Internxt Drive, Mail, Send, Meet, Cleaner, Antivirus, VPN, and more.Fran Villalba Segarra (Spain, 1997) is the Founder and CEO of Internxt.

Fran is part of the Forbes 30 Under 30 2024 list and is one of the most well-known, reputable tech entrepreneurs in the space.In this episode Fran discussed the company's mission to create a privacy-respecting digital world, offering alternatives to major tech companies. Internxt provides cloud storage, VPN, and antivirus services with zero-knowledge client-side encryption, meaning they cannot access or sell user data. Segarra shared that his personal experience with a data breach at a previous company inspired him to build Internext to address the widespread issue of data insecurity and privacy violations by large tech entities. He highlighted that Internext recently became the first cloud company to offer post-quantum encryption, enhancing security and aligning with a "trustless" philosophy where users retain ultimate control over their data.Segarra also detailed Internxt's crypto strategy, which includes building a Bitcoin reserve through crypto payments and mining. He explained that Internext accepts nearly all cryptocurrencies via a partnership with Coingate, converting all crypto payments into Bitcoin for their reserve. Segarra emphasized the advantages of being an EU-based technology company due to the strong privacy protections offered by GDPR, which he believes surpasses those in other regions like the US or even Switzerland.Looking ahead, Segarra outlined Internxt's product expansion plans, including individual, business, and family subscriptions, with lifetime plans offering bundled services like VPN, antivirus, and upcoming features such as Internxt Meet, Internxt Mail, and a device cleaner, aiming to provide a comprehensive Google suite alternative.

Luxury, Innovation, and Popcorn? Yes, Please. On this Trending Tuesday episode of The Debbie Nigro Show, I'm spilling the popcorn on a jaw-dropping new addition to one of my longtime favorite iconic hotels, the Hyatt Regency in Greenwich, Connecticut. Shawn Nayyar, the hotel's new General Manager, joined me in studio to talk about the Townsend Cinema, a first-of-its-kind 40-seat luxury movie theater built right inside the hotel—a concept developed by Monoplex and Trinity Investments, now brought to life at the Hyatt Regency Greenwich. "We're the first in the country to have this kind of cinema experience inside a hotel—and the response has been incredible." – Shawn Nayyar You can sip cocktails, eat gourmet truffle popcorn, and watch first-run movies like Superman and Fantastic Four—in heated recliners! (I'm a heated seat girl. I'm all in!” LOL) Why It's a Big Deal: First-run movies play the same day as nationwide theaters. Heated leather recliners, Dolby surround sound & a full menu. Drinks & gourmet snacks from the newly renovated café and bar. Revitalizes underused hotel space Draws both locals & travelers It's already increasing traffic and revenue across hotel services Fun Fact: The luxury theater was once just a rarely used auditorium. “This idea is going to revolutionize unused hotel space across the country—and maybe the world.” – Debbie Nigro  Peek Behind the Scenes: Shawn Nayyar has managed 15+ hotels and relocated from Dallas, Texas, to lead the $40M transformation of the Greenwich Hyatt. The property still retains nods to its Condé Nast publishing days, with engraved pillars featuring iconic magazine titles. Before becoming a hotel, the property housed Conde Nast's printing presses, which produced magazines like Vogue, Vanity Fair, and House and Garden The atrium is filled with live plants, giving a “feel like you're outside, even in winter” vibe.

I have discussed Colbert, and I assure you that we are only at the beginning of this saga.That's how Leftism works. If he were a conservative, it would be over. Lose $40M a year, and that's that. We all understand the economics of it. If the show doesn't work, it doesn't work.But Leftism needs more than a financial reason to die. It can't be the message, right?!No, CBS letting Colbert go is a “right-wing” conspiracy. And what about the excuse that Trump did it, because he was awarded $16M in his lawsuit against CBS.Most Leftists don't know how much money Colbert makes. From what I read, they pay that clown $15M a year. I repeat, the show loses $40M annually.Consider how bad things are for Colbert today. After Trump negotiates the mega deal with the EU?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Mike Florio from Pro Football Talk joined the show. Poni threw the red meat topic to Mike that someone in the Rooney family went on a podcast and said it would be ‘insane' to sign TJ Watt to an extension. Mike wondered if the rubber was really going to meet the road with Watt and the Steelers. Mike still thinks Watt will take what the Steelers best offer is and it could be $36M/year instead of $40M/year. What would the guarantees look like? Mike said players care most about APY above all else instead of the structure of the full deal. If a trade were to take place, what does Mike think that could look like? Mike thinks, at minimum, the deal would require a 1st round pick back to the Steelers. Mike wondered how things would look if Watt was a lifetime Brown and Myles Garrett was a lifetime Steeler. Mike indicated that he would rank Ben Roethlisberger #1 on a list of best Steelers since 2000.

