Every Founder has a story to tell and by telling that story in a compelling way, they can give their company an outsized advantage and the leg up they need in order to grow.
The founder of multiple companies and a veritable thought leader in his own right, Scott Albro, joins Hosts Craig Rosenberg and Matt Amundson, for a rollicking romp through the big AI questions now getting asked, the fundamentals for building a successful founder brand, and how to create high-quality content that is worthy of your buyers’ time and attention.
The crew dives into an intriguing debate over whether AI Co-Pilots or multitudinous AI Agents will win out in the future as AI is integrated into more go-to-market jobs and processes. Scott shares his three-part framework for helping founders tell compelling stories and everyone, including Sam, shares their favorite examples of successful founder brands.
Also, Craig is complimented on his militaristic sleeping abilities and Matt begins the long journey to recovery by admitting to his reprehensible road rage.
