In this episode hosted by Brien Gearin, we sit down with Randall Pulfer, co-founder of Chipp Golf Co, a company reinventing the golf glove with bold designs and premium materials.

She shares her journey as a single mama, why she pivoted from high-ticket to low-ticket after having her daughter (and later divorce), how traffic and eyeballs became the foundation of her business, and how she scaled to $7–8.5M a year with $200 and under courses, all while running a very lean team and spending the majority of her time with her toddler.

In this episode of Founder Talk, Alex Iannessa, founder of EnRoads Paving, shares the real story behind going from zero to eight figures in under four years. Alex breaks down how he took a side-door industry path, from laborer, to sales, to founder, and how he used relationships, reputation, and relentless consistency to build a national parking lot management company during a time when most businesses were slowing down.We get into the sacrifices no one sees:The 12-hour days.Moving back in with his parents.Losing relationships.Starting with nothing but a laptop, a cell phone, and blind trust from family investors.Alex also dives into the skilled trades crisis and why society pushed kids into college debt, how that narrative is breaking down, and why the next generation is rediscovering the opportunity and wealth inside blue-collar America. He explains how EnRoads found its competitive edge by bridging the gap between the boardroom and the jobsite, and why trust, humility, and showing up authentically beat any sales tactic.We talk through everything founders never say out loud, from outgrowing your personal life, to the hard choices that come with growth, to why the construction and education systems are fundamentally broken and ripe for innovation.You'll learn: ✅ How Alex grew EnRoads to eight figures in less than four years ✅ Why relationships, reputation, and character are true competitive advantages ✅ The sacrifices founders make (and what Alex would do differently) ✅ Why the skilled trades are booming again and why the narrative is shifting ✅ How AI will reshape construction and where the real opportunities are ✅ Why young founders should focus on resilience, not perfectionIf you've been searching “how to scale a business fast,” “what it really takes to build an eight-figure company,” or “is the skilled trades comeback real?” — this episode gives you the unfiltered truth.Connect with Alex Iannessa:Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexanderdiannessa/Guest Website: https://enroadspaving.com/If you are a B2B company that wants to build your own in-house content team instead of outsourcing your content to a marketing agency, we may be a fit for you!

In this solo episode, Jaryd Krause pulls back the curtain on the part of buying a 7-figure business that almost nobody talks about—the real costs, the real timelines, the real competition, and the parts of the process that can quietly wreck your deal long before you ever get to the closing table. Most people assume a $1M acquisition is simple math:Find the business, put down the deposit, sign some papers, done. But behind every one of those deals are fees, structures, advisors, lenders, deadlines, and expectations that—if you’re not prepared—will eat your budget and your sanity alive. Here’s what Jaryd gets into:

Collin Ship built his YouTube channel for one purpose: drive qualified leads into his business. He wasn't trying to grow an audience or chase viral moments. He wanted a predictable system that pointed people toward his offer. And it proved how effective a small channel can be when it's built the right way. Collin took an "unsexy" niche (blogging) and paired it with a search-driven YouTube strategy built entirely around keywords, intent, and simple videos that matched what people were actually looking for. That combination led to a multi-7-figure business powered by steady, targeted traffic. In this episode, Collin breaks down the framework that fueled early traction, the surprising advantage YouTube gives new creators that Google doesn't, and why staying niche made sponsorships and affiliate deals far more lucrative.    Key Takeaways 00:00 Intro 01:22 Blogging Isn't Dead - $1.2M in 18 Months 05:23 Why Personal Branding Holds You Accountable 09:56 Using YouTube Strictly for Lead Generation 12:35 YouTube Keyword Strategy That Drove Early Growth 15:17 Does Going Broad on YouTube Hurt Lead Quality? 17:47 YouTube Publishing Frequency – The Sweet Spot 18:18 Why Long YouTube Videos Build Massive Trust 19:11 Make Your Free Content Better Than Paid 19:46 The Four Pillars of YouTube Monetization 21:35 YouTube Channels That Land Affiliates & Sponsors 26:19 Intent vs. Interruption Content Marketing 27:12 Using Paid Ads AND Organic Content to Scale 28:16 How to Run YouTube Ads Without Being Punished 31:20 Getting 6,000+ Leads per Month From YouTube 32:45 The Pros/Cons of Becoming Internet Famous 34:12 Where AI Fits in Your Content System 39:54 The Biggest Mistake People Make with AI 40:49 How He Revived His Offer With an AI Rebrand   Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/li6jI6YsT3A   Let's Connect: Website | Instagram | YouTube | TikTok | Twitter | Facebook

