Meeting
Jesse Barnett - F2F
Gist
Casual catch-up call with Jesse Barnett, mostly personal talk about mic gear, his transition toward self-employment, and mindset around regret and momentum. Chris then walked Jesse through DNS setup on Bluehost to point his messageaccelerator.com domain to his Lovable-hosted app, fixing A and TXT records. Chris also invited Jesse to his May 20th agency lunch club and shared updates on his own business: he already hit his annual revenue goal and is leaning into hosting events (lunch club, content days, an agency leaders workshop) to grow his network.
