In this episode of the Thoughtful Entrepreneur, your host Josh Elledge speaks to the Founder & President of Accelerated Intelligence Inc. & Podcastcola, Shaahin Cheyene. Shaahin Cheyene is a dynamic entrepreneur who has made significant strides in various industries, including the supplement industry, digital vaporization, and selling on Amazon. However, his recent focus has been on podcasting, a platform with exponential growth. Shaahin shared his journey of starting a company to help people get booked on podcasts. He realized that there was a specific algorithm for getting booked, and by systemizing the process, he saw a dramatic increase in his bookings. As his reputation grew, he started getting requests from others who wanted to use his services. Initially, Shaahin wasn't planning on doing it for anyone else, but he decided to try it for a couple of others, and it turned out to be a success. Since then, his business has grown strictly through podcasts and word of mouth. Shaahin compares his podcast booking service to the real estate market in Malibu. He mentions how people might view a "for sale by owner" sign in a neighborhood where houses are worth millions of dollars. It's seen as an amateur and raises questions about the house's quality and the seller's. Shaheen emphasizes the value of professionals and having a reputable agency behind you.