Another edge rusher debate to get us going. According to ESPN, the GMs, coaches, scouts, etc. around the league have rated Myles Garrett over TJ Watt. We can say Watt has had a better career than Garrett to this point, but who is going to have the better end to their career? GIVEAWAY. Mike Florio from Pro Football Talk joined the show.

SummaryThis is part two of a two-part series where Christian Hassold and Ayelet Shipley demystify the complexities of agency valuations, exploring the interplay between buyer and seller motivations, and discussing real-world scenarios that illustrate various deal structures. They emphasize the importance of understanding the unique dynamics of the agency market, including the factors that influence valuations and the creative structuring of deals to meet the needs of both parties. Discussion HighlightsReviews a $3.4M revenue, $1.7M EBITDA agency valued at $10.2M (6x multiple). Creativity is needed for deals under $2M EBITDA due to higher perceived risk and sensitivity of margins.This deal involved a 50% cash consideration ($5.1M) and 50% rollover ($5.1M). The cash consideration was paid quarterly over three years, performance-based (not an earnout), with payments halted or reduced if revenue drops significantly (below 50% or 50-99% of the agreed-upon value).We also discussed a second deal involving a $40M revenue agency with $9M EBITDA commanding a 10x multiple ($90M EV) - a top of market multiple because of high gross retention (>85%) and >80% retainer-based clients. The challenge is managing the risk of large clients churning post-closing when the multiple is top of the market.Involved a 15% rollover. A significant earnout (up to an extra $9M) is offered to bridge the gap and incentivize the seller for growth.Beyond financial metrics, we discuss factors that influence valuations like the acquiring entity's need for specific capabilities, clients, talent, customer retention, and consistent growth (10-20% year-over-year).Chapters0:00 Introduction 2:06 Scenario D: Structuring a Deal Below $2M EBITDA3:10 Why Sub-$2M EBITDA Deals Are Hard4:53 Performance-Based Cash Payouts 6:18 Keeping Sellers Engaged Through Uncertainty7:52 Incentivizing Sellers Through Equity and Bonuses11:21 Scenario C: Challenges of Scaling a Large Agency12:57 Structuring a $40M, $9M EBITDA Deal at 10x15:28 Market View on Earnouts in EV19:25 When Growth and Retention Justify High Multiples20:50 Market Range for Cash-at-Close Offers21:20 How Strategic Buyers Compete with HoldCos22:53 Wrap-Up & Closing ThoughtsConnect with Christian & In/organic PodcastChristian's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hassold/In/organic on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/inorganic-podcastIn/organic on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@InorganicPodcast/featuredConnect with E27 guest, Ayelet Shipley on LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ayelet-shipley-b16330149/ Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of Owned and Operated, John and Jack unpack what leadership looks like inside a $20–40 million home service business—and why that size still feels small. They explore how companies in this range often remain personality-driven, even with impressive revenue, and what it really takes to level up. From forming HR and marketing departments to structuring a true senior leadership team, they dig into the growing pains and leadership gaps most businesses face on the way to maturity.The conversation dives deep into leadership development, internal promotions, and when to hire key external roles like controllers.

If you're scaling past $10 million and thinking about what's next, this episode lays out a real-world playbook for building a well-rounded, leadership-driven operation.

