Amaze CEO Aaron Day reveals how his company built a revenue pipeline bigger than their entire projection in just one week.
The episode opens with hosts Sully and Costa introducing the show from Lock 100 studios in Southern California. They first interview Aaron Day, CEO of Amaze, who discusses the company's busy March, including trips to Nashville for country radio seminars and partnerships with a major talent management firm. Day explains Amaze's work in the music vertical, helping artists monetize through merch sales, citing low streaming payouts on platforms like Spotify. He announces the upcoming rollout of Moments AI, an AI-powered commerce engine that will migrate over 13 million creators starting soon. Day also describes the 'flywheel' effect with distribution partners like L.A. Times Publishing, which has 100 million monthly viewers. The second segment features Morgan Lekstrom, co-founder of StreamX, who introduces GLDY, a tokenized gold product that offers a 3.5% yield through gold leasing, contrasting with traditional ETFs that charge fees. Lekstrom explains the product's security compliance and institutional partnerships. The third segment includes Trey Wasser, CEO of Dryden Gold, who talks about gold market trends, including institutional buying and central bank activity. He discusses Dryden's exploration in Northwest Ontario, a stable jurisdiction, and a strategic investment from Centera Gold. Wasser also mentions a documentary in development about mining history, aiming to appeal to young geologists. The episode concludes with teasers for future shows.
