  • Jeni Hott’s $10M Secret
    2025/08/19

    Think you need ads, funnels, or a massive social following to make millions online?

    Jeni Hott disagrees, and she’s proved it!

    She built a $10M+ business without ever showing her face, launching a course, or chasing clout. In fact, she avoided all of it—on purpose.

    In this episode, Jeni reveals:

    • How she made her first $60,000 off a blog without knowing it 💸
    • The anti-funnel system that kept working for 17+ years 🔄
    • Why going “invisible” can be the ultimate growth strategy 🕵️‍♀️
    • The hidden power of obsessively listening to your audience 👂
    • Her rule for keeping business fun—and making it last 🎯


    If you’re tired of being told to post more, sell louder, and hustle harder, this is your permission slip to do it your way—quietly, strategically, and with zero burnout.

    💥 Caution: May inspire you to delete your entire content calendar.

    📌 Drop “INVISIBLE” in the comments if this hit different.

  • I Lost Everything.. Then Built Apple's Best Podcast with Omar Zenhom
    2025/07/29

    Most people would kill to get Gary Vee on their podcast.
    Omar Zenhom did… and still barely scraped 400 downloads. His words?
    “That podcast was shit.”

    But instead of quitting, he pivoted. Leaned into his strength as a teacher. And built The $100 MBA Show—130 million downloads later, he’s still showing up three times a week, every week.

    In this episode, Omar breaks down:
    - Why his first show flopped (even with big-name guests)
    - The soda-on-the-boardwalk trick that jumpstarted his growth
    - What creators get wrong when trying to monetize
    - His no-BS strategy for building real momentum
    - How he bootstrapped a SaaS company and sold it (as a non-tech founder)
    If you’ve ever felt stuck with your content, burnt out on “expert advice,” or tempted to copy someone else’s style—this one’s a wake-up call wrapped in humor and honesty.

    🔥 Warning: May cause uncontrollable urges to start (or restart) your show the right way.

  • From 0 to 11K+ Subscribers - The Content Strategy That Works
    2025/06/10

    This episode is for:

    • Podcasters ready to make the jump to video
    • Entrepreneurs wanting to grow their brand with video
    • Content creators struggling to build a sustainable system
    • Creators tired of YouTube “hacks” that don’t work long-term
    • Anyone serious about building a brand

    This episode is a little different. Instead of a regular interview, this is a case study, a real behind-the-scenes experience when Omar Zenhom decided to take the “$100 MBA Show”—his audio-only podcast—to YouTube.

    He knew one thing: video is a different beast.

    For over 10 years, Omar built a wildly successful podcast with millions of downloads. And if that sounds like an exaggeration, go ahead and Google "top business podcasts" and see where his show ranks.

    That’s where my team at 20X Agency stepped in and took Omar from podcast-only to a full-fledged YouTube brand with a proud 11K subscribers (and counting), and scale his content on all major social media platforms without burning out!

    Key takeaways from this case study:

    • The YouTube shift: Why podcast and video audiences behave differently
    • Content strategy upgrades: How Omar refined his delivery for video
    • How to grow your audience while keeping your workload manageable
    • Omar didn’t rely on viral gimmicks. He built a streamlined content machine that works.


    If you’ve been looking to actually grow on Youtube, have a watch at this interview

  • 2k Ad Spend Turned $42k in Sales! (The ROI Secret for Coaches) | Sarah Greener
    2025/02/10

    This episode is best for:

    • Coaches drowning in inconsistency
    • People who dream of running a business from anywhere
    • Moms rebuilding after burnout
    • Those who hate vague marketing advice
    • Anyone sick of trading time for money

    ---

    This week, I sat down with Sarah Greener—a New Zealand-born, Thailand-based business coach who helps mompreneurs claw back their time and profits.

    We dug into her wild journey from running 9 businesses (and failing at most!) to scaling a coaching empire that lets her work less while earning more.

    Sarah’s “boring” systems let her work 3 days a week while her business earns cash. If you’re still “hoping” your content works, her $42K ad ROI story will hurt (in the best way).

    –-

    Key takeaways:

    • Effective Content Marketing: How Sarah 40X’d her Instagram DMs.
    • ROI or GTFO: The investment that turned $2k in ads into $42k in sales by using a simple system
    • Trust ≠ AI Avatars: Sarah’s techniques in filming content that 5X’d her engagement.

    Is it just me, or is the whole internet marketing game starting to feel a little soulless?

    We’re in luck because today, I'm talking with the legendary Taylor Welch.

    After his first company broke every record in the industry, he was on a non-stop upward trajectory, until a year ago, when his company faced scrutiny from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).

    Taylor has made millions, lost millions, and found something way more valuable along the way: his purpose.

    We're talking about the stuff most marketers are too afraid to touch.

    This episode is for you if:

    1. You're tired of the hustle-and-grind mentality and crave more meaning in your business.
    2. You're curious about the role of spirituality in entrepreneurship.
    3. You’re ready to show vulnerability in building a badass brand.

    We're talking about massive success, FTC investigations against his business, and a spiritual awakening that changed everything for him.

    Taylor shares lots about his wild ride, and trust me, you won't want to miss this.

  • Turning Cringe into Cash | Rachel Pedersen
    2024/12/23

    I don’t often have a repeat guest on my podcast, but when I do… it’s someone truly EPIC and Rachel Pedersen definitely qualifies.

    Rachel has the ability to turn the stuff you want to hide into viral content. This, along with her no-nonsense practical tips on content creation earned her the title of the “Queen of Social Media”.

    In our conversation, we talk about the stuff nobody tells you: cringy moments, flops, and what it takes to build an 8-figure business without losing your mind (or sense of humor).

    Rachel and I covered topics like the realities of coaching and agency work, & she even gave me a hint on what’s coming up next for her.

    Rachel’s truly not just “building a business.” She’s creating movements, challenging norms, and proving that the best success stories are the messy ones.

    Topics include:

    🤯 Rachel’s unfiltered journey from $15/hour gigs to $100K+ contracts.

    🧠 Why sharing your awkward truth is the ultimate connection hack.

    🔥 Her bold move to learn coding and take down overpriced software giants.

    Rachel doesn’t play small, and this chat is a wake-up call for anyone tired of fake hype and shortcut promises.

    Stay till the end for Rachel’s tactical breakdown on creating an insane amount of content without burning out.

    2024/12/16

    This week, I'm sitting down with Jared Mortensen, who's made a career leap that's as surprising as it is inspiring.

    Jared’s gone from crunching numbers and optimizing supply chains for Fortune 500 giants like Boeing, Textron, and Koch Industries to disrupt a different kind of industry – men's underwear.

    As the Founder of Real Men Apparel Company (RMAC), Jared is on a mission to bring inclusive sizing and actual comfort to the world of men’s underwear.

    We're talking about a lot more than just fabric and stitching, guys. This is also about finding your edge, overcoming risks, and learning how to grow smart, not fast.

    Plus, he’s sharing his huge success on TikTok and how he did it.

    Here's a sneak peek of what's inside:

    • Why size inclusivity in men’s underwear is a BIG deal (literally!)
    • The "twig to berry ratio" and why it matters
    • Jared’s top reasons: why TikTok & why now

    So get comfortable and hit that play button. This episode with Jared will inspire you to shake things up and show you that your “crazy wild idea” might be your next big hit.
