Starting point is 00:00:00 So my name is Drey Medici. I'm a 24 year old eight figure entrepreneur. I also own Linkme, a nine figure valued app as well. So maybe a nine figure entrepreneur in that range. But I originally started coming to Miami at two years old from Uruguay. Even on Facebook, I have, you know, statuses of me selling things at eight years old, nine years old. And then at 10 years old, I started cleaning shoes because I wanted to start camping out for shoes. So sleeping outside the stores for eight hours and getting the shoes. And so I started cleaning shoes literally only for like a month just to save up $120. And then I went with my dad and we slept outside of Foot Locker for eight hours. Got the shoes. Sold them the next morning on Facebook, on like Facebook groups that people used to have of just sneaker communities. Sold them for double. And my dad told me make double in that light bulb ring. I instantly started selling workout meal plans. So that was my first Instagram business.
Starting point is 00:00:47 I made the Instagram. I had, you know, nice professional content that I got done. I flew to LA to do content. Everything was super high quality because I started learning that from just being on Instagram and seeing, you know, the successful people where people that weren't successful, I just had, you know, regular selfie videos that were moving around and not professional.
Starting point is 00:01:03 And so I started doing that business up until for about 18 months, until I grew it to $100,000 in profit. There was no expenses on that business, no employees. The workout meal plans I was making run a Google Doc, so it literally cost me $0,000, just like all my businesses. And so once I scaled it to $100,000 in profit, I was also building my personal brand at this time.
Starting point is 00:01:21 So now I had, you know, that exposure of growing a personal brand. And then I used that money to open up a restaurant with my dad as well. So in 2018, we opened up Luna Pasta on 69th. Originally on 68, now we have two locations, 68 and 69. How important this personal brand and how has it helped you and your success in your business? Overall, the importance of a personal brand for everyone to truly understand that's watching this is what it's going to do for you is it unlocks opportunities. The code to winning insights you need today to seize the world tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:01:55 Today, again, we are in the sunshine state of Florida. in the very heart of Miami, meeting some of the most successful entrepreneurs in this specific state and city as well. Today we have an amazing guest, very, very intelligent, super young, and extremely successful. He's going to be talking a lot about digital marketing, entrepreneurship, upscaling your business, sales, and just elevating to the next step as well. If you want to be able to do so, this is the episode for you. Without further ado, we're going to be introducing Dre Medici, right? Born in Uruguay, you know, chasing the American dream, absolute the epitome of what it is to be able to put it all in and achieve unlimited amount of success.
Starting point is 00:02:40 So without further ado, our amazing guest, Drei Medici. Thanks for having me, Kaji. Yeah, with some stuff, all right. So my name is a little harder pronounced. So I'll go by KG as well. KG, okay. KG is in kilograms. Yeah, that's easy way people remember. something they say Kevin Garnett. I'm like, I'm a little bit more handsome, a little shorter, but a little bit more handsome. So, yes, sir. So I want to kind of like dive in and just talk about your success. Like I said, man, I don't know what it is. What's the water you guys drink in Miami? What is it? Fiji? I don't know what it is. People are successful. You know,
Starting point is 00:03:19 and one thing that's crazy, it's the fact that they just seem to be just leveling up each and every single time. I want to kind of find out a bit about your background, the history, where you from, how you started in this field. He could just give us a brief introduction of who you are. For sure. So my name is Drey Medici. I'm a 24-year-old eight-figure entrepreneur. I also own Link Me, a nine-figure valued app as well. So maybe a nine-figure entrepreneur in that range. But I originally started coming to Miami at two years old from Uruguay. My dissents, obviously my last name is pretty well-known last name, but I don't know how close I am since that goes, you know, hundreds and hundreds and thousands of years back as well. But I moved here at two years old.
Starting point is 00:04:02 My parents were both always employees. And so, you know, I always had a burning passion to, you know, just overall be able to support my family, have income for myself at all times from the young age of eight, nine years old. I was already seeing anything that I could sell. Even on Facebook, I have, you know, statuses of me selling things at eight years old, nine years old. And then at 10 years old, I started cleaning shoes because I wanted to, to start camping out for shoes. So sleeping outside the stores for eight hours and getting the shoes. And so I started cleaning shoes literally only for like a month just to save up $120. And then I went with my dad and we slept outside of Foot Locker for eight hours.
Starting point is 00:04:39 Got the shoes, sold them the next morning on Facebook, on like Facebook groups that people used to have of just sneaker communities. Sold them for. And my dad told me make double what we just bought them for like in five hours and he couldn't believe it. And so that was like my moment when I started doing that up until the age of 14. I was like one of the biggest near collectors in like, you know, elementary school, middle school, up until like the age of 14. That's kind of when I stopped because they changed the model of being able to sleep outside the store to only doing raffles. So then I was like, you know, this is kind of just like luck now. It's not really the hustle.
Starting point is 00:05:12 So I started reselling tickets to ultra rolling loud. I would sell like 100 tickets every time there was an event. I had a specific strategy that I would basically go on Twitter three months before the events. and all the people that would buy like years out, a year ahead, they would sometimes not be able to get a refund, so they would need to sell it for a low price. And so I would get it for low prices, and then go to the kids in school, sell it to them at, you know,
Starting point is 00:05:34 just 5% off retail on Stubhub, 10% off, and basically just do that, sell ultra rolling loud tickets. Then I started doing my own events in school, so proms, the after parties, the buses, all that stuff. I was the one always selling those tickets. And then at 17, throughout this whole time, I was one of the top soccer players in Miami as well, so I was always in very good shape.
Starting point is 00:05:54 And then at 17, a lot of people started asking me, how do I get in such good shape? Because I would post on Instagram, you know, cooking my own meals, going to practice and going to the gym in the same day. And so I was like, wow, this is a business now that I can have on a year-round level that can be, you know, a life changer for me because the tickets and stuff and the events were like seasonal businesses, you know, four or six months out of the year, I'd be making money.
Starting point is 00:06:15 And then so when that happened at 17, that light bulb ring, I instantly started selling workout meal plans. So that was my first Instagram business. I made the Instagram. I had, you know, nice professional content that I got done. I flew to LA to do content. Everything was super high quality because I started learning that from just being on Instagram and seeing, you know, the successful people versus people that weren't successful.
Starting point is 00:06:34 I just had, you know, regular selfie videos that were moving around and not professional. And so I started doing that business up until for about 18 months until I grew it to 100,000 in profit. There was no expenses on that business, no employees. The workout meal plans I was making run a Google Doc. So it literally cost me $0. I started that business with $0,000, just like all my businesses. And so once I scaled it to $100,000 in profit, I was also building my personal brand at this time. So now I had, you know, that exposure of growing a personal brand.