We sat down with today's featured guest to dig into what's powered his insane growth from barely crossing seven figures back when we first met… to now staring down $35–$40 million in pure service revenue. He's sharing some great advice on the evolution of his role as CEO, his new-found love for podcasting, and all kinds of golden nuggets for agency currently in the “no man's land”. Chris Dreyer is the CEO of Rankings.io, a law firm marketing services agency that delivers exceptional results for attorneys without compromising on customer service. He'll discuss his agency's substantial growth from under a million to over $30 million in revenue, his reliance on data and key performance indicators (KPIs), the transformative role of AI in various aspects of his operations, the importance of in-person client meetings for building relationships, and much more. If you're still guessing your numbers or putting off tracking your team's time — you'll want to pay attention. In this episode, we'll discuss: The CEO's true job. Hidden agency growing pains. The key to client happiness. In-person hustle and outbound sales.

Why Data Became Like a Religion Back when Chris and I first locked ourselves in a tiny Atlanta room for a workshop, Rankings.io was barely peeking over the $1M mark. He was still deciding who to serve and how. Fast forward about 8-9 years to today, and he says there's no bigger reason for his success than his top-to-bottom data obsession. Most agency owners track just enough to feel busy: a few pipeline numbers, maybe close rates if they're fancy. But Chris tracks everything. He knows the lifetime value of a client paying $5K a month versus $10K a month. He knows exactly how each account manager's retention rate impacts revenue. He even scores sales reps like a fantasy football league. And it's not just vanity metrics. If an account manager is great at keeping clients but terrible at preserving the original retainer size, they fix it. If time tracking shows poor utilization? They fix it. It's relentless. The big unlock for him was getting a real CFO to build this machine — and shifting from QuickBooks to more robust systems like Sage. No more flying blind or hoping for the best. If you don't know your LTV, churn, win rates, and retention by the exact dollar, you're leaving growth up to luck. How AI Became His Secret Weapon (and Why You Should Care) Most agency owners dabble in AI: a blog here, a few prompts there. Chris has gone full cyborg. Every single month, his team uploads their entire reporting package into ChatGPT. They don't just glance at dashboards — they get an AI board of advisors that points out trends, flags issues, and even suggests campaigns based on sales funnel leaks. If they have clients applying but not booking, the AI says: launch a re-engagement sequence. If they're not sure why the expense spike looks off, the AI will cross-check it with your event calendar. Chris used to hate looking at financials — now AI does the heavy lifting. When it comes to AI agents, they're not doing as much and prefer to use AI assistants for content, link building, and optimization. He even has an AI board of advisers with different personalities. This isn't replacing people. It's leveling them up. It's like strapping a rocket to every role — so you can do more without burning out your team. If you're not leaning on AI for context and next steps, you're probably making slower (and worse) decisions than your competitors. The CEO's True Job: Gotta Catch ‘em All Now that he's running an agency pushing $40M in service revenue (not pass-through, real revenue) Chris defines his role as: “Playing people Pokemon. Gotta catch ‘em all. I get the clients, and my president keeps them.” He sets the vision, runs point on marketing and sales, hosts the podcast, and stays the face of Rankings.io. Meanwhile, his right-hand man, Stephen, owns retention and delivery. This split lets Chris hunt big opportunities without getting bogged down in fulfillment fires. It's the perfect example of how an owner's role must evolve. If you're still stuck in the weeds, wearing every hat, and calling that “leadership” — you're capping your agency's growth. The goal isn't to do everything. It's to build a team that does everything better than you ever could alone. And Chris's story is living proof. The Hidden Growing Pains Nobody Warns You About Ever heard of the dreaded “no man's land” for agencies? For Chris, it began after he crossed the $8M to $10M mark and things got painfully awkward fast. In this stage, you're forced to hire the roles that don't directly bring in revenue: HR, finance, middle managers. Suddenly, your once-scrappy margins start leaking everywhere. It feels counterintuitive, all these new salaries, and yet no extra billables. But here's the catch: this is the awkward but necessary step that'll set you up with the infrastructure to move from $10M to $15M, $20M or beyond. This is generally the zone where you feel like an imposter CEO — one foot in the hustle, one foot in the corporate world you swore you'd never build. The truth is, every growing agency owner faces this inflection point. And if you get it right, you build a structure that can handle scale. If you get it wrong, you risk staying stuck at the same revenue ceiling year after year. You Can't Turn It Off — And Maybe That's Okay Most founders agree they find it difficult to turn their business brain off, and honestly, they don't want to. Business is the hobby. While their kids are at soccer practice, their brain is rewriting the service agreement or tweaking a