This week, Jaci and Michael sit down with David Feinman, Co-Founder and CEO of Viral Ideas, to talk about the art (and science) of video that actually gets watched.

From building The Zombie Run in college to leading a global video-editing agency today, David’s entrepreneurial journey is all about turning big ideas into scalable systems without losing creativity. He shares how Viral Ideas has grown from a $200 experiment into a seven-figure operation—and why the best videos don’t just look good, they make you feel something.

You’ll hear:

  • Why simplicity beats flash when it comes to video and branding
  • The formula behind viral moments (and how brands can “hook hack” attention)
  • How to balance AI tools with human creativity without losing the magic
  • The surprising ways team culture drives creative output
  • What companies misunderstand most about making video content that works

Whether you’re leading a marketing team or just tired of making videos that fall flat, David’s insights will inspire you to rethink what “viral” really means.