Starting point is 00:07:01 And then I used that money to open up a restaurant with my dad as well. So in 2018, we opened up Luna Pasta on 69th, originally on 68. Now we have two locations, 68 and 69th right next to each other. One is takeout. One is a restaurant. But I started that and I started doing all the marketing for the restaurant as well. So bringing in customers in Miami every single day at the age of 18. So now at the age of 18, I had my personal brand.
Starting point is 00:07:22 I had the workout meal plan business that I grew to $100,000 in profit. And I also had the restaurant as three marketing case studies. And that's when I was like, wow, you know, with fitness, you can only make so much money because it just like wasn't necessarily, fitness was my passion, but business was more of my passion, right? And I also realized that if I'm not helping people make money, a lot of people can't even afford what I'm offering if they can't afford to pay a gym membership or the healthy, organic food that I'm telling them to eat. So my passion started to become helping people make more money. That was like my new goal.
Starting point is 00:07:51 So with my personal brand, I was like, how can I help people make more money? And so I started the agency. And then what I would do is I would also offer my services, of course, to business owners and stuff like that. But then there was a lot of 18, 17-year-olds that were looking at me wanting to make money online. So I started recruiting people to my team, showing them how to become an affiliate with my offer. And just alone with that, literally in the first year of launching my agency, grew it to a million dollars in revenue, just with referrals and people on my team, no ads, no marketing, nothing. and then like two years after that,
Starting point is 00:08:22 I started learning a little bit more about ads and marketing, et cetera, and we broke like two million the year after that, and then ever since that for the last three, three, four years since then, we've been hovering around like 3.6 to 4.5 mil per year with the agency alone. And yeah, now there's more things that I've done like Link Me and the restaurant. We scaled it now open a much bigger location. I have a few different real estate properties as well, multi-family 28 units that I invested in and a three-bedroom apartment in downtown at the
Starting point is 00:08:52 Elster as well. I have a Lamborghini Uris that I bought when I was 22, Model X Tesla at 23. Still have them all today. So yeah, it's a little bit of a rundown on me. My gosh, man, that's incredible to you. You know, as you mentioned all those different things, I was waiting for you to mention the fact that you modeled for Hugo Boss because you're quite an attractive guy. No modeling, no modeling, no modeling. So you had no modeling for Hugo Boss or anything. I'm waiting for that. Use it for the personal brand, you know?
Starting point is 00:09:18 Thank God. So I want to talk. I want to touch base first on personal branding as well. Digital marketing, especially from COVID time, you've seen the trajectory has just been enormous and it's been crazy over time. And I feel like right now somebody mentioned to me that people can associate better with, you know, YouTubers, content creators, way more than associate with like celebrities as well. You know what's crazy when you used to watch Oscars and Grammys and rappers?
Starting point is 00:09:46 what's crazy right now, the digital content space is actually taken over where people relate a bit better because they see the content every single day and so forth. How important this personal brand and how has it helped you and your success in your business? Overall, the importance of a personal brand for everyone to truly understand that's watching this is what it's going to do for you is it unlocks opportunities. You see, rich people don't get rich because they work harder, right? Because there's people that work way harder than rich people and they still don't make a lot of money. But what worst people do is they take advantage of the cheat codes that we have available.
Starting point is 00:10:17 And it's always going to make more sense. You can ask anyone. You can do a survey to 1,000 people or a million people. If you give them two scenarios, one person shakes your hand. They show you their Instagram, 1,000 followers. Maybe they're private or maybe they don't have a bio or maybe they don't have any good content. Or another person stakes your hand. They built it up to like you, 30,000 followers.
Starting point is 00:10:35 They have good content. They're showing that they're going to events or networking with high-level people. Instantly, who are you going to rather continue to speak to? Just continue to speak to. Who are you going to answer their text? Who are you going to follow? Who are you going to choose to do any of that with? It's always going to be that other person.
Starting point is 00:10:48 So if you go to a networking event and you're shaking hands and you hear from a podcast, someone says, go to networking events. You'll be able to get so much value, meet so much relationships, but you don't have a personal brand. You're not going to see the same results that somebody went and put the same amount of time and did that with an impressive personal brand. Right? So one of the people right now in the online space that a lot of people know,
Starting point is 00:11:07 whether you like him or you hate him is Luke Belmar. Luke Belmar is one of my closest friends. We came friends five years ago because even before he blew up, I had already had my personal brand. So when I reached out to him five years ago, he saw I had an impressive personal brand. He said, hey, let's hang out. I'm coming to Miami. And ever since then, since I'm one of his OG close friends, we've still maintained a very strong relationship today.
Starting point is 00:11:27 I'm in all his courses that he comes out with, all his different programs. And everyone, like, idolizes him on social media, right? So I'm explaining that because that opportunity came and me being able to network with such high-level people because I have a personal brand. One thing about me is I'm followed by like the most important people in the space, right? You look at, you know, any of the people that people idolize on YouTube and stuff, most of them follow me. And that's, again, because I built my personal brand and I started to do it at a very early stage. So anyone, if you haven't built your personal brand, all you have to do is start posting content about things that you like, have high quality pictures which you can have someone take with, you know, an iPhone.
Starting point is 00:12:01 You don't even need expensive equipment and start trying to go viral. How do you go viral? You look at other people that are going viral. Go through the For You page. See viral concepts. try to remake them. You're going to have an easier time to go viral. You start building your personal brand like that. You're consistent. You message hundreds of people every day to network. Then you start doing collaboration posts. You meet other people. And boom, you have a personal brand that now you can
Starting point is 00:12:20 make money from for the rest of your life with literally anything. You were mentioning different industries that you touch upon. When you have a personal brand, you can launch any business. A restaurant, people are going to come because of your personal brand. A podcast, people are going to come. An event, people are going to come. You want to launch a hedge fund to raise money. People are going to come because of your personal brand. So if you have a personal brand, if you have a a personal brand you can ever go broke. Man, golden nuggets, absolute mic drop right there. And now I want to try and just touch on that same topic of personal brand.
Starting point is 00:12:46 And I think I went to, I first met Bradley. I had like a double date with him, the wife. I end up also going to like a VIP event where I sat down with him. And that's one of the things he talked a lot. Like he's in Vegas time and they speak a lot about personal branding. And you get to see the fact that if you, in the right rooms with the right people, that I have got the right concept. You mentioned that Luke Belmar.