I just got back from a retreat with some incredible seven-figure business owners, and I'm still buzzing from the experience. You'd think we spent the weekend dissecting groundbreaking strategies and the latest marketing tactics, but what truly struck me were the conversations we didn't have. Sometimes what's missing from the conversation tells you more than what's actually being said.In this episode, I'm sharing three major topics that never came up at this retreat and why that matters for your business. From how these entrepreneurs think about the economy to their approach to strategy and revenue planning, the absence of certain conversations revealed a completely different mindset than what you typically hear in online business spaces.This episode will challenge you to think about which conversations you're engaging in and whether they're actually serving the version of you that you're becoming. If you're ready to shift your thinking and surround yourself with the right kind of energy as you scale, this one's for you.Connect with Ellie: Doors are NOW OPEN for The Mastermind Model ellieswift.com/model Apply for the Scalable Freedom Mastermind hereFREE Private Podcast “Inside a 7-Figure Mastermind Business” hereWebsite:      https://www.ellieswift.com/Instagram:   @elliehswiftFacebook Group:    www.facebook.com/groups/shineonsocialellieswift/

What if everything you believe about building a successful business is actually keeping you trapped? Most solopreneurs think more hours equals more money, but they're stuck in what I call the "hamster wheel of hustle" – running faster and faster while getting nowhere because they're doing everything manually. You become the bottleneck in your own business, and no matter how talented you are, there are still only 24 hours in a day. But what if you could flip the script entirely and build a thriving 6-figure business working just 25 hours a week? Today marks our 100th episode milestone, and I've brought you someone who's living proof this isn't just possible – it's proven. Meet Tim Cortinovis – a man who's been working with AI for 35 years and has cracked the code on anti-hustle entrepreneurship. Tim is a bestselling author of six books, including "Agentic Sales: AI and the Future of Sales," and he's recognized as a Top 10 Thought Leader in Agentic AI. But here's what makes Tim remarkable: he's built a 6-figure consulting business that runs almost entirely on autopilot, requiring just 25 hours of his time per week. His newsletter runs completely hands-free with 40% open rates, and he's created an AI assistant named "Rick" who handles all customer communications. Tim isn't just talking about the future of AI in business – he's living it every single day. The AI Hat Podcast host Mike Allton asked Tim Cortinovis about: ✨ AI-First Mindset: Shifting from viewing AI as a tool to seeing it as your business partner and primary operating system. ✨ Automation Architecture: Creating interconnected systems that handle research, content creation, customer communications, and lead nurturing without constant oversight. ✨ Strategic Time Investment: Understanding that working fewer hours requires more upfront planning and system design, but pays exponential dividends in freedom and scalability.

I was about to title this episode "How I'm Actually Feeling About AI Right Now", because honestly? It's not all sunshine and robots over here.Look, you know me. I'm the AI girl. I teach it, I use it, I've built entire systems around it. But lately? Some stuff happening in the AI space is giving me the ick. And in some cases, I'm like... have we completely lost the plot?I'm still team AI—don't get me wrong. This tech has changed everything for entrepreneurs. It's opened up massive opportunities, saved me countless hours, helped me tighten up systems, create better content, and run a stronger company. But here's the thing: not everything coming out of this so-called "AI revolution" is smart. Not all of it is going to grow your business in the right way.So I'm flipping the mic on and getting real about a couple things that aren't sitting right with me. And honestly? I think you might agree.We're building personal brand businesses in this weird new AI-saturated world, and we need to be smart about it. Because your edge isn't in how many automations you have—your edge is YOU. Your stories, your opinions, your energy. That's what can't be replicated, even by a really good AI twin.What You'll Learn:Why AI twins and digital clones are giving me major ick (and why they might be killing your personal brand instead of building it)The problem with AI-generated podcasts and why they'll make your audience tune out fastHow to use AI to amplify yourself without replacing the human connection your audience cravesWhy you don't need to keep up with every single AI development (and how it's actually holding you back)The one thing that will always be your competitive edge as a personal brand entrepreneurHow to zig when everyone else zags—and why "ugly content" might be your secret weaponMy challenge to you: how to lean MORE into being human in your business, not lessResources Mentioned:The Personality Manifesto (FREE): https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/personalityYour Next Steps:Work with Me: https://www.gemmabonhamcarter.com/programsWhat I Use to Run My 7-Figure Business: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/toolsConnect on Social: https://www.instagram.com/gemma.bonhamcarter Support the show

Send us a textHave you ever felt like your whole body wants to shut down the second you think about posting a video or showing your face online?Like your throat closes up, your heart races, and you want to run and hide?That was me too.In this episode, I'm telling the real story of how I went from shaking on camera and barely being able to speak…to confidently selling on video, growing my business, and bringing in consistent $20K months.Here's what you'll learn:Why your fear of being visible is not just a confidence thing, and the real reason your body feels unsafe online.How I reprogrammed the fear and shifted my energy so I could actually show up, sell, and feel good doing it.The exact method I use with my one-on-one clients to help them grow past their current income level and finally hit $10K, $20K or even $50K months.If you are done playing small and know it is time to stop hiding, this episode will show you what is really holding you back and what to do about it.And if you want to work with me one-on-one, just email me the word MINDSHIFT to apply.

