Two years ago, Alfie Dickens was fixing chairs at a soccer stadium. Then he built the influencer machine behind Cal AI, an app that peaked at $60 million a year. On The Superwall Podcast, Alfie breaks down with host Joseph the exact playbook that reached 220,000 creators and signed thousands of them. How 25 assistants sent 2,000 cold emails a day to sign 2,000+ influencers The minimum view clause that de-risked every deal by setting the floor below what creators bragged Why the best converting videos barely mention the app The 15-second rule behind every winning post Why Cal AI got more profitable as it scaled, not less The one creator type he'd tell you to stop paying for How day-in-the-life vlogs quietly outconverted everything Whether you're signing your first creator or scaling to thousands, this is the honest breakdown of how influencer marketing runs at scale.
