We got 32.7 million views on YouTube this month. Here is how. So, I posted 35,000 pieces of content this year. We did a $100 million book launch for $100 million money models. In 72 hours, 3 days, we did over $100 million in sales.
Learn a 4-part SPCL framework to build influence through content, focusing on status, power, credibility, and likeness.
Key Takeaways
- Influence is built by stacking status, power, credibility, and likeness.
- Controlling scarce resources grants status, but power comes from consistent, reinforced actions.
- Credibility requires observable proof and third-party validation.
- Likeness increases influence by creating relatability and shared values.
- Producing large amounts of targeted content is critical for attracting the right audience.
Summary
- The video explains how posting 35,000 pieces of content contributed to 32.7 million YouTube views and a $100 million book launch.
- The core framework introduced is SPCL, which stands for Status, Power, Credibility, and Likeness, essential for building influence.
- Status is defined as controlling scarce resources that others want, which grants influence in specific environments.
- Power arises from 'say-do correspondence' where consistent results from advice or actions increase compliance and influence.
- Credibility is demonstrated through observable proof and third-party validation, enhancing trust and authority.
- Likeness or relatability involves sharing values, behaviors, or demographics that resonate with the audience.
- Combining all four elements maximizes influence and increases the likelihood of audience compliance with requests.
- Examples include a bartender controlling drinks (status), a successful book launch (status and credibility), and giving valuable advice (power).
- Audience demographics affect likeness, as shown by differences in male and female followers based on speaker identity and content.
- The video emphasizes creating content that attracts the right customers and stacking SPCL elements for brand building.

Speaker A
The issue that most people struggle with is that you're making not enough content, number one, and the types of content that you're making are not attracting the types of customers you want. The promise that I have for you
Speaker A
today is that I will show you a framework that I have called SPCL, like special if you want, but it's how to build influence rather than how to get as many views as possible or anything like that. All right? All right, but
Speaker A
it's a four-part framework and I want to break down each of the four components for you so that you can think about how you want to approach making content. All right, and building a brand in general.
Speaker A
SPCL, these are letters and hopefully overhead cam works. All right, so S P C L. So what do these actually stand for?
Speaker A
All right, so number one is status. And this is why you hear me talk about proof so much. But how do you define status from an operational perspective? For those of you who are new to the channel, I like to operationalize things. Meaning
Speaker A
like I like to look at objective reality and describe how you would see it with your eyes rather than try and put a whole bunch of like emotional words around stuff because these are the like that type of language is what confused
Speaker A
me for a very long time when I was coming up. And it was only after I started defining things by what I could see, what I could observe did reality feel like sharper, more crisp to me. And my ability to predict what was going to
Speaker A
happen next increased by a lot. And so this is why I I talk in this way. So how do I find status? So status is someone who controls reinforcers in a given environment. So that's a little bit fancy word, but fundamentally if you
Speaker A
control the good stuff that people want, then you will have status no matter what it is, right? And so the simplest example I have is like if you go to a bar and it's a busy bar and there's a
Speaker A
bartender and you have to get the bartender attention in order to get a drink or booze, that guy in that moment has status. He controls a scarce resource, right? But if that guy walks out of the bar no longer controlling
Speaker A
that scarce resource, he does not have the same status or even close to it, right? like outside of the bar, he's not getting tips every every single 5 seconds when he like moves his hands a little bit and like says something nice.
Speaker A
People aren't waving money at him as he walks in the street. Of course not. It's because he has status in one condition and he doesn't have another. Now, what's interesting about all four of these elements that I'm going to break down,
Speaker A
they all can work independently, but the idea is that you want all four to be stacked together. And this is what gives you the most influence, right? So, like any of these four on their own would give you influence. Like that bartender,
Speaker A
if he just says that, he would have some level of influence. And I'll give you a different example of this. If a kid inherits money, right, they're going to have uh status, right? Like if you just if you have money, even if you didn't
Speaker A
earn it, even if you didn't anything, if you have money, you will have some degree of status because you control something other people want. Period.
Speaker A
That's how it works. All right? But would that kid who has money have the same status as a kid who has money who also gave you, you know, 10 different cryptocoin picks that all popped off, right? Well, if he gave you 10 different
Speaker A
picks and you followed them and they all popped off, how much more influence would that person have over them saying, "Hey, you should put money in this." Or, "Hey, you should, you know, give me money for XYZ or whatever it is."
