About William
William Conrad, born John William Cann Jr., on September 27, 1920, was an American actor, producer, and director whose career spanned five decades in radio, film, and television. He served as a fighter pilot during World War II before moving to Hollywood, where he initially worked as a radio writer and actor. Conrad played a variety of character roles in films, beginning with his appearance in the noir film The Killers in 1946. Notably, he originated the role of Marshal Matt Dillon in the radio series Gunsmoke, which aired from 1952 to 1961. In addition to his acting, he narrated several television programs including Rocky and Bullwinkle, Dudley Do-Right of the Mounties, The Fugitive, and Hoppity Hooper, from 1959 to 1967. As his on-screen opportunities diminished in the 1950s, Conrad transitioned into roles behind the camera, working as a producer and director in television, narration, and Warner Bros. films during the 1960s. He gained stardom through his portrayal of detectives in television series such as Cannon from 1971 to 1976 and Nero Wolfe in 1981. Later in his career, he played district attorney Jason Lochinvar J. L. Fatman McCabe in the legal drama Jake and the Fatman, which aired from 1987 to 1992. William Conrad's versatility and distinctive voice made him a prominent figure in American entertainment across multiple media.

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.
