  • Train AI to become Your Voice & Supercharge Your Angel Investor Marketing with Tech | Ep 138
    May 5 2025

    In this episode, Jillian Sidoti shows us exactly how training AI chatbots can not only be fun but extremely productive. Whether it’s ChaptGPT, Grok, Claude, or Perplexity, we should be treating these AI like real people - but not for the reason you think.

    Jillian drops gems with some personal stories about how she’s trained AI to do everything from develop marketing plans, create workbooks, write content, and even prank her kids. She gets really specific on how to prompt AI to get the most effective outputs that feel uniquely you (as opposed to robotic and generic).

    By using AI the right way, you’ll be in a prime position to save a ton of time and optimize your capital raising business.

    Key Takeaways:

    • The evolving role of AI in investor relations
    • How to train your AI chatbot for business or personal
    • The best prompts to leverage AI
    • Why the future of AI is a human renaissance
    • Core AI mistakes capital raisers make

  • Ep. 136: Special Encore - How To Read Investors's Minds
    Mar 22 2025

    In this episode, we dive deep into the art of "reading investors' minds" without relying on gimmicks or guesswork. We explore how practical personality profiling and addressing the elephants in the room can transform your conversations with investors. By understanding who you're talking to, rather than focusing on finding the perfect words, you can tailor your message to resonate more effectively.

    We discuss different personality profiling methods, the importance of research, and how to communicate in a way that helps investors feel seen, heard, and understood. Plus, we explore the balance between being adaptable without losing your authentic self.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Personality profiling is crucial to communicating effectively with investors
    • Who you're speaking to is more important than “the perfect message”
    • Discover profiling tools you can use
    • Always address the elephants in the room
    • How to surface hidden objections
    • Master adaptive communication while staying true to your core values
    • Tips to build stronger, more trusting relationships
