I know we talked about this on the phone about using automation softwares to post.
You are doing all yours manually, right?
To start with the fact, most of them are missing a lot of platform features.
All the third-party schedulers like Hootsuite and Buffer, etc.
They didn't have real even available to use.
If you look at every social platform, they make majority of their money by ads.
They want people on their platform, watching ads, engaging with others, etc.
Wherever you guys are watching this show, I would truly appreciate it if you follow or subscribe.
It helps a lot with the algorithm. It helps us get bigger and better guests,
and it helps us grow the team. Truly means a lot. Thank you guys for supporting,
and here's the episode. All right, guys, we are here with Logan Forsythe. How's it going, my man? Doing amazing. Thanks for having me on. Absolutely. You're going viral,
right? Hey, always trying, making more content, helping other people go viral. Absolutely. That's
your specialty, man. You're able to get 2 billion views now in your agency. We've generated 2.5
at this point. Wow. And that's in how long? So that's accumulation. It's been myself. And then I have
my partner, Spencer Murphy. And we had combined experience leading up to this, working with
people like Manny Coshman, Jason Capital, Iman Ghazi. Since the agency started, which we're
recording this in January of 2024, we began media scaling in March of 2023. And we've generated right over a billion. It's about a billion and
50 million views so far. Dang. And that's in nine months. Yep. That's pretty crazy.
So the business model is basically partner with creators that have a lot of content
and help them go viral through social media clips, mainly on the short form side, right?
Yep. We specialize in short form. So we have our top level package
where we guarantee up to 150 million real organic views in the first 90 days working with us.
Usually we're falling somewhere between 30 to 150 million on that view guaranteed, depending on
we have tiers of packages that we can roll out. So the more that we post and the higher tier of
package, the higher the guarantee. And also depending on where they start from. But we have done plenty of 100 million,
150 million views guarantee.
So for someone to fit that criteria,
they've already been creating long form content
for usually a long period of time.
They have a big database to go off of.
They've already built the skill set, the team around it.
And we're just going into the foundation
that they've already laid and amplifying it.
Don't feel on the fire.
We'll take an entire team of short form editors, account managers, repurpose their long form
content into very high volume of top quality short form clips. And then we post anywhere
between 1800 to 4200 times per month per client getting started. When you do that level of posting
volume across, we're omnipresent across all social channels facebook
instagram youtube tiktok snapchat we're starting to incorporate more on x and linkedin as well
so we make sure that we're omnipresent also just everywhere and then when you do that level of
posting volume with top quality content inevitably you can tap into some viral posts and then it just
continues to snowball the longer you run this right we'll take all that new reach traffic and
exposure funnel it back to their main socials funnel it back to any free lead magnets or offers
they have. And it just really just amplifies and scales what they're already doing. Yeah. They say
attention's currency these days, right? So just getting a hundred million views in a month, I mean,
that is mind blowing. Yeah. It is pretty crazy. We've hit that now with, I believe, four people
of doing a hundred million plus views per month.
And when you get to that level,
that's just in the last year since we started media scaling.
When you get to that level, the growth is insane.
The audience growth across the board is hundreds of thousands
across each platform, subscribers, followers,
and things get pretty nutty.
So we usually can get to that range somewhere between
month three and month six with clients, depending on if they have the right foundation set up.
Yeah. And there's a lot of monetization methods other than just getting views. You get more
sponsors. You get your brand out there. You can get bigger and bigger guests on your show or your
YouTube or whatever. There's just a lot of wins to getting more views, I feel like.
Yeah, 100%. It opens up so many doors indirectly
outside of just you know having a direct roi from whatever offer you sell if you're a podcast like
you mentioned brand sponsorships patreon can grow just whatever you have set up adsense also uh is
a good lever but adsense is the most inefficient way to monetize on socials you don't want to rely
on it yeah definitely when you have something to sell top, that's where the true money's made.
Yeah, yeah.
There's shows that rely on like the ads and stuff
and you see them when they get demonetized or whatever,
their whole revenue's down the drain.
