The Mark Haney Podcast

Today, on Veteran’s Day, we’re honoring the men and women who never stopped serving. In this conversation, we sit down with Jeremy Thompson and Ian Boeye from the Special Operations Association of America (SOAA) — an organization fighting to ensure America’s elite warfighters are never forgotten, neglected, or left behind after their service. SOAA is doing what most people don’t realize still needs to be done: • Advocating for Special Operations forces in Washington • Mobilizing rescue operations in crisis zones • Supporting medical and psychological recovery for veterans • Rebuilding the pipeline of American service and leadership This isn’t politics — it’s patriotism. This is about love of country, brotherhood, and the belief that America is still worth defending. If you know someone who has served — share this episode with them today. Let them know they are seen. They are appreciated. They are not alone.

What if you actually knew where every sprinkler line, valve box, tree, drain, wire, and irrigation zone was on your property? That’s the problem that Arik Levy set out to solve when he built YardPro — a GPS-based property mapping and maintenance app designed for homeowners, landscapers, and property managers who are tired of guessing what’s underground. Arik isn’t new to solving real-world problems. He’s a serial entrepreneur, the founder of Laundry Locker and Luxer One, which scaled nationwide and processed over 250 million package deliveries before being acquired by ASSA ABLOY. After exiting, Arik didn’t retire — he doubled-down on his purpose: solving unsolved problems. In this conversation, Arik and Mark talk about: • How YardPro maps irrigation, utilities, and landscape assets with GPS accuracy • The evolution from “just a tool for my own property” to a scalable company • The journey from founding to exit to starting again • The role of Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO) in leadership, purpose, and growth If you're a homeowner, landscaper, property manager, or someone who hates wasting time figuring out where things are buried, YardPro might just change the game. 🔗 Try YardPro → https://yardpro.com 📱 Available on iOS + Android Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yardproapp/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/YardProApp/ YouTube: @YardProApp EO Website: https://eonetwork.org/ EO YouTube:  @EntrepreneursOrganization   EO Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/entrepreneursorg ______________________________________________________________ If this episode inspires you to be part of the movement, and you believe, like me, that entrepreneurs are the answer to our future, message me so we can join forces to support building truly great companies in our region.  - Subscribe to my channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCom_​...  -   Mark Haney is a serial entrepreneur that has experience growing companies worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

AI is completely changing how people find and engage with brands — and traditional marketing strategies aren’t enough anymore. In this episode, I sit down with Josh Hanosh, VP at Three29, to unpack how artificial intelligence, machine learning, and new AI tools are reshaping marketing, search, and lead generation.

Josh shares practical tactics for optimizing your site for AI bots, building smart backlinks, leveraging FAQs and question clustering, and future-proofing your marketing strategy. We also explore how AI is driving massive productivity gains, freeing teams from repetitive work so they can focus on creativity and strategy. 💡 What you’ll learn: • How AI and machine learning are changing the buyer journey • How to use AEO to get your brand discovered • Why clean schema and backlinks matter more than ever • How AI tools can give your team a real productivity edge Website: https://three29.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/three29/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshua-hanosh/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/three29agency/ 🔥 Subscribe for more conversations with the people building the future of entrepreneurship and innovation. #AI #Marketing #MachineLearning #Productivity #AITools #ArtificialIntelligence #AEO #Entrepreneurship #BusinessGrowth #DigitalMarketing #FutureOfWork #MarketingStrategy #backyardadvantage  ______________________________________________________________ If this episode inspires you to be part of the movement, and you believe, like me, that entrepreneurs are the answer to our future, message me so we can join forces to support building truly great companies in our region.  - Subscribe to my channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCom_​...  -   Mark Haney is a serial entrepreneur that has experience growing companies worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

This week on The Mark Haney Show, I sat down with Dr. Luke Wood, President of Sacramento State, and I’ll tell you — this conversation will change how you think about higher education. Dr. Wood isn’t just running a university. He’s rebuilding what college looks like. Under his leadership, Sac State has launched the nation’s first Black Honors College, introduced a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration with a concentration in AI and Business Management, and created Combat U, a one-of-a-kind collegiate pathway into boxing and mixed martial arts in partnership with UFC legend Urijah Faber. We also talked about entrepreneurship, the future of career opportunities, and how the Carlsen Center for Innovation & Entrepreneurship is helping students turn ideas into businesses that fuel Sacramento’s economy. And of course, we covered the big energy around sports — from the push toward FBS football at Cal Expo to a men’s basketball team now coached by NBA star Mike Bibby (and featuring Shaq’s son on the roster). Dr. Wood’s philosophy is simple but powerful: “Bite down on the mouthpiece and go.” That mindset is transforming Sacramento State — and inspiring a new generation of leaders, innovators, and doers. ______________________________________________________________ If this episode inspires you to be part of the movement, and you believe, like me, that entrepreneurs are the answer to our future, message me so we can join forces to support building truly great companies in our region.  - Subscribe to my channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCom_​...  -   Mark Haney is a serial entrepreneur that has experience growing companies worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
