I’ve been quietly building something new. And it changes everything. For the past few months, my brother and I have been heads down. Researching. Testing. Building. Because something BIG is happening in marketing right now—and most people aren’t ready for it. The future of marketing isn’t about ranking on Google anymore. It’s about being remembered by AI.

Because things will go sideways. In high-growth environments, most people can lead when everything's working. But when...
There’s a certain kind of person I tend to put on a pedestal. The accomplished investor. The seasoned founder. The “visionary” executive with a track record I admire. And when I do that, when I hand them that power, something strange happens... I stop listening to myself. I second-guess every word, every pitch, every email I send.
