  • Chrissy McDannell · Owner, The Magnolia Firm · M&A AdvisoryWants valuation math verified before it reaches a client, after AI produced a five-million valuation on $125,000 of net profit.

FAQ

Media + GTM partnership

Building one of these? Let's get it in front of the operator who asked for it and their vertical.

I'm Galina Fendikevich. I host the Artificial Reality podcast and work with a small number of teams on distribution, positioning, and warm introductions to the operators I interview. Tell me which opportunity you're solving.

What that looks like

  • Sponsor a season or episode where your buyer explains the problem in their words and your solution is presented as the answer to their prayers
  • Warm intros to guests whose workflow you actually solve
  • Positioning & vertical targeting across 5 separate channels, built from actual industry operators not category jargon