Speaker A
Obviously, I'm talking money because I'm I'm a business person first, but like think about how much more influence version two would have with just two of those things versus version one. That's the difference. But if you have all
Speaker A
four, that's when you get you become super sad. So, status is number one. So, you control scarce resources. Power is number two. I would say if I had to only pick one, I would pick power. And I'll explain why.
Speaker A
Power comes from something in the behavioral dynamics world called say do correspondence. What that means is if I say something and then you do it and then a good thing occurs, a reinforcing event happens afterwards. You are more
Speaker A
likely to comply with a following request. Right? So said differently. I gave you the example of the guy who says, "Hey, here's 10 stock picks." You buy them and then a good thing happens.
Speaker A
The thing goes up. Great. So that person has status and power which is why they are more influential than the trust fund kid who just has money. And so to the same degree for many of you who are
Speaker A
trying to make content one it's like okay status I want to demonstrate that I control a scarce resource that some people might want right um and so what makes this a little bit more muddied is that sometimes one event can check
Speaker A
multiple boxes. And so I'll give you a simple example. When we launched the book we did 100 million plus in sales.
Speaker A
That in and of itself, me having money from the event gives me status. Me saying, "Hey, you can launch stuff in this way gives me credibility, right?
Speaker A
Because I show that I have an event, I have something that has happened as a result of me doing it, that gives me third party credibility. There's something that you can observe with your eyes, right? The reason that my ads do
Speaker A
well when I have my, you know, $10 million building behind me is like, oh, well, that's hard to fake, right? And so, you have credibility there. And so, one event like selling a company can give you money. It can give you
Speaker A
credibility. And then if I give people directions on how they can do things that are similar and then good things happen, then all of a sudden you get power. And then the last is likeness. I know I'm skipping around, but hey, we're
Speaker A
live. We're having a good time. All right. And so credibility is number three. And I'm going to go in more detail on all these. All right. And then likeness.
Speaker A
So what's likeness? So likeness is that you see some this is some people say relatability. This can be both uh psychological in terms of you share similar values with this person. you like you like their vibe, whatever you
Speaker A
want to say, right? You like their behavior set and it and that behavior set matches to people who have been positive in your life in the past. Or they literally just look like you, right? So like Leila and I could talk
Speaker A
about the exact same stuff, but she's a girl and so she's going to have more chicks who follow her than me. And for the for the few ladies who do follow me, I appreciate you. I really do. Uh but I
Speaker A
have like an 89% male audience. And so maybe it's it's because of the topic.
Speaker A
But I would think, you know, at my onset, I think, oh, it's because I talk about money and I talk about business, that's why I have a more male audience.
Speaker A
But Laya, I think, is like 54% female. and she talks about almost exclusively money and business. Um obviously she talked about some mindset stuff too but I I say this to say okay if we have these four things and these are the
Speaker A
things that create influence and I would define influence as um high likelihood of compliance with requests. So what does that mean? So, if I say, "Hey, you know, grab my new book." Or I say, "Hey, come to this webinar." "Hey, I'm going
Speaker A
live. Like, come check it out." Or, "Hey, you should come to a workshop." Whatever it is, right? You make some sort of solicitation, and it could be like or subscribe, it doesn't matter.
Speaker A
Like there's levels of how quot big of an ask something is. If anybody's played like a video game, it's like you have like a role for like Dungeons and Dragons, and it like depends on how how charismatic, ho
Speaker A
have, how high of a role or how low of a role rather, you'd need in order to be successful with the request, right? And so if you want to stack that stat for you, then if you want to minmax your
Speaker A
influence, if you will, then you want to stack all four of these things. Okay, you're like, "Okay, I think I'm I'm following with this." So how does this relate to content? So first off, starting from the back, likeness, I
Speaker A
think so much more of it is just like just be you. There's zero ROI in trying to be or act in a way that is different than who you are. It's it's a relatively trit message, but like most people are
Speaker A
NPCs. Most people say pre-recorded scripts. They look at like the four different outfit, you know, combinations that exist for different kind of mental stereotypes. It's like, "Oh yeah, guy who loves barbecue and craft beers. Oh yeah, that's that that's that archetype.
Speaker A
I'm just going to be that archetype." Or you've got like hipster bro who likes hipster right? Or you've got uh you know like just bro, right? You've got just like stir bro. And people somewhat put me in that status, but I
Speaker A
also like for a few years was wearing like sandals that look like really weird. And I wore those and that was not broy at all, but like I wore them cuz they were super comfortable and I didn't have to like wear socks, which is a big
Speaker A
thing for me. Anyways, but point is like I think what makes you unique if is if you actually lean into the the nuances that make you you and actually have a way to defend why you do what you do.
