Go here: https://fos.now/yt-apply-576I met with a wealth management firm in London that manages $750M in assets. They brought us in to help build a media company inside their organization.In conservative industries such as wealth management, brand recognition is often the primary constraint. The challenge is to create cultural relevance and trust at scale without compromising credibility or standards.In this video, I walk through the systems we put in place to make that shift. We covered their LinkedIn OS, a content waterfall that turns one idea into consistent distribution, the org chart required to run media internally, and how to expand into Instagram and YouTube while maintaining quality.This is the same operating model we use inside Founder OS to help founders turn expertise into distribution, and distribution into long-term leverage.Want to LEARN proven systems to grow your personal brand?

Anthropic startet einen frontalen Angriff auf OpenAI mit vier Super-Bowl-Werbespots: "Ads are coming to AI". Sam Altman reagiert sichtlich angefasst und nennt Anthropic "autoritär". Amazon und Google liefern starke Earnings – AWS wächst 24%, Google Cloud sogar 48% – aber beide Aktien fallen. Pip prognostiziert: Amazon verkauft Whole Foods. Neue Details zum SpaceX-XAI-Merger: Ein Two-Step-Merger könnte XAIs desaströse Zahlen vor Investoren verstecken. Reddit hört auf, eingeloggte User zu reporten. Bei Neura Robotics, dem deutschen Robotik-Unicorn, stapeln sich die Red Flags. Steve Bannon fordert öffentlich, dass ICE und Militär während der Midterm-Wahlen an Wahllokalen patrouillieren sollen. Die Washington Post entlässt 30% der Journalisten – während Jeff Bezos 75 Millionen für den Melania-Film ausgibt.

A severe bomb cyclone is targeting the East Coast, threatening to freeze supply chains just days after a similar crisis left trucks stranded in Louisiana. Drivers and fleets are urged to prioritize safety and understand their rights regarding coercion as winter weather intensifies along critical corridors like I-95. While the physical world battles ice, Wall Street celebrates C.H. Robinson's surging stock price following reports of impressive profit margins. The company credits its "lean AI" strategy for decoupling volume growth from headcount, signaling a fundamental shift in how brokerages manage efficiency. The autonomous sector also sees massive investment as Waabi secures $750 million to expand its "physical AI" technology for both trucking and robotaxis. This funding round supports a major partnership with Uber to deploy thousands of autonomous vehicles, aiming for commercialization by 2027. In the courts, major business groups are backing freight brokers in a Supreme Court case that could redefine liability for trucking accidents. Proponents argue that federal law should shield brokers from state-level negligent hiring claims to prevent a costly patchwork of regulations. On the legislative front, a new bill offers a lifeline for heavy-duty towing operators by addressing restrictive length regulations during recovery operations. The proposed Towing Safety Act aims to clear accident scenes faster and improve roadside safety for first responders. Legal troubles continue for the R&R Family of Companies as new lawsuits allege the firm continued operations and accumulated debt while insolvent. Meanwhile, legacy carrier Schneider prepares for a leadership transition with Jim Filter set to take the helm as CEO this summer.

Kass and Mike Lazerow who are serial entrepreneurs, seasoned investors, and co-authors of Shoveling Sh!t: A Love Story About the Entrepreneur's Messy Path to Success joined me for one of the most honest conversations I've had about what it really takes to build companies and build a life. They share the unvarnished truth about their journey: surviving the dot-com crash, buying Golf.com back from bankruptcy, founding and scaling Buddy Media (eventually acquired by Salesforce for $745 million), and raising three kids while raising capital. They talk about the choices that shaped them, including why they walked away from a bigger offer from Google and how radical transparency kept their team committed during a three-month period when they couldn't make payroll.We also dive into the patterns they see in the 100+ startups they've backed like how ego, secrecy, and shiny-object syndrome derail founders along with the essential habits that help leaders stay grounded. And because they work together and live together, they open up about how they divide responsibilities, handle stress, and stay connected through exits, pivots, health scares, and everything in between. Their upcoming book distills 50 hard-earned lessons about leadership, resilience, and building a life that actually works. This episode gives you a powerful preview and a reminder that the entrepreneurial path is messy, human, and absolutely worth it.Where to find Kass and Mike:InstagramFacebookMike's LinkedIn Kass' LinkedInTimestamps:(00:00) The beauty in the struggle: why entrepreneurship is a love story(01:10) Resilience as identity and getting punched 10 times for one win(19:19) Creating a workplace people stay in through loyalty and learning(20:16) Radical transparency: telling the team you might not make payroll(21:06) Bad news vs. surprises: the leadership rule that protects trust(22:21) Benevolent dictatorship vs. democracy: choosing decisive leadership(23:53) Honesty as the most valuable currency in a downturn(37:30) The pivot mindset: knowing when to throw things away(52:23) Life after a big exit and leaving ego at the door(53:45) Why working under others made Mike a stronger leader(58:26) Founders and the guilt tax: the emotional cost of ambition(01:08:45) The long-term power of paying it forward(01:10:01) When cofounding goes wrong: misalignment, fallout, and repair(01:12:50) Picking the right partner—in life and in business(01:13:29) Cofounder “prenup” talks: values, work ethic, commitment(01:14:05) No shortcuts: filtering for grit and willingness to shovel(01:15:16) Why overlapping founder roles create conflict(01:21:12) A simple lens for evaluating opportunities without the jargon(01:22:14) Imposter syndrome and grounding yourself under pressure(01:24:22) What they wish they'd kConnect with Alisa!

