Content Is Profit

For a few weeks now, my coffee shop has been calling me LuisDa. My wife still refuses (we're working on it... haha!). That little name experiment came from Bart and Sunny Miller. They're back on Content Is Profit with their new book, Magnetic On Demand... and Fonzi's back too! Today we unpack why a cop in flip-flops can't get anyone out of a room, how a 10-year-old who couldn't break a board finally broke it, and what Adele and Beyoncé know about stage fright that most entrepreneurs don't. Bart even runs the name test on Fonzi live... and you can watch his whole body change. Plus... the question everyone asks. If you change how you show up, are you still being authentic? If you know there's a bigger version of you in there and you can't seem to let it out... this one's for you. 👉 Join us inside Business Creator Club: http://www.businesscreator.club/Links mentioned in this episode: Bart & Sunny (programs, podcast, and more): https://bartandsunny.com/ Magnetic On Demand (the book): https://magneticondemand.com/ Sunny's free identity app: (link coming from Bart & Sunny) Business Creator Club: https://www.businesscreator.club/

My brother calls himself an AI hater. We run a content company that uses AI every single day in multiple parts of the process. So when Fonzi said there's one way to use AI that's the fastest way to lose respect... I had to sit with it. (I might have been the guy he was talking about haha!) Today we unpack what we learned speaking at HubSpot's Unbound, the one word that defined the whole event, and where the real line is between using AI and losing yourself to it. Plus... why 300+ people scanned our playbook and we weren't ready, how I built my own app in a couple hours, and why you're probably further ahead on AI than you think.

Everybody can build with AI now. So why does every follow-up email in your inbox sound exactly the same? Fonzi and I recorded this one live at HubSpot's UNBOUND conference, right after the morning keynote. The big theme? Trust. We're moving fast with AI... but do we actually trust what it gives us? We break down what HubSpot showed (including a CRM that updates itself), the three pieces you need to get real outcomes from AI, and the risks nobody's saying out loud. Fonzie explains why AI gets you to a 6 and a skilled human gets it to a 10. I share why I think you have to adopt this now... and the one friction point I'd start with this week. Plus: why Fonzi deletes almost every AI email he gets, and why our "not so formal" English is actually an asset. 👉 Grab the free Context Document Starter Kit (and every other lead magnet) inside the Value Vault: http://www.businesscreator.club/

There's one sentence that explains why people buy from some creators... and completely ignore others.

It's not a funnel. It's not a hook formula. It's one sentence, and it's been sitting in a book since way before any of us started posting.

Fonzi brought it to me on a Friday afternoon and would not tell me what it was ahead of time (which, if you know him, is not normal).

Five parts. We're breaking down every single one.

And by the end you're going to know exactly what's missing from your messaging... and why people keep saying "this is great" and then never buying.

Let's go.

Lindsay Rosenthal has 50,000 followers on LinkedIn and makes content alongside OpenAI, HubSpot, Atlassian, Descript, and LinkedIn itself. So when she told us she currently uses zero AI for her ideas... and stopped using it for her scripts and copy entirely... we stopped the conversation and made her explain. What she said next is the whole episode. There's a specific reason AI can make you competent and almost never makes you the best, and once you hear it you can't unhear it. We also got into the exact 30-day plan for someone sitting at 500 followers right now, why commenting is the most underrated sales activity on the internet, whether you should tell people you used AI, and the story of a guy who built a business on AI avatars and shut it down after a conference.

Your content is working. Your profile is not. Somebody watches your video. They like what you said. They tap your name... and then they decide in about three seconds whether you are worth their time. Most experts never find out what happens in those three seconds. This week Fonzie got on a call with a guy who is genuinely good at what he does. Real students. Real sales. Real proof behind him. His profile said almost none of it, and he had no idea he was losing people because of it. He has been leaking buyers for years without knowing. So we broke the whole thing down on the show. What a prospect is actually looking for when they land on you. Why most profiles fail that test without the owner ever noticing. And how long it really takes to fix (a lot less than you think). There is a 30 second exercise in the middle of this one. Grab your phone before you hit play. 👉 www.businesscreator.club

Fonzi sent me a text on his drive home. One line. "The reason we create content is to create trust. Trust generates demand." And that text turned into this whole episode. Because here's what most people get wrong... they think their content isn't working because the hook was weak. Or the framework was off. Or the template didn't convert. It's not that. There are three things underneath every piece of content that actually decides whether someone believes you. Miss one and it doesn't matter how good your edit is. Hit all three consistently and people show up to the call already ready to work with you. We break down all three in this one, plus how to run your existing content through it like a filter and see exactly where you're leaking trust.

