Burkland's Startup Success podcast publishes 150th episode with Presentation Mode CEO Carl Fudge on AI-era fundraising. The show has hosted founders and investors across 150 interviews.
Burkland, a fractional CFO and accounting provider for startups, published the 150th episode of its Startup Success podcast on Tuesday. The milestone episode features Carl Fudge, CEO of Presentation Mode, who talks through what founders need in a pitch deck to raise money in an AI-heavy fundraising market.
“Being part of this milestone episode is a huge honor,” Fudge said in the episode. “What Burkland has built, 150 episodes of honest, practical, founder-focused content, is exactly what the startup community needs.”
The podcast launched to help founders navigate finance, fundraising, hiring, and marketing. Kate Adams, Burkland’s chief growth officer and host of the show, said the pressure on founders has only increased. “Every founder we work with is trying to figure out their burn rate, how to scale, how the market is changing, and where to focus their time,” she said. “Startup Success was created to bring the most relevant and actionable insights directly to founders.”
Burkland has been providing outsourced finance and HR services since 2004 and now works with more than 800 clients across SaaS, AI, healthcare, fintech, cleantech, and consumer goods. The company also publishes a blog called The Smarter Startup and has made all 150 podcast interviews available online.
