Ron breaks down the latest redistricting battles reshaping Congress. Republicans are aggressively redrawing maps after the Supreme Court's ruling on race in districting, with Trump urging bold action in states like South Carolina — potentially delivering the GOP a net gain of 8+ seats heading into the midterms. President Trump heads to Beijing for a high-stakes summit with Xi Jinping, joined by top officials and business leaders like Elon Musk, as they tackle trade tariffs, AI and semiconductor tensions, Taiwan, and China's role in the Iran conflict. Meanwhile, the Iran standoff shifts into an economic and naval battle over the Strait of Hormuz, driving up gas prices, while lawmakers push the No Budget, No Pay Act to hold Congress accountable during the ongoing DHS shutdown.

Launch Your Box Podcast with Sarah Williams | Start, Launch, and Grow Your Subscription Box
In this week's Ask Sarah episode of The Launch Your Box Podcast, I'm answering a question I hear all the time from subscription box owners who are doing the work - posting consistently, showing up - but still feel like no one's seeing it. Staci asked: “How else can I get followers on Facebook and Instagram? I'm currently posting on my Facebook page but haven't done any ads yet because of my budget. What else can I do to get followers for free?” If you're growing on a tight budget (or no budget at all), this episode is for you. First, Let's Normalize Where You Are I want you to know this upfront: if you're showing up and posting but growth feels slow, you're not doing anything wrong. Organic growth is slower, but it's absolutely possible. And you are not alone in this stage. Why the Right Followers Matter More Than More Followers Before we talk tactics, I ground this conversation in something important:It's not about big numbers. It's about aligned followers. Those people who could actually become subscribers or customers. A small, engaged audience will always outperform a large, disconnected one. 5 Organic Ways to Grow (No Ads Required) 1. Start Conversations in Your ContentInstead of just showcasing your box, invite people to engage. Polls, this-or-that questions, and simple prompts work incredibly well. Example: “Would you rather get Product A or Product B in your next box?” Engagement helps your content get seen. And it's free. 2. Show Up in Facebook Groups (Strategically)Join 2–3 groups where your ideal customer already hangs out. Don't sell. Be helpful. When people see your value in comments, they naturally click through to learn more about you. 3. Share on Your Personal Profile (Gently)Your personal network already knows and trusts you so let them in on what you're building. Share behind-the-scenes moments, your why, or sneak peeks, not just polished product posts. 4. Collaborate with Other Creators or Small BusinessesCollaboration is one of the fastest free growth strategies out there. Joint giveaways, co-hosted Lives, or simple cross-promotions introduce you to the right audience without spending a dollar. 5. Use Reels and Live Video (Keep It Simple)Both Facebook and Instagram prioritize video, especially Live video. Go LIVE while packing boxes, sharing a theme, or answering FAQs. It doesn't have to be fancy. Bonus: you can repurpose Lives into reels, clips, and stories for extra mileage. You don't need a huge audience to win. You need trust, consistency, and connection with the right people. Organic growth takes time, but when you stay visible and intentional, you're building a foundation that lasts. Join me for this Ask Sarah episode where I break down exactly how to grow your audience organically, even with a limited budget and how to focus on growth that actually supports your business.

Ever wonder why some businesses thrive during economic chaos while others collapse? Many believe success in the trades comes from luck or endless hustle, but the truth is discipline, systems, and culture determine survival. In this episode of The Better Than Rich Show, host Mike Abramowitz sits down with Tim O'Brien, founder of Tim O'Brien Homes, who shares how launching a homebuilding company during the Great Recession became his greatest advantage. He unpacks how faith-based principles of stewardship, integrity, and servant leadership fueled his growth from zero to $138 million. From building long-term trade partnerships and defining company values to using the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) for sustainable scale, O'Brien shows how simplicity, trust, and vision create businesses that last.

We just happen to build homes.” “Culture isn't a slogan—it's a system that decides who stays and who leaves.” “Your best trade partners aren't your vendors, they're your collaborators.” “Freedom of time is the ultimate wealth.” Key Takeaways Build culture before chasing growth. Your team and trade partners should co-create values, not receive them top-down.Implement structure early. Meeting cadences and EOS frameworks prevent chaos as you scale. Prioritize long-term relationships. Treat trades and clients as collaborators in your ecosystem. Simplify annually. Audit your systems and processes to eliminate redundancy and complexity before burnout sets in.

Ever feel like the more your business grows, the less peace you actually have? Many entrepreneurs chase revenue, automation, and scale—only to realize they've built a machine that runs their life instead of serving it. What if true success isn't about doing more, but about becoming more human in a world obsessed with efficiency? In this episode of The Better Than Rich Show, host Mike Abramowitz interviews Ryan Levesque, best-selling author of Ask and Choose, creator of the Ask Method, and founder of The Digital Contrarian newsletter. Ryan shares his journey from building a $70 million digital business to leaving it behind for a simpler, faith-centered life on a farm in Vermont. He explains how to protect authenticity in the age of AI, craft a “Category of One” brand, and align your business with your family, faith, and values.

