In this episode of The Fractional CMO Show, Casey opens up a raw coaching call with people who aren't fractional CMOs yet—but want to be. These are agency owners tired of the hamster wheel, strategists stuck doing execution, and full-time employees wondering if this fractional thing is actually real.    Casey coaches through real deals happening this week: Eric transitioning from agency to targeting private equity exits, Roxy discovering clients keep telling her she's a "really strong strategist" but she's drowning in execution, Paul pitching a $30M company, and Ernesto trying to find IVF clinic owners who want marketing leadership instead of just need it. The conversation cuts through the noise—stop pitching, stop discounting, start having curious conversations that make fractional CMO services the obvious solution. Key Topics Covered: -The 3-5 client rule: Three is ideal—more clients means mixing up names like dating multiple people at once  -Financial structure: Client pays your fee directly (~$9,700 of $10K), then separately pays for the team you build  -Luxury pricing: They should say "that makes sense" not "can you discount?"  -Warm outreach: Share your shift, ask "who should I meet?" not "will you hire me?"  -The exit conversation: Surface if they're selling in 2 years—they won't tell their team but they'll tell you  -Never pitch, discover: Ask questions until fractional CMO is obvious, then "what questions do you have?"  -Agency owners can transition without shutting down—fractional work is separate  -Discounting kills relationships: Clients who negotiate once nickel-and-dime forever  -Find people who want to grow: Show them you're the bridge—they don't need to know fractional CMO exists yet

You can be part of the fun (which included a hint on the platform hours in advance that a move was coming) and future live broadcasts by supporting our independent production at patreon.com/padreshottubON THE SHOW: Craig Elsten and Chris Reed are joined by a jubilant and suddenly-gathered group of PHT patrons to discuss the announcement that staff ace Michael King is coming back to the club on a new free agent deal! The contract includes a 12M signing bonus, 5M salary for 2026, and player options at 28M and 30M for 2027 and 2028, with a 5M buyout if King opts out the first season. Needless to say, this sparks discussion about the (erroneous?) reporting that the Padres didn't have money to spend, the idea of a King-Pivetta-Musgrove top of the rotation, and the idea that AJ Preller may now have strategic flexibility to make a trade if he has to.

It's Wednesday, December 17th, and Norm Hitzges is already treating the Cowboys like it's January—because let's be honest, they've been playing for “next year” for a while now.Norm lays out the real offseason problem: this team can score like a contender (historically so), yet they're wandering toward mediocrity because the defense couldn't stop a parade—much less an NFL offense. And now comes the big-money question: do you spend $30M a year to keep George Pickens… or do you use that money (and maybe even the Trayvon Diggs cap savings) to build a defense that doesn't actively ruin your weekend?Then we pivot to college football, where head coaches are getting fired like it's a Black Friday sale—because one man (Kurt Cignetti) showed the entire sport what a fast turnaround looks like.

Alex walked me through how franchising really works, why it's far more accessible than people think, and how everyday entrepreneurs can build serious wealth through franchises, cash flow, and real estate. We talk about the hottest industries, the best opportunities, how to choose the right brand, and how the franchise + real-estate model can create multiple streams of income and even multi-million-dollar exits. This conversation opened my eyes to opportunities I didn't even know existed — and it might do the same for you.

In this episode of Entrepreneur DNA, I sat down with 33-year-old serial entrepreneur Alex Smereczniak, the founder of Franzy.com — what he calls the Zillow of franchising. Alex walked me through how franchising really works, why it's far more accessible than people think, and how everyday entrepreneurs can build serious wealth through franchises, cash flow, and real estate. We talk about the hottest industries, the best opportunities, how to choose the right brand, and how the franchise + real-estate model can create multiple streams of income and even multi-million-dollar exits. This conversation opened my eyes to opportunities I didn't even know existed — and it might do the same for you. About Alex Smereczniak Alex Smereczniak is a serial entrepreneur and the Co-Founder & CEO of Franzy, the platform known as the “Zillow for franchising.” Before building Franzy, Alex launched and scaled 2ULaundry and LaundroLab, raising over $30M in venture capital and expanding the brands across multiple markets.

