Welcome to another episode of Category Visionaries — the show that explores GTM stories from tech's most innovative B2B founders. In today's episode, we're speaking with Richard Potter, CEO and Co-Founder of Peak, an AI platform that has raised $118 Million in funding. Here are the most interesting points from our conversation: The Birth of Peak in the AI Landscape: Richard discusses the early vision for Peak in 2016, focusing on leveraging AI and machine learning to enhance business performance before the widespread AI boom. Educating Early Adopters: The initial challenge was educating the market on AI's potential, with many early adopters excited but equally many skeptics unsure of AI's practicality due to the data maturity levels at the time. Transitioning from Early Adopters to Mainstream Market: Richard outlines the shift in selling to early adopters versus mainstream adopters, emphasizing the need for certainty of outcomes and robust comparisons in the mainstream market. Go-to-Market and Marketing Philosophy: Peak's approach to marketing has evolved from raising awareness and generating excitement to focusing on value creation and demonstrating tangible benefits of AI to businesses. Navigating the Tech Recession and Future Optimism: Despite the challenges posed by the recent tech downturn, Richard shares a positive outlook for Peak's future, driven by strong current demand and growth. Fundraising Strategy and Lessons Learned: Richard reflects on Peak's fundraising journey, the strategy of raising early and often without desperation, and the importance of being bold and visionary from the start.

What if instead of letting a business owner pay your commission, you were the owner? All entrepreneurs want to do the thing on their own terms, but many give up after a single failure. I had the pleasure of chatting with Richard Potter, the brains behind FBA Wholesale Hybrid, about his ability to start and scale successful businesses out of seemingly thin air. But the road to building a multimillion-dollar venture wasn't always a smooth ride. Here's how a $9,500 disaster gave Richard the momentum to build several successful businesses in just a few years and why he won't stop doing the thing any time soon.

#OTD Illusionist Richard Potter, one of the country's first well known magicians, was born in Hopkinton, Massachusetts. Actor Michael Beach narrates.

The saga continues with another “Scream” franchise legend. Her movies grossing over $1 billion at the global box office, veteran producer Marianne Maddalena started out Wes Craven's assistant on “Deadly Friend.” Eventually becoming producing partners, the pair formed Craven/Maddalena Films and their work sliced through Hollywood as horror movie gold. Credits include: every “Scream” film, the upcoming sixth “Scream,” “Scream: The TV Series,” “Wes Craven's New Nightmare,” “Red Eye” with Rachel McAdams and Cillian Murphy, "Vampire in Brooklyn” with Eddie Murphy, “Delirium,” “The Hills Have Eyes” (2006 and 2007), “Cursed,” “Dracula 2000,” "The People Under the Stairs,” “Shocker” and “Music of the Heart,” which garnered two Oscar nominations; one for Meryl Streep as Best Actress and one for Best Song. Maddalena joins “Inspired Minds” to cover the horror genre, manifesting dreams, her early ambitions as a film producer and discovering the iconic Ghostface mask. Special thanks: Richard Potter.

First slashing his way to the screen as a Bob Weinstein's assistant at Miramax Films, Richard Potter read Kevin Williamson's “Scary Movie” script one night, and insisted the film be made. He convinced Dimension Films to buy it, Wes Craven to direct it, the script was re-titled “Scream,” and the rest is horror movie history. He also developed legacy titles such as “Halloween,” “Hellraiser,” and “Highlander” into their biggest and most successful releases with “Halloween H20,” “Hellraiser: Bloodline” and “Highlander: The Final Dimension.” Other films to his name: “Scream 2,” “Mimic,” “The Crow: City of Angels,” “Nightwatch,” "Phantoms” and “Diciembres.”As an executive, Potter was Senior Vice President of Production and Development at Dimension, as well as Executive Vice President of Production and Development at Relatively Media. In this episode, he discusses The Beatles, the origin of the “Scream” franchise and why his “Night of the Animated Dead” serves as a love letter to George A. Romero's horror classic, “Night of the Living Dead.”

