This week’s guest is Paden Squires, Tax Planning Strategist, CPA, CFP, and Founder of Squires Tax Planning, where he works with founders and business owners to develop proactive tax strategies that support stronger financial decisions and long term wealth.

Paden’s work goes beyond traditional tax preparation, focusing on how business owners can plan ahead, understand their financial position, and make tax decisions that align with their broader business and personal financial goals.

The conversation will explore the shift from reactive tax preparation to proactive tax planning, and why founders should consider taxes as part of their year-round financial strategy rather than simply an annual obligation.

We’ll discuss tax planning, financial structure, cash flow strategy, wealth management, and business decision-making, including how these areas connect and influence the financial health of a growing business.

The conversation will also look at how founders can improve financial visibility, avoid common tax planning mistakes, make more informed decisions with their business cash, and use strategic planning to create greater financial flexibility and long term wealth.

Join the conversation and drop your biggest tax planning, business finance, cash flow, or wealth-building question in the comments.

Will AI Replace Jobs or Create More Entrepreneurs?

On Agency & Brand Growth Weekly Live, Hamid Mahmood asked Jonathan Foltz what happens to jobs when AI allows one person to take on work that previously required a team.

Jonathan shared his view that greater capacity could also create more demand. As services become more accessible, businesses that previously could not afford support may have new opportunities to invest in it.

He used marketing as an example. If AI helps a marketer serve more clients, it could open the door to working with more businesses and give more people the ability to start something of their own.

But he also raised another challenge. As more people gain the ability to build products, create content, and launch businesses, getting attention becomes harder.

For founders and agency owners, that raises an important question: as AI expands what they can deliver, how will they reach the people who need it?

Your Voice Plays a Role in Building Trust

On Agency & Brand Growth Weekly Live, Hamid Mahmood asked Matt Berthot how voice shapes authenticity and what makes someone come across as credible when they speak.

Hamid had connected authenticity with experience and the work someone has done. Matt added another perspective: how people communicate that experience matters too.

He explained that authentic communication starts with speaking from what you know and genuinely believe. AI can help write a polished script, but the expertise, conviction, and care behind the words need to come from the person delivering them.

Matt also spoke about passion. When people hear how much someone cares about their work, it can give them a reason to listen, ask questions, and learn more.

For founders and leaders, this is a reminder to let experience and care come through in the way they speak about their businesses.

AI Can Fake Emotion, Not Feel It

On Agency & Brand Growth Weekly Live, Hamid Mahmood asked Matt Berthot what makes the human voice different as AI voices become more convincing.

Matt brought the conversation back to emotion. In his view, while AI can imitate emotional expression, human communication draws on lived experiences and feelings that shape how people connect.

He also shared why understanding and expressing emotions matters. How people handle stress, show kindness, and remain present can influence the way they communicate.

Matt highlighted an opportunity for businesses and leaders. As AI takes care of more work behind the scenes, it can create more time for building relationships and having meaningful conversations with real people.

For founders and leaders, the conversation offered a reminder to consider how they show up, listen, and make others feel when they speak.

Build Your Marketing Strategy Around Revenue

On Agency & Brand Growth Weekly Live, Hamid Mahmood asked Audrey Bakhach what has changed in AI and SEO and how brands are approaching search visibility differently than a year ago.

Audrey shared how her team is adapting content, researching competitors, and identifying gaps in AI visibility to help brands compete in search.

She also explained why organic search, paid media, and answer engine optimization need to work together. Treating each channel separately can make it harder to see what is actually driving business growth.

Her approach starts with revenue. Look at the analytics, understand where customers and sales are coming from, and use that information to decide where marketing efforts need to go next.

AI Visibility Takes More Than One Tool

On Agency & Brand Growth Weekly Live, Hamid Mahmood asked Audrey Bakhach how her team tracks AI visibility while the tools are still developing.

Audrey explained that CDS combines data from several sources, including Semrush and AI visibility tools, then uses internal AI tools to bring the findings together and fill in the gaps.

She pointed out that individual tools have limits, from the AI platforms they cover to the number of competitors and queries they can track. Relying on one report can leave parts of the picture missing.

Her team runs multiple tests and combines the results to build a more comprehensive audit of a brand’s AI visibility.