Starting point is 00:13:09 And it's true. Whether you like him or hate him, he's still trending. Whether you like him or hate him, he's still making the money. You know, it's like even the Tate's as well. Like all these people, whether you like them or hate them, you're still talking about them, which is relevance. And relevance creates content and content creates like, you know, you leverage that to like money as well. Which goes back to my next topic.
Starting point is 00:13:27 Same thing about the personal brand. And I've seen it with you. How can people continue to leverage that personal brand into bringing revenue to their business as well? So the beauty about a personal brand is it helps you build a complete company. In terms of revenue, as you know, as you grow your revenues, what else do you need to grow? Your team, right? You need to have more people that are helping you fulfill on bigger revenues. And so through my personal brand, until this day, I've been able to hire over 1,000 people from my personal brand.
Starting point is 00:13:56 Of course, not all of them are still with the company, but I've went through a thousand different staff that I brought on. Today we have about 300 employees that have come directly from my personal brand because I feel like, as you were mentioning, people get to really know you. you, understand you. So those are the people you want in your company, not just anyone who sends it, you know, an application or a resume on LinkedIn, who doesn't really know you as much as people that have been watching, admiring, and really know that you're a genuine, hardworking person that shows up every day. So a lot of people have come directly from that. The next part is from your, to grow your revenues, like I said, if you go to an event and you're going to get clients because of your personal brand, that's growing your revenues.
Starting point is 00:14:30 If you get invited to speak at an event, that's growing your revenues. If you get invited to be on a podcast, that's growing your revenues, right? So there's literally. hundreds of directions and ways that I can mention on how it's growing your revenue, right? Even if someone is looking at your, you know, your car outside and you give them your Instagram and then they message you and they want to be a client or you're in the elevator and they say, nice to meet you and you give them your Instagram and they see what you're doing, they can be your client, right? So there's never any ways of how it's growing your revenue. Man, how did you become so like ahead of time? Because you look at an average, you know, I don't
Starting point is 00:15:02 know, 24 year old, a little even younger as well. It's not become the TikTok generation. oh, selfie, selfie, selfie. Like how, I just feel like you're ahead of your time. Like, was that something that was engraving new work? Because usually people like that have got like a story, a why, like they were in a situation where there was a rough upbringing, something, and they just had to put their foot down and say, I'm going to be able to do that thing.
Starting point is 00:15:22 I look at yourself, the success you had for your age, you literally top 0.0001% for a 24-year-old, and you're already 0.1% in revenue-wise for an average American. What's the story behind? And were you always that way? So my dad was very poor. My dad lived in New York City for 15 years for free. He was squatting, living in, you know, abandoned buildings and stuff.
Starting point is 00:15:44 So hearing those stories growing up and then coming to Miami and also living in very poor conditions with my dad, like we had like, we were sharing a space with like a crack addict, you know. And he was probably paying like $350 a month in rent. You know, we were living in really, really bad conditions when we first came here. So seeing that, my main goal was always how can I make enough money so I can provide financially for my father and that's what i've been able to do like when we first got this restaurant and i came in and invested and put money to making it happen we only were able to have 50% of the restaurant we had to get 50% to other people because we financially couldn't afford to you know
Starting point is 00:16:19 launch a restaurant it's very expensive to do so with my capital three years later we bought them out 50% 210 000 i had to negotiate and send the wire myself you think that if if i wasn't here and i didn't have these ambitious goals who was going to send the money for him he had he had he had at the $10,000 in his account. So who was going to send the money? So at the end of the day, I always knew that my goal was to be in position to be able to provide financially, be the, you know, the man of the family. And so that was where it really came from, which allowed me to start at nine years old already having that entrepreneur mentality, literally trying to sell everything. And I think for me, it was like once I found that winning offer, you know, first it was
Starting point is 00:16:56 the obviously the selling the shoes and then the tickets and then the fitness business, those were like a winning offers. But essentially once I found the agency, you know, it just all made sense because I had been building up all my characteristics, my skill sets, my grit. And now I joined a high ticket market, right, where I was also having subscriptions as well. And so with all the things that I had already compiled and learned, once I applied that to a high ticket business model with subscriptions, with a done for you service and a winning offer, everything just took off, you know, and there's not much more to it. You know, that's kind of how it all happened. And then with that, I'm glad you mentioned that.
Starting point is 00:17:35 With that, I noticed because you, in a variety of different industries, you found success in those industries, you managed to upscale those industries on the field that you're in. Would you suggest somebody start off on a certain business or field that they're in and kind of upscale that, or do you think diversity on streams of income is important at the beginning as well? It's not so much diversity. Of course, if you can figure out ways to manage it, for example, if you have a successful business that's generating you X amount of profit among, let's say $50,000 profit a month, you now can hire an employee $10,000 a month to go learn and operate that other business model, that other industry for you.
Starting point is 00:18:14 Right. So as you generate capital, if you learn how to build systems and teams, you can go and expand beyond that. But in the beginning, you don't need to figure out how to make millions of dollars by trying to learn every single business because you're going to burn yourself out. What you want to do is before you start that business and start putting in consistent hours into that business that you can never get back, you want to ask yourself the following questions. is the business that I'm in high ticket, meaning that once I sell one customer, I'm making a good amount of profit, whether it's $500, $1,500 per customer. I don't want to do a business
Starting point is 00:18:44 that's making me $10 per customer selling story highlight icons or video editing, and that's the only thing I offer. I'm not going to make it to high levels selling low-ticket products that way. The next thing you want to ask yourself, is it a done-for-you service?
Starting point is 00:18:56 Because if I only have a course that I sell and you never take the time to watch that course, I can't sell you on anything else. But if I sell you in a service that's done for you, I say in the next 30 days, I'm going to get you 100 leads. And I get you 100 leads in those 30 days. Chances are you're going to pay me again the second month, third month, maybe a year, maybe two years, maybe you're going to refer me to people because I'm doing the work that I'm promising you.
Starting point is 00:19:15 I'm getting the results. Why are you not going to keep investing in that continuously or doing more? I got you 100. Let me get you $1,000. Instead of you paying $1,000, now you pay $10,000. Now from one client, one relationship that I'm in the elevator, I generated $100,000. Right? So you want to ask yourselves, am I an industry that's done for you?
Starting point is 00:19:31 Am I an industry that is in high demand, right? Social media services, everyone goes to an event. They hear personal brands, social media. So if you're the expert at that, you're going to get a lot of clients because it's something in a lot of demand, right? We know the importance of personal branding. We know the importance of first impression since years back. If you go properly to a business meeting or an interview with a suit or you have a nice watch, it's going to catch you little attention. Personal brand is the same thing, just in a digital phase, right?