#OTD Magician Richard Potter, one of the nation's most famous entertainers of his time, was born in Hopkinton, MA. Actor Michael Beach narrates.

Veterans are a unique breed of individuals. They are the only demographic in the nation tied together by the oaths they take to the country and the values they hold instilled in them from the moment they step off that bus at boot camp. As they continue through life, the values, like duty and selfless service, continue to drive many of them to not walk past problems in their communities. When they see a need they step up to meet it. It's just who they are.   During this episode of the #StillServing podcast, Host Rob Couture speaks with Lt. Gen. (USMC, Ret.)

Transcript Hadley: [00:00:00] So welcome to the show, Richard. Great to have you.  [00:00:04] Richard: [00:00:04] It's great to be here. Great to be here.  [00:00:07] Hadley: [00:00:07] Cool. So, so look as you know, We want to essentially get to understand the essence of our guests, right? Uh, we want to know what makes you tick. We want to know what brings you alive, and we want to know how the trait of curiosity has impacted you over your life and career, uh, from when you were young through to now. [00:00:26] Uh, so, so what we'll do is we will have campfire, like discussions, uh, imagine yourself sitting around a campfire and we telling the story of our lives and tag. You it. So before we get into the, the essence of Richard, tell me what does curiosity mean to you?  [00:00:48] Richard: [00:00:48] Wow. I would say Hadley. I think curiosity ultimately is the measure of your success to navigate the world. [00:00:56] It's just, it's so important to me, what it really is in my head at least, is that little sweet spot between humility and confidence. It's the humility to recognize that there's learning everywhere, but it's, it's coupled with that, that self-confidence to investigate and make sense of it. And it's that fine balance between those two bits and your ability to sit in that sweet spot I would contend is the greatest ability that you can have in your life. [00:01:34] Hadley: [00:01:34] That makes sense. In fact, I think I take the confidence thing just one step further and saying it's also the confidence to ask questions because so many people don't have the confidence to ask questions. Then most of the times everybody else in the room would ask if only they had the self-confidence to know that the lack of understanding a specific question, or having the answer to a specific question, doesn't define your worth. [00:02:01] Richard: [00:02:01] Yeah. Yeah. And I think that's so, that's so true, Hadley. It is that confidence of inquiry. Isn't it, rather than the confidence of conceit in thinking that there is no more to know. So it is. Yeah. I mean, it's in that, that location.  [00:02:18] Hadley: [00:02:18] Awesome. I love that. In fact, one of the things I always say is, and this it's not being cocky, but it's being confident in your ability to learn something. [00:02:27] And I firmly believe that I can do anything that anyone else can do. As long as I've had the same exposure to get to that point because nobody just knows what they know or can do what they do well without what has come before. [00:02:42] Richard: [00:02:42] So that's great. And you know, a nice thing. This is what the topic of your conversations are with, with your guest in this space. [00:02:50] Is, is that, that, that exposure, how did everybody through exposure through their lives, equip themselves with the ability to be curious. That's where we are.  [00:03:03] Hadley: [00:03:03] Awesome. So speaking of life now, come on. Tell us, where were you born? Did you have siblings? You know, how many? What were your parents like? Give us, give us a little window into your world. [00:03:12] Richard: [00:03:12] Well, I mean, I kind of feel now beholden that we've got this sort of curiosity,...

We look out 3 to 5 years into the future at the trends which will have an impact on our clients and their customers. The internet has re-shaped the supply chain, often only needing the supplier and manufacturer to reach the buyer. These smaller supply chains enable higher profit margins, lower costs and greater market transparency. New mechanisms, such as cryptocurrency - where a crowd-owned 'block chain' ledger is used instead of an issuing bank ledger - will impact business and consumers. This, the first of two episodes on this topic, is where we focus our attention on this combination of the cloud, the crowd and advancing technologies. We discuss the impact they are beginning to have on industries established in some cases for hundreds of years - Disintermediation!
