AI vs. Humans: Shark Tank Winner Reveals the Future of Hiring

✅ Join the bootcamp: https://hiretowinbootcamp.com/join-no...

Should you use AI to replace people — or to hire the right ones?

In this exclusive interview, I sit down with Chris Johnson, a Shark Tank winner and serial entrepreneur who built and sold a multimillion-dollar consumer products brand… and then completely reinvented himself with AI.

You’ll hear how he reduced his team from 124 to 13 people by building AI agents that outperform his top employees — while still doubling down on hiring elite A-players when it matters most.

We break down:

-When to hire humans vs. deploy AI
-The bronze, silver, and gold framework for building winning teams
-How to find passive A-level talent that never applies to job boards
-The secret behind Chris’s 400 booked interviews per week
-How his AI avatar set appointments better than his real team
