Unlocking Profitability: Andrew Bolton's Unique Approach to Tech Support for Seniors

Business of Tech

Andrew Bolton, CEO and co-founder of TechRescue, has developed a unique approach to delivering technical services specifically tailored for seniors. With a growing client base of nearly 1,000 seniors on a monthly subscription model, Bolton's company focuses on providing empathetic and personalized tech support. Unlike traditional managed service providers, TechRescue positions itself as a "tech therapist," emphasizing the importance of human connection and understanding in every interaction. This approach is particularly vital when dealing with a demographic that may not be as tech-savvy, as Bolton highlights the evolving nature of senior users who are increasingly engaged with technology.The inspiration for TechRescue stemmed from Bolton's personal experiences with his family, particularly his grandmother's struggles with technology. Recognizing a gap in the market for services that cater to seniors, he and his team have created a supportive environment where every call is treated as a priority. The company employs individuals with backgrounds in sociology and psychology rather than traditional tech support roles, ensuring that empathy and communication are at the forefront of their service. This human-centric approach has proven effective, as Bolton notes that most calls are not about complex tech issues but rather simple, everyday problems that seniors encounter.TechRescue operates on a subscription model, offering services at $50 per month or $400 annually. The company has established metrics to maintain profitability while ensuring quality service. Bolton explains that they have a structured process for handling calls, aiming to resolve issues efficiently while still allowing for personal interaction. By focusing on the emotional and psychological aspects of tech support, TechRescue has carved out a niche that resonates with both seniors and their families, who often seek assistance for their elderly relatives.Looking ahead, Bolton envisions expanding TechRescue's reach, potentially into international markets. However, he acknowledges that the biggest challenge lies in finding the right personnel who can deliver the empathetic service that defines their brand. As the company continues to grow, it remains committed to its mission of providing accessible and compassionate tech support to seniors, reinforcing the idea that technology should enhance, rather than complicate, their lives.

jillamysager.com Jill Amy Sager, a professional Tarot reader, channeler, and author whose profound work stands out in the ever-growing world of metaphysics and spiritual self-development. Jill's journey and unique perspective offer your audience a refreshing and relatable approach to accessing universal wisdom. Jill's life has been anything but conventional. Born with physical disabilities that shaped her path, she embraced her identity as an outsider, channeling her challenges into a remarkable connection with “Guidance”—a collective energy of love and wisdom she describes as “a radio frequency that's always on.” This connection has led her to help countless individuals navigate life's uncertainties through Tarot and channeled readings. Here's why Jill would make a fascinating guest for your show: Unique Approach to Spirituality: Jill's work isn't rooted in academic philosophy or spiritual dogma but in deeply personal experiences and an authentic connection with universal energy. Her insights are both accessible and transformative. A Personal Journey with Universal Lessons: From growing up with physical disabilities to finding empowerment in unconventional choices, Jill's story inspires resilience and self-acceptance. She's an advocate for using personal struggles as a catalyst for growth. Timely Expertise: With Tarot and metaphysics surging in popularity, Jill offers practical advice on how to discern trustworthy practitioners and harness these tools for personal empowerment. A Compelling New Book: Jill's latest work, Guidance from the Universe: Hopeful Messages for Everyday Challenges, delivers actionable wisdom on universal topics like anger, forgiveness, grief, and abundance. Her book provides readers with tools to embrace self-love and navigate life's complexities with clarity. Empowering Insights for All: Whether it's learning to connect with the universe, finding hope amidst suffering, or shifting from hopelessness to joy, Jill's teachings resonate across diverse audiences. A conversation with Jill could explore: The moment she first connected with “Guidance” and how it transformed her life. Practical steps for listeners to tap into their intuition and receive messages from the universe. Her perspective on why metaphysics is experiencing a cultural resurgence. The powerful correlation she's observed between overcoming physical limitations and deep spiritual connection. In an interview with you, Jill Amy Sager can answer questions such as: How did you get started reading Tarot cards? You call the energy you channel “Guidance.” Why? And how did you get started channeling? How does “Guidance” appear to you? How can someone benefit from a Tarot or channeled reading? If someone wanted to learn how to receive messages from the Universe, the other side of the veil, how would you advise them to begin? Right now interest in metaphysics, especially Tarot, is experiencing a popularity like never before. Why do you think this has happened? What should someone look for when seeking a reading from a psychic, medium or channeler? In your book you refer to how being physically disabiled from birth shaped your life. Do you think there is a correlation between being physically disabled being able to channel? Many in the world are suffering, angry, or unhappy. How can someone make the change from feeling hopeless to feeling better or is that even possible? Why did you decide to write your book, “Guidance from the Universe: Hopeful Messages for Everyday Challenges.” What do you hope people take away from reading your book? If you were to pass along Guidance's wisdom, is there one thing you would tell us that you've learned that might be helpful? Jill's warmth, wisdom, and authenticity make her a standout voice in today's spiritual landscape. She'd love to bring her insights to your listeners and offer a live reading or answer audience questions to make the conversation even more engaging.

