#2295 Ryan Carson: How AI does my marketing for me

<description>When YouTube kicked Pat Walls’ Starter Story channel off the platform, he spent a weekend getting Claude Code to build him a replacement. I wanted to see how it was done, so he walked me through it step-by-step.
Turns out it was a mistake and he’s back on YouTube, but the site he made was so good that it’s his company’s new homebase.

#2294 He Claude Code: Build Me a YouTube Replacement

<description>My friend created an AI engineering firm and every time I see him, he tells me how much his business is growing. So I asked him to tell me all about it in this interview.
This is the story of how Tarun Thummala created PressW, the Austin-based AI dev shop.

Instead of selling generic “AI transformation,” Tarun focuses on delivering specific workflow outcomes—often automating 90–95% of manual processes. Today, PressW generates over $2M in annual revenue by combining deep technical execution with a service-first approach to AI.&lt;/p&gt;

#2293 $2 million / year AI engineering firm

<description>Yevgeniy Matsay was a real estate broker who hated making cold calls. So he built an AI automation to do it for him.
It worked so well that he created an agency that created cold calling automations for other brokers.
Today he’s turning his automation service into Rozera, a cold calling SaaS for real estate brokers.
