  • Great podcast

    What ever happened to Melinda? She was a great inspiration to me and many others in the sewing and embroidery world. She seems to have disappeared off the internet. I sure hope she’s alright.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Building $300M Dream Homes for Billionaires | Grant Bowen, Founder & CEO of Peak Projects
Q: How does Peak Projects manage risk and maintain value for clients spending hundreds of millions?
Peak uses data-driven budgeting, macro-budgeting that integrates all teams, rigorous project controls, and candid, timely communication to ensure clients understand costs, risks, and value, avoiding optimistic, unreasonable forecasts.
Building $300M Dream Homes for Billionaires | Grant Bowen, Founder & CEO of Peak Projects
Q: What exactly is an owner's rep and how do titles differ in the luxury residential space?
An owner's rep acts as fiduciary for the owner/investor, managing the project from vision through closeout with a focus on budget, schedule, and administration; in residential, the role has evolved to handle larger, more complex projects with bespoke deliverables.
$8B Success Story to AI Pioneer | Founder, President & CEO of Jivox, Diaz Nesamoney
Q: How do you view product-market fit and selling before building?
Product-market fit is iterative: talk to potential buyers, test concepts, and sometimes sell the idea before fully building it to validate demand and reduce risk.
$8B Success Story to AI Pioneer | Founder, President & CEO of Jivox, Diaz Nesamoney
Q: What's one takeaway from SellerQuest that you bring to DaVinci?
Seek a much bigger market and avoid getting so focused on a niche that the total addressable market isn't large enough to sustain growth; leverage partnerships to scale rather than trying to go it alone.
$8B Success Story to AI Pioneer | Founder, President & CEO of Jivox, Diaz Nesamoney
Q: What was the initial product Informatica brought to market, and how did it evolve?
The original idea was to move data off mainframes to newer systems, but the real pivot came when we realized customers would need ongoing analytics and reporting, so the product evolved from data movement to data transformation and analytics.
