One More Question is a podcast lovingly created by the people of Nicework, a branding studio based in South Africa that serves a range of clients across the US, UK, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.
The world doesn’t need more lazy, boring, half-arsed, poorly-built brands. In this podcast, we explore what it takes to build a great one. We interview founders who have built multi-billion dollar brands and experts who know how to get people to connect with their products, services, and companies. If you’re looking for insight into the best ways to invest in and build your brand, this may well be the podcast for you.
Our past guests include Bruce Mau, Chris Do, Aaron Draplin, Marina Willer, Michael Bierut and Fredrick Öst.
One More Question is hosted by our founder, Ross Drakes.

In Episode #91, Ross is joined by Drew Brucker, AI pioneer and marketing leader.
Drew Brucker is an expert in building AI-driven visual and written identities, helping brands turn AI into a true brand asset that amplifies distinctiveness instead of erasing it. With a background in SaaS marketing and a focus on custom “ghost systems,” he helps companies move from manual execution to strategic curation without losing their creative edge.
Ross and Drew discuss why most brands sound the same when using AI, how to avoid the generic trap, and the importance of front-loading deep context to build systems that protect and amplify what makes your brand unique.

One More Question podcast
Hello and welcome to RadEO a podcast by Entrepreneurs for Entrepreneurs. It is hosted by Ross Drakes. In this podcast, we share the stories of EO entrepreneurs, their personal stories, some insight into their entrepreneurial journey and the lessons from how they think about their business today.
Don Hache has started, scaled, acquired, and exited eight companies across North America over three decades. Long before AI was a talking point, he was building industrial automation systems with fuzzy logic and robotic vision. The question driving all of it has never changed: why is it done that way?
In this conversation, Don and Ross explore the framework at the centre of Don’s work. Founder. Architect. Steward. Three roles. Three phases. Most businesses never leave the first one, and it’s got nothing to do with talent. The business was built around one person’s capacity rather than a structure that can run without them.
They also get into AI, critical thinking, and what it actually takes to apply automation well inside a real business. Don’s view is clear: AI works best in the hands of people who already go deep in their domain. The barrier to execution has dropped. The value of knowing your domain has not.
One of the best conversations this season. If you are building something that’s supposed to outlast you, start here.
Don Hache is a serial entrepreneur, CEO advisor, and business growth strategist. His work focuses on helping founder-led companies evolve into healthier, more scalable organisations through better architecture, clearer execution, and the disciplined application of AI in real business environments. He has facilitated CEO and leadership-team cohorts since 2007 and is writing a series of books on the evolution from founder to architect to steward. At the centre of his work: enterprise value is a decision, made early and deliberately.
