Jason Wright is a speaker, author, entrepreneur, real estate investor, and digital marketing architect known for designing intelligent AI agents and automation solutions for business owners. After starting as a teenage lawn care entrepreneur and enduring a tumultuous journey through corporate HR, sales, and safety roles, Jason carved his own path by embracing the ups and downs of self-employment. Today, he runs Intentionally Inspirational, specializing in AI-driven marketing and automation for real estate investors and fellow entrepreneurs, helping them scale efficiently while keeping a sense of humor and authenticity at the forefront.
How humble beginnings (mowing lawns for fishing tackle) sparked Jason’s entrepreneurial bug—and why he rebelled against the "get a degree, find a boss" script.
The struggle of his first business launch, running out of money, and being forced to ask family for support—and why hitting bottom forged business resilience.
Pivots through jobs (cars, mortgages, publishing), freelancing on Upwork, and finally building a niche business serving real estate investors with automated marketing solutions.
The essential mindset shifts: the world doesn’t owe you anything, ego means nothing, and success requires adapting to rejection and uncertainty.
Why discipline, over motivation, is key to entrepreneurship—and how the habit of working through difficult periods produces long-term results.
Jason's advice for leveraging AI now, niching down, and automating the parts of business that drain your energy.
Top 3 Takeaways
You must earn your entrepreneurial credibility through setbacks, pivots, and doing the grunt work—even without recognition or immediate financial reward.
Automate, outsource, and delegate aggressively; focus only on the work that maximizes your unique value and happiness.
Embrace failure as a necessary precursor to growth—your timeline is unpredictable, and your highlight reel will be built on low points.
Notable Quotes
"The world doesn’t owe you anything. Your ego doesn’t mean anything in the entrepreneurial world."
"Motivation is not required to get things done—even if you’re not motivated, do it anyway."
"Most business owners overestimate the value of their time, and underestimate the importance of discipline and automation."