Right.
So when I started this show, I was like,
I never want to rely on like the platforms just in case
because I have on some pretty crazy guests.
Yeah, and it's not even just the reliance
on the platform itself,
but just having more capital and more money as well
allows you to
put more resources into what you're doing, create a better show like what you've set up also, right?
So there's a lot of benefits to that outside of, but it is risky, like you're saying, demonetize
at any point. Absolutely. So out of the five big platforms, I guess, is there anyone that's getting
way more views than the other? Way more views? No, it can really cycle between clients of sometimes YouTube will be someone's top platform
and even will be month by month.
YouTube will be a top platform one month, then Instagram the next month, then TikTok
the next month.
I would say our biggest three are YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok.
And overall, across the board, Instagram is the leader most commonly, but it's not always the top platform. And they
are generally pretty close to, there's no like way outlier platform across all of them. I use
the analogy that TikTok to a large degree is what it is today with over a billion daily active users
because their algorithm made it to where anyone could go viral regardless of following sites.
Right. And so it flooded their platform with active creators. A lot of people built audiences
overnight because all it takes is one video to hit. And then next thing you know, you have 30,000,
50,000 followers that flood into your account from one viral video. Since then, every other
platform has followed suit. And now you no longer need an audience to go viral. So that's a big part
of our strategy as well. I haven't even mentioned it. We create secondary accounts to do this level of volume.
And so examples would be like Tony Robbins clips, Tony Robbins reels, best of Tony Robbins,
so on and so forth across platforms. And these accounts are created from scratch. They're
branded per client, but all it takes is that one video to go viral. And then we'll have an account
go from 400 followers to 10,000 followers within a couple of days. And then everything snowballs from there.
Yeah. You're able to scale horizontally rather than just post a bunch on one account. You make
hundreds of accounts, right? Yeah. But there is a fallacy as well. We talked to a lot of people
who feel like they can't post more than once per day on an account on platforms. And it's just not
true. We've tested posting volumes from the lowest end of once per day on an account on platforms. And it's just not true. We've tested
posting volumes from the lowest end of once per day, highest end of 12 times per day per account.
And we generally see best results between three to six posts per day per account.
Tap into the most growth. It actually does not hurt engagement either. Your engagement rate
still remains strong. But we look at every post as an at-bat to go viral. And if you have
volume, as long as quality remains, then it's going to do well. You're going to grow faster.
You can't polish a turd. So if you increase your volume and the content sucks, it's not great
quality, then of course it's not going to perform. I think that's the mistake a lot of people make
when they try and increase their volume. So you have to keep that quality. It's incredibly
important. But if you post three times per day on all the platforms,
you can look at the insights, especially when it comes to the shorts and reels and et cetera.
And a portion of all the views from all those posts are going to non-followers or going to
for you page, people who don't know you or they don't follow you. And so you have to look at every
single post as another asset that's getting you in front of new people. They've never seen you before. They've
never heard of you before. And it's giving them an opportunity to bring them into your world.
The more you post, the more that happens. And also the more chances you have of a post getting
100,000 views or 10 million views, which snowballs everything, right? So we generally see if content,
if the content quality is there if you
let's say go from posting one time per day to three times per day you will tap into not only
3x growth but more because it's giving you those at-bat opportunities for some of those posts to
perform better and be outlier posts that really brings people in yeah i post at least three a day
i feel like you're not getting enough metrics if you're doing one a day honestly yeah yeah sometimes
like you could post the same exact clips at different times of the day.
I'm sure you've seen this and one will go more viral.
Yep.
And there is a lottery system aspect to it.
And also what is so great about having a network of secondary accounts as well
is when we find winning posts that go crazy viral on one account,
more often than not, that post will go viral again.
So we do something called remixing on our edits
to where we're not just going to straight up
repost that same clip,
but we'll take the raw footage of that clip,
add different editing on top,
whether it's just different font, colors, B-roll, whatever.
And then we'll post it on one of the other accounts.
And a lot of the time it continues to go viral
again and again and again.
