In this episode of Founders Future, with host Jae Encarnacion, we sit down with Aaron Hageman, founder of 75x Strategy and serial entrepreneur who scaled an HR tech company to a 2-billion-dollar run rate before selling to Walmart. Aaron shares his unconventional journey from teenage entrepreneur to fractional CEO, revealing how his "puzzle-solving" approach helps 7-9 figure businesses break through growth plateaus. He breaks down his signature 90-day advisory framework—alternating between 1:1 founder sessions and leadership team strategy meetings—and why defeating "Superman Syndrome" is the key to sustainable scaling.
Aaron pulls back the curtain on his boutique advisory model, explaining how he combines live events with AI-powered community building through his new "The Lab" program. He offers golden insights on financial literacy ("Learn to read a P&L like a second language") and why his sweet-spot clients are those stuck at the $8M revenue hump. For founders craving actionable scaling strategies, Aaron shares how he’s leveraging fractional CMOs and his "consigliere" mindset to help businesses systematically remove roadblocks—while keeping his own firm intentionally small but mighty.
