The MindShift Podcast with Darrell Evans
Are you an entrepreneur, founder, or marketer wondering why your marketing isn’t converting as well as it used to?
Are AI tools making things easier or more confusing?

Drawing from 34 years in business and over $300M in client revenue generated, Darrell cuts through the noise to help you adapt, scale, and lead.
You’ll discover answers to questions like:
- Why isn’t our digital marketing working anymore, even though we’re running ads, doing SEO, and posting content?
- What are the best ways to start using AI in marketing without disrupting our business?
- Why is our cost per lead going up while conversion rates are going down?
- Which marketing channels actually drive growth in 2025, and which ones are a waste of time?
- How do we measure real ROI from campaigns, not just vanity metrics?
- Should we build an internal marketing team or hire an agency/fractional CMO for faster growth?
Each week, you’ll hear practical strategies, timeless principles, and AI-powered marketing insights that help you build predictable growth systems, even if you're a team of one.

369: How To Delegate Without Losing Control: 3 Ways to Scale Founder-Led Companies

In this final episode of the series, I tackle the most expensive problem successful founders face - and it's not what you think.
After 14 years working with businesses doing $1M to $20M+ in revenue, I've watched brilliant founders become prisoners of their own expertise.
Your team's sharp, your processes are solid, but clients still only want to talk to you. I break down why this isn't a delegation problem or a hiring problem - it's an infrastructure problem.
I reveal the three specific conditions that allow trust to scale systematically beyond you, including the one layer most founders completely miss (it's the most complicated, and I still struggle with it myself).
If you've ever thought "I'm trapped by my own reputation," or your team keeps running decisions back to you that they should make themselves, this episode shows you exactly why that's happening and what actually fixes it.
No guru tactics - just the proven system that transfers judgment, not just tasks.

No tactics. No trends. Just clear thinking on what actually works from three decades of working with $1M+ businesses that have outgrown tactics but need strategic clarity.