Starting point is 00:19:54 So at the end of the day, that's what you want to ask yourself before you start pursuing or trying to choose a bunch of things. Focus first on one thing, generate a lot of capital, but make sure what you're focused. focused on is producing high revenues because when I was grinding with my fitness program, I was working just as hard, maybe even harder than I'm working now. The problem with that was it was a one-time payment and it was low ticket. It was $120. I wasn't experiencing business yet, so I didn't have a subscription offer in that business. So every single month, if I generated 10K, next month, I've generated zero until I go back, make all those phone calls again, work my ass off and try to hit that 10K again. The difference with my digital marketing agency was my minimum product was
Starting point is 00:20:32 1,500. So same 12 calls that I used to do before for to reach that revenue. I was accomplishing it in one, right? And then I was also having monthly subscriptions tied to those packages as well. So all the new customers that I was getting would then continue to pay next month, which then also allows you to hire more people with less risk because you don't have so much overhead because your overhead is canceled out by your monthly subscriptions, which then allows you to invest even more into other marketing campaigns and other potential risk as well because the risk is minimized by subscriptions. Bingo, Yatsy, Golden Nugget again, baby.
Starting point is 00:21:07 Now, I love that, dude. When you spoke about subscription, when I was in New York, and I did like two internships there, 2019, 2020, around that time, and the financial district, it used to be like a dream, you know, for many people come inside, do your Goldman Sachs, do your JPMorgan, do, you know, work your, away in the investment field, become an investment banker, become a, you know, a trader. That's what, you know, Jordan Balford, that's what has been a dream for many people.
Starting point is 00:21:38 And so I happen to do an internship in Bloomberg, and, you know, he's net worth right now is $120 billion. But majority of the, his net worth comes from the Bloomberg terminals. So what these terminals are actually a computer which has got all forms of technology, software, detail, news, information that people are paying for. It's a subscription basis, right? Where people are actually paying $20,000, $25,000 a year subscription, and they have, like, hundreds of thousands of clients, slaughtered off from the Goldman Sachs.
Starting point is 00:22:13 Then they end up branching out to, like, smaller businesses as well. To the point where even when I was in college, when I graduated in financial economics, our school had terminals as well. And that's when it cracked the code. I was like, oh my gosh, like his network comes from the terminals, the terminal is the subscription basis, which has been happening for 40 years. And subscription is the key because you end up having recurring customers that keep coming back as well. And like, so for you, how have you kind of like perfected or have kind of got into the field of subscription?
Starting point is 00:22:45 How has that helped your businesses over time? So the main way to tell my business is how I mentioned previously, right, by being able to employ more people without so much risk. Right. Imagine if you have to pull, you know, 100,000 a month. in payroll every single month and you don't have subscriptions. You know, you're relying on that top line only. It's gonna be very hard and very stressful to be able to grow.
Starting point is 00:23:04 So definitely allowing me to hire more people has been the number one best way. When we talk about like ways that I have mastered it, maybe we can talk a little bit about retention. Yes. Right, is really building a good relationship with those customers and not, and the biggest key here, remember this guys,
Starting point is 00:23:19 is being proactive, not just reactive, right? People have a subscription, they wait for that customer to complain and then to try to save that subscription, rather than following up before the complaint to make sure that they're happy and we'll continue to pay on a month to month basis. That's the biggest thing. The next biggest thing I've done
Starting point is 00:23:34 is instead of being greedy and trying to keep all the money for myself, all of my sales reps, when they bring on a client, when they continue to pay on a monthly basis, they also get a piece of that as commission every single month, 10% to 15% a month that they'll get from whatever they're paying on a monthly subscription.
Starting point is 00:23:50 Therefore, that team member's job, that sales team members job is to go ahead and build that relationship with the client, talk to them via text, in order for them to keep getting paid out every single month. And what that does is it changes up the system. Number one, the sales rep is more motivated because they're going to stay with you. They get paid every single month.
Starting point is 00:24:07 They're going to treat the client better because they know they're getting paid for it as well versus if you're just saying do it anyways and you're not rewarding them for it. So definitely that has helped a lot with retention. And then other than that, the way that I built up subscriptions is you need to make sure that your subscription is filled with value in ways that they want to continue to pay for it because they know it's a need, not just a want, right? So in my case, one of my subscriptions is to make sure that we're continuing to help them push out their posts, make sure that we maximize their reach, get them, you know, a lot of engagement from high quality profiles and all this stuff.
Starting point is 00:24:40 So they know if they want to keep having the highest quality personal brand and people are going to look at them, their page is going to stand out. This is a small investment. I tell them it's like a light bill in your office. You know, might as well just pay it, keep it on and you're going to have the best conversion rates. Because at the end of the day, all the time you put in, you want to make sure you get it. getting the best conversion rates for that time. Dude, dude, this golden nuggets, man. The reason I want to share this as well,
Starting point is 00:25:01 I don't know what's happening. Like, I know I made a joke earlier on about what the heck is water happening in Miami that's making all these entrepreneurial years, but I feel like content creators in Miami have kind of cracked like the code. I don't know what it is, but they are always staying relevant. Like whether it's you, I had 10 at Chedda
Starting point is 00:25:18 the year in the studio, whether it's that other sales girl, like Shelby girl. And then there's like the other like, influencer trainer who's running, with like the... Oh yeah, he's questioning. Ashton. You know what I'm trying to say?
