    Crazy Simple YouTube, by Aaron Cuha

    The book. Hardcover, paperback and Kindle.

What Aaron Talks About

Pick an angle, or tell us your audience and Aaron will shape the conversation around them.

Losing a 3,000-person company and rebuilding

DirectLender at 280 offices, the 2008 collapse, a decade of humanitarian work in Nepal, and what actually rebuilds a person after total loss. The version most business shows never get.

The willpower lie

Why the self-discipline advice everyone repeats was never supported by the research, and what actually works when motivation is gone. Based on Aaron's forthcoming book.

YouTube as a business system, not content

Why most professionals fail on YouTube, and the framework from Crazy Simple YouTube that turns a channel into a lead engine without becoming a full-time creator.

AI leverage without losing your voice

Practical AI in sales and operations for small businesses. What to automate, what never to automate, and how to tell the difference.

Suggested Questions

Steal these outright, or use them as a starting point. Aaron is comfortable going off script and does not need questions in advance.

1

You had 280 offices and 3,000 employees. Walk me through the day you realized it was gone.

2

You spent ten years in Nepal after the collapse. Why there, and what did it actually fix?

3

You say willpower is a lie. What do you mean by that, and what does the research actually show?

4

Most people who try YouTube for their business quit in three months. What are they getting wrong?

5

What is the difference between someone who rebuilds after failure and someone who does not?

6

You have coached number one teams in five countries. What do the top producers all have in common?

7

Where is AI genuinely useful in a small business right now, and where is it a distraction?

8

What would you tell someone who is at the bottom right now and cannot see a way up?

Approved Bios

Use whichever length fits your show notes. No approval needed.
