Pets are part of everyday life for millions of renters, but managing them fairly and consistently has become one of the biggest challenges in rental housing.

In this episode of Sharkpreneur, Seth Greene interviews John R. Bradford III, Founder and CEO of PetScreening, who explains how his property management experience led him to build PetScreening as a more consistent way to manage pet policies in rental housing. He discusses how the platform helps property managers assess pet-related risk, support property owners, and set clearer expectations for pet-owning residents. He also explores broader trends in pet-inclusive housing, property rights, regulatory changes, category creation, and PetScreening’s social mission through Fido Alert.

Key Takeaways:
→ Property managers need clear systems because pets can pose risks, liabilities, and policy challenges.
→ The FIDO Score helps evaluate both the pet and the owner.
→ PetScreening helps property managers enforce their own rules rather than telling them what their policies should be.
→ PetScreening has helped housing providers rethink blanket breed restrictions.
→ Creating a new software category requires persistence, education, and continuous innovation.

John R. Bradford III is the Founder and CEO of PetScreening, which he launched in 2017 with a vision to promote pet inclusivity across all areas of life. Driven by his belief that breeds such as pit bulls, German shepherds, and Rottweilers should not be judged solely on breed, John sought to create a platform that provides landlords, property managers, and businesses with data-driven insights to make informed, pet-friendly decisions. His mission is simple yet powerful: to make the world more pet-inclusive, no matter where people live, work, play, or stay.

A tiny molecule produced inside your body may play a major role in how well you circulate blood, manage inflammation, exercise, and age.

In this episode of Sharkpreneur, Seth Greene interviews Nathan S. Bryan, Ph.D., Founder, Chairman, and CEO of Bryan Therapeutics, Inc., who explains nitric oxide’s role in blood-vessel function, tissue oxygenation, inflammation, metabolism, and cellular energy, and shares his view on everyday habits that can affect the body’s natural production. He also discusses the oral microbiome, dietary considerations, lifestyle practices, consumer education, and the research-based standards he believes people should use when evaluating nitric oxide-related products.

Key Takeaways:
→ Nitric oxide helps regulate blood flow, oxygen delivery, inflammation, metabolism, and cellular signaling.
→ Oral-care habits may affect the oral microbiome, which helps metabolize dietary nitrate.
→ Green vegetables and beets may contain dietary nitrate.
→ Product claims should be supported by scientific and clinical data.
→ Lifestyle habits influence nitric oxide production.

More leads and more sales calls will not fix a revenue engine that cannot pinpoint where performance is breaking down.

In this episode of Sharkpreneur, Seth Greene interviews Josh Troy, CEO of The WFS Group, who explains how companies can diagnose whether stalled growth comes from people, systems, sales management, training, lead routing, or an unstructured process. Josh also explains why sales efficiency matters more than surface-level volume, how founders can document their sales knowledge before handing it to a team, and where AI can enhance call analysis and revenue operations.

Key Takeaways:
→ Why most companies misdiagnose sales problems.
→ Sales problems usually fall into two categories: people issues or system issues.
→ Better lead routing can increase revenue and profitability.
→ Founders should document objection handling, talk tracks, winning and lost calls, and their sales process from the start.
→ A founder who relies solely on personal credibility and instinct may struggle to translate sales success to a growing team.

Josh Troy started his first video marketing agency at 21, building it from the ground up through 100% outbound sales. Early on, he developed a belief that outbound sales is the closest thing to generating “money out of thin air,” which led him to expand his expertise into direct response inbound marketing as well.

Over the past decade, and with deep experience across both outbound and inbound sales motions as well as paid media, Josh has developed a unique ability to drive rapid sales growth through talent acquisition and development engines, cultivate high-performance cultures, and build data-backed sales systems designed for aggressive scale.

He is known for building integrity-driven, high-intensity sales teams and architecting scalable sales infrastructures for hyper-growth businesses. As CEO of a triple-digit-headcount sales organization, Josh leads teams that generate tens of millions annually in high-ticket sales in compliance, powered by world-class sales operations and a relentless focus on execution and performance at scale.