Starting point is 00:25:29 I feel like the Miami market. You know what I'm saying? You guys have just cracked the niche, which is kind of leading to my next question because I feel like unless you miss the beast where you're just making a post and it's reaching 100 million people within the first three seconds,
Starting point is 00:25:43 how can people become relevant in terms of like their digital marketing and obviously with paid ads? But what are the strategies that keep people relevant in social media? So definitely a lot of posting, right so on instagram i post a little bit less because i treat it as my quality page but that's like my resume because one thing with instagram is like a lot of people when they look at your instagram for the
Starting point is 00:26:03 first time they're only going to look at those first six to nine posts so if you're posting nonstop and it's not that relevant it's going to help the algorithm it's going to help the new people i can find out about you right there's always pros and cons but then maybe all the money that you're putting in like you paid $150 for this crazy video edit and then now no one's really seeing it because it's like the 20th post you know what i mean so i kind of have that philosophy which could be wrong again, but I make up for it by mass posting on other places, right? So like on TikTok, I post a lot on there, you know, two, two, three times a day, just selfie stuff, stuff that doesn't take you a long time to edit. But if you don't really care about like the resume stuff,
Starting point is 00:26:37 how I did, I would just recommend posting a lot, posting with intention, not just posting two posts. You want to make sure you're using hooks, right, things that are going to catch those attention in the first three seconds. Because if you're not, you're not maximizing the opportunity to go viral, right? Everything is a system. Everything is a science. So you need to try. try to replicate that science as much as possible. One of the easiest ways that we have ability to do so these days is just by mimicking other people, right? So you can go on the explore page, you can scroll through reels, and you'll see viral concepts that you can recreate. And most likely that viral concept that you're looking at and thinking of recreating was
Starting point is 00:27:11 recreated by that person, right? So people are like, oh, I don't want to steal, I don't, you know, but the greatest people steal, right, in the right way, right? Recreating it in your own way. But you don't want to try to reinvent the wheel when you've already seen a trend that's going viral, recreate that trend in your own way. And if you stay doing that consistently, there is no way that you won't make money and that you won't go viral. Like right now, there's this one trend that literally anyone that does it, if it applies to you, obviously you're not going to make yourself a little like a fool. But there's this trend of like basically there's these workers. Let's say you work at a construction company. So if you have a construction company, you can post it as a
Starting point is 00:27:45 construction company and it'll go viral. But it's basically like the employee saying like when your boss follows you on Instagram. So then it's like the employee like posting only pictures like working super hard, you know, helping my teammate. And then it has like the Snapchat text there. So it looks like organic like if it was on Snapchat posting it or on Instagram and stuff. And so literally I've seen pages that have like 500 followers do that and get like 2 million views. So if you replicate that consistently, not that specific one, but videos just like that and you continuously do it over time, you will go viral. You will stay relevant. And it's all about finding that sweet spot. Like Ashton Hall, he found that, you know, the ASMR and the morning routine
Starting point is 00:28:24 just worked. So the second it started working, he started pushing on that consistently. So once you find that sweet spot, once you see it's working, just press on the gas and keep staying consistent every day. That's the biggest key. And what's crazy with the Ashton thing speaking about that is the fact that again, one of those situations with like Luke Belma, whether you like him or hate him, because people try to mimic him. It was kind of like a bantering where they're trying to make fun of him, like a morning routine. Oh, he just jumped up in the air and he landed there after two minutes, but it's like you're actually helping build he's brain.
Starting point is 00:28:51 It's publicity at the end of the day. 100%. And I think that's what worked with Donald Trump in winning the election because people are like, oh, you will never win because of so and so you'll never what I'm trying to say is that publicity is still publicity, whether it's bad or whether it's good. And which kind of want to go with just a follow up with the algorithm. I know you
Starting point is 00:29:07 said posting and following trends, you know, don't reinvent the wheel. It's not broken. Don't fix it. However, would you suggest TikTok? Because I know like Instagram is a resume. Instagram is like, you know, that's why I always have like, yes, I have like themes and so forth. But would you say TikTok algorithm is a bit more like open to like let people trend?
Starting point is 00:29:26 Because I know Instagram sometimes people struggle like, oh my gosh, I'm posting, I'm posting, I'm not getting anything. I'd say a lot of people that say they're posting and posting and not getting anything. Oftentimes they haven't replicated continuing to not try to reinvent the wheel and posting things that are already going viral. That's the first thing. Because if you're just posting a picture and it's not going viral, or you're just posting, you know, a podcast, but maybe, you know, that podcast wasn't something
Starting point is 00:29:48 controversial or something that really let something to go viral. It's not going to go viral. You need to always think precisely on each post. Is this going to go viral? Is this something that's going to make people share? The next thing, TikTok, I think, and Instagram right now, I'd say they're like equal because Instagram knows that a lot of people left to TikTok because of that. It used to be like that. Going viral on TikTok was much easier for the first few years from like 2019 and 2023, I'd say. But now the last two years, like if you look at Ashton Hall, for example, his videos on Instagram and TikTok, you'll see they're both getting around the same numbers or anyone that's double posting on both platforms are kind of doing the same. Sometimes it won't be the case, maybe one or the other. But even there's cases when Instagram does way better than the same video on TikTok.
Starting point is 00:30:29 So I wouldn't really say, I would just say use both as much as possible, right? Because the more you post, the more opportunity you have to go viral. Again, it's just a numbers game. Another thing, too, to mention about Instagram, which I think of, but I still don't. don't do it because of the reasons I said, but maybe I should, but one of the things you can do on Instagram to basically avoid, you know, keeping the resume status of the page is you can basically put any videos that are reels into just the reels column. So people can only see them if they're going to the reals column, not on the grid. So that's something else you can do if you want to mass
Starting point is 00:31:01 post on your Instagram and keep it quality. And I agree with that. Only thing sometimes that when people get discouraged, you end up saying people that the last post in 2012, I'm like, listen, you got to just keep going. You know what I'm saying? People. That's the thing with Instagram is that, like, if people feel like they're not trending or they're not, like, really, like, you know, in the algorithm, people just easily give up sometimes easily. I mean, Ashton has been doing this for a while before you end up, like, blowing up. Yes, he blew up the last three months, like in tens, like in millions, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:31:30 But it's been a level of consistency in doing what it's been doing. Finally, it caught the attention, and then it started trending. I mean, last year, was Hawk Tour. You know what I'm saying? Where the heck is she, by the way? I think she had like some, some scandal with like one of the meme coins. Oh, yes, that's true. In November time.
