My First Million: How 3 Founders Built $8M, $10M, and $40M Businesses

Three founders, three radically different businesses, and one common playbook for growth.

You’ll learn how a robot company shipped 1,000 units and used computer vision to cut kitchen time, how a candy brand grew through community and unconventional content instead of ads, and how dental software can improve collections by fixing insurance verification and claims delays. The episode also highlights key lessons on product storytelling, customer rituals, and solving real economic pain with technology, business model discipline, and strong distribution.
