Let’s face it, Real estate education has lost the script. Everybody “claims” to have the secret sauce. They get you to sign up, get you to bite on a “magic” formula, but there’s no real tools to get there. There’s so much talk, no practical steps. It’s not instructional, it’s hype. The ideas aren’t focused on your success, it’s focused on theirs. Well, it doesn’t have to be that way. If you’ve been searching for a way to escape the rat race and achieve true financial freedom wholesaling real ...

How Logistics Veterans Should Be Thinking About AI with David Bell

AI is being hyped as the magic bullet for supply chains—but what happens when your infrastructure isn’t ready to support it? In this episode, Blythe Brumleve chats with David Bell, CEO of Cloneops.ai, about the cold, hard realities of deploying AI in logistics. From unreliable data pipelines to the complexity of nearshoring, David breaks down what’s broken, what’s fixable, and what’s still wildly misunderstood.
Whether you're trying to optimize costs or just figure out how to prep your backend systems, this episode delivers the technical insights and strategy talk you didn’t know you needed.
Key takeaways:
- Most companies overestimate their AI readiness due to poor data infrastructure.
- Nearshoring challenges can be solved, but not without multi-tier supply visibility.
- AI needs structured, reliable, and real-time data to be effective.
- Cost optimization often breaks down without proper freight data standardization.
- Internal champions for AI projects must bridge both tech and ops.
