Some of y’all only know me because of AI. You know me for prompts. You know me for apps. You know me for YAMS. But let me reintroduce myself… Before ChatGPT. Before prompts. Before Skool. Before vibe coding. Before AI apps… I had already spent more than a decade in the trenches driving growth, scaling revenue, solving complex marketing challenges, and helping corporations and entrepreneurs generate millions of dollars in gross revenue. Long before AI became the hottest topic on the internet. This isn’t something I started learning after ChatGPT came out. This is what I’ve done professionally for years. I’ve helped drive millions of dollars in business growth through digital marketing, paid media, search marketing, e-commerce, advertising strategy, optimization, and execution. I’ve managed Amazon advertising. I’ve managed Google Ads. I’ve managed YouTube Ads. I’ve managed SEO. I’ve helped companies turn around struggling accounts. I’ve sat in countless strategy and ideation sessions with founders, executives, leadership teams, and decision-makers solving real business problems—not hypothetical ones. I’ve collaborated with Fortune 500 companies to train their teams! I’ve been invited into rooms where marketing decisions impacted real revenue, real businesses, and real people. I wasn’t invited because I knew the latest AI tool or because of a FOMO video... I was invited because I knew how to think strategically, solve problems, and deliver results. AI didn’t create my expertise. It amplified it. That’s why YAMS exists. Not to help you chase every shiny AI tool. Not to convince you your breakthrough is hiding inside the next app either. Not to make you feel like you’re always one course, one cohort, one prompt, or one software update away from success. YAMS exists to teach you how to think outside the box with your own brilliant brain. Because here’s what I know… You already have ideas. You already have experience. You already have skills. You already have creativity.

True story… Sunday is a sea day, and I thought it would be fun to do something a little different. Instead of waiting until I’m back home… Why not build from the middle of the ocean? 😂 So I’m opening a special Vibe Code Session for Premium + VIP members on Sunday. 💻 Live building 💡 Strategy 🛠️ Troubleshooting 🌊 Ocean views (WiFi willing 👀) Sunday’s session isn’t valuable because I’m on a cruise ship. The real value is learning how to build wherever you are. We’re doing what most people never do: Taking an idea and turning it into something real. You can build from your kitchen table. You can build from a coffee shop. And apparently… you can build from the middle of the Caribbean too. 😂🌊💻 The location is fun. The skill of consistently turning ideas into assets is what changes everything. If that’s the kind of mindset and skillset you’re trying to develop, upgrade to Premium or VIP and join the session on Sunday morning. -Whit 🫶🏽 p.s. Premium and VIP will also get access to past vibe code recordings (including this vibe sesh) 😊 Will you be attending? Sunday, 5/31 between 6am - 10am