Prioritize time, presence, and family over arbitrary business goals. Guard your authentic voice. Let AI support efficiency, not authenticity. Adopt the Three-Part Content Model. Build your “Category of One,” create a consistent content hub, and scale intentionally through repurposing. Embrace the unscalable. True connection, creativity, and faith are built person-to-person—not through automation.

Calico is building an agentic AI system for apparel sourcing and production—automating the "messy middle" of manufacturing that has operated on emails, Excel, and WhatsApp for decades. As a founder who previously built and exited apparel brands, Kathleen Chan experienced the pain firsthand: opening a Shopify store takes minutes, but actually producing inventory requires staying up until 2am managing factory communications. In this episode, she shares how Calico is creating a new category during the 2025 tariff crisis, when sourcing directors are rewriting playbooks that haven't changed in 50 years. Topics Discussed: How Calico functions as an AI co-pilot for sourcing directors and production managers Creating a category when no budget line exists for agentic AI systems Leveraging the 2025 tariff environment as an adoption catalyst Why six months of paid acquisition produced high signups but zero quality customers Sequencing GTM tactics from unscalable one-to-ones to conferences to content Building authenticity in a market saturated with AI slop and generic LinkedIn content Hiring early evangelists who maintain conviction through the startup zigzag GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Match GTM motion to how your market transacts, not what scales: Calico tested paid acquisition for six months before realizing relationship-building converted better despite being unscalable. In apparel manufacturing, decades-long supplier relationships can't turn on and off overnight—the buying motion reflects this reality. Kathleen's approach: early-stage requires one-to-one dinners and networking to answer nuanced questions; mid-stage shifts to conferences for broader reach; late-stage deploys LinkedIn content once the market understands your category. The sequencing matters because each stage builds on the previous one's trust foundation. Brutally audit customer quality, not conversion metrics: Calico's paid acquisition drove signups and "conversions by marketing sense," creating a false signal of product-market fit. After six months, the math revealed these customers cost more to acquire than those from relationship channels and had lower quality. Kathleen's lesson: vanity metrics provide a "weird little dopamine hit" that masks broken unit economics. For B2B founders in complex sales cycles, track cost-per-quality-customer, not cost-per-signup. Use macro disruption to collapse sales cycles: The 2025 tariff crisis created an "impossible challenge" for Calico's ICP—sourcing directors forced to rewrite playbooks built over decades while tariffs changed via tweet. Rather than fighting the chaos, Calico positioned itself as the solution to this specific moment, anchoring customer conversations on tariff-driven urgency. This transformed education from abstract ("here's what agentic AI can do") to concrete ("here's how we solve your tariff problem today"). B2B founders should identify trigger events that make the status quo untenable. Create category clarity by defining what you're not: In a market where "AI could mean things to many different people," Calico differentiated by explicitly stating what their system cannot do. Kathleen prioritized "dispelling the notions of what we are and what we aren't" over overselling capabilities. This matters because sophisticated buyers—especially in industries with low tech adoption—need to understand boundaries before they'll trust promises. The tactic builds credibility in noisy markets where everyone claims AI magic. Hire evangelists who outlast founder doubt: Calico's most impactful GTM decision was bringing on early team members who could evangelize value through the inevitable "zigzaggy" early stage—when "it's exciting one day and the worst day ever the next." These people interface directly with customers regardless of whether the founder is having doubts or frustrations. Kathleen's insight: in B2B relationship-driven sales, your early GTM hires' conviction directly determines whether customers stick through product evolution. Hire for authentic belief, not just skills. Deprioritize content in high-noise environments: Calico deliberately delays LinkedIn content until later stages because "folks are a little bit more muted to all the LinkedIn content coming at them." With AI making content easier than ever to create, Kathleen sees audiences questioning whether to take it seriously and whether AI-generated content has less value than human-generated. Her approach: authenticity trumps quantity. For B2B founders, this means investing in formats that can't be easily faked (video, in-person) before scaling written content. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

Born and raised in Los Angeles to a famed musician father (Don Wilson of The Ventures) and a glamorous pin-up model mother, Staci's life has always been steeped in creativity. Yet, her entrance into filmmaking wasn't planned—it evolved naturally through her work as a horror novelist and entertainment journalist. With a passion for storytelling and a love for visual style, she eventually directed short films and features that showcase her unique blend of artistry, grit, and genre flair.Throughout the conversation, Staci Layne Wilson reflects on the confidence she gained through small, creative victories, her experiences navigating the film world as a woman, and her desire to tell authentic stories—whether through film or memoir. Her book So L.A. offers a humorous yet heartfelt look into her unconventional upbringing, filled with wild stories like meeting Malcolm McDowell weekly or being invited to the Playboy Mansion as a teenager. With future projects on the horizon, including a documentary on her father's legendary band, she continues to blend past and present into meaningful art that captures the spirit of Hollywood's golden oddities.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bulletproof-screenwriting-podcast--2881148/support.
