Before TikTok, before Instagram—there was Myspace. And Ted Dhanik was behind the rocket fuel that made it go viral.

In this episode of Coffeez for Closers, Joseph Shalaby sits down with Ted to unpack his journey from launching Myspace to building Engage:BDR, a publicly traded adtech company that helps brands dominate digital distribution.

They dive into:

• The real growth tactics behind Myspace

• How digital ads evolved—and where it’s all going

• What it takes to build (and keep) a winning team

• Why founders shouldn’t chase validation

• How to think differently about influence, leadership, and legacy

If you're in tech, media, or marketing—this is a must-watch.
