Description
this episode of Founders Future, with host Ammar Elm, we sit down with Dennis Suttles, the founder and CEO of Cool AI Guy. Dennis shares his incredible journey from a 30-year career in restaurant hospitality management, which was upended by a near-fatal health scare, to becoming a solopreneur fully immersed in the world of AI. He discusses the pivotal moment that made him decide to bet on himself, his initial steps into affiliate marketing, and how he ultimately pivoted to building practical AI solutions for service-based businesses.

He outlines his grassroots marketing strategy, which relies on organic content, community building, and TikTok Live sessions to demonstrate his expertise and generate qualified leads. Dennis also opens up about his goals, the challenges of finding committed clients, and his philosophy on taking consistent action to build a lasting, million-dollar brand.
