AI Literacy for Entrepreneurs


Sep 4, 2024

Welcome to the very first episode of “AI Literacy for Entrepreneurs”! 🎉

In this inaugural episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on a big, bold decision: rebranding our beloved 5-year-old podcast, "The 4am Report", into its new identity, "AI Literacy for Entrepreneurs."

After years of exploring what keeps founders and marketers up at night, the past year made it clear that our mission was evolving - pivoting sharply into the world of AI. And so, a rebrand was in order.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

🔍 Why Rebrand a 5-Year-Old Podcast?

Find out the emotional and strategic reasons behind saying goodbye to “The 4am Report” and how we knew it was time for a name that reflects our current mission.

🤖 The Power of AI in Rebranding

Discover how I used AI tools like ChatGPT and custom GPTs to brainstorm new names, analyze past themes, and gather community feedback to guide the rebrand process.

📝 The 3 Key Criteria for the New Name

I break down the three things I knew the new name needed:

  1. AI in the Name: To align with our mission and reflect the core of what we’re doing.

  2. Findable but Distinct: A unique name that is easy to find but avoids trademark headaches.

  3. Built to Last: A name that stands the test of time, not just a passing trend.

📊 Engaging the Community

Learn how we included our audience in the rebranding process, from polls on LinkedIn and Instagram to direct feedback, and why this transparency was crucial to finding a name that resonates.

🔎 Navigating Trademark Availability and Market Research:

Hear how AI tools like Perplexity simplified the search for name availability and helped us make a plan to avoid potential trademark issues, ensuring our new identity was both unique and legally sound.