If you own a business or hold significant private assets, passing wealth to the next generation isn't as simple as naming a beneficiary. Without proper planning, your heirs could face a 40%+ tax hit, especially when your estate exceeds the current $30M exemption threshold. We discuss:

In this conversation, Dwayne sits down with entrepreneur and creator Scott Clary, host of the Success Story Podcast with 30M+ downloads. Scott opens up about his unlikely path from a government-family upbringing to becoming a media-first entrepreneur, the early exposure that ignited his drive, and why curiosity and tenacity can outperform almost anything. Scott walks through how small companies create the best “entrepreneurial classrooms,” why every creator should think like a founder, and how success hinges on defining your personal North Star before you start sprinting. The episode dives deep into AI disruption, content strategy, internal vs. external locus of control, personal branding, and how businesses of every size can prepare for the next wave of transformation. Scott offers tactical clarity on building a media-first business, testing content efficiently, disrupting yourself before the market does, and why attention—sustained over time—is the most valuable commercial asset any entrepreneur can build. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS03:53 - Scott's telecom background 08:22 - How working at a small company provides exposure to all aspects of business 14:27 - The importance of curiosity as a foundational entrepreneurial skill 17:25 - Warning: Be careful what you pursue - success requires understanding your true goals 23:25 - Finding your North Star: Be rigid in goals but flexible in execution 28:10 - Identifying what energizes you through trial and error 32:33 - Building a business while working full-time: The side hustle strategy 38:15 - How AI is disrupting businesses and the need for constant self-disruption 43:15 - The four types of leverage: Capital, technology, people, and media 51:00 - The power of AI to make individuals 10-100x more productive 01:06:30 - Internal vs external locus of control and taking ownership 01:13:30 - Content creation strategy: Testing ideas at scale on forgiving platforms 01:27:26 - How media and AI are already transforming traditional industries like restaurants KEY TAKEAWAYS Define your North Star before you start running Many people pursue success without clarity on what they actually want — a lifestyle business, a scalable company, privacy, or fame. If you have tenacity and skill, you'll eventually succeed… so make sure you're climbing the right mountain. Curiosity is the foundation of career acceleration Scott attributes almost everything in his career to relentless curiosity — the willingness to ask questions, learn widely, and self-educate. AI won't replace people but people who use AI will replace people who don't The companies thriving in this era are disrupting themselves before someone else does. Every role can be up-leveled 10x–100x with the right tools and mindset. Media is the ultimate leverage Capital, technology, people… and media. If you don't build a personal or company brand, someone in your industry eventually will — and they will take market share. Content is business R&D Social content is the best testing ground for messaging.

Since buying the $6M Jay Blanton business at the end of 2022, Aizik has scaled it to ~$25M this year and a $30M run rate — and nearly half that growth is coming from sewers. They unpack the investments, the operational build-out, and the marketing + sales system that turned trenchless lining into a repeatable, high-volume profit center. Aizik shares the exact playbook behind his “Unclogs for Dogs” offer, why they send salespeople with cameras first (no junior drain tech flip), and how they price lining as the cheaper alternative to excavation to beat inertia and win the market.

Poni had a question for everyone to start today's show – where did the Mason Rudolph love come from? How much of the heavy lifting does the end of the 2023 season do? Chris said people love a comeback story going back to biblical days. Did he get a raw deal? People haven't seen him play bad football in Pittsburgh for a little while. Where does the love for Mason Rudolph come from? One caller, missing the point, wondered why the guys were ‘praising' Duck Hodges in 2019. Pirates/Penguins reporter Jason Mackey from the PG joined the show. Jason confirmed that the Pirates did offer Josh Naylor a contract, but doesn't think Naylor was close to leaving Seattle. Jason thinks they will spend some money this off-season, but players like Naylor and Kyle Schwarber are probably too rich. Jason questioned why a free agent worth $30M/year would come to Pittsburgh. Jason believes it's ‘very possible' that Konnor Griffin begins the 2026 season on the Pirates roster as their starting shortstop. Jason thinks the Pirates payroll will be right around $100M, but doubts it gets any higher than that. Jason thinks Eugenio Suarez could be the big move of the off-season, coming off a 49 HR season.

Pirates/Penguins reporter Jason Mackey from the PG joined the show. Jason confirmed that the Pirates did offer Josh Naylor a contract, but doesn't think Naylor was close to leaving Seattle. Jason thinks they will spend some money this off-season, but players like Naylor and Kyle Schwarber are probably too rich. Jason questioned why a free agent worth $30M/year would come to Pittsburgh. Jason believes it's ‘very possible' that Konnor Griffin begins the 2026 season on the Pirates roster as their starting shortstop. Jason thinks the Pirates payroll will be right around $100M, but doubts it gets any higher than that. Jason thinks Eugenio Suarez could be the big move of the off-season, coming off a 49 HR season.

BT & Sal dive into the shocking report from Jeff Passan that the Mets are "blowing up plenty" of their roster, potentially making Nimmo, McNeil, and Senga available for trade. The fiery discussion focuses heavily on Pete Alonso's future, as an industry source suggests the Mets' maximum offer is a "disrespectful" 2+1 deal at around $30 million per year. Sal argues that while Alonso deserves more than the recently signed Naylor, the Mets must resist paying $30M/year over six seasons. They debate whether Steve Cohen will override GM David Stearns to keep the fan favorite. The show also touches on potential additions like Alex Bregman and Kyle Tucker and starts with a quick rant about the Giants' lack of accountability after Abdul Carter's discipline issues and the team's ongoing "sloppiness."