So now that's an asset that you have for your content that you can cadence in as posting.
And you know, more often than not, that's going to go viral.
It's going to get you a lot of new followers or a lot of new subscribers.
Smart.
Is there a warm up period when it comes to just making a new account and posting?
Is there a certain amount of days you need to wait?
Yeah.
So a process that we follow is we make sure all of our accounts are created and then we'll have our team
go in and draft and schedule posts. Usually it'll be three days out and that shows intent to be
using the account. We also have found it's not best practice to just create all accounts in one
platform like back to back to back. So you can spread it out, do two, three accounts per day
and do that over the course of a few days. And generally, we don't have issues there.
There is a typical process
to where some accounts will get shut down
when you create these new secondaries.
But we have appeal templates that we use
and we just appeal the shutdown of the account.
99% of the time, it gets approved right away
and it's like back up.
And usually, that's only at the very start
when you create the accounts.
And once they're there, you're good're good to go oh are they shutting it because
you're not supposed to have more than like five per phone or something yeah it's like impersonation
accounts right because it's all tailored around someone else's name or brand or whatever the case
so the platforms you know it's an issue um and the platforms are cracking down on that and making
tweaks to the algorithm so it's usually not a real person who's doing that. It's just the way that the algorithm has been designed. Then you can appeal
it. A real person will go review that appeal and then they'll approve it up. That makes sense. Now,
when it comes to the thumbnail, the captions, the text, how much of that actually matters?
Yeah, it depends on each platform, right? But thumbnail is important. All the platforms have
discovery placements to where the content is going to people
who haven't seen you before. And if you have an actual like design thumbnail, the only platform
that you can do that on right now is Instagram for short form content. TikTok is testing that
to where some of our accounts is available, but it's not on majority of them. So like on YouTube
and TikTok, the other platforms, you can just be specific about the frame selection that you choose for the thumbnail.
And then on Instagram, you can actually upload a design. We see back and forth results. Sometimes
we see better results on Instagram, uploading a design thumbnail. Other times it is like pretty
similar either way. The most important pieces of it is having a great piece
of content, which means having a great hook. If you're not familiar with the concept of a hook,
the length of it depends on the length of the video. But the hook is the intro of the video
that hooks people in to want to continue to watch the remainder of it. Right. And if you have a
short form video that 60 seconds or less, the hook is really like three to five
seconds. If you have a longer form video, let's say 30 minutes or an hour, people will be willing
to watch for a minute, minute and a half before they decide that they want to fully watch that
entire piece of content, right? So the hook can stretch out a little bit further depending on
how long the video is. But overall, the hook is arguably one of the most important parts.
You can have an amazing edit that has a bad hook and no one's going to see it versus you
can have a subpar edit with an incredible hook and then good content to back it up and
it can go crazy viral.
So the hook is super important.
One of the most high leverage aspects of repurposing long form to short form is clip selection.
You need to have the skill set of
selecting the right clip that has a good hook and it has content that provides a lot of value,
backs it up, has full context, doesn't leave people hanging. And that is not editing, right?
That's just the clip selection alone. And then there's a lot of things that we've learned from
generating billions of views on the editing side that you can do on top to have it perform even
better. Yeah, that's a huge skill. Just the actual selection of the clip, because I've tried
AIs and stuff, you know what I mean? And, you know, one out of maybe 20 clips will be decent,
right? If we're being honest. And then I've hired overseas guys. There's a language barrier
sometimes. Yeah. So they're just clipping up random things. So I think having a really good
team finding the exact moments, or even just setting
the timestamps yourself if you have time, is the best way to do it. Definitely. Yeah. And we just
train with our team on this a lot. We have daily growth calls with every team member for per client
team, is what we call it. And then we've built out extensive trainings as well for all of our
editors, for account managers, for team leaders, just every position in the company. And it's something that we're now helping other people with also from a coaching,
like done with you side, on top of our done for you services to where we're providing people our
own internal trainings. But it's high leverage when it comes to editors. You want them to have
the skill set, if they're repurposing long form, of knowing what clip to select. They can have
great editing, but if they don't have that,
then the content's not gonna perform.
