No Bollocks with Matt Haycox
Welcome to No Bollocks with Matt Haycox, the business podcast for entrepreneurs, CEOs, and anyone who wants to build big without the bullshit.
I’m Matt Haycox: investor, founder, and straight-talking business mentor. I’ve funded nearly £1 billion in UK business loans, bounced back from bankruptcy, and now own and advise multiple 7- and 8-figure companies across sectors, from property and e-commerce to finance and hospitality.
This podcast cuts through the noise. No bollocks. No gurus. Just raw conversations, real strategies, and the lessons you actually need to succeed in business.
Each episode features unfiltered insights from me and guests who’ve built it, lost it, and built it back bigger.
So buckle up. It’s time to learn how to do business, properly.

How AI Will 10X Your Business (And Why You're Already Behind) | John Lee
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This episode isn't about social media followers. It's about why millions of business owners are already being left behind, and most of them don't even know it yet.
In this conversation, Matt Haycox sits down with John Lee, entrepreneur, investor, and one of the world's leading voices on AI and digital growth, to unpack the strategies, systems, and tools that are quietly separating the businesses that will thrive in the next decade from the ones that won't.
We're diving into the global shift toward the creator economy and what it means for anyone building a brand, the satellite account strategy that turns 500 views into millions without a big budget, how John has trained an AI called Nova to think, speak, and make decisions like him, and why the four pillars of leads, sales, operations, and brand are the only things standing between where your business is now and a 10X version of it.
