Small Value Outperformed for 40 Years | Santa Barbara News
Aug 21, 20262 min
Over the past 40 years, small value stocks have crushed it—turning $10K into $1.35M with a 13.2% average annual return—outpacing large value, large growth, and small growth. But markets shift: tech-led large growth dominated the 90s and early 2000s, then gave way to value and small caps after the dot-com crash, only for large growth to surge again from 2010–2021. Today, value and smaller companies are staging a comeback, yet investors still struggle to stay disciplined, often buying high and selling low during rotations. The takeaway? Patience wins—stick with low-cost index funds, avoid chasing trends, and forget actively managed funds that rarely beat the market.

Dignity Health’s 13th annual Day of Hope Car Shows returns this August with two family-friendly events in Santa Maria and Arroyo Grande, raising funds for local cancer care. Free to attend, car registration starts at $35 in Santa Maria and $75 in Arroyo Grande, featuring classic, custom, and unique vehicles. Kids can explore emergency vehicles in Santa Maria’s “Touch-a-Truck” zone, while Arroyo Grande hosts a “Paws for Hope” dog parade.

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.