The giant tax-cuts-and-spending package passed by Congressional Republicans will have major ramifications for every state in the country, but Colorado is one of the first place it's really being felt. Thanks to the state's unusual way of handling its finances, the federal tax cuts immediately threw Colorado's finances way out of whack.That was the main reason lawmakers recently came back to the Capitol in August for a high temperature, high stakes special session. But grueling fights over AI regulations and a painful public confrontation between House leaders at times made the budget debates feel like a secondary concern.CPR's Bente Birkeland, The Colorado Sun's Jesse Paul and KUNC's Lucas Brady Woods discuss the bills that did, and did not, make it past the finish line over the six-day special legislative session. They also dig into the growing chasm between the two caucuses in the House, and what it could mean for the regular session in the new year.

In this episode, Kevin Thompson talks with Shelly Berkowitz, founder of BrightStar Care and now CEO of Founder 2 Founder. She shares how a personal struggle to find quality home care for her grandmother in 2001 inspired her to create BrightStar Care, a company combining medical and non-medical services under one roof. Over two decades, Shelly grew the brand to more than 400 locations, serving thousands of families weekly while navigating the challenges of single motherhood, rapid franchising, and leading through COVID-19. When it came time to sell, she discovered that 80% of the process was emotional. Her insistence on finding a buyer who valued culture and quality over just money led her to Peak Rock Capital, where she remains a shareholder and board chair. Today, through Founder 2 Founder, Shelly helps other entrepreneurs prepare for scaling or selling, offering the kind of empathetic guidance she wished she'd had. This conversation is about vision, grit, and the relationships—from mentors and early franchisees to her husband that helped shape every step of her journey.

Welcome back to another thought-provoking episode of Tank Talks! In this episode, Matt Cohen and John Ruffolo cut through the noise to unpack the latest economic headlines and policy shifts reshaping North America's business landscape. From Canada's surprise repeal of the Digital Services Tax to Brookfield's launch of an evergreen private equity fund, this episode dives deep into the forces driving change in trade, finance, and innovation.Will Canada's late-stage policy reversal strengthen its position in U.S. trade talks? Are evergreen funds the next big wave in private equity? And how will digital-only banks and stablecoins reshape the future of finance? Tune in for all that and more!Canada's Digital Services Tax Repealed at the 11th Hour (00:14)Just hours before the June 30th collection date, Canada repealed its controversial 3% digital services tax to clear the runway for renewed trade negotiations with the U.S. Matt and John unpack the political optics, the timing missteps, and why this repeal might've come too late to score real leverage in the upcoming Carney-Trump summit.Trade Tensions and a Pivot Away from U.S. Exports (02:50)With U.S. tariffs still biting Canadian industries like steel, aluminum, and autos, exports to non-U.S. markets jumped 5.7% in May. John analyzes the long-term risks and what a 10% tariff “compromise” could mean for Canadian trade policy moving forward.Brookfield's Evergreen Fund: Liquidity vs. Strategy (06:37)Brookfield's launch of a new evergreen private equity fund is raising eyebrows. These liquid investment vehicles are tailored for high-net-worth investors, but could they undermine Brookfield's traditional closed-end funds? Matt and John discuss the tradeoffs and potential disruption to institutional capital models.Stablecoins, Erebor & The Future of Banking (10:53)With the launch of Erebor, a new U.S. digital-only bank backed by Palmer Luckey, Peter Thiel, and Joe Lonsdale, the open banking revolution is heating up. But will Canada get left behind amid regulatory hesitations? The duo explores how stablecoins and crypto-native banks are reshaping the financial ecosystem.The “Big Beautiful Bill”: Trillions in U.S. Spending (13:56)At nearly 1,000 pages and $4.85 trillion, the latest U.S. tax and spending package is a behemoth. John calls out some of the more controversial provisions, like Section 899, a “revenge tax” aimed at foreign investors, and weighs in on what this means for the U.S. deficit and global investment climate.Figma Files to Go Public: A Product-Led Rocketship with a Caveat (16:49)Figma's S-1 filing reveals eye-popping growth: $750M in 2024 revenue, 91% gross margins, and 90% of the Fortune 500 on board. But one number raised eyebrows, its definition of net revenue retention. Is the 132% figure misleading? Matt and John dissect the metrics and what investors need to know.Anthropic & OpenAI's Revenue Explosion (19:39)AI darlings Anthropic and OpenAI are shattering expectations, with annualized revenues of $4B and $10B, respectively. What's fueling this growth, and is it sustainable? Matt and John assess the trajectory and strategic implications for the broader AI race.Meta's Talent War: $300M Signing Bonuses & AI Domination (20:30)Meta's aggressive push into AI includes poaching top OpenAI talent with eye-watering offers reportedly reaching $300M. Is this visionary investing, or panic-mode recruiting? The conversation digs into the implications of Meta's superintelligence ambitions and the high-stakes battle for AI supremacy.Microsoft Layoffs: AI Efficiency or Budget Strategy? (22:52)With Microsoft cutting 9,000 jobs, questions swirl around whether AI-driven efficiencies or strategic capital reallocation are the real drivers. John shares his take on what this means for enterprise software, consulting firms, and the future of knowledge work.As the tides of global economics, innovation, and technology continue to shift, Tank Talks is your front-row seat to the big moves shaping our world.