Her vibrant style and smart strategy have landed her features in Cosmopolitan and Taste of Home, and she's built a thriving education business teaching fellow food creatives how to do what she does. But last Black Friday, she tried something new: she ran her first-ever "5 Days of Deals" promotion using my Black Friday in a Box strategy, and the results were incredible.In this episode, Sam and I dive into her journey from custom cake shop owner to food blogger to full-time photographer and educator. She walks us through exactly how she structured her Black Friday week, what offers she sold (from $24 guides to her $2,850 mastermind), and what surprised her most about the results. We also talk about why she's changing things up for this year's Black Friday and what she learned from testing new offers during the sale.If you've ever wondered whether the Black Friday in a Box strategy works for businesses outside of traditional course creation, or if you're curious about how to structure a multi-day promotion with offers at different price points, this episode is for you.What You'll Learn:How Sam transitioned from pastry chef to food photographer to online educatorThe exact breakdown of Sam's five Black Friday offers and how much each one madeWhy her $24 restaurant photography guide ended up being one of her best sellersWhat happened when she tested a brand-new $697 offer on Thanksgiving (spoiler: no one bought it, and that's okay!)How she filled half of her $2,850 mastermind spots without doing any sales callsThe power of testing new offers during Black Friday to gather valuable dataWhat Sam is changing for her Black Friday strategy this yearWhy following the Black Friday in a Box strategy to a T made all the differenceResources Mentioned in This Episode:Black Friday in a Box: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/black-fridaySam's Food Blog: https://frostingandfettuccine.com/Sam's Creative Business: https://samadlercreative.com/Your Next Steps:Work with Me: https://www.gemmabonhamcarter.com/programsWhat I Use to Run My 7-Figure Business: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/toolsConnect on Social: https://www.instagram.com/gemma.bonhamcarter  Support the show

Ever wondered how someone could make half their annual photography income in just one week? That's exactly what happened to Megan O'Hare when she ran her first strategic Black Friday promotion.In this episode, I'm sitting down with Megan O'Hare, the powerhouse behind The Photo Project—a course that teaches moms how to organize their digital photo chaos. We're diving deep into how Megan went from making around $7,000 on her first attempt at a Black Friday sale to crushing it with $51,000 the following year using my Black Friday in a Box strategy. She's pulling back the curtain on exactly how she structures her promotions, why her done-for-you service sells out twice a year, and how she's built a business model that allows her to barely touch social media while still growing her email list and revenue consistently.This conversation is packed with strategy gold, including why Megan limits her high-ticket one-to-one offers to just two sale periods per year, how she's made certain products available ONLY during Black Friday (talk about built-in urgency!), and why 95% of her done-for-you clients are people who already bought her course but decided they'd rather just have her do it.What you'll learn:How Megan went from $7K to $51K in Black Friday sales by implementing a strategic promotion planThe exact structure of her 5-day Black Friday sale and why limiting availability creates massive demandWhy her done-for-you service clients are almost always previous course buyers (and what that means for YOUR business model)How she runs a summer sale using the same Black Friday strategy for an additional revenue boostHer approach to making certain products available ONLY during promotional periods to drive urgencyWhy lead generation ads are her "cost of doing business" and how she thinks about ROI differentlyThe truth about her email marketing strategy (spoiler: it's not perfect, and that's okay)How she's structured pricing for her done-for-you service to avoid awkward money conversationsResources Mentioned in this episode:Black Friday in a Box: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/black-friday The Photo Project: https://thephotoproject.co/ Megan O'Hare on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oharephotos/ Your Next Steps:Work with Me: https://www.gemmabonhamcarter.com/programsWhat I Use to Run My 7-Figure Business: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/toolsConnect on Social: https://www.instagram.com/gemma.bonhamcarter Support the show