Starting point is 00:31:46 Okay, the dying out now. But yeah, I mean, again, it's about being consistent until you find that sweet spot. I was just looking at some new kid that popped up on my for you page, which he did something pretty cool. He's basically like doing teaching videos and like what you should do on Instagram and all that stuff. But instead of it just being talking to the camera, he started doing a rap while he's teaching it, which is a pretty cool, unique concept. Unique concept. I went and I was like, 12,000. followers, but this video I'm seeing here has like 500K views. When did he start doing this? He just
Starting point is 00:32:15 started doing it in March. Before for March, he was posting for almost two years. Regular talking videos, each video, 500 views, 600. Now he keeps posting because he realized he found the sweet spot. He keeps pressure on the gas. Each video is getting around 50k, 100K organic because he found a sweet spot, right? And the algorithm is just pushing that. So it's about being consistent, keep trying to follow the algorithm. A lot of these people tell them, do try to not reinvent the wheel for six months, I promise they'll go viral. I promise, guaranteed they'll go viral. If they try to already mimic other posts that already have gone viral and they continue with that doing two to three times posting a day, they'll definitely go viral. And that viral video will
Starting point is 00:32:52 motivate them to keep posting 100%. But again, yeah, I love what you said. The only thing sometimes I think it's happening is that people end up having a massive spike and then sometimes end up just becoming like irrelevant as well. Some people have become super consistent over time. Obviously, like the Tates and like, like, you know, I know you mentioned Luke Belma. People have kind of like cracked the code where they always somewhat staying relevant. You know, I had, I don't know if you remember COVID time, there was a guy who was doing the Junebug dance. You know what I'm saying? I don't know if you know. Yeah, yeah, no, I know. You know what I'm saying? And so what, how do you like try and like stay consistent here, even if it's not like the same form of trend? Because yes,
Starting point is 00:33:32 you kind of like mimicking what is the hot button for people right now, but in trying to be like an Alex Hermology where you can just post and it's still going to get the exact recircling clients long. Well, yeah, the next biggest part to staying relevant is also something that has become very popular, which is clipping, right? So that's the next biggest thing because if you have, like Luke at one point had like, I think in the year he blew up, he had like 70,000 posts about him, right? So when there's so many posts going out on a consistent basis, they're going to keep being
Starting point is 00:34:01 in that loophole of virality, being in your face, staying relevant all the time because maybe you're watching a video that was posted three months ago, but it's still trending, right? All those videos keep compounding. You may have posted them a long time ago, a year ago, and they're still getting movement today. So if you have 70,000 videos that are just growing by 1%, right, you're still compounding and staying relevant. So definitely clipping is one of the biggest ways to do that. The other part is like- How do you get people to clip you? So you pay for it, right? So you can pay anyone roughly like some people pay $10 for every 10,000 views, stuff like that. And so that's kind of a system or $10 per 1,000 views. Some people pay. So
Starting point is 00:34:38 some people pay more or less, obviously the more you pay, more people are going to want to work with you. But that's something easy. We offer that at the agency, right? So we have clipping systems people that we can just mass posts or content on many pages. And then obviously the more pages, the more likely to go viral. But at the end of the day, for some people, if their content isn't very viral, it may be an expensive cost for them because they're not really seeing that virality happen right away. And even, sometimes when you go viral, it doesn't always necessarily lead to clients as well because it may not be the exact target audience that you want. And again, what you were saying, when people have that big spike and then kind of plateau, you need to remember that content is good because it's free.
Starting point is 00:35:17 It's free marketing, right? It costs you nothing to make a video and maybe get some leads from it. That's why content is so important. That's why it's talked about so much because you can make millions of dollars without any advertising. Back then, that wasn't the case. You need to spend money on billboards, TVs, all these different things. But now, again, we have ads, right? So we have forms of paid traffic.
Starting point is 00:35:36 So if you feel like you're plateauing, that means stay consistent with content, but realize that whatever comes from that content is a bonus. You need to develop a system in your business where you have a client acquisition system. You know that for every $500 that you put in, you're getting $1,000 back. And so that's what you need to start building and focusing on when you feel like you're having that plateau and keep posting. Stay consistent. But at the end of the day, you want to just see all that money as a bonus and still have a proven
Starting point is 00:36:00 system through client acquisition. At our agency, the way that we scaled up to these numbers was by spending around 50K to 70K a month just on paid traffic to acquire new clients, right? If we didn't do that, I probably wouldn't generate the numbers we do. I generate those numbers consistently because I know how to generate them by investing to get them, right? And you answered my next question because I was going to talk about the paid ads. I want to give an example with me. So like I said, my YouTube has been consistent because what I've been doing, I've been very specific at who I interview. You know what I'm saying? Because it naturally ended up like drawing. that attention when I end up like either collaborating or adding that.
Starting point is 00:36:33 So I started with Andy Elliott, I did Keaton Hoskins, Jimmy Rex, all these guys that were super big in Utah, Arizona side, which was like my market, which was easy to resonate. But then I only started lately doing like the paid ads through like YouTube. And then I was like, what the heck? Like the conversion rates getting crazier. Yes, because I'm obviously I was monetized after three episodes, but I'm at the point I'm like, had I done this earlier? Because sometimes people are just lacking on like investing.
Starting point is 00:36:58 And I've done this earlier. I wouldn't be on like certain K amount of subscribers. Yes, I got monetized quicker, but I would have attracted more people inside there as well. And people are often hesitant over like, you know, paid ads as well. I know you have very experienced that. Like, can you just, I know you kind of stress on that? Can you kind of go a bit in depth with like paid ads and the importance of that as well? Definitely.
Starting point is 00:37:16 So again, obviously paid ads is the most important thing. And it can also be other things like we have mass outreach systems, which is also, again, it could be paid ads because you're paying for the traffic, right? You're building a system to do so. And at the end of the day. and it's genuine and it's like authentic traffic as well. It's coming through. 100%. But any form of paid is extremely important because you need to, again, have a client acquisition system. A lot of people pray at night to generate 20K a month. Build the system to generate 20K
Starting point is 00:37:44 figure out how you can put 5K a month into your ads and get 20K out of that. Praying, sure, having faith is good. It's important. I have nothing against it. I pray as well. But I make sure that when I pray, I also follow through with my actions to generate that with a proven system, not just hoping and guessing, right? So that's definitely the biggest thing you need to have if you want to grow your business consistently is generate that client equity system. Now, how to go about it? Number one, there's a few things you can do. You can generate a free email list so you can build up a good lookalike audience of your targeted data and people that are in your communities and people that are following you and all that stuff. So then you take those lookalike audiences, bring it in. You can also scrape email lists from other places and generate a lookalike audience with that to get your.
