David Bianculli: Albert Lasker made more money than anybody else in the history of the advertising business. The book scientific advertising sold like eight or 10 million copies, and he stored it in a vault for 20 years. And then once he sold his advertising, I think he gave it away like a token like $100,000 to the people working there. For every one person that would buy a podcast, there's a thousand or a hundred that would listen to him for free. But conversion rates were higher, but you guys said this is where like a local maximum.
ACQ Sessions returns with David Senra of the Founders Podcast. David is one of our very favorite people in the world — it’s impossible to spend an hour (or 3!) with him and not come away inspired to go take over the world. This conversation is an “extended, IRL version” of monthly calls that we do together where we share stories, swap life and podcast advice, and just genuinely enjoy sharing time with someone who shares our outlook and enthusiasm for the history of entrepreneurship. Pull up a chair, grab a beverage (or energy drink in David’s case) and join us!
