That Entrepreneur Show

The final episode of the month will not disappoint! This week on That Entrepreneur Show, we're pulling back the curtain on the often-confusing world of marketing partnerships! We're thrilled to host Behdad Jamshidi, CEO of CJAM - The Marketing Connector, a truly unique and successful business. Bee founded CJAM after realizing a critical gap: most companies don't know how to evaluate marketing agencies or properly assess their own needs. In just six years, Bee has personally vetted over 1,000 marketing agencies, narrowing them down to 100+ preferred partners across every niche. He's since become the ultimate matchmaker, successfully pairing hundreds of businesses with the perfect agencies for their unique needs. His diverse background, spanning marketing, engineering, consulting, leadership, sales, and strategy, has made him the indispensable conduit between business owners and the marketing teams designed to fuel their success. Featured in MarketWatch, Bloomberg, and the Financial Post, Bee brings a wealth of knowledge. In this episode, he'll share the biggest lessons learned from his career at CJAM, including crucial insights from working with countless agencies. We'll also explore his journey for that defining moment – perhaps a failure or an unexpected opportunity – that changed everything. Finally, Bee will reveal what he believes is something about running a company that most people simply don't realize. If you've ever struggled to find the right marketing partner, or want a candid look behind the scenes of an innovative business, this is an episode you won't want to miss!
