# Mike Bledsoe · bledsoe.life

> Mike Bledsoe rebuilds businesses around AI. The through-line: you do not have to become the operator your business needs, you have to own one, and now that operator can be AI you own instead of a person or a seat you rent. bledsoe.life is home to the Sovereignty Stack Check, the Full Stack Founders show and community, and Mike's writing.

Mike Bledsoe is an operator who rebuilds businesses around AI. Every business runs on five layers: Positioning, Offer, Marketing, Operations, and Cashflow. The work is owning each layer with AI you control, rather than renting the parts that decide whether the business is yours to someone who holds the keys and never lives with the result. Mike's primary build is REI Boss, a separate portfolio business, referenced only as proof and on a lag. Tagline: Build it. Own it.

## Start here
- [The Sovereignty Stack Check](https://bledsoe.life/start/): a free 60-second diagnostic across the five layers that names your constraint and the single move that matters next. No signup to see the result.
- [About Mike Bledsoe](https://bledsoe.life/about/): the origin, the receipts, and the two ways in.

## The five layers (the Sovereignty Stack)
- Positioning: who you are, who it is for, why you.
- Offer: what you sell, packaged and priced into a clear yes.
- Marketing: attention and demand, which is where the website, content, and channels live.
- Operations: deliver it and run the business without it running you.
- Cashflow: how the money works, meaning profit, cash, and what you actually keep.

## Ways to work with Mike
- [Full Stack Founders](https://bledsoe.life/full-stack-founders/): the community where six and seven figure operators rebuild the five layers using AI as an operator they own, not one they rent. Free to join. Premium is $49 per month for the member skill library.
- Build lane: a quiet, capped, done-with-you engagement. Mike goes into a business, builds its AI-native operation with the founder, then hands over the keys, a project they own rather than a retainer. By application, scoped for established businesses. It starts from the [Sovereignty Stack Check](https://bledsoe.life/start/).
