The 10 Minute Personal Brand Kickstart (FREE): https://the505podcast.courses/personalbrandkickstart


What’s up, Rock Nation! Today we’re joined by Kolin Jones - founder and CEO of Amalfi Jets, one of the fastest-growing private aviation companies in the world. While most of his competitors stuck to polished ads and Google keywords, Kolin flipped the script and turned TikTok into his main growth engine, racking up billions of views with provocative office skits, culture clips, and disruptive behind-the-scenes content


Kolin breaks down how to engineer virality in one of the most conservative industries imaginable, why safe is actually risky, and how consistency and volume beat aesthetics every time. From declaring war on industry “dinosaurs” to turning impressions into real revenue, he shares the exact systems that scaled Amalfi Jets from startup to tens of millions.


If you want to understand how to make any business go viral - even the ones that look boring on the surface - this episode is packed with lessons you can put into practice today.