Yeah, it's really cool to see TikTok,
like you mentioned earlier,
kind of level the playing field.
I feel like before years ago,
you need a following to get views.
And it honestly wasn't even worth posting videos
if you had no followers
because it couldn't blow up.
But now, like you said,
I'm seeing accounts with a thousand followers
get a million views on some of their videos.
Yeah, yeah.
It's a new opportunity.
It hasn't been here for a while, and it just came to the landscape to where you can really capitalize on this just in the past two, three recent years.
And we're still in the starting stages of what you can do today through short form content.
But the reason I believe that short form is king right
now and it's so powerful is because the volume play. Like when we can't post, I don't want to
say can't, but it'd be incredibly hard and someone would need to be behind the camera constantly to
post, you know, 4,800 long form videos per month. But we can do that starting right away with short
form content for our clients. And that posting volume, again, when you have quality, it's just creating so much top of funnel
traffic and exposure, new reach for you. And then you can take all that reach and funnel it
somewhere, right? You funnel it to your long form content, to your podcast, to lead magnet,
to the main socials, something. But it's an incredible vehicle to be able to capture a lot
of new attention and a lot
of new reach right now. All the platforms are pushing it as well. So it's a new opportunity
and an incredible opportunity. Yeah. When it comes to posting, I know we talked about this on the
phone about using automation softwares to post. You are doing all yours manually, right? Correct.
Yeah. We don't recommend third party posting softwares. There is theory and fact
behind why we don't see good results with this. To start with the fact, most of them are missing
a lot of platform features and you want to be utilizing all the features on the platform.
And an example would be when Instagram first released Reels, all the third party schedulers
like Hootsuite and Buffer, et cetera, they didn't
have reels even available to use for three, six months. Like there's a long lag and delay. And
when each platform rolls out new features, they want those features to be used. So a lot of the
time they push that content further if you are taking advantage of that. So that's the fact side.
And then the theory side is if you look at every social platform,
they make majority of their money by ads, right?
And so that means they want people on their platform
watching ads, engaging with others, et cetera,
and using third-party software tools
disables that behavior from happening.
It's a way to get around
even going on the platform in the first place
and you're just posting something out,
but you don't have people actually using it.
There is a lot of issues,
like social platforms don't like other companies
messing with their API.
So we have just seen much better results.
We use the native scheduling tools per platform.
YouTube has its own scheduler.
Meta has its own scheduler.
Snapchat, all of them have their own schedulers.
So you can draft and schedule posts
inside of each native platform. But I don't recommend using third party tools yeah is it true snapchat pays the
most out of the social media platforms they have been but i have been hearing whispers and rumors
that they're taking a step back on snapchat shows so with snapchat there's been something called
their show program and their creator program the creator program is more so for really big influencers and celebrities. It's more lifestyle stuff. David
Dobrik is the top earning creator program on Snapchat. He just posts pictures like all day
long. A million a month, I heard. Yeah. Yeah. I've heard even bigger numbers. Wow. So that's
the creator program. It's very hard to get approved for that. You need to be someone who has a huge audience and huge presence already.
And then the other side is the Snapchat show program, which is more so for podcast shows
like this.
There's still gatekeeping behind it.
You have to have a portal and know like the right person in the company to even set you
up with a portal.
Are you interested in coming on the digital social hour podcast as a guest?
We'll click the application link below in the description of this video.
We are always looking for cool stories, cool entrepreneurs to talk to you about business
and life.
Click the application link below.
And here's the episode, guys.
It's application based.
And then if you get approved up until this point, they've been doing 50-50 rev shares
on ads.
And I mean, we have seen shows and have some clients to where it's like,
you could have 40,000 followers and that shows bringing in 30 to 40,000 a month, total gross
revenue. And then the 50, 50 rev share split, you know, the creator is getting 15,000, $17,000 per
month from 40,000 followers, which we've grown a lot of Snapchat accounts from scratch to anywhere
between 50,000 to 130,000
followers within like a three to five month timeframe. So you can tap into crazy growth
on that platform as well. It's super underrated, especially in our space with digital marketers
and personal brands, creators. The majority of people we talk to are not on Snapchat.