proposal. Sure, there's a cost. Vacations come with podcast episodes in the car. Weekends sometimes mean scanning P&L spreadsheets. But, as Jason and Chris admit: the key to staying sane isn't to “balance it perfectly” — it's to have the right partner who gets the obsession. Because when you're building a business that supports dozens, even hundreds of families, switching it off just isn't realistic. So you find the support system that lets you go all in and come home for dinner. Why Core Values Actually Matter Early on, you might roll your eyes at “company core values.” Chris admits he did and saw it as just a lot of fluff. But once you're managing 50, 100, or more people, vague values don't cut it — you need a shared language to protect the culture. His agency now runs on three non-negotiables: Excellence (do great work, always) Execution (don't just talk, get it done) Grit (stick with hard things for the long haul) While he used to rely on platitudes like “team player” — he sees now that the wrong person will be weeded out fast as long as the core values are clear. He also bails at the mention of “work-life balance” in an interview. Because for this team, the culture is built for people who like working hard. The Surprising Key to Client Happiness Think your killer case studies will keep clients happy forever? Think again. Client happiness is very subjective and your biggest churn risk isn't bad work — it's bad relationships. Sure, you can track Net Promoter Scores all day. But real retention comes from catching early warning signs, which Chris calls “saves”. A client going quiet, missing calls, or hinting they're not vibing with an account manager should be signs to take action, if you start tracking them, as he has. And here's the overlooked move more agencies need to revive: visit your clients in person. Everyone's got Zoom fatigue. Booking a flight and breaking bread goes a long way toward making you not just a vendor, but a trusted partner. How In-Person Hustle and Outbound Hunting Keep You on Top Even with all the fancy dashboards, AI copilots, and mega forecasting tools, Chris and his president still jump on planes to shake hands with clients. They even budget for it. When you're running a high-ticket service where each client can be worth $125,000 or more over their lifetime, dropping a couple grand to show up in person is a no-brainer. It's how you show you care more than the next guy who's sending templated emails and hiding behind Slack. Chris's take is simple: Want to stand out? Do what you say you're going to do. Show up. Make your clients look like heroes. When a big-name CEO flies out to see you — even if you didn't sell them the deal — you remember that. Big relationships should get the handshake treatment. Using AI for Confidence in an Agency Acquisition Chris didn't buy another agency until he was already pushing $30 million, while most owners pull that trigger way earlier to leapfrog plateaus. Why wait? According to Chris, he didn't have the confidence to do it. Until AI changed that. He used ChatGPT to run diligence questions, draft the LOI, check for financial holes, and sanity-check the entire earnout structure. Sure, he has a great CFO — but that AI second brain made the whole thing faster and way less intimidating. Now that he's got the first deal under his belt, he's hungry for more. That's how scale works: get clarity, take the shot, rinse and repeat. Pro tip: If you're scared to buy, partner, or hire, dump your numbers into AI. Ask it what it would worry about if it were buying you. It'll show you every skeleton in the closet — so you can fix them now. Why Outbound Sales is Your Insurance Policy Chris used to be very resistant to doing outbound but now it is saving him from the Google rollercoaster. Inbound is sexy when it works. But we all know it can be feast or famine. Algorithms change. Referrals dry up. And you're stuck hoping this month's pipeline looks like last month's. After getting tired of hoping, Chris built an outbound team that's now about 30 people deep. He's got BDRs making 50 high-quality calls a day, sending out handwritten notes with books, running multi-channel outreach, and gifting prospects to cut through the noise. Each practice area has its own sales enablement rep feeding lists, building sequences, and arming the closers with context. It's consistent and it means Rankings.io can hunt, not just fish. Big lesson: if you don't control at least three lead sources (inbound, outbound, and strategic partners), your agency's growth is on borrowed time. Don't put all your eggs in Google's basket. Outbound is insurance. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset? Looking to dig deeper into your agency's potential? Check out our Agency Blueprint.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Jim from the Oh So So Podcast as we discuss the latest developments in the summer transfer window including Arsenal adding Eberechi Eze to their list of left wing targets along with Manchester CityThe Crystal Palace ace would be a cheaper option than Real Madrid star Rodrygo, who is also on Arsenal's radar. Eze became a target for Tottenham after they briefly looked at a deal for Brentford ace Bryan Mbeumo, who now appears destined for Manchester United. Spurs have also agreed a deal to sign Oliver Boast from Leeds, with a seven-figure sum agreed for the 16-year-old. He is behind Harry Gray in the pecking order, with Gray regarded as one of the best young strikers of his generation in the country. Spurs, of course, signed Harry's brother Archie in a £40M ($55m) last summer.

