241: The AI Shift That Will Change How You Run Your Company with Thanh Pham
Aug 13, 20261h 4m
Thanh Pham has spent 15 years studying productivity, and over the last five he's gone deep on implementing AI inside real companies. That means he's seen the difference between AI that actually changes how a business operates and AI that simply helps someone finish a task a little faster. That's the problem we dig into. If you're still using AI to shave a few minutes off work you were already doing yourself, you may be missing the bigger shift: changing who does the work in the first place. We talk about what Thanh hands to AI versus a person, how AI is changing the roles founders should be hiring for, and why companies that get this right could start moving dramatically faster than everyone else. We also get into what separates a million-dollar founder from entrepreneurs running much larger companies, why Thanh deliberately blocks several hours every week for something most founders never put on their calendar, and where human judgment still matters even as AI takes over more of the execution.

240: How to Build a Business That Runs Without You with Jeremy Shapiro
Aug 6, 20261h 11m
A lot of founders hit seven figures and assume they've built a business. But if sales slow down, decisions stall, or customers feel the difference whenever they step away, they may still be self-employed. Jeremy Shapiro has built companies across SaaS, ecommerce, technology, and services. He's seen the same pattern repeatedly: The hustle that creates momentum early on eventually becomes the thing holding the business back. We talk about why founders stay trapped in low-value work, how technology can quietly create more complexity, and why growth often stalls when you keep relying on the same channel, habits, or people. We also get into niche strategy, the hidden costs of building your own software, what separates a valuable mastermind from an expensive networking group, and why an SOP is useless if another person can't produce the same result.

239: How to Escape City Taxes and Real Estate Regulations with Julie Drenner
Jul 30, 202643 min
I bought a lake house in Austin and discovered I was paying city taxes even though the city wasn't providing water, sewer, trash collection, or electricity. Julie Drenner helped me legally remove the property from Austin's tax rolls. But that uncovered another problem: the city could still regulate what I build, how I remodel, and how I use the property through its extraterritorial jurisdiction, or ETJ. If you own, develop, or invest in real estate, these overlooked jurisdictional rules can quietly affect your taxes, construction timelines, rental income, and resale value. Julie explains where property owners may be losing control, why cities have little incentive to make these rules easy to understand, and what every investor should investigate before buying or developing their next property.

238: He Built an 8-Figure Software Company AI Still Can't Replace with Dean Guida
Jul 23, 202656 min
Dean Guida started Infragistics at 23 to build UX/UI tools for professional software developers. Thirty-seven years later, the company operates across six countries, its software is used by more than two million developers, and its customers span the entire S&P 500—including Fidelity, Morgan Stanley, Exxon, Intuit, and Bank of America. But AI can now generate functional software in minutes. So what prevents a company like Infragistics from becoming obsolete? I wanted to understand which parts of software AI will commoditize, where lasting competitive moats will still exist, and why Dean believes the idea that software is disappearing has been dramatically oversold. We also talk about how he built a multi-8-figure company without outside capital, why he might raise money if he started again today, and what founders need to build once grit alone is no longer enough to scale.

237: How to Build Category-Defining Brands in Any Industry with Jim Donnelly
Jul 16, 20261h 1m
Today I'm talking to Jim Donnelly, a founder who has built and scaled businesses across travel, real estate, wellness, and longevity medicine. He built an online travel community with 300,000+ members that later rolled into Travelocity. He developed luxury real estate that still holds Charlotte's record for price per square foot. He co-founded Restore Hyper Wellness and helped scale it to 225+ locations. Now, he's building Humanaut Health, a longevity medicine company with $10M-per-clinic potential. But the interesting part isn't just what Jim has built. It's how he keeps moving into completely different industries and finding the opportunity before everyone else sees it. A lot of founders fail when they jump categories because they assume the same playbook will work again. Jim sees it differently. He's clear about what transfers from one business to the next, what doesn't, and why the best opportunities are often hiding inside big categories that already exist. We get into how he builds brands people actually care about, why he'd rather have fewer customers who love him than more customers who only like him, and the biggest lessons he learned after raising $140M in private equity.

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.