Fonzie is back. And he came back with the thing every creator feels but nobody says out loud... "I already posted about this." You wake up. You know you have to publish. The idea shows up. And then that voice: wait, I said this already. It's an exhausting loop, and it's the reason most people quit before the content ever works. Here's what we get into: it started with a guitar lesson. Fonzie told his teacher he keeps falling into the same riff. The answer he got flipped the whole thing, and it connects straight back to one of the first phrases we ever coined on this show. Then we break down three ways to deliver the same message without burning out. Customer journey. Angles. Formats. Plus the real client ad we reviewed this week, the one metric that actually matters (it is not views), and the part nobody talks about... whether you and your team actually enjoy any of this.

Not that long ago, if you wanted to experience something creative... a song, a video, a piece of art... you had to wait for someone else to make it. You were a consumer. Today, that flipped. If you can imagine it, you can create it.

In this one I share the moment it clicked for me... a song that made my in-laws cry at their kitchen table, an affirmation track my kids now beg for in the car every single morning, and a soccer song my boys dreamed up in about five minutes. Then I get into what this actually means for your business... why creativity matters more now than it ever has, how the gap between "I have an idea" and "I made the thing" basically disappeared, and the 70% rule that changes the math on content forever.

And stick around till the very end. Because there's a surprise buried in this episode that could save you thousands of dollars... and honestly, you're not going to believe it until you hear it.

This morning I woke up to a flood of comments on our Football Show. Some were laughing with us. Some were insulting my accent, my English, my opinion on a soccer game.

And here's the part that doesn't make sense... that same show just crossed 100,000 views in 30 days.

The algorithm doesn't know the difference between love and hate. It only sees engagement.

For 400-plus episodes of Content Is Profit, I played it safe. Stayed in the middle. Meshed with everybody. This episode is about what happened when I stopped... and the fear that keeps most people from ever hitting publish.

I break down the two kinds of comments (and why your fear can't tell them apart), three reasons the hate is actually good for your business, and five things you can do to keep creating true to your message... even when your stomach drops.

Be you. Put it out there. The negative always comes... but so does the good.

00:00 The fear that stops people from publishing 00:37 Why this is the #1 reason people never start 01:14 What I woke up to on the Football Show 02:22 100K views in 30 days... love vs hate is the same to the algorithm 03:02 400+ safe episodes, and why the middle never stands out 04:08 If you have a strong message, share it 04:48 The two kinds of comments (and why fear can't sort them) 05:54 They insulted my accent and my English 06:31 Belief 1 — reactions are the map 07:11 Belief 2 — if a comment shakes you, you didn't fully believe it 08:16 Belief 3 — staying true is a magnet AND a repellent 08:56 The fitness studio story (the angry ones were the cheaters) 10:37 How to actually do it... 5 moves 10:55 Move 1 — desensitize by reps, not by thinking 12:24 Move 2 — decide what you stand for before you publish 12:36 "It's called soccer." "No... it's football." 14:16 Move 3 — stop trying to be liked by everybody 15:18 Move 4 — read comments as data, not verdicts 16:52 Move 5 — don't take the hits alone 18:08 What's possible — stop watering down your message 19:06 The AI example — talk to the people you actually want 19:54 Found through the noise... they become superfans 20:44 Tied to your mission (something big we haven't announced) 21:18 Be you. Put it out there.

We ran a daily podcast for 12 days straight... and the numbers genuinely surprised me.

In this behind-the-scenes solo, I open up the actual dashboard on our newest passion project (a daily soccer show) and walk through what 12 days of high-volume content really did... on YouTube, with a budget most people would laugh at.

