The Yaro Podcast

I've been wrestling with how AI is reshaping my business, and I'm not alone. After months of navigating this shift and countless conversations with fellow entrepreneurs, I've landed on one critical insight about surviving and thriving in this new landscape.

I'm juggling two very different lead generation strategies right now: a slow-burn content marketing play for my agency's new brand, and an experimental YouTube channel documenting business histories. After almost nine years building businesses through content, I've landed on a controversial opinion: YouTube is the only organic channel that actually compounds your effort anymore.

I just finished producing a deep dive on Grammarly's origin story for my Corp podcast, and I had to share what I learned. This Ukrainian company made a counterintuitive pivot that transformed them from a modest B2B business into a $13 billion giant with 40 million users.

I've been running ad campaigns again for my business, and I just discovered something that completely changed how I create ad graphics. Grok's new image generation tool has finally reached the point where I can duplicate any ad I see and adapt it for my own campaigns—without hiring a designer.

I've been creating an entire podcast called Corp using AI for everything: research, scripts, and voice cloning. But it's not autopilot. I curate heavily, run multiple iterations, and fill gaps myself. Here's what I learned from studying Sephora's origin story and why simple innovations matter more than you think.

I've been experimenting with AI voice cloning and content generation to create something I've wanted to make for years: a deep-dive podcast about company histories. After months of testing tools like Claude, Gemini, and ElevenLabs, I finally launched Corp—a side project where my AI clone tells the stories of billion-dollar companies.

I've been thinking about how our brains can't comprehend the massive scale of content, capital, and audiences online. But here's what I realized: those incomprehensible numbers are exactly why there's so much opportunity for your business. You don't need everyone—you just need your slice.

I've been sharing this productivity hack for twenty years, and it still works. In this episode, I break down why starting your day with a simple task like dishes creates momentum, and how understanding your energy patterns can transform your output. Plus, what tennis players taught me about peak performance.

I'm launching a new AI voice project, and the hardest part isn't the technology. It's figuring out which feedback actually matters. In this episode, I break down why early opinions from friends and family can mislead you, what metrics you should track instead, and how to stay motivated when nobody's paying attention yet.

I spent last week testing an AI tool that claimed to grow from zero to $6 million per year in three months. It failed spectacularly, charged me for services it never delivered, and reminded me of an uncomfortable truth: the viral success stories we obsess over are statistical outliers. Here's what actually works when you're building something real.