Speaker A
Because most people don't even think about why they do what they do. And if you do things and you don't know why, it's not it's because you're following someone else's directions for your life rather than your own. weird like real.
Speaker A
And so so much of us have been programmed by people earlier in our lives. And I say programmed as though we're like machines, but what person do you think in your life has super high max status, power, credibility, and
Speaker A
likeness? Maxed out earlier on in your life. It's your parents, right? It's your parents. So think about all four of these elements. Status. Do your parents control scarce resources? Things you want? They've got money and they've got toys that they can buy you. They've got
Speaker A
food. They have act like they control your shelter. Like they have huge amounts of status in your life because they control all the scarcest resources, all the things you want. These are not binaries. So don't think like, oh, I
Speaker A
have status. I don't have status. It's to what degree do you have status, right? Like if somebody's got more money than you, they might have some status.
Speaker A
If you've got $1 and someone's got 10 grand, they got more status than you, right? But if someone's a billionaire, they have way more status than the guy who's 10,000, right? So again, think not in binaries, yes or no, but think in
Speaker A
continuums. So the next one is think about your parents power. How many reinforcement cycles do you assume that your parents had from the time you were born? And when I say reinforcement cycles, it means like they said do this.
Speaker A
You did that thing and then a good thing happened. Now, you might be like, I hate my dad or hate my mom or whatever your thing is. I don't really care. That doesn't matter for this purpose. The idea is that they probably said don't go
Speaker A
in the street or don't do that and you avoided a bad thing or do this and then a good thing happened, right? You tied your shoes the first time. You put the two bunny ears together. You tied your
Speaker A
shoes. Good thing happened. They you followed their directions. Think about how many times a parent has given you directions and you followed them and a bad thing was avoided or a good thing happened. Many. And so it makes sense
Speaker A
that not only do they have a lot of status, they have a lot of power. What else do they have? Credibility. Now, this is one where I think parents sometimes might lack compared to the other things. If you have a parent who
Speaker A
also has credibility in that specific, you know, realm of whatever it is that they're talking about, then you have even more influence on you. And then finally, for a parent, are they like you? Yeah, they literally look like you,
Speaker A
right? And often times they share similar values to you to a degree. Obviously, some people just go polar opposite from their parents. That's fine. But I'm talking in sweeping generalities for most people. This should at least explain or break down
Speaker A
like why do parents have so much power over us? How how do they have so much influence over our behaviors? You might not even want to listen to your parents.
Speaker A
You might even like your parents, but you can still feel that they you have to like resist their requests because you are so programmed based on these elements of behavior to comply with their requests. All right? And so then
Speaker A
the idea is how do we take these four elements and then how do we reverse engineer these into the content that we have so that we can build up true influence like and again we're defining influence as the likelihood of a
Speaker A
compliance with a request, right? And that likelihood will depend on the nature of the request and how much your SPCL is in relation to that thing.
Speaker A
Right? If I was giving out fashion tips, I probably don't have a lot of credibility for fashion tips, right? I don't know if I control any scarce resources around fashion. I have no I have no fashion hookups. Um I probably
Speaker A
haven't given anyone specific fashion tips. I have no third party anything for credibility for it. And you probably don't look like me. And so like I probably would have very low influence to some degree they can generalize as
Speaker A
you go up and up and up but um you have more influence in domain specificity. If we know these are the four things, status power credibility likeness then for each of these things in our videos, right, we want to demonstrate
Speaker A
that we control scarce resources. And so for me, like at the very beginning, if you think about what the intro was, right, so I said we did, you know, $32.7 million views and we did overund, you know, 5 something million in sales for
Speaker A
the book launch in 72 hours. And so that's me demonstrating status. I have these things, right? Then power. So, what I'm going to do in this video is I'm going to break down four things. So, you can follow and if you follow these
Speaker A
things, you're going to be more likely to get people going to comply with your future requests. And so, that means that they're not just going to watch your video, but they're going to be more likely to one, watch a next video. And
Speaker A
if you have any kind of call to action in the video, whatever level of call to action that is for you, whether it's subscribe or like or share or or, you know, buy something that's small or you know, set up or call or whatever it is
Speaker A
that you sell, then this is going to be second, right? like uh that you you'll have included that in your content. So then credibility is going to be the third party stuff. So the reason that I had at my launch for example, I had
Speaker A
Guinness, I had to pay those judges uh to be on site was because I wanted to validate that the the books that we did and the revenue that we generated was legit, right? So I had a a third party
Speaker A
that most people um respect as like a legitimate corporation that their entire business is based on trust that they validate and verify proof that these records were broken. And so that gives credibility. The likeness piece, like I said earlier, is just you being you,
Speaker A
right? And so that's why I'm actually super pumped to do these live streams because this is like I honestly hate making YouTube videos. What I mean that is like staring at a camera and having like, you know, prompts to, you know,
Speaker A
solicit me to say stuff. Like I will do it because I have a relatively high pain tolerance and I'll do what is required to get what I want. But like I'm I'm going all in on this. So if you guys are
Speaker A
like, "What's Alex's kind of like media strategy for the future?" I'm I'm I'm focusing on two words. You can write this down. live interactive. Those are the two things that's that is describing the uh ACQ, you know, 3.0 or Mosy Media
Speaker A
3.0 vision for what's going forward. Like that is what I'm focusing on. And I'll tell you a story of why why I think this is so interesting. So, I had a conversation with a mega influencer. I don't think you would mind um with Mr.
