Hosted by Rocket Shipping's CEO Gabe Pankonin and Head of Revenue Troy Barter, the show provides an inside look at constructing scalable revenue architectures without needing to rely on outside funding to expand your sales skills and/or sales teams.

Across episodes, Gabe offers his own experiences with bootstrapping companies from idea to profitability. With refreshing honesty and humor, he can dissect the financial mysteries of fledgling startups.
How do you transform an untested business concept into one raking in recurring revenue? How do you identify and court that first set of customers who will stay?

Structured as part masterclass // part business case studies, the Rocket Revenue podcast equips you with actionable advice for every growth phase as a startup founder.
For those still at the starting line, Barter zooms in on presale tactics to validate and improve product-market fit. He focuses on mapping realistic and repeatable pathways to profitability. While he draws extensively from B2B Saas business models, the revenue fundamentals hold true across most startups.
