When building an audience, optimize for 3 things:

Volume
➡ How many followers?

Affinity
➡ How much do they prefer your tweet to the same one from someone else?

Recursive power
➡ How influential are your followers toward your goals?
Here's how to do marketing:

People follow to be entertained.

Entertain people & remind them that you exist.

You'll be top of mind when they want to sell an e-book or are frustrated by a slow check-out.
Don't make marketing more complicated than it is.

Forget funnels.

@mkobach just wants @Fast to be present to more people & knows 2M > 1M.

@tobydoyhowell just wants people to see MB everywhere & realize that the Brew is inevitable
Fact: people are more relatable than brands

Building your company around a personal brand(s) is a competitive advantage.

@Fast encourages & even helps people to build their personal brands
Marketing is about going to where people are, as much as it is about people coming to you.

Your customers might not be on Twitter, or Clubhouse, or Reddit. But if they are, find the exact community they're a part of.
Creating content is a commitment to consistency. If you can't be consistent, it's likely not for you.
Start out spontaneous, but become strategic. Find tweet opportunities in conversations & on Clubhouse.

But tweet carefully & consider all the perspectives: a single word can decide the success of a tweet.
Finally, selfless people are the most selfish. They know what they want & say so.

In that spirit, please retweet if you enjoyed.

I promised my wife I'd buy her coffee for a week if none of @tobydoyhowell, @shl, @mkobach, or @Julian retweeted.

Reading this article, the story sounds pretty wild. But I spent a weird amount of time with Martin Shkreli, and I’m not surprised the journalist fell in love w him

A few years back my team built an app called Blab. It was like clubhouse before clubhouse.


When he first joined the app I had no idea who he was. I just saw that his live streams instantly had 3-4K viewers. More than anyone on our tiny platform.

I googled him and it came up: “Martin Shkreli, most hated man in America”

I assumed he was bad news

And he was... but also he wasn’t.

He was a douchebag, but he was in on the joke. He was a dick, but he was also very entertaining.

In the mornings he would live stream himself analyzing stocks or walking through drug discovery pathways.

In the afternoon he’d let people call in and debate him live on air. A CNN reporter tried to get him to go on TV, he refused, and said debate me here on Blab, no edits, no tv time limits.

At night he’d host late night convos - and eventually fall asleep on cam

The guy was a pain in the ass but man he drove traffic.

We had big celebs like Tony Robbins, the Jonas brothers etc... he outperformed them all.

At one point he was bringing in 100k users per month directly to his channel. And Bc he was so entertaining, they stuck.

(1) Kushner is worth $324 million.
(2) Since 2016, Kushner has connived, with Saudi help, to force the Qataris (literally at a ship's gunpoint) to "loan" him $900 million.
(3) This is consistent with the Steele dossier.
(4) Kushner is unlikely to ever have to pay the "loan" back.


2/ So as you read about his tax practices, you should take from it that it's practices of this sort that ensure that he's able to extort money from foreign governments while Trump is POTUS without ever having to pay the money back. It also explains why he's in the Saudis' pocket.

3/ It's why the Saudis *say* he's in their pocket. It's why emoluments and federal bribery statutes matter. It's why Kushner was talking to the Saudi Crown Prince the day before the murdered Washington Post journalist was taken. It's why the Trump administration now does nothing.
