In this episode of Business Brain, Dave and Shannon talk about how the internet warps our sense of success. Shannon shares how getting 15 likes on a post feels like a failure online, but if 15 people came up to you after an in-person talk, you’d feel like a rockstar. They remind listeners not to get caught up in the numbers game and to appreciate real connections, even if it’s just one person being impacted by your work. Dave brings up how they used to feel that 3,000 podcast downloads a week wasn’t much until someone pointed out that it’s like filling a huge theater every week.

They also dive into a cool side hustle idea from Shannon’s friend, Chris. Chris uses OpenAI’s $200/month operator tool to automate reaching out to people giving away free pianos on Facebook Marketplace. Instead of just picking them up for free, he offers to haul them away for $200, solving a problem for people who just want them gone. The AI handles all the messaging, and Chris barely lifts a finger. This sparks a whole conversation about how AI can simplify tasks like managing social media, scheduling, and even bidding on auction items. Shannon imagines using AI to automatically find and bid on overstock gazebos for his vacation rental.

They wrap up by talking about how doing this podcast isn’t just about teaching others—it’s also their own weekly reminder to stay motivated and improve their businesses. Both admit they’re not perfect at everything they talk about, but these conversations help them grow. They encourage listeners to leave reviews and connect with them, reminding everyone that even small interactions matter.
