Why Most Content Fails (And How The Algorithm Decides What Wins) with Pedro Jerez
Thu Feb 05 2026
If you're running content and ads without proof of what converts, you're gambling.
Today I'm talking with Pedro Jerez, an entrepreneur and growth strategist who's led marketing for multiple 8- and 9-figure companies and spent years as a top 1% sales closer inside Tony Robbins' organization.
Pedro breaks down how a single, well-built offer can scale past 9-figures — and how to validate it in days, not months — instead of burning time and money on ideas that don't convert.
We get into the biggest content mistakes entrepreneurs make, the one metric algorithms use to decide what gets distribution, and how to use organic content to pressure-test creative before you ever spend on paid.
Then we go deeper — what working for Tony Robbins was really like, the inner work most founders avoid, and how to shift from just making money to building businesses that align with how you want to live and lead.
