Episode The Brutal Truth About Scaling Sales Cover

The Brutal Truth About Scaling Sales

In this episode of The Seed Podcast, we are joined by Juan Prim, a two-time author and mentor who has navigated the high-stakes world of international corporate business and successful tech exits. Juan dives deep into the realities of the "Brutal Sales" mindset, explaining why traditional business schools often miss the mark on teaching the grit required to scale a company from scratch. We explore the evolving landscape of work, where Juan argues that while AI is rapidly transforming white-collar professions, the role of the entrepreneur remains the one position that cannot be automated. He shares his personal journey from cold-calling at a Spanish startup to managing massive investment rounds and eventually moving into the "acquisition CEO" space. Whether you are a student looking to break into the AI hub of Barcelona or a founder trying to understand what investors truly want beyond a pitch deck, this conversation offers a raw, unfiltered guide to surviving and thriving in the modern business ecosystem. -------- Follow Juan on LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/juanprim/] Check out his books: "The Lean Funding [https://www.amazon.es/Lean-Funding-C%C3%B3mo-financiar-startup/dp/B0BDTQQC5C]" and "Metodología Brutal Sales [https://www.amazon.es/-/en/Metodolog%C3%ADa-Brutal-Sales-Aumenta-ingresos/dp/B0DGLFJGFN/]"

He Created the Biggest AI Event in Spain

In this episode of The Seed Podcast, we sit down with Jérémie Benhamou, a French entrepreneur who has spent the last eight years transforming the technological landscape of Barcelona. Jérémie shares his fascinating journey from building the Spanish subsidiary of Extia - growing a team to 150 people in the middle of a global lockdown - to his latest ventures, TheTechNation. We dive deep into Jérémie's "intrapreneurial" spirit and his transition into the world of Generative AI. He explains why he believes Barcelona has surpassed other European cities to become a premier tech hub and shares behind-the-scenes insights into organizing the AI Summit Barcelona, a massive event bringing together 10,000 innovators. Key topics we cover: * The Pivot to AI: Why Jérémie shifted from traditional consulting to an AI-first agency model * The "Crouly" Vision: How AI agents and human "dream teams" are revolutionizing tech services * Survival Skills: Why curiosity is the only soft skill that matters in the age of AGI * The Future of Work: Jérémie’s bold take on why manual emails will soon be a thing of the past and how we are moving toward a "dev-less" world * LinkedIn: Jérémie Benhamou [https://www.linkedin.com/in/j%C3%A9r%C3%A9mie-benhamou/] * Websites: AI Summit Barcelona [https://aisummitbarcelona.com/] | TheTechNation [https://the-tech-nation.com/en]

Episode Why Founders Inc is the “Pre-YC” for Hardware Cover

Why Founders Inc is the “Pre-YC” for Hardware

Can a single month in Silicon Valley teach you more than a four-year degree? In this episode of The Seed Podcast, we sit down with Victoria Clotet, the powerhouse CPO of Twintual, to discuss her rapid ascent from a CS student at the University of Virginia to the heart of the tech world. Victoria shares how she bypassed the traditional "Big Tech" route to dive into Founders Inc, an intense one-month accelerator known as the "Pre-YC" for hardware and high-stakes software. We explore the "insane" mentality required to build a unicorn and why the Valley remains the ultimate proving ground for ambitious builders. Victoria pulls back the curtain on her latest venture, Twintual, an AI-driven "second self" designed to manage and respond to your messages across email, Slack, and Discord. She breaks down the critical role of a Chief Product Officer, emphasizing why founders must prioritize user feedback and "ship" their first version before they feel ready. Whether you are a student wondering how to leverage your professors' industry experience or an aspiring entrepreneur looking for the right visa strategy to enter the US, Victoria’s "no-nonsense" advice on networking and relentless iteration is essential listening.
