Filtering Noise with AI: Authentic Growth & Real Connections | Ep. 19 w/ Joe Apfelbaum (evyAI)
AI in sales and marketing isn’t about replacing people: it’s about amplifying them.
In this episode of Is Anything Real in Paid Advertising?, I sit down with Joe Apfelbaum, Founder of evyAI and CEO of Ajax Union, to unpack what it really takes to scale authentic relationships in the age of AI.
Joe shares his journey from building 100+ websites a year, to scaling Ajax Union into one of the fastest-growing companies in the U.S., to creating evyAI...now powering 20,000+ users across 37 countries. Along the way, we dig into:
- 🚀 Why authenticity (not automation) is the real differentiator in AI
- 🧠 How evyAI helps turn LinkedIn into a revenue channel without turning you into a robot
- 🌍 Building a global SaaS product from scratch (and why it almost broke him)
- 🤝 The future of community-driven growth, leadership, and personal branding