MY NEWSLETTER - https://nikolas-newsletter-241a64.beehiiv.com/subscribeJoin me, Nik (https://x.com/CoFoundersNik), as I interview Stuart Draper about how to get your first customer and scale from $0 to $2M in 4 years.I had a freaking treat talking to Stu Draper today. He's an incredible startup founder who just had an eight figure exit from his EdTech company, Stukent, which helped over a million people learn digital marketing. His companies have been on the Inc 5000 list ten times, and he knows exactly how to get your first customer when you're starting from zero.We chat about his journey starting his first digital marketing agency, getfoundfirst.com, during the 2008 recession and why he prioritized being a family man by building a professional baseball field and indoor-outdoor pool over buying a Lamborghini.Stu shares actionable insights on how entrepreneurs can secure their crucial first customer (hint: it might involve working for free) and explains why starting a service-based business is often the best low-risk way for first-time founders to learn entrepreneurship and get in the game.We dive deep into why catching the early wave of AI automation agencies today is just like catching the digital marketing wave 15 years ago—and why AI agency opportunities mirror what made so many digital marketing agency founders millionaires by age 32.Finally, he tells us why focusing on sales and marketing—not mastering your P&L or balance sheet—is the most important part of building a successful business, and how he scaled to eight figures without being a financial expert by hiring a great CFO.Enjoy the conversation!__________________________QUESTIONS THIS EPISODE ANSWERS:What is the most important first step in getting from zero to your first customer?Why is starting an AI automation agency today similar to starting a digital marketing agency in 2008?What is the lowest-risk path for a new entrepreneur to get in the game?How did Stuart Draper use a free customer strategy to land his first paying client?When scaling a business from bootstrap to exit, why should startup founders focus on sales and marketing instead of the P&L?How do you create mission vision values that turn customers into believers?What's the best way to get your first customer when you have no LLC, no website, and no business email?How did Stu scale to an eight figure business without being a financial expert?Why are service-based businesses the best first business for entrepreneurs?What are the biggest business opportunities in 2025 for first-time founders?__________________________Love it or hate it, I'd love your feedback.Please fill out this brief survey with your opinion or email me at nik@cofounders.com with your thoughts.__________________________MY NEWSLETTER: https://nikolas-newsletter-241a64.beehiiv.com/subscribeSpotify: https://tinyurl.com/5avyu98yApple: https://tinyurl.com/bdxbr284YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/nikonomicsYT__________________________This week we covered:00:00 The Journey of Growth and Learning02:59 Navigating the Digital Marketing Landscape05:47 Getting Your First Customer09:06 The Power of Vision and Shared Language11:58 Innovating in Education Technology14:52 The Importance of Sales and Revenue18:11 Lessons from Entrepreneurship21:01 Opportunities in AI and Service-Based Businesses23:55 Final Thoughts and Future Opportunities

When Lyrik Fryer built WorkPlay Branding, she wasn't necessarily trying to be disruptive — she just didn't want to keep living in the adrenaline crash around the revenue model that comes with project-based work. So she did the thing no one else in her industry was doing: she swapped one-off client projects for a high-ticket, yearlong membership model that now meets clients anywhere in the world.But what looks effortless from the outside was built on systems, spreadsheets, and a ruthless commitment to structure. In this conversation, we get into how she engineered consistency and how she used systems to create freedom and high profit margins.

Andrew went from a $13/hour manual labor job to a six-figure sales role at his corporate job. But decided to quit after a feud with a manager who called him “replaceable”. He then took a massive risk, liquidating his 401(k) to buy into his friend's tree-cutting side hustle. That gamble paid off, scaling the home services business into a powerhouse now earning over $180,000 a month with a near-zero marketing budget.In this episode, Andrew joins Ryan Atkinson to share the playbook for his business growth. Learn his unconventional marketing strategies, like using Reddit for free lead generation, plus actionable sales tactics for customer acquisition and crafting an irresistible offer to scale your small business.Takeaways:- A negative corporate experience can be a powerful catalyst for entrepreneurship; being told he was "replaceable" pushed Andrew to leave his stable, six-figure job.- Investing in a friend's existing business can be a viable entry into entrepreneurship; Andrew liquidated his 401(k) to buy a partnership stake, viewing it as a more active investment in his future.- For new home service businesses, the first sales should come from your immediate network of friends and family before expanding outward.- Use every job as a marketing opportunity by approaching neighbors (a "Four Corners" strategy) to let them know you're in the area and ask existing clients for referrals.- Leverage online communities like Reddit by providing genuine expert advice, not just advertising. This builds authority and can lead to organic referrals and top search engine rankings for free.- A strong, simple offer like a "satisfaction guarantee" can be more powerful than complex discounts. It builds trust and ensures customer happiness, which fuels word-of-mouth growth.- Focus marketing efforts on platforms where potential customers are actively searching for a solution (e.g., Google Pay-Per-Click) rather than passively scrolling (e.g., Facebook ads).- Don't underestimate "outdated" sales tactics. When business is slow, personally calling a list of past clients is a highly effective way to generate immediate leads.- In a commoditized industry, differentiate your business with superior quality and expertise. Having a certified expert perform the work was a key selling point for Tree Amigos.- Maintain a lean marketing budget by focusing on high-ROI, organic strategies. Andrew's company spends almost nothing on ads, relying on word-of-mouth, referrals, and his Reddit strategy.Tags: Side Hustle, Service & Consulting, Home Services, Tree Cutting Business, Small BusinessResources:Grow your business today: https://links.upflip.com/the-business-startup-and-growth-blueprint-podcast Connect with Andrew: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-anstrom-50441294/

