Hey fellow automators 👋 Today stripe closed my account saying your business is high risk ... even after I appealed. Anyone faced this issue before, if so how did you fix it?

Nate here, Over the past 9 months, my co-founders (Milan and Tyler) and I have scaled TrueHorizon AI to over $100k/month. Now, we’re opening applications for the TrueHorizon AI Partner Incubator founding cohort, a 10-week, high-touch program built to help AI agency owners systematize, scale, and become true AI partners. ⚠️ Applications close September 26th. Spots are limited, so get yours in soon. And if you know someone already running an agency who’d be a fit, send them our way. 👉 More information here

I’m excited to join this community and looking forward to learning, growing, and contributing. I’d love to connect with people here, share ideas, and learn together. I’m just starting out in AI, so any guidance on what beginners should focus on first would be super helpful. Looking forward to the journey with you all! 🚀🤝

The past eight months at TrueHorizon AI have been a wild ride. We came out of the gates hot, closing 10 deals in a matter of weeks, only to find ourselves drowning in work and missing deadlines shortly after. Two months later, we made the tough call to shut our doors temporarily so we could fix our internal systems before taking on any new discovery calls. Looking back, I’m actually grateful for those couple of months of chaos. The stress, sleepless nights, and constant pressure forced us to grow. We came out of it with a stronger mindset and a deeper appreciation for good systems, good processes, and good people. In this podcast, my co-founders and I sat down for an hour and a half to reflect on the journey so far. Some moments are lighthearted, others carry real lessons, and throughout we share both the wins and the failures that shaped us. My hope is that you’ll be able to take away some nuggets that help you avoid the same mistakes. Give it a listen, and let me know what you think. Cheers, Nate
