Evolved Pros Podcast | Pilot – George Leith

George sits down with longtime friend and channel veteran Juan Fernandez to talk evolution — from Juan's early days building and losing an IT company after a federal contract collapsed, to founding MSP.AAS.com, a white-label operations platform now scaling faster than anything he's built before. They cover the shift from price-based to outcome-based selling, the "hot pan" risks of ungoverned AI adoption inside businesses, why authenticity is becoming the real differentiator in a slop-saturated content world, and Juan's philosophy on leadership: cultivate people, not just process.🎧 Spotify | 📺 YouTube | 🍎 Apple PodcastsFollow George: @geoleith on X#EvolvedPros #Podcast #Business #AI #LeadershipFull show notes + transcript: evolvedpros.com/podcast/evolved-pros-podcast-ep-010-juan-fernandez