Serving SMB mid-market customers is one thing, but when you go upstream to enterprise sales, everything changes: go-to-market strategy, the sales process, how you structure deals, even how you define customer value. Today's guest, Andrew Casey, has helped scale four SaaS companies: ServiceNow, WalkMe, Lacework, and his current company, Amplitude. At ServiceNow, he worked closely with Snowflake's Mike Scarpelli and Coatue's David Schneider, and he was instrumental in establishing the company's deal desk to support its sales motion. As an operationally focused CFO, he shares a wealth of knowledge on the importance of staying close to the customer, structuring deals that work for both sides, establishing transparency in usage-based pricing, aligning incentives and strategy in sales, the pros and cons of multi-year deals, the problem with auto-renewals and what to do instead, and how to adapt your go-to-market strategy when moving from SMB mid-market to enterprise.—LINKS:Andrew Casey on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-casey-6b14875/Amplitude: https://amplitude.comServiceNow: https://www.servicenow.comCJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: http://mostlymetrics.comRELATED EPISODES:Gaining Strategic Advantage in Vertical SaaS With Guidewire's CFO, Jeff Cooper"Steal Your Boss's Job”: Calendly CFO John McCauley on Leadership, Ownership & GrowthThe Largest Software IPO Ever: How Snowflake Still Left Money on the Table —TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) Preview and Intro(02:40) Sponsor – Tropic | NetSuite | Planful | Tabs(08:45) Becoming an Operationally Focused CFO(11:50) Staying Close to the Customer as a CFO(16:37) Sponsor – Rippling Spend | Pulley | MUFG(20:34) Running Towards a Challenging Market at ServiceNow(24:15) How He Established the Deal Desk at ServiceNow(26:13) Structuring a Deal That Works for Both Sides(29:08) Transparency in Usage-Based Pricing(32:39) A Client's “Budget Problem”: Cash or Expense Issue(36:42) Lessons From Building Out the Deal Desk at ServiceNow(40:53) Pros and Cons of Multi-Year Deals(43:57) Auto-Renewals: Do This Instead(46:10) Adapting the Go-to-Market Strategy for Enterprise Sales(55:33) Selling to CIOs Whose Jobs Are at Stake(58:18) What Defines “Enterprise”(59:43) The Most Important Thing To Get Right in Enterprise Sales(1:01:01) Lessons From Andrew's Background in Corporate Finance(1:03:12) The Story of How Andrew Got His Job at ServiceNow(1:07:57) Long-Ass Lightning Round: A Big Mistake(1:10:31) Advice to Younger Self(1:11:17) Finance Software Stack(1:14:47) Craziest Expense Story—SPONSORS:Tropic is an intelligent spend management solution that consolidates your spend data and processes into one unified offering, enabling insights and decisive action.

