Jason Hill
Founder, Owwll & Host, The Shrimp Tank
In this conversation, Jason R. Hill shares his transformative journey from the finance industry to becoming a successful podcaster and entrepreneur. He discusses the importance of mentorship, the power of content creation, and the challenges faced while building his app, Owwll.
Ignore the nos and ignore the noise. Jason took hundreds of rejections a week building his financial practice at 22 — wanting to quit is normal; showing up consistently anyway is what separates the 1-4% who make it.
Content compounds faster than cold calls. Moving to Florida knowing nobody, he bought into a podcast franchise, filmed 330+ in-person episodes, and turned client work into content, content into credibility, and credibility into capital.
If you don't have runway, don't build the app. 99.5% of apps fail because founders build just enough and hope to raise — Jason bootstrapped Owwll, built the digital wallet right, and treats marketing as everything.
You go, you get. His father's flea-market rule powers Owwll's thesis: one-on-one conversations unlock opportunities — like the 16-year-old who called a stranger and walked a Hollywood red carpet the next day.
