REPORTS TO : President
LOCATION : Austin, TX
What is Contrarian Thinking and what do we do?
We free minds and build bank accounts. We’re on a mission to help 1 million people become financially free and to create 100,000 small business owners.
We’re a digital education and media startup that has amassed 8 million followers in 3 years–and we’re just getting started
Our weekly newsletter is read by over 800,000 subscribers, which you can read here.
We also produce some of the best content in the finance category on our YouTube channel (and Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, and TikTok).
99% of our content is 100% free.
The other 1% is how we help people become expert deal makers so they can acquire a “boring business” that cashflows
We do this through our courses and a select, highly engaged community of over 3,000+ business owners.
We also have our own investment fund, Contrarian Thinking Capital, that invests in the businesses and tech that supports SMB growth and our own portfolio company, Main Street Hold co.
So, yeah, you could say we put our money where our mouths are.
Why our work matters …
The “Silver Tsunami” is in full effect, with Baby Boomers retiring and their businesses needing a succession plan.
Their businesses have been run for decades, many at a healthy profit, but alas, they have been overlooked by institutional investors.
And since many Millennials are focused on becoming YouTube stars and not wanting to own their parent’s landscaping company (even if it’s making millions) these Boomers are forced to either close or sell their business.
Therein lies our opportunity.
We call them “Boring Businesses”. They are your local laundromats, car washes, pool cleaning routes, handyman services, etc.–the unsexy blue-collar businesses that no one thinks about but everyone needs. And boy are they profitable.
But it’s not all about the benjamins
We believe our communities are a better place when our actual neighbor owns the Neighborhood Store and not a conglomerate.
We believe in Main Street over Wall Street.
We believe in thinking critically and cash flowing unconventionally.
We believe in our Contrarian Creed - the operating philosophy for our business (see below).
Position Overview
We are looking for a seasoned podcast producer to lead and grow our audio business and be the driving force behind the success and growth of the BigDeal podcast with Codie Sanchez.
We are currently a top 100 business podcast, your goal is to get us into the top 25.
This role requires a creative, organized, and growth-focused individual who understands podcast production and is also intimately familiar with leading podcast distribution platforms. You will be responsible for owning podcasts from concept to execution. You have a combination of creative, analytics and production chops in order to build a content strategy that will dramatically increase our audience and engagement. You will also be working side by side with our founder and host Codie Sanchez (bio below).

We believe our vision is the template for the modern media startup.
