back and Kokomo, which he co-wrote without Brian Wilson. Despite his contributions, Love has faced criticism and legal conflicts related to songwriting credits within the band. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a Beach Boys member in 1988 and engages actively in touring and charitable activities.

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.