Featured Guests: Shahin Farshchi, partner, Lux Capital | Connor Love, partner, Lightspeed Venture PartnersThe Trump administration has banned Harvard University from enrolling foreign students, seriously threatening the admission status of 6,800 Harvard students, OpenAI is building a mega AI hub in Abu Dhabi, its first “Stargate” outside the U.S., and the European Union just made its first ever bet on defense startups with a €40M fund.DOWNLOAD PUBLIC: Public.com/ventureInvest in everything—stocks, options, bonds, crypto. You can even earn some of the highest yields in the industry—like the 7% or higher yield you can lock in with a Bond Account. Public is a FINRA-registered, SIPC-insured platform that takes your investments as seriously as you do. Fund your account in five minutes or less at public.com/venture and get up to $10,000 when you transfer your old portfolio.All investing involves the risk of loss, including loss of principal. Brokerage services for US-listed, registered securities, options and bonds in a self-directed account are offered by Public Investing, Inc., member FINRA & SIPC. Public Investing offers a High-Yield Cash Account where funds from this account are automatically deposited into partner banks where they earn interest and are eligible for FDIC insurance; Public Investing is not a bank. Cryptocurrency trading services are offered by Bakkt Crypto Solutions, LLC (NMLS ID 1890144), which is licensed to engage in virtual currency business activity by the NYSDFS. Cryptocurrency is highly speculative, involves a high degree of risk, and has the potential for loss of the entire amount of an investment. Cryptocurrency holdings are not protected by the FDIC or SIPC.A Bond Account is a self-directed brokerage account with Public Investing, member FINRA/SIPC. Deposits into this account are used to purchase 10 investment-grade and high-yield bonds. The 7%+ yield is the average, annualized yield to worst (YTW) across all ten bonds in the Bond Account, before fees, as of 5/15/2025. A bond's yield is a function of its market price, which can fluctuate; therefore, a bond's YTW is not “locked in” until the bond is purchased, and your yield at time of purchase may be different from the yield shown here. The “locked in” YTW is not guaranteed; you may receive less than the YTW of the bonds in the Bond Account if you sell any of the bonds before maturity or if the issuer defaults on the bond. Public Investing charges a markup on each bond trade. See our Fee Schedule.*Terms and Conditions apply.

To explain why portfolio operations are increasingly the secret weapon in private equity, CJ interviews Paul Stansik. Paul is the writer of the Hello Operator Substack and Operating Partner at ParkerGale. He shares hands-on insights into how his team helps portfolio companies scale by transforming sales data into decisions, navigating post-acquisition go-to-market challenges, and driving the shift from being merely data-aware to fully data-driven. He also discusses sales teams, from hiring the right sales leader for each stage of growth to whether or not having a great playbook is important. With insights on the dangers of unspoken problems (“you can't fix a secret”), how "templates build trust”, and how repeatable processes can unlock real commercial traction, this episode is packed with practical advice for CFOs, finance leaders, and operating partners.—LINKS:Paul Stansik: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulstansikParkerGale: https://www.parkergale.comHello Operator: CJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: http://mostlymetrics.com—TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) Preview and Intro(02:52) Sponsor – Tabs | Rippling Spend | Pulley | Tropic(09:18) What ParkerGale Capital Does(11:35) Revenue Operations: Being the Keeper of the Standard(17:05) Sponsor – NetSuite | MUFG | Planful(20:34) Why Go-to-Market Teams Struggle To Provide More Data(24:29) Data-Aware Versus Data-Driven(26:54) Streamlining and Automating the Right Data(29:56) Why Everything Being Okay Is a Signal That Something Is Wrong(34:03) Defining Metrics and Why You Track Them(40:18) The Qualities of Great Sales Leaders(43:00) Why CEOs Often Pick the Wrong Sales Leader(47:58) The Importance of Hiring Someone With a Good Playbook(54:40) You Can't Fix a Secret(56:13) The Right Cadence for Reviewing Performance(58:34) What Good Quota Attainment Looks Like(01:01:02) The Lack of Training for Sales Teams(01:03:54) The Urge To Promote the Best Sales Rep to People Manager(01:07:10) Wrap#PortfolioOperations #PrivateEquity #GoToMarketStrategy #DataDrivenDecisions #SalesLeadership—SPONSORS:Tabs is a platform that brings all of your revenue-facing data and workflows - billing, AR, payments, rev rec, and reporting - onto a single system so you can automate and be more flexible.
