About the Show

Zero to (point) One is hosted by yours truly, Zach Busekrus (@zboozee).   

I’m an entrepreneur in residence at a marketing firm by day and building my own start up Sponstayneous by night.   

Sponstayneous brings subscribers the best last-minute deals and upcoming steals on Airbnb.  My wife and I co-founded the company while living full-time on Airbnb last year.  

There’s a lot of podcasts out there that feature entrepreneurs:

• once they’ve gone public
• once they’ve had an exit
• or even once they’ve made their first million.  

But not as many that feature the first-time Product Hunt launchers, the Indie Hacker that has yet to go viral on Twitter, or the micro influencer who wants to build their first niche product.   

And there’s where this show comes in.

Zero to (point) One features a collection of ideas that may go nowhere, or just might change the world, from people you've never heard of, who may just become household names.   

A nod to tech founder Peter Thiel's Zero to One framework, Zero to (point) One explores the beginnings of (very) early-stage creators and entrepreneurs whose first chapters are still being written.    

Each guest featured on the show has MRR of $500 - $10k (no more and no less) or has 10k - 100k followers on Instagram, TikTok, or Twitter.   

Come and meet the next generation of builders wherever you get your podcasts every Friday morning.