I am SO pumped to share this episode with you because it's proof that the strategies I teach actually work in the real world.My student Stephanie Kase just pulled back the curtain on how she made $20,013 during Black Friday 2024 using my Black Friday in a Box strategy. And she documented EVERYTHING.We're talking about a woman who doubled her previous year's Black Friday results without massive audience growth. She went from making her typical $4-6K flash sales to hitting a goal that honestly seemed ambitious when she set it.What I love most about Stephanie's approach is that she didn't just follow my strategy blindly - she adapted it, tested it, and made it work for her business. She ran five days of deals, used strategic upsells, and even threw in some warm audience Facebook ads that generated a 13.4x return on ad spend.This isn't just about the numbers though. Stephanie breaks down exactly what worked, what didn't, and what she's changing for next year. She's sharing the behind-the-scenes reality of running a successful Black Friday campaign, including the 500 people who unsubscribed (and why she's totally fine with that).Grab Black Friday in a Box while it's on SALE: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/black-fridayWhat you'll learn:The exact 5-day deal structure that generated over $20K in salesHow strategic upsells and order bumps added $4,100 to her revenueWhy running ads to warm audiences only resulted in 13.4x return on ad spendThe specific email timing strategy that worked (and what didn't)Her biggest mistakes and what she's doing differently in 2025The email subject lines that got the highest open rates during Black Friday weekHow she prepared her audience weeks in advance with a Black Friday catalogThe backend technical issues you need to avoid when running daily dealsResources Mentioned in this Episode:Black Friday in a Box: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/black-fridayStephanie's breakdown and free Black Friday debrief document here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OgJSgXeShB4Your Next Steps:Work with Me: https://www.gemmabonhamcarter.com/programsWhat I Use to Run My 7-Figure Business: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/toolsConnect on Social: https://www.instagram.com/gemma.bonhamcarter Support the show

Her AI Era Summit: Empowering Women in AI with Kinsey and JoyceThe stats are in: men are twice as likely to use AI tools than women. And that's a problem. Not just because AI can boost productivity by 40% (hello, gender income gap!), but because AI tools are literally being trained by the people using them. If more men are using AI than women, guess whose perspective is shaping the future?That's exactly why Kinsey from Feel Good Social and Joyce from Only Boldly decided to shake things up and create Her AI Era Summit – a five-day virtual event designed specifically for women entrepreneurs ready to step into their AI power.I had the best time chatting with these two brilliant women about why women need their own seat at the AI table (spoiler: we're not just taking a seat, we're building our own table), how the "bros with Lambos" are infiltrating AI education, and why women who are already carrying the load at work and home deserve the leg up that AI can provide.We dive deep into the guilt women feel around using AI tools – because heaven forbid we make our lives easier – and why that needs to stop immediately. We also get into some fun lightning rounds about AI headshots, voice cloning, and the AI tasks that still feel like pure magic.If you've been on the fence about embracing AI in your business, this conversation will give you the push (and permission) you need to dive in.Make sure you snag your ticket to the summit, Her AI Era happening Oct 13-19: https://gemma003--heraiera.thrivecart.com/her-ai-era-summit-2025/Resources Mentioned in this Episode:Her AI Era Summit: https://gemma003--heraiera.thrivecart.com/her-ai-era-summit-2025/Only Boldly (Joyce): https://onlyboldly.comAuthentic AI for Entrepreneurs (Kinsey): https://feelgoodsocial.comChatGPT: https://openai.com/chatgptMidjourney: https://midjourney.comMake: https://make.comDescript: https://descript.comPerplexity: https://perplexity.aiYour Next Steps:Get Your Summit Ticket: https://gemma003--heraiera.thrivecart.com/her-ai-era-summit-2025/Work with Me: https://www.gemmabonhamcarter.com/programsWhat I Use to Run My 7-Figure Business: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/toolsConnect on Social: https://www.instagram.com/gemma.bonhamcarter Support the show
