The Reverse Engineering AI Blueprint
Show notes
What if the trick behind Amazon wasn't a stroke of genius… just a spreadsheet and some reverse engineering?
Joe Downs and Peter Swain show how AI turns that same Bezos move into the ultimate apprenticeship.
Stuck dental hygienist dreaming of a skincare brand? Teacher hunting for summer income? Business owner watching a competitor quietly win? Same process.
Joe and Peter break down how to use AI tools to build a sixty-day course on any skill, uncover side hustle ideas you've never considered with one "Twenty Questions" prompt, and respectfully borrow the playbooks of companies like SoFi.
No connections required. No courage required. Not a dime spent.
If you've ever looked at someone else's success and thought "I could never do that," this episode was made for you, because financial freedom starts with paying attention.