And there's over 400 million daily active users on Snapchat.
About 55% is between 13 to 25. But the remainder, 45%, which is still about 200 million people,
is pretty even segments of 25 to 35, 45 to 55, so on and so forth. So there's still a lot of
audience that can be quality on Snapchat. And then if you have a very long-term view, it's like get in front of the kids,
build your audience with kids as well, and wait three years, wait five years.
They're going to age up, and they're going to become like mega fans
because they've been with you from a long standpoint.
Look at Jake Paul.
I mean, his audience evolution has been the craziest I've ever seen.
He used to be straight Disney Channel kids,
and now he has grown men loving his boxing stuff. Yeah know yeah you have to respect what he's done yeah no you
definitely do he gets a lot of hate but what he's done same with logan the attention they've been
able to garner is impressive yeah definitely um is there anything with the algorithms that you've
noticed do they all favor certain metrics or something i would say it's not a direct answer to your question,
but I would say too many people blame the algorithm. That's a problem. A lot of people
think that their accounts are shadow banned or their content's just not getting pushed because
the algorithm, et cetera, et cetera. Reality is your content sucks. You just need better.
That's what it comes down to. And that is what we're breaking down as far as having a great hook,
backing it up with good context,
having it be value-based,
whether that's entertainment or educational,
and having good editing on top.
You just need quality content.
We've posted more than 180,000 times at this point.
We track everything.
We have very, very granular data on everything that we do.
And generally, it can happen sometimes,
but it's extremely rare to see lower production quality content perform.
So that's like you don't want like pixelated video or bad audio,
like echoing audio, bad lighting, all these factors, they do matter.
And then you back it up with what you're actually saying,
using good hooks or good clip selection with your content,
backing it up with value that people actually enjoy watching those are the factors that matter
and a lot of people just like to blame the algorithm yeah that's not the case so don't
shoot bottom production you're saying basically yeah yeah it's worth the investment i would say
so yeah because i look at my old my earlier clips which were blurry they were shot on iphones they
didn't get the views i was getting and the engagement yeah totally and it makes total sense because this is obviously a lot better as more
more factors to go viral yeah and so touching back on your question to the algorithm though
i think it just really still comes back to principles and it's the factor of what is your
goal are you looking to get in front of the right people? Are you looking to just go mass and get as many views as possible? If what you're talking about applies to more people,
it has chances of getting more views, right? So if you're talking about food or health or
relationships, like this applies to everyone versus if you're talking about extremely granular,
high-level business knowledge that's only going to apply to CEOs doing eight figures,
then there's still
a huge place for that. And we can still help people in that in a huge way. And it doesn't
require you to get 100,000 views because if you get 10,000 views and 1,000 of them are top level
CEOs, that's what you want to accomplish. So the quality matters a lot. But long story short,
if what you're talking about applies to more people,
it has chances of getting more reach and more views.
We have a big background with business owners
and being in more of the personal brand space.
We're starting to branch into working with more creators
and et cetera as well.
And views are easier to generate
when you're working with entertainment-based content.
Majority of people are on social media to be entertained, not to be educated, which is a bummer because, I mean,
if you look at all the most successful people, they value education over entertainment, right?
But it's a rare subset. So long story short, if you're going to get more reach, more views,
entertainment content is just better to get views. Comedy, entertainment vlogs, Mr. Beast type style, et cetera.
The comedy podcast gets so many views. I think they're like number one or number two in terms
of podcast categories. Oh yeah. They crush. One of our clients is a dropouts podcast and we are now
three and a half months in with them. Uh've generated 270-ish million views. I checked
the tracker yesterday. I see their clips daily, honestly. Oh yeah. They have taken off. In the
course of that three and a half month period, collectively across the accounts, they've grown
more than 800,000 followers and subscribers. Wow. And they started at a total of, it was
about 912,000, if I remember correctly.
