The Unscheduled CEO

Hey everyone, A quick iPhone voicenote for you this week. I promise you that 99.9% of people using LinkedIn to grow their audience and get clients are doing it wrong. They might be getting engagement, but nobody’s reaching out to work with them, nobodies really making money. I am. Here’s how I do it. Cheers,Jonathan This is a public episode.

Hey everyone, You know those big life decisions like when to quit a job, whether to buy a house or the painful “to stay or go” decision in relationships? These kinds of decisions rarely have a clear answer and can cause a massive dilemma. Here’s my take on how to make these decisions feel easier. Cheers,Jonathan P.S. it’s www.unscheduledceo.com now! This is a public episode. If you would like to d...

Hey everyone, For the last 6 years i’ve spent millions on experiments in the pursuit of making AJ&Smart more “scalable” and “sellable”. 99% of them failed and we lost money and momentum. Here’s what I learned and why we’re growing again without scaling. Cheers,Jonathan P.S. I’m back. This is a public episode.

Hey hey! As i’m recording this, a funnel I launched with my team on Wednesday has generated over 100 high-quality call bookings and over $220K in revenue. It’s only been 3 days since I switched it on. In this episode I talk about the behind-the-scenes of a brand new, hyper-successful funnel! You can see the funnel right here: book.facilitator.com A lot to unpack in this episode. Cheers,Jonathan P....

HEY! Ok, I recorded another episode even though I keep saying i’m taking a break. It’s too exciting!!!! Today I had Alen, a business partner, on the podcast to talk about how we're actually using AI tools in our businesses. This was only the second time I've had a guest on the show, but I figured after my AI wake-up call episode, it made sense to dig deeper with someone who's been using this stuff...

Hey friends, I just got back from San Francisco, and holy s**t, I need to write this down before I forget the intensity of what I'm feeling right now. For the past year, I've been in the "AI is cool, but whatever" camp. I mean, I figured it would eventually matter, but not enough to reshape how I run my business today . That mindset is completely gone now. Like, completely. After a week of non-sto...

OOPSIE, i’m back early from my sabbatical… Imagine if you could pay for the life you wanted WITHOUT leaving it up to “let’s see how this year goes” or being constantly at the whims of the shaky economy?

I didn’t really want to believe that ADHD was making my life worse. I thought ADHD was a superpower… that it wasn’t really a “real” problem. I’m starting to think I was very VERY wrong, and that’s what this week’s episode is about. Summer Camp 2025 Info: * Coming to Summer Camp? Tickets are here! * Book a call with Laura from my team to see if Summer Camp 2025 is for you! * Sales close Friday 28th...

This is a call recording of Jason Fried, CEO of Basecamp, helping me out with some motivation issues I’ve been having. We didn’t know if we’d release it. It’s VERY raw and, of course, unedited. Here’s what we talk about: * Me losing some of my business “mojo” in recent years * Growing AJ&Smart to 10 million… or not * Why Jason thinks I need a real break from the business * A surprise reveal about...
