Summary

John Rush went from building 7 VC-backed startups as a CTO to creating a $3.5 million ARR empire of 20+ AI tools, with his biggest product SEO bot generating $120,000 monthly recurring revenue using just a 2-person team.

He reveals his exact 30-30-30 growth formula (30% SEO, 30% cross-promotion, 30% social media) and how his listing bot makes over $50,000 per month selling one-time payments to 1,000 new customers monthly who want access to his database of 20,000+ directories.

In this episode, John screen-shares his actual Stripe dashboard showing the revenue growth and breaks down how he achieves $720,000 in annual revenue per employee by building AI agents that run his entire operation on autopilot.