So we've almost doubled their,
and they already had a big base.
Like 912,000 is a big phone.
But we've almost doubled it in three and a half months
just by flooding the internet with their content.
And then their comedy-based podcast,
they've had on great guests,
like Matt Rife, Nodagrass Tyson.
And with them now having this network of accounts as well,
they can market to people,
bringing on guests,
letting them know like, hey, we're generating a hundred. We already hit in month three,
a hundred million plus views with them. So they're fluctuating between like 50 to a hundred
million plus. It's continuing to go up as well. And so they can market that to their guests,
let them know like, hey, we'd love to have you onto our show. Our network of accounts is generating
50 to a hundred million views per month. Like we'll feature you across our accounts you'll get a lot of new exposure yeah and that's allowing them to bring
on better and better guests as well absolutely it's such a win-win and i feel like for the pricing
it's it makes a lot of sense especially with those numbers yeah i mean the roi on that is super cool
you know what i mean yeah and they already had a million on youtube before and they're
they might catch up to theo von at the rate they're going up yeah i mean that's the goal
when we start started talking to them in the first place we wanted letting them know like
we want you to be the next like theo vaughn podcast flagrant podcast with andrew schultz like
full sand impulsive they're kind of in that arena yeah so that's the goal to get them to that level
i wonder if those big shows because i see rogan clips all the time you know what i mean i wonder
if those big shows are doing some sort of method like this possibly uh there is an aspect as well you get so big people just naturally start
to do it also right because you become such a viral machine that people who also want to create
viral videos will just start yeah content they know it'll help um and that just snowballs things
further you know so this is a fast track to get you to that level. Yeah, it happened with Tate.
He was sort of the first one to do this method.
Yeah, he pioneered this strategy.
That's a large part of how we even had the idea of doing what we do today.
So in terms of AI, are you using any AI in this business at all or is it all manual?
We do use AI in the sense of our team will get creative
using generative AI and different images and videos
that they're more so using as like B-roll
inside of our content.
We're not using AI like Opus Clips
is the leading AI software
for repurposing long form to short form.
It's not anywhere close to where it needs to be
or it to be able to compete with our level of
edits and content the idea is incredible the concept is incredible uh maybe it's a year out
maybe it's three years out who knows but it's definitely not there yet so from just like having
ai software completely take over and be your editor it's we're still far out from that and
it's night and day difference
between using something like that and having a top quality editor. Yeah, it's not there yet if
you want separation from everyone because they don't have any B-roll footage. And I feel like
just having subtitles on a screen, that could work. But I feel like the B-roll really helps
the quality sometimes. Definitely. And it's not only that, but the clip selection is way off.
And then also there's a lot that we do
on top of our editing that we found of just keeping it more visually engaging. We want our
edits to be hypnotic to where people are like literally hypnotized to want to watch it and then
watch it again. And that's what creates incredible content. There's a lot of different factors that
you can do in the editing. You're also mentioning B-roll. A big tip for everyone out there is so many people and editors use stock footage and use
cheesy animations and icons.
It's not a good look.
It's not a strong branding look, and it doesn't work well.
We use a lot of celebrities, movie scenes, TV scenes in our B-roll, and you just want
quality animations that they're being used.
Cut out the cheesy pop effects unless that's the brand and demographic like if you're creating content that is more like
entertainment like kind of disney channel vibe then you can do that but i just see a lot of
editors out there and edits being made that have that type of vibe and brand to it and it's not
going to be effective the stock footage yeah you could tell too yeah it's definitely a cheesy look
now when it comes to reaction videos what's your your take on this? Because there's that guy,
KB Lane, he's built his whole brand off reaction videos. He's never said a single word.
I think he has 100 million followers. Do you think that's a good way to get more views?
Yeah, reaction videos crush. It's some of our top performing content as far as editing styles
across all of our client accounts, across all different industries.
It's pretty crazy how often it really performs.
So reaction videos do crush.
There is a lot of people who feel that
they may not add the most value
or may not fit into their brand.
