Episode notes
In this episode of Pitch, Build, Scale, we sit down with Peter Vasilion, CEO and IT Division Lead at Facet Interactive. Peter shares his journey from tinkering with Pentium 2s in his parents’ warehouse to leading a systems-first consultancy that helps organizations multiply their team’s effectiveness through automation, AI, and enterprise-grade web apps. We dive into: - Why Peter treats AI like an employee—and what that means for practical implementations. - The generational shift changing how clients view marketing and IT partners. - How Peter built scalable processes across ventures like FlightFX (a first-party Microsoft Flight Simulator partner). - Why aligning AI with human oversight is critical for successful outcomes. - Lessons on balancing business development, delivery, and relationship-building in a volatile economy. Whether you’re a SaaS founder or run a dev agency, this conversation will reshape how you think about building systems that scale.