Starting point is 00:38:24 targeted data and then what you want to do is you want to consistently generate new creatives because the way to succeed in ads you always need to be funneling it with new creative so once a week just dedicated to making new ads because you don't want to get too comfortable maybe you have a $100 cost for acquisition and you do a new ad that you thought was an average ad all of a sudden it goes down to $40 you're making 60% more right and it's a huge difference into your business and allows you to scale more and invest more into ads be more free with it so definitely being creative and consistent with those ad creatives and then the next part about it is having hooks in the ads well. So there's many different hooks. A hook can be you talking directly to the camera,
Starting point is 00:38:58 or it can be maybe like some of those that you've seen where it's like a meme of somebody slipping and falling. And then you start off after three seconds. The fourth second is you on the floor starting the video that way in a viral hook, right? So all these different ways that get people's attention are definitely things that you want to do with ads and tests. The next thing is you want to test different landing pages, right? So you want to test a landing page that goes to a calendar. You want to test just sending people directly to the DMs. You want to test sending people to a free funnel and then email and creating email marketing campaigns and then getting them to book a call through that because they may be more inclined
Starting point is 00:39:28 to join from something free because people don't want to spend money right away. You can also run ads just to build an affiliate team as well. So instead of looking for customers, look for people that will bring new customers. Right. So there's many different ways to explore with that. But definitely just to conclude that, you know, a lot of creatives using hooks in your ads, testing different audiences, testing different landing pages of where you're taking people. And then once, if you do take people to the DMs, make sure that you're not just using automations, you can have things set up like ManiChat or automations and go high level, but you also want to make sure you have manual physical appointment setters too because
Starting point is 00:39:59 AI still has a lot of issues these days. It's not perfect. And you want to really have genuine conversations with people and that's going to lead to having a higher conversion rate. Brother, what's next? Are you going to be the president of the U.S.? Can I be your vice president? I'll be your DEI appointment. I appreciate that. I thank you. No, this is very educational, man. I'm glad. I feel like, I mean, digital marketing it's you guys teach this in that you have an academy where you teach this kind of stuff as well yeah so basically we have all of our services that are done for you and we have a lot of different services and then for anyone that buys even we have services
Starting point is 00:40:33 as low as $150 a month and then the minimum is like 1500 for the standard higher packages that go all the way to up to 100k but basically every single person no matter what they sign up for even if it's just a video edit or anything on the website they get a full course with 140 videos and those videos are all updated like every six months with brand new videos brand new concepts All super high quality. So yeah, anyone that signs it for literally anything gets that full course. I don't sell it to not be the guy selling a course. And we just offer it for free included.
Starting point is 00:41:01 I'm curious about I want to get the clips one. Like how much you guys charge for the clips one? Because my content's relatively decent. My YouTube, my shorts do well on YouTube as well. Because what happens that the shorts end up like attracting people to watch the full video. And I've been recirculating the same form of people. So like if you look at the videos that I get, I have a high retention of people. And you can see when people are actually, when the spike happens,
Starting point is 00:41:22 That's one thing about YouTube analytics. But the problem is I'm not patient with my steady growth. I don't want to like shop shoot, but I want to grow. And I feel like clips are so important because I always see like Belmar and I see the Tate's. I'm like, there's like 500 Tate pages. Yeah, yeah, exactly. You click on one Tate page and you end up getting five things of Andrews. And it's recent stuff like when he was in Miami or like, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:41:45 So they stay relevant. They stay rather than. So what's the clips? Yeah, we charge like 5,000 for like 10 pages, three posts a day. And then obviously if you have viral content, like you say, videos that are already going viral singularly, it's, you know, easy to see an ROI. And then there's other things that we add on top of that. Like I said, you know, there's a lot of people that can go viral, but not necessarily make money from it. And so that's the biggest thing.
Starting point is 00:42:05 You want to develop those systems where you also help yourself make money from it. So what are some of those systems? A lot of times there's a lot of people in the comments that are high quality people commenting, but you went viral, you're so happy you're celebrating you on viral. You're not even maximizing that data. You want to make sure that you DM all those people, try to get on a call with them. schedule something, be genuine, you know, but actually communicate with those people because maybe they commented, but they didn't even follow you and they're never going to see your content again. So you want to make sure that you maximize every piece of data that comes in. So that's other things that we also offer and help with. Like we can message all the people that are commenting on every single post, every single day for you, all that stuff. Okay, now, not this. I'm sorry guys, I'm being selfish. It's not educational for me right now. So now we spoke about it's 5, 10, 10 pages and 3 a day. And how long is that 5,010 pages? That's like 31 days. Yeah. Okay. So for 31 days and then in my situation, in my situation, okay, in my situation being, I'm interviewing business, these entrepreneur CEOs as well, what are some of the stuff that you would focus on for me? Like, what viral, like, would it be like hoax? Would it be, I know you should have a lot of nuggets in your episode and I have that a lot of there. Like, what would you guys focus on? So we would take, like, a lot of times if you already have videos going viral, right, we want to recreate those videos. So sometimes we can just add a different hook into it or add, you know, a different font or, you know, a different font or, add different B-roll into it to make it a unique video,
Starting point is 00:43:24 because that's one of the things we need to do, make every video unique to have the best performance on the algorithm. So definitely things like that, I would say, are important to just recreate videos that have already gone viral really helps. But if not, it's just mass posting at the end of the day, right? The more you post, if it's the right stuff, and we think that it has the right hook and it's going to go viral, we just continuously post those videos.
Starting point is 00:43:45 And if you do that continuously with content that's good, it's going to go viral, right? So that's basically the strategy. It's just like having that system in place, testing it out. If it doesn't work for you, let's think of about a different strategy for the next month because there's still a lot of things that we can do to guarantee you DMs. That's just one of the ways, right? And it does have to do with your content because we have some clients and maybe for them, they get a 20x ROI, but then maybe someone else gets a 5x because their content wasn't as good. You know what I'm saying? Awesome stuff. And with that, by the way, guys,
Starting point is 00:44:13 out of all the guests that I've interviewed so far in Miami, when I DM Dre, and I was like, listen, I'm going to send you a Google invite calendar of the studio and all the details, and I'm going to email you the questions, and he responded, I don't do questions. Only two people don't do that, Dre and Donald J. Trump. I said, yeah, brother, just asking the questions. Because a lot of people in this industry, as you mentioned, you know, all these people look successful on social media. Anyone can look successful, rent a car or, you know, put their entire bank account and have
Starting point is 00:44:46 $5,000 left into making it look like they have. have money and those people, you know, they're scripting everything, right? Every single video on their page is scripted. None of my videos are scripted. Everything is just being real, authentic, which means that I don't need to see questions before. I can answer everything on the spot because, you know, my true self. Even the book was feeling the energy. The book was feeling the energy, you know, there's something that resonates in this room right now. Now, before I kind of like just talk a bit about soccer right now, because I have a few things that I don't agree with you that we have to get off the chest right now.
Starting point is 00:45:19 But what's the hardest part about being an entrepreneur person for you? I'd say the hardest part about being entrepreneur is it depends. I'll start about this. If you're speaking about the beginning, right, if we're influencing someone now on becoming an entrepreneur, or if you're already a successful entrepreneur, there's two different cases. I'll touch on them a little bit, both.
Starting point is 00:45:40 So in the beginning, in your first three years, when you're figuring it out, you're finding that winning product, you're finding that offer that's going to take you to the next level. of course, you're going to work harder than ever, right? Because a lot of people, they can choose to work a nine to five, and you're going to work a lot less in your nine to five than when you try to become a full-time entrepreneur in those first three years.
