  • This One AI Prompt Could Land You a $15K Client w/ Sam | Ep. #157
    This is part one of a two-part episode, keep an eye out for part two dropping next week. I sat down with Sam Thompson and we went deep on how we're using the new ChatGPT memory update - from self-reflection prompts to turning it into a personal coach and therapist. Sam shared some killer use cases like a CIA-style report on himself and even a custom SWOT analysis.Then we riffed on turning AI-generated images into real businesses. Sam told the story of a viral tweet he had about creating custom coloring books with ChatGPT, and we brainstormed dozens of B2B and home services ideas—like AI-powered landscaping mockups, remodeling postcards, and photo-personalized marketing that feels like magic.You can find Sam on Twitter at @ImSamThompson and check out what he's building at unlimitedcontent.com.Timestamps below.

    I sat down with Shannon Jean, who's built and sold over 10 companies, and we talked all about the art of reselling. He shared how he made $557K net profit selling luxury handbags, and why building systems is the real game—no matter what category you're in.We covered how he connects directly with eBay and Poshmark execs to avoid account issues, how he uses liquidation sites like B-Stock, and why category only matters 30%—the rest is all systems and execution.Shannon also dropped gold on customer service, like his “two tokens” method to de-escalate unhappy buyers, and how flipping industrial gear or niche apparel can create huge upside if you know how to sell it right.Check out his $5 mastermind at businessbrain.show or follow him on X: @ShannonJean.Timestamps below.

    HoldCo Bros are back! In this episode, Nik and I talk about the exciting advancements of ChatGPT 4.0 image generation, highlighting its ability to now edit pictures and create incredibly realistic AI images. We brainstormed potential business ideas leveraging this new technology, then we discussed the fundamentals of business success, where Nik introduced his framework emphasizing competitive advantage within idea and execution (grit, distribution, fulfillment, knowledge).
