Episode 59 is LIVE and we're solving Pre-Meeting Panic—the most inefficient activity in the corporate world.

You haven't looked at the Project Slack channel since Tuesday. There's a little red badge that says "50+". Your stomach drops. Somewhere in those messages? Decisions were made. Deadlines changed. Someone might have asked you a question.

Now you have two terrible choices:

Choice A: The Panic Scroll—frantically scanning fifty messages in thirty seconds while reading GIFs, "Sounds good!" reactions, and arguments about lunch spots. You're missing the actual business logic.

Choice B: Go in blind and nod, hoping no one asks you a specific question. Then someone says, "Al, did you see my note about the API integration?" You look unprepared. You look checked out.

But there's a third way. 🔥

Meet Conversation Intelligence — Slack AI, Microsoft Teams Copilot, The Gist, and more. One click. One button: "Summarize."

In three seconds flat, AI performs a digital archaeological dig. It reads every message, every reply, every emoji reaction. But here's the magic—it doesn't just transcribe. It structures the signal:

✅ The Conflict - What did the team debate?

✅ The Decision - What was actually decided?

✅ The Action Item - What's due, and who owns it?

You just downloaded three days of human conversation into your brain in three seconds. No noise. No lunch talk. Just business logic.

The real superpower? Threads. You see a message with 47 replies. That's a black hole. Hover. Click. Summarize. The AI cuts through the debate and tells you if they fixed the bug.

Walk into your 2:00 PM meeting informed like a leader. Someone says, "Did you see the budget note?" You respond with precision: "Yes, we're moving allocation to Q3. That makes sense."

Nobody needs to know you caught up in the elevator.

You want to know why you're not winning on LinkedIn? Because you're acting like David, not Marcus.

This episode breaks down two stories:

Marcus (The Winner): Built a real system. He was patient. He used precise targeting. He did it right:

1. Jab: Personalized connection.
2. Jab: Sent a valuable resource with no ask.
3. Right Hook: Then asked for a 15-minute call. He had a human review. He built trust—result: $550K in new revenue.

David (The Loser): He wanted it fast. He was lazy and greedy. He used 15 FAKE ACCOUNTS. He skipped the jabs and went straight for the throat with generic, spammy "right hooks". Zero human review. Result: Got all 15 accounts banned. And—this is the kicker—LinkedIn suspended his REAL 50,000-follower account.

He lost everything because he took a shortcut.

Automation scales who you are. If you're a value-first practitioner, you'll win. If you're an impatient, spammy hack, you'll just destroy your reputation faster.

Stop looking for shortcuts. Do the work.