Starting point is 00:45:58 You have to work every single day. You're going to work at 7 a.m. to 1 a.m., right, how I was doing and still do to this day. But once you start making a lot of money, if you find that winning offer, that winning product, the reason why people choose to be an entrepreneur instead of work 9 to 5 is because now you can use those profits to start employing people to allow you to diversify
Starting point is 00:46:17 and take some time off the business if you want to and get paid even when you're not physically working. So it gets better if you end up making money and seeing success. If not, you know, it's one of the most torturous things ever because you have your back on the wall. You don't have a guaranteed income. You're sometimes making a lot less than people that are working the 9 to 5, right? You think it's glorious that you're not working a 9 to 5. But if you would have worked that 9 to 5 for this last year where you had no success, you would have had way more money in the bank account working that 9 to 5.
Starting point is 00:46:42 So in a lot of cases, it's not the right move for people. but if you're willing to eat dirt and maybe not see success for three years or some people five years, seven years, it really all depends until you find that winning offer. For me, thankfully, it was a little sooner that I landed on the agency, which led me to become a millionaire really fast, but it's not always the case for everyone. Then once you are successful, the next biggest thing you need to focus on, and I learned this from Ty Lopez, which he probably learned it from someone else as well, but this was like six years ago when I learned it, which is love, health, wealth, and happiness.
Starting point is 00:47:10 So love doesn't always mean that you need to have a relationship or a spouse currently in your life. you can change that for when you don't, for giving extra love to your friends and your family, keeping those people close, devoting time to them, showing interest, taking care of them. Health is obviously extremely important once you make money because if you have bad health and you end up in the hospital, you're not going to care about digits in your bank account. It means nothing to you, right? So absolutely nothing. And then happiness, you need to make sure that your mindset's in a good place all the time.
Starting point is 00:47:33 You're doing the proper morning routine, right? You're not just staying in your bed until 1 p.m. You're not smoking and drinking the night before, leading you to an unsuccessful and unproductive day. all of these things are crucial in order to have a real happy, successful, balanced life. So you need to make sure you're watering each of those plants every single day, those four key things right there in order to truly be happy. The next thing is even when you are watering those things, there's going to be things in life that are keeping you unhappy at times,
Starting point is 00:48:00 but you need to always bring perspective back to it as well. So when you feel like, wow, I have everything, but I really want a girlfriend right now and I don't have one, right? I hate, no, not I hate my life, but my life is not as good as I would like, to be because I'm still missing that one thing. You need to always remember that that one thing is going to come to you, but the time you're wasting right now saying that you don't have that thing is holding you back from living to your full potential in this present moment. So you need to make sure you enjoy every single present moment and believe that that's going to come to you,
Starting point is 00:48:26 but not let those little things affect you because of everything you do have, compared to people that are living in third world countries and literally have to hike three miles to get dirty water, not even clean water, right? So you need to use perspective to always align yourself with those things. If you do that, you're going to have a much better time being an entrepreneur. If you don't do that, you're probably going to hate it. You're going to go into depression because you can have money, you can have all these things. But if you're not balancing and taking care of everything in your life, like I spend a lot of time with my parents. And I could be saying, I don't have time to spend time with you because I want to make $100 million right now. I want to
Starting point is 00:48:56 make a billion dollars right now. But at the end of the day, that's not the way that I grew up. You know, I grew up to have money to be able to enjoy the other things and live a life of freedom. And I'm grateful and happy and very grounded of where I'm at. Sure, I want to keep going further, but I take every single day slow and appreciate the present moment. Brother, wow, man. Just answer this last question. Honestly, are you like Nicola Tesla reincarnated? No, sir, no, sir, no sir.
Starting point is 00:49:21 Dramidichi, unique. One-on-one. I appreciate the words, honestly. Thank you so much. No, thank you, man. I appreciate everything you shared. I appreciate all the golden nuggets. It's very educational, very enlightening.
Starting point is 00:49:34 And again, no questions were sent to him in advance, so I appreciate that. Now I'm going to mention, I don't know, how recently you're watching soccer. Are you still watching it like right now? Like you're watching like... So I recommend this to a lot of people. If you watch a lot of sports, develop the habit of just watching the highlights on 2x or just 1.5x. But you still watch it, right? But I recommend to the people not to watch it, right?
Starting point is 00:49:55 Until you make a ton of money, don't watch it because people waste so much time every single Saturday. They could have a work day. Three hours go by. They're watching the TV. So get used to watching the highlights. At the end of the day, you're not getting paid to watch them, right? So I sometimes do. I'll be honest.
Starting point is 00:50:09 I'll go to an inner Miami game or something like that. But honestly, I've developed a habit of not watching the game, just looking at the highlights, looking at the score after, because you're going to see the best parts, and you're not going to waste three hours every day because you're also leaving attention residue, right? So when you watch that game, you think, oh, once it's done in two hours, I'm going to be good.
Starting point is 00:50:25 But really, watching that tired you out, it made you lazy, made you lay in bed, it made you all the things you had in the schedule, you're like, I'm going to do it tomorrow, right? So, but continue. I didn't want to go too off topic. I'm going to ask, I'm going to give two strikers. You have to choose one and eliminate one. Let's do it.
Starting point is 00:50:42 Let's do it. All right. But you must, don't be biased, all right? I'm going to start off with the easy one. So it's going to be Lewis Suarez. Suarez. Go, go, go, go, go, go. Lewis Suarez, I'm going to, I'm going to put a Uruguayan guy right now.
Starting point is 00:50:58 Okay, okay. Lewis Suarez and Darwin Nunes. I already knew. I already knew. I got to say that. Louis Swares, because Darwin Nunez misses too many goals, man. He does it for Liverpool also. Louis Suarez, Lewandoski.
Starting point is 00:51:14 Swaris. Anyone Swares, because that's who I was related to when I was like a striker. That was always my number one. Louis Swares, Karin Benzima. Benzima, I don't even watch him. In Saudi Arabia, I don't even know if he's still playing. Ballandoor winner. No, no, no. Spores, Swares. All right. Now, this is the last two ones right now.
Starting point is 00:51:30 Now, let's add one more. My favorite, like I grew up watching him. Louis Swares, Wayne Rooney. Swares, man. Give me someone else. That's not Swarres. Bro, I say, don't get this wrong, please. Louis Suarez, Cristiano, Goat, Rinaldo.
Starting point is 00:51:48 Rinaldo, a man, you. After man, you hated him, Swarzed all the way. But who are you choosing? As a better player or what? Who I like more? Yeah. No, Spores. And then Louis Suarez, Macy.
Starting point is 00:52:02 That's a tough one. I got to go to Swarze, but I love Messi a lot. Almost the same, but... All right. I got to stay loyal. It's the Uruguayan blood. There we go. If you could let our guests know where they could get a hold of you,
