    Most hospitality brands are renting the machine instead of owning it. They're bleeding revenue through invisible leaks in their engagement system. Taryn went from $30K to $130K a month by fixing one thing: her nurture sequence. She planned her entire year of content on January 1st and just executed. No strategy pivots. No panic. Just consistent follow-through.

    Meanwhile, your competitors are learning to balance human touch with AI automation. They're taking your Thursday night crowd. By 2027, this shift won't be subtle anymore—it'll be fatal.

    Brady breaks down the PR boondoggle trap and why most agencies can't show you ROI. Gabriel reveals the "renting vs owning" mentality that's keeping you stuck. Plus: the client who turned $700/month into 2,200 active DM conversations.

    Feb 12 2026

    The Engagement Crisis Killing Wineries, Breweries & Distilleries (and How to Fix It) → https://youtu.be/xiyShLAbWS0

    You're spending $10K a month on PR, social media, and agencies. But you're stuck on a plateau.

    Brady and Gabriel break down the three problems killing hospitality businesses: Frankenstein offers, broken conversion, and random acts of traffic. They reveal why most agencies want you dependent (not independent) and how to escape the boondoggle trance.

    The fix? One irresistible offer. One scalable traffic source. One conversion system. That's the Dream CRM Machine.

    Stop hiring gypsies. Start building a team of ninjas. Make yourself indispensable—not dependent.

    You've got traffic. You're just not capturing it. Brady and Gabriel break down the "hell yes hand raiser" — the high-value content offer that turns scrollers into customers. Learn why one word generated $100M in sales, why your CRM is probably useless, and why Instagram DMs have 4x the open rate of email (but you're still ignoring them).

  • You're Bleeding Cash (And Don't Even Know It)
    Jan 29 2026

    The Engagement Crisis Killing Wineries, Breweries & Distilleries (and How to Fix It) → https://youtu.be/xiyShLAbWS0

    You're spending $12K/month on website, PR, and ads. But can you prove it's making you money?

    Most hospitality businesses are bleeding cash on tools they don't need, in the wrong order, with no way to measure results. Brady and Gabriel break down the exact blueprint: Pre-Digital Foundation → Four Horsemen → Acquisition System → Scaling. Skip a layer? You're working for your vendors instead of them working for you.

    The golden rule: If you're not getting 10% ROI monthly, you're in the wrong relationship. Plus, the 15-second DM method that turns ghosts into superfans.

    98% of brands are using AI to pump out fast, hot, cheap content. They're losing their soul one automated post at a time. The 2% who get it? They're using AI to amplify their humanness—not replace it.

You'll learn the exact ladder framework that separates connection from commodity, why the middle ground is extinction, and one question that reveals where your business really stands.

    Brady dropped $200K on coaches and masterminds this year. Gabriel built someone else's business for six months before realizing it. We're pulling back the curtain on our biggest wins, epic failures, and the frameworks that actually stuck.

    This isn't your typical year-in-review fluff. We're talking train tracks vs. wanderlust, the passenger method, and why hiring helpers instead of leaders will keep you stuck. Plus: the investment that changed everything and the one word guiding our next move.

    Raw. Real. No corporate speak.

  • Turn Likes Into Revenue With These 3 People
    Jan 8 2026

    The Engagement Crisis Killing Wineries, Breweries & Distilleries (and How to Fix It)

    https://youtu.be/xiyShLAbWS0

    Brady just spent three weeks in South Africa at luxury resorts charging $500-1000/night. Every single one had the same problem: gorgeous properties, mediocre cocktails, and zero engagement. They'd post beautiful content, get likes and comments from travelers actively looking to book... and then ghost everyone.

    Sound familiar?

    Most hospitality businesses are bleeding revenue because they're posting but not engaging. They're sending out the bat signal but nobody's there to answer. In this episode, we break down the Opener/Setter/Closer system—the exact framework that turns social media interactions into reservations, without hiring a full marketing team.

    Here's what we cover:

    1. Why engagement is your lowest-CAC customer acquisition channel (a $1.88 drink can generate a $50+ check)
    2. The three roles you need: Opener (spots + starts conversations), Setter (books reservations), Closer (delivers experience)
    3. How to find customers by "following the foot traffic" on your competitors' pages
    4. Why most restaurants answer phones during slow times but go dark when they're busy (backwards thinking)
    5. The housekeeping analogy: engagement is a recipe, not rocket science

    If you're in hospitality and you're posting content but not starting conversations with the people who engage with it, you're leaving money on the table. This episode shows you how to fix it.

    Jan 1 2026

    Most breweries and wineries are letting 40-50% of their revenue rot on the ground. You're spending thousands on PR and websites while ignoring the DMs, comments, and conversations that actually drive sales. Brady and Gabriel break down why you need someone on the edge of the dock with a fishing pole—the co-pilot model that turns engagement into revenue. Stop begging Yelp and OpenTable for scraps. Put systems in place. Cultivate the conversation, not force the conversion.