And so you just have to be strategic
if you are gonna do reaction content
of choosing the type of content you react to. and then you can provide your own take on it and provide a lot of additional context
and value on top of that video uh i just launched my personal brand and that's the part of my content
cadence as well i'm testing out more but you can do a cadence of someone else who's done incredible
with reaction content is brett cooper yeah if you go to her channel she started about two and a half years ago maybe it's been three years now she's already at almost four
million subscribers damn all reaction content all reaction all reaction content her views are nuts
if you go to socialblade.com which shows you like growth trends and data of different social
profiles their data is mainly best for youtube and Instagram. But if you search her profile on socialblade.com, she's doing like 150 to 400 million views per month on just her main
channel. Just on YouTube. Just on YouTube, all reaction content. And if you look at her content,
she'll preface a lot of it by like having a hook stating what's about to happen in the video. And
then it'll show the reaction video. And there's also a mix of just like having the video be the hook itself at the start. But another part of how you can be strategic
with this is one, you want the content you're reacting to, to be on brand, uh, with the brand
that you're trying to build, um, side tangent, but we have a incredible brand identity worksheet
that we've developed. We have all of our clients go through and it helps to really shape your brand. What do you stand for? Like who are you talking to? And this becomes the
guiding light for your content. So it's important and effective to have clarity on that. Once you
have clarity on that, you can use that as the guiding light to choose the content you're reacting
to. But another big bonus is you can also only react to content that's gone really viral already
So all the videos you can cherry pick that's gotten already 10 million views or 2 million views or 50 million views
And that now becomes a part of the hook of your video as well
And you can tap into that proven virality, which is also a big theory of why it works so well
Yeah, I might have to try it out. Maybe try out a couple videos a day. See if it works
It's with our clients as well. And. I might have to try it out. Maybe try out a couple of videos a day, see if it works. It's with our clients as well. And then me also, it's really seamless when you're creating reaction
content. It's just also like if, if you're reacting to the right stuff that you like talking about,
it's an enjoyable way to create content as well. I think this is a big key. We also help people
not only with big established brands, but all the way down to committed or looking to get started
scaling your personal brand. And something that we talk about is you just have to remove friction, right?
And so if you are trying to film content and it's just difficult for you, it feels like friction,
there's other ways that you can create content to where it feels seamless. Like I think it seems
like you really enjoy doing podcasts. It doesn't feel friction for you. You don't like dread getting
behind the camera.
You found a way to remove friction and make this a consistent process
for your content creation.
Reaction videos are another big one I find
that people really enjoy that removes a lot of friction
from the content creation process.
Yeah, they're pretty easy to film.
Just need a phone and that's it.
Gotta find the videos, I guess,
but maybe you could have a team even do that part too.
Yeah, we highly recommend,
like if you are a content creator, you're looking to start, you should not edit and you should not
do the distribution and account management yourself. They are incredibly easy and also
cost effective to outsource. And then you just need the right systems behind it. That's something
that we help a lot of people with. But if you're trying to do each of the three pillars of
production, which is creating the content, editing, and then distribution, then you're giving yourself a full-time job.
And this is not sustainable for you.
But if you outsource the editing and distribution, you're omnipresent to where you have accounts set up across all platforms.
This is another big mistake.
So many people are only on YouTube or they're only on Instagram and TikTok. We make sure that all of our clients and all of our members joining our communities
are on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube,
Snapchat, LinkedIn, X.
There's now seven platforms.
If you're posting, let's say three times per day
on seven platforms, that's 21 posts a day.
You're already, that's over 500 posts a month.
You're already ahead of 99% of people.
And then you add production quality on top of that.
This is how you
can start to tap into a lot of growth organically on socials, but it's not sustainable. You can't do
that if you're trying to do it all yourself. You have to outsource the editing and the account
management and then just focus in on the production, remove friction, make it easy for you to
film content and tailor it around content that you enjoy filming as well. Absolutely. Where can
people find you more about the company? I know you guys are booked out till March or April, right?
