    A series of miracles (with Jason Cohen)

    Jason Cohen (founder of WP Engine) joined as a surprise guest. We got into his writing process, why "distribution is the new moat" is either not new or not true, what actually counts as a moat (Basecamp, Linear, Lemon Squeezy), and his framework for funnels: the quality of who enters the top matters more than every other step combined. Jason's new book Hidden Multipliers is available for preorder.

    Marinating in the sauce

    SaaS life! How do you deal with the daily sales anxiety? Brian recounts a major March spike from viral YouTube, a full site redesign and repositioning, and the fear of launches falling flat, while Justin describes simplifying Transistor’s funnel and tracking daily signups. We debate when to “double down on what’s working” versus making scary directional changes, emphasizing founder gut, credibility with teams, and remote-team alignment. On distribution, they argue product and marketing are linked,  and “hand-to-hand combat” on channels like Reddit, discuss ads and YouTube as ongoing systems, and highlight social proof via reviews (including Jordan’s use of Senja). Jordan shares using Claude to investigate the Allbirds deal and leverage personal networks to reach key deal participants, reinforcing founder curiosity and agency.  Timestamps:00:00 Welcome00:48 April Revenue Whiplash02:11 Builder Methods Relaunch Fears04:48 Daily Sales Mood Swings05:59 Simplifying the Funnel12:43 Trusting Founder Gut27:21 Distribution in the AI Era35:10 Practical GEO and Reddit Tactics40:55 Customer Culture and Reviews43:47 Engineering Social Proof51:38 AI Investigates Allbirds Deal01:10:49 Churn Through Weird Lens01:15:59 Weekend Wrap And Skate Talk YOU ARE THE PANEL – send us your thoughts 🗣️ 🎤 Send us an audio or video message 📧 Email us: panelpodcastshow@gmail.com 📺 Leave a comment on YouTube 🦋 Reply on Bluesky Links mentioned in this episode: Senja
