In this episode of Founder2Founder, host Aaron Spivak sits down with Adrian Aidid, Founder and CEO of LDX Digital, a top Google and YouTube Ads agency that manages over $11 million in monthly ad spend. Adrian is no stranger to scaling brands, he’s helped grow eight companies to over $100K/day in spend and engineered acquisition systems responsible for hundreds of millions in revenue. But before becoming one of the most respected operators in the performance marketing space, Adrian’s journey began in government housing in Bristol, England.
Adrian opens up about how growing up with a single refugee mother shaped his relentless drive, how a failed job transfer became the catalyst for his entrepreneurial breakthrough, and the exact steps he took to go from running Facebook ads for local shops to building one of the most trusted agencies for global e-commerce brands. He also shares the importance of giving without expectations and the unique infrastructure LDX builds to turn traffic into scalable, profitable growth.

Entrepreneurship isn’t just a career—it’s a relentless, all-consuming way of life.
Welcome to Founder2Founder a raw and unfiltered podcast where host Aaron Spivak pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to build something from the ground up. No sugarcoating, no overnight success stories—just deep, honest conversations with some of the most driven, underrated, and game-changing founders of our time. From brutal setbacks to game-changing mindset shifts, Aaron goes beyond the polished success stories to uncover the unglamorous, deeply personal side of building a business.
As a seasoned entrepreneur himself, Aaron goes beneath the surface and gets into the nitty-gritty of what it truly takes to succeed. He’ll dive into the habits, behaviors, and routines that set elite founders apart, the tactics and strategies that are working today, and the mindset shifts required to push through the hardest moments. Through raw personal stories, late-night struggles, and breakthrough moments, guests open up about what it really means to grow, not just as a founder, but as a person.
Each week, Aaron sits down with visionary entrepreneurs from high-growth startup founders to seasoned CEOs, for real, unfiltered conversations about the highs, lows, and everything in between. Whether you're scaling a company, launching your first venture, or just looking for inspiration, this podcast will give you the insights, motivation, and real-world advice you won’t get just anywhere. If you're ready to strip away the illusion and get real about what it means to build, sacrifice, and thrive, this is the podcast for you. Join us every Wednesday!
