Most salespeople are still using AI one prompt at a time. - Ask. - Answer. - Copy. - Paste. - Repeat.  Useful? Sure... But if that's all you're doing with ChatGPT, you're leaving most of the value on the table. The bigger opportunity isn't asking AI to write one more email. It's connecting AI to the places where your sales context already lives: email, calendar, CRM, Drive, Slack, meeting transcripts, and delegating entire workflows instead of isolated tasks. That was the experiment in a recent Predictable Revenue Podcast episode with Collin Stewart and Alex Miora, GTM at OpenAI. Instead of another conversation about what AI might do for sales someday, they built around three practical workflows: a current deals dashboard, a Follow-Up Friday system, and living account plans. Follow along with this format and create your own system with AI: https://predictable.fm/ai-sales-dashboard Highlights include:  Current state of AI tools and knowledge worker use cases (02:24), Building a current deals dashboard without a CRM (07:05), Multi-threading and voice mode for real-time management (25:17), Automating follow-up workflows and account plans (30:05), Transforming sales and customer engagement with AI (40:36), and more...

People can be interested without being ready to buy, they can agree to a proof of concept without having a clear path to production, they can praise the product without becoming the kind of customer who helps the company grow. That distinction was at the center of Collin Stewart's conversation with Ankur Patel, founder and CEO of Multimodal, on the Predictable Revenue Podcast. Multimodal builds AI for document-heavy, decision-heavy workflows in financial services, and Ankur's story is useful because it shows how easy it is to mistake activity for traction. Highlights include: Identifying the Niche (02:01), Customer Development and Validation (04:36), Pricing Strategy and First Customer (10:23), Evolving Market Strategies (17:46), Recognizing Product-Market Fit (22:50), and more...

On this episode of the Predictable Revenue Podcast, Collin Stewart sat down once again with SnapBar founder Sam Eitzen, this time to talk about the kind of founder journey that rarely unfolds in a straight line. SnapBar didn't move from one clear business model to the next. It went from physical photo booths to a pandemic-era corporate-gifting business to virtual experiences, and then to the software platform the company is building today. Along the way, the conversation touched on survival, customer demand, timing, founder instinct, and the uncomfortable reality that most pivots only make sense once you're already through them. It's a familiar story for a lot of founders: the market changes, the original plan starts to crack, and the next version of the business has to be figured out in motion. Highlights include: Navigating Business Challenges During the Pandemic (04:25), Innovative Solutions for Small Businesses (08:00), The Shift to Virtual Events (09:58), The Evolution of Snap Bar (13:20), and more...

Product-market fit is often treated like a switch: either you have it, or you do not. But in reality, it tends to behave more like a spectrum. A company can have early traction, real customer interest, and even paying users, and still not be in the market where the fit is strongest. That was one of the most useful ideas in Collin Stewart's conversation with Thomas Alflen, co-founder of Oddity.ai, on the Predictable Revenue Podcast. As Thomas put it, product-market fit did not feel binary in practice. It felt stronger in some markets than in others. And that is the real lesson for founders: early signs of demand matter, but they are not the finish line.  The job is to keep testing where the problem is clearest, where customers feel it most urgently, and where your solution becomes easier to repeat and scale. Highlights include: Early Market Exploration (13:30), Impact of COVID-19 on Business and Market Shift (17:24), Market Selection Criteria and Variables (21:54), Recognizing Product-Market Fit and Its Spectrum (24:56), and more...

In this Predictable Revenue Podcast episode, Harvard senior lecturer and Unlikely Entrepreneurs author Lou Shipley puts language to that mistake with a simple idea: "the problem with the problem." His point is straightforward: A company does not become real because it raised money, built a product, or hired a team. It becomes real when it solves a problem people care enough about to act on. Before founders think about scaling sales, they need to answer a harder question first: Is this problem actually worth building a company around? Highlights include: Transitioning from Side Hustle to Business (05:16), Transitioning to a Tech Company (10:52), Navigating Stress as a Founder (15:15), Redefining Ambition and Work-Life Balance (27:56), and more...

On this episode of the Predictable Revenue Podcast, Collin Stewart sat down with Sam Eitzen, co-founder of Snapbar, to unpack a startup story that did not begin with a polished strategy or a deliberate plan to build a company. It began with a signal from the market. That is what makes Snapbar's story so useful for startup founders, bootstrapped operators, and B2B growth leaders. Highlights include: Transitioning from Side Hustle to Business (05:16), Transitioning to a Tech Company (10:52), Navigating Stress as a Founder (15:15), Redefining Ambition and Work-Life Balance (27:56), And more...

On the Predictable Revenue Podcast, Collin Stewart sat down with Gianluca Ferremi, CEO and Co-founder of WisePath, to unpack a deceptively simple question: why do so many hires fail?  Gianluca's answer challenges the default narrative. Nearly half of new hires don't work out, and most failures have nothing to do with technical ability. This points to a deeper issue: It's not a talent problem, it's a measurement problem. Because if you can't measure how people actually behave, you can't predict how they'll perform. Highlights include: The Origin of WisePath (13:55), Market Validation and Customer Adoption (25:53), First Customers and Market Entry Strategy (27:53), And more...

Most conversations about product-market fit stay abstract. This one didn't. In this episode of the Predictable Revenue podcast, host Collin Stewart sat down with Olga Voigt, co-founder of Zibble AI, to break down what it actually takes to build and sell a product in today's market, especially in AI. What emerged was an entirely different lens: focus on value first, and let the product catch up. Highlights include: Building a Team of Experts (06:51), Understanding Value Market Fit (08:41), Transitioning from Services to Product (13:00), Gathering Feedback and Iteration (16:37), and more...

On this episode of the Predictable Revenue Podcast, Collin Stewart sits down with Sridhar Uyyala from TensorLinks to walk through what finding product-market fit actually looks like in the wild: messy, slow, and full of false starts. This conversation breaks down that journey, not to retell it, but to show where founders actually go wrong, and why most "good ideas" fail long before the market is ready for them. Highlights include: Origin and AI Inspiration (08:18), Initial Ideas and Challenges Faced (10:15), Finding the First Customer and Validation (13:02), Next Customers and Growth Strategies (18:10), and more...

On the Predictable Revenue Podcast, Collin Stewart sat down with Gavin McNamara to unpack his product-market fit journey. It didn't start with a clear idea or a validated market. It started with messy consulting work, a personal problem, and a series of small signals that only made sense in hindsight. That's the reality most founders don't hear. Product-market fit isn't a single moment where everything clicks. It's something you work toward by following real problems, real customers, and narrowing in on what actually works. This is what that process actually looks like. Highlights include: Navigating the Entrepreneurial Roller Coaster (08:09), Finding Initial Customers (11:24), From B2C to B2B: Expanding Horizons (19:19), The Moment of Validation (32:19), And more...

Many startups chase product-market fit as if it's a moment of discovery. But for deep-tech founders, the journey is often much longer.  Product-market fit doesn't appear overnight. It's built through years of research, experimentation, and conversations with customers. Before founding the company, Asad Tirmizi spent 14 years researching robotics systems, developing the technical foundations that would eventually become the company's product. What started as academic research later evolved into a commercial solution for manufacturers. Highlighst include: Impact of Robotics on Jobs and Industries (03:52), Transitioning from Research to Entrepreneurship (07:11), Validating the Business Idea (11:15), Finding the First Customer (17:02), Understanding Value Creation (27:46), And more...
