Gratcast: Productive Procrastination

This long overdue episode has a lot of ground to cover. I procrastinated in doing the podcast and newsletter this month but with good reason and a slight setback that made no sense.

The deck that was an echo of the past got rightfully roasted and resulted in a breakthrough. At the same time the Hustle Fund released an excellent e-book about fundraising and deck design. I found the key people needed to execute all of our marketing, branding and engineering goals for 2024, now it’s just a matter of getting them the resources they need to execute.

Hallowed Be Thy Name is now available anywhere that sells online books. Do a review and either send it to me or a link to it and we’ll pay you $25 dollars. The next comedy show is still in the works, material is ready, I just need to find the time to shoot and edit.

The money landscape and how I want to see regular people see huge ROI’s off our vision rather than deep pocket VC’s. Tested ads and conversion tracking turned out to be a real pain in the ass. Started using and toying with AI a little more recently, I made something that has me pretty giddy about the near future with programs like Sora on the horizon.
