My guest this week is Ash Fontana, a managing partner at venture capital firm Zetta, who invests in companies which build software that uses artificial intelligence methods like machine learning to predict and prescribe outcomes. Ash’s combined experience as a founder, entrepreneur, and investor give him the perfect background to discuss with us one of the hottest topics in business and investing. This conversation is useful for anyone trying to evolve their own way of dealing with data. Of particular interest are the ways that Ash and his team evaluate data sets and how they think about competitive advantage in this new world—where he advocates a new term to replace the concept of moat: loops. If we can use data to do things better than humans, or if we can supercharge our intuitions with predictive models, we can harness the power of this new technology. What Ash has taught me is that data itself is dumb. But great data sets can represent the fuel for incredible companies. Let’s dive into how that may be. Please enjoy this conversation on how AI is changing business, and how we might profit from that change. For more episodes go to InvestorFieldGuide.com/podcast.

In this weeks show we’ll be speaking with commercial real estate investor, Ash Patel. Ash is quite the visionary as he commonly takes vacant and/or commercial properties and repositions them into highly valuable investments. And the best part, Ash did most of this all while working a full-time IT job. He has since gone full-time as a Real estate Investor, but you could say that he built a very successful real estate investment business in his part-time. I’m positive that you’ll find our show with Ash both inspiring and motivational…I know I did. Here’s what you’ll learn in todays show. How Ash made the transition from being a full-time IT consultant to a full-time real estate investor. Why he prefers commercial investments to residential? The reasons why he was forced him to remain vacant for more than 6 months in one of his multifamily properties and the lessons he learned from this experience. Why he feels local bank relationships are paramount in this business, especially when it comes to smaller scale commercial projects. The opportunity he saw in a vacant single use tenant building that had an abnormally small amount of parking and turn it into a highly desirable asset. How he’s been able to find all of his recent deals without having to do any direct marketing strategies like direct mail or cold calling. How he’s been able to hedge his risk from another potential real estate down cycle by negotiating longer terms with his banks and also selling off any of his higher priced assets. Why he feels that there are a ton of opportunities that exist on the local MLS, not Loopnet or CoStar, but the local MLS. The reasons he wishes he would have sought out a mentor in the very beginning to help offset his learning curve and how he would have gone about finding this mentor.

Ash Ambirge is one of the most colorful and unique writers on these old internets. I love her style. She brings details to life. She elegantly dances with metaphor. As Seth Godin said, she has an, "original voice in a world that sorely needs it." You can find her at The Middle Finger Project. Go subscribe and let her tickle your reading bone. Ash shares how she went from sleeping in her car to launching her first product. And how it's all about guts. Here's what we talk about: Her start in the corporate world and her painful trip through her own copywriting business. How Ash picked the wrong clients, even though they seemed like the ideal clients. Why she did work to make her resume look good but didn't enjoy the work at all. Why she said she was "foolishly optimistic" and what that led to. The struggle she faced, praying not to overdraw her bank account, when her roommate kicked her out (so her roommate's boyfriend could move in). A wild story about a beautiful guy (her words) who ended up surprising her with something you can't imagine. What made Ash say she thought she was living in a "white trash soap opera." How sleeping in her car, in a Kmart parking lot, gave her the guts to change everything. Why she thinks you're scared to make offers to your customers. The importance of showing up. Why she wrote her first book for herself and why she needed it. What she means when she said, "The only way we can connect with people is by helping them to see you...insisting on being yourself." And how it's an important, human act. Why Ash thinks the bar is consistently being raised. Why it's important to find people who can help you make sure your business is taken seriously. How the words, "Go, go, go," changed her world. What Ash's nervous habit is. Why she is glad she ignored the "Sign up for my newsletter" trend. Why Ash is suspicious of "regularly regurgitated traditional marketing advice." Why it's important for you to give people what they want. And how it's helped her grow her email list and build her business.