Then I get to the question everybody keeps asking me: can you grow a show fast without spending a fortune on ads?

The answer is yes. But there are two ways to pay for it... and most creators only ever try one.

I break down the paid move we tested first (it costs way less than you think), the four organic plays that have quietly grown this show for years, and the one mindset shift that changes how you look at every piece of content you publish.

If you've ever felt like you're posting into the void... this one's for you.

This week I did something I've been telling people to do for years but had been too comfortable to try myself. I pushed for volume. A daily podcast. Ten clips a day. Twenty pieces of content across every platform. The kind of output that used to take my team six hours and three people.

So we ran an audit, rebuilt the entire thing with AI, and got it down to something I can run from the sideline of my kid's soccer practice.

In this episode I get into why we did it, the system we built, the tools we actually use, the problem we hit (one of them involves Messi and Ronaldo), and the early numbers that genuinely surprised me.

If you've been creating and not getting the results you want... this is the audit conversation you've been avoiding.

A creator just did almost a billion views in 30 days. One month. I had to put my phone down.

But the number isn't the story. The story is what she built behind it... and the second I understood it, I saw the exact roadmap for what we're doing with The Football Show during the World Cup.

In this one I break down how Jenny Hoyos rebranded an 11-million-subscriber channel, why her views had to crater before they exploded, and the two moves that actually drive growth like this (most people only try the first one... and torch their team doing it).

Plus the soccer vlogger who posts a full video an hour after the final whistle, the Six Levers question we run almost every week inside Business Creator Club, and the volume experiment I just texted my team about (I'm a little nervous).

I've been away a few days... and there's a reason I had to come back and tell you about.

The first real event Fonzie and I ever drove to, we went for one thing: customers.

We came home with zero. I almost called it a complete waste.

What I didn't know yet was that the "failed" event would end up starting this entire podcast.

In this one I break down the three phases of live events every entrepreneur moves through... and how to know exactly which one you're in right now. Then I give you the exact move we use to walk out of any room with relationships that actually turn into business (including the one trick that works 99% of the time, and the follow-up step almost nobody does).

I just got back from the most significant event I've ever attended. It unlocked something I wasn't expecting.

Most people quit their podcast right before it starts working. Not because the content was bad… because they couldn't see the compounding happening under the surface. Today we break down the one thing that has shaped everything BIZBROS has built... endurance. From three seasons of the 45 Live challenge to 700+ episodes of Content Is Profit, to $1M+ in services sold through relationships that started with a single conversation. But here's what took too long to learn: patience alone isn't the strategy. Content builds trust. Outreach closes deals. Run both engines at the same time… and your content becomes a real business tool, not just a brand builder. You'll hear real stories from this week: a studio referral that became a meeting, a cold Google call that became a closed deal, and a doctor on X who attracted the attention of Mark Cuban just by staying authentic and consistent.

Last week we said trust gets them to the door. Today we're talking about what gets them through. In Part 2 of this series, Luis and Fonzie crack open a framework that has helped them launch the podcast, sign clients in the studio, and quietly scale a community. Three beliefs your audience needs to hold before they ever say yes... and most creators are addressing zero of them. Or worse, the wrong one. This is the one that uses an organic milk analogy you'll think about every time you walk into a grocery store. The one with the woman who showed up to the studio with 52 episode outlines and froze the moment the cameras turned on. The one where Luis admits he used to lose deals because he was trying too hard to impress people. If you've been creating content and watching prospects say "I love what you do" and then ghost you on the call... this is the episode that explains why. Stick around for the close. There's a story about a lawyer who came to BCC office hours one Friday and sold a $5,000 package the next week. 👉 Come hang with us inside Business Creator Club: www.businesscreator.club

