Nobody Cares About Your Product (But They'll Care About You)
What if content was the most powerful business asset you weren't using?
Kathy Wang, co-founder of Press Club, did something most ambitious professionals won't: she quit her $200k a year job, with nothing lined up, and bet everything on building in public. Before she ever launched a product, she had already built an audience of 10,000 people. And when she finally posted about Press Club, one LinkedIn post brought in 60 qualified leads.
In this episode of the GenZEO Playbook, Kathy breaks down exactly how she did it and more importantly, how you can use the same playbook to grow your startup, personal brand, or creator business.

- Why Gen Z is rejecting the traditional career ladder and what they're doing instead
- How AI is changing what it means to build a product in 2025