Larry Burkett often said that capitalism must be tempered by Christian love, compassion, and stewardship.Proponents of capitalism and free markets don't often express that concern, just as believers in social welfare rarely count the cost. Jim Jones joins us today to talk about a new way of looking at those ideas.Jim Jones is a Chartered Financial Analyst® (CFA®) and Certified Kingdom Advisor® (CKA®). He is also the author of Utopia Reimagined: An Allegory of Capital and Conscience.A Unique Approach to Biblical EconomicsUnlike typical finance books, Utopia Reimagined is a novel—a work of fiction designed to explore serious biblical and economic themes through story.Why fiction? Jesus often used storytelling to challenge people's assumptions and invite deeper reflection. From the Good Samaritan to the Prodigal Son, stories have the power to stick with us in ways data and arguments often can't. As G.K. Chesterton once quipped, “Novels are more true than science textbooks. Life is sometimes like a science textbook, but life is always a story.”The Journey of Alexander and PaulineThe novel follows two siblings—Alexander and Pauline—on a journey through contrasting societies, each representing different economic and political ideologies.Alexander, a gifted but oppressed peasant in 18th-century France, escapes a feudal system to explore new societal models. His journey takes him through a magical cave into Santosa—a society with socialist tendencies—and eventually to New York City, the heart of free-market capitalism. Along the way, Alexander wrestles with the tension between opportunity, freedom, and justice.Pauline's journey is more focused on the moral and cultural fabric of each society. Her lens offers readers a parallel exploration of what's right, just, and good—not only economically, but relationally and spiritually.Through these characters, readers are invited to explore how faith shapes our perspectives on power, wealth, justice, and human dignity. Some characters see everything through the lens of faith, while others struggle to integrate it or reject it altogether.The beauty of storytelling is that it doesn't just show you what people believe, but why they believe it. That builds compassion and opens the door to real understanding.What Does a Biblical Utopia Look Like?In the final chapters of the novel, Alexander and Pauline discover a society that reflects the fullness of God's Kingdom—a glimpse of the new heavens and the new earth. It's a world where work, community, economics, and leadership are all governed by Christ's nature: sacrificial love, justice, and peace.But how do we pursue this kind of utopia now?Real change begins not at a national or global level, but in our local Christian communities. Reflecting God's image means practicing agape love—self-sacrificing care for one another—in how we use our time, money, influence, and power. We do that in community, not alone.Bringing the Vision to LifeMore than just a novel, Utopia Reimagined is a tool for discipleship and transformation. It's a call to rethink how we live, give, work, and govern in light of God's design. Through this engaging allegory, Jim Jones invites believers to dream again—anchored in Scripture and empowered by the Spirit—to reflect the Kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven. That's why he has developed a discussion guide for churches, small groups, and communities who want to go deeper. It's available at utopiareimagined.com, where readers can also purchase the book or join a virtual conversation with Jim himself.And for a limited time, the Kindle edition is available for just $1.99.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm a landlord with a duplex and want to sell it in a year. I haven't rented the top unit for a year after a bad tenant experience.

Today's guest is Neil Mehta, founder of Greenoaks Capital. In 2012, aged 27, Neil left D.E. Shaw to start Greenoaks with his friend Benny Peretz. One of their first investments was in Coupang, a South Korean e-commerce company led by founder Bom Kim. Neil was so convinced of Coupang's potential that he invested 40% of their initial $50 million fund into the company—a bet that eventually returned about $8 billion. Over its first 13 years, Greenoaks has backed legendary companies like Figma, Wiz, Carvana, Stripe, Discord, Rippling, and Toast—generating over $13 billion in gross profits with a 33% net IRR. Henry Kravis, one of Neil's early investors, describes him as "extremely disciplined" with "exceptional timing" who has "gone against the tide many times." Greenoaks operates with remarkable concentration: just 55 core companies across nearly $15 billion in assets, managed by only nine investment professionals. Their approach reflects their singular pursuit: finding companies that will become a meaningful part of the S&P 500. In our wide-ranging conversation, Neil shares this mission along with his framework for identifying exceptional founders, his concept of "jaw-dropping customer experiences," and how his grandfather's gun shop in India shaped his appreciation for builders of all kinds.
