What do cashflow, content, and Krispy Kreme have in common? According to Trevor Grimes and his longtime friend Chris Brown, more than you’d think. Chris, a solutions engineer at Trovata.io, helps companies understand where their money is—literally. But in this episode, he goes beyond bank accounts and into the messy, experimental journey of making content before you have it all figured out.
Trevor and Chris reflect on their early creative projects, lessons from Alex Hormozi and Gary Vee, and why cringey content is part of the process. They break down how to balance volume with authenticity, why capturing ideas matters more than polishing them, and what it means to keep showing up—even when the algorithm doesn’t care.
Listeners will walk away with permission to create something imperfect, refine it later, and build a body of work that actually means something.
