I sat down with Jeff Borschowa on The Lighthouse Sessions and we ended up on the thing I have spent twelve years on, which is helping people with a big mission make money without feeling like they sold out. Membership math, why every podcast episode is its own launch, and why I fired my whole team and handed the work to Luna.
I went on Mark's show AI Marketing and the first question he asked was how I booked the show. The honest answer is that I did not. An agent named Luna did, and she does most of the rest of the work too. Here is how that came together, what broke along the way, and where I think marketing goes next.