Chapters: 00:00 Recap of Part 1 (trust = clarity + certainty) 01:00 Pablo from JWB hit episode 500 (the consistency story) 03:00 Why do people who trust you still not buy? 04:00 Trust gets them to the door. Belief gets them through. 05:30 Belief 1 — Vehicle (does the thing actually work?) 06:30 The "first mentor" principle (describe the problem, win the sale) 08:00 Fit-to-Fat-to-Fit (the show-and-tell that built a brand) 10:00 What to do if you don't have case studies yet 12:00 The AI prompt example (vehicle proof through quick wins) 13:30 Belief 2 — Internal (can I actually do this?) 14:00 The Organic Milk Test 16:00 The 52 outlines lady (when internal belief shortcircuits) 19:00 The infomercial tape example (vehicle + internal in one) 20:00 The fractional team demo confession (when Luis was over-showing) 21:30 Belief 3 — External (will the world let me?) 22:30 The 200% organic milk price moment 24:00 How testimonials handle the external belief 25:30 Sponsor Magnet (the studio's external-belief fix for podcast budgets) 26:30 The 3-part content self-audit 27:30 DM us your audit (and stop sending Fonzie memes) 28:30 Active lead magnets in BCC + the lawyer who sold $5K

Today we ended up cracking open one of the most misunderstood ideas in content. Most entrepreneurs hear "you need 12 touchpoints to convert someone" and assume they need 12 platforms, 12 months, 12 thousand pieces of content. That's the wrong math. And it's why so many people are stuck in long sales cycles, posting consistently, and still not closing. Today we break down the formula they actually use with high-ticket clients (and lately inside Business Creator Club) to compress trust from months to days. Three levers. One self-audit you can run on your last 10 pieces of content this week. And the one thing brands are now spending real money to prove... that most creators are getting completely wrong. Plus a $1M/month referral business with no funnel, why your favorite gurus might be teaching you the wrong move, and the moment Fonzie drops a closing line that's going to make a few people uncomfortable.Stick around for the end... Episode 645 next goes one layer deeper into the three beliefs your audience needs to hold before they ever buy.

You've been using AI for your content. And the output still feels... off. Not broken. Just generic. Like someone decent wrote it… someone who's never actually met you.

Here's what nobody tells you: the AI isn't the problem. You've never actually introduced yourself to it.

In this episode (pulled directly from a live Q&A inside Business Creator Club) I answer the three questions I keep hearing from entrepreneurs trying to build smarter content systems.

Why does AI output feel so generic? When do you start building AI systems? And what happens when your tool disappears overnight?

Three frameworks. Marketing. Production. Brand.

And at the end (drum roll please) the exact prompt to build your Board of Advisors Agent. An AI that knows your business and challenges your decisions like a real board would.

22 minutes. Let's go.

Most people are using AI tools the wrong way — and it's not their fault. They're doing everything right: writing the prompts, using the tools, following the tutorials. But the output still sounds generic. Off-brand. Close, but not quite them.

Here's the truth: the AI isn't broken. The foundation is missing.

In this episode, I break down exactly what a context document is, why it's the single most important thing you can build for your business right now, and how to get your first version done in a single conversation.

I also share what happened when I built mine — and what surfaced that I didn't expect.

By the end of this episode, you'll know what to build, why it works, and you'll have a free starter prompt waiting in the show notes to get your V1 done today.

AI is everywhere now, but here’s the hard truth:

Many entrepreneurs and content creators aren’t making money with it.

This isn’t because the tools don’t work. It’s often because they’re used incorrectly.

In this episode, we share insights from real-world AI use. We cover a few key elements from early machine learning in 2011 to the deep learning breakthrough, and the ChatGPT moment that changed everything.

More importantly, we explain what this means for YOU:

• Why having the best tools doesn’t guarantee results (and what does)
• The big shift from “building from scratch” to “using what exists”
• How top performers use AI to boost speed, output, and revenue
• The hidden gap between access and skill that holds many back
• How to approach “build vs buy” in your content and business to maximize profit

This isn’t a technical guide. It’s a strategic playbook.

The real opportunity isn’t just AI…

It’s learning to turn AI into a system that: → Attracts attention → Builds trust → Converts into revenue consistently

If you’re a creator, founder, or operator looking to grow your brand, scale your content, or monetize faster—this episode offers the clarity and edge you need.
