Let’s be honest. People problems aren’t just HR problems. They’re business problems. They show up as missed goals, unclear accountability, hiring mistakes, disengaged teams, and leaders carrying more than they should. Over time, they slow growth, create frustration, and make running a business feel harder than it needs to be. And they aren’t solved by another policy, personality test, or quick fix. Business would be simple… if it weren’t for people. That’s the reality behind You’ve Got People Problems, a podcast focused on the human side of running a business. Each episode explores how leadership behavior, hiring decisions, role clarity, engagement, and organizational structure directly impact performance, culture, and results. Through honest conversations with business owners, operators, HR leaders, EOS Implementers, and consultants, the show tackles real issues leaders face every day: why the “right hire” still isn’t working, how teams outgrow roles, when full-time isn’t the answer, why accountability breaks down, and what actually drives engagement beyond perks and pay. This isn’t about HR checking a box or leadership theory. It’s about helping leaders slow down, recognize patterns earlier, and make more intentional people decisions that support both the business and the people inside it. If you’re leading a team, building an organization, or trying to get out of the day-to-day firefighting that comes with people problems, this podcast is for you. Subscribe, listen, and start making sense of the people side of your business.

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.

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.