Speaker A
Beast a few weeks ago and we were talking about kind of like the future of media and content. One of the things that he was just talking about was um this soccer game that came up uh that they do like UK versus US. What ends up
Speaker A
happening is that they have all these different celebrities or influencers from different platforms, right? And so starting from the lowest the lowest people on this little totem pole, they would walk out in the stadium and this became the kind of the def de facto like
Speaker A
measuring stick for who had who had the most cool points, right? These are the A-listers. And so this is your typical kind of celebs from like movies and like 90s and the 2000s or whatever, right?
Speaker A
people like they recognize cuz they're celebs, but like they don't have like huge I guess they have some media presence, but it's more like traditional media. The level of applause for these guys was almost nothing. Barely anyone cared. So then the next level that came
Speaker A
up was the shorts, the shorts creators. So this is your like only Tik Tockers or people who only make reals, but like only short videos. And so they had a little bit more applause on the applause meter compared to the A-listers. Then
Speaker A
the long form guys came out and this is when the audience got way rowdier. All right, so this is your podcasters, your YouTubers, the people who make long form pieces of content. And I'm going to pause here for a second to kind of like
Speaker A
highlight why I think this is. I don't think there's anything wrong with shorts. We make tons of shorts. But I see the purpose of shorts as many times a way to get someone to watch a long, right? They watch a couple a couple
Speaker A
shorts and then think, "Okay, this guy seems legit or this gal seems legit. I'm going to risk my time." Because that's the risk. They're making an investment, right? you're making an investment today. I will risk I'm going to get a
Speaker A
good return on this, right? And so shorts then lead to longs. But let me show you the difference from an influence perspective. How many reinforcing cycles do you think you can have in 30 seconds compared to 2 hours?
Speaker A
It's like not even close. And so if someone watched two 1-hour pieces of content for me, period, okay, two 1 hour pieces, 120 minutes for me to get that same level of exposure and kind of cycles of reinforcement with a prospect
Speaker A
and they were only consuming shorts, right? Let's say my average short, let's say it's 15 seconds. So that means that's four shorts per minute. So if I have 120 minutes for longs, I have to do someone would have to watch 480
Speaker A
shorts to have the same level of exposure as watching 2 hours with me. And think about how how important this is. What were the things that people said like this was the quote podcast election. Trump went on and I don't care
Speaker A
about the politics behind it, but I do care about influence and persuasion. And so, like, why is it that the two podcasts that I think really nudged this election, my opinion is the Trump three-hour plus podcast that he did with
Speaker A
Rogan like a week or whatever it was, I think that was a huge influential event.
Speaker A
I think Elon getting on uh Tucker Tucker Carlson and doing that interview. I think those two interviews were some of the interviews that really nudged the election. And again, I don't care who you voted for. It doesn't matter to me.
Speaker A
I think about this from marketing persuasion, okay? And so because of that, audiences who were not sure got to spend three hours with a presidential candidate and as a result, it just nudged some of them in the direction to
Speaker A
ultimately vote. Okay, now back to our little story. A-listers have almost no applause. Shorts have slight applause.
Speaker A
Longs have legit applause. Then the live streamers, when the live streamers came out, it was like the entire auditorium or stadium or arena erupted.
Speaker A
And when I heard that, it was such a visual example of I mean, we have this saying which is like butts and seats. If you just make a bunch of like meme content, right, you demonstrate almost none of these things. Some of you guys
Speaker A
are chasing views when what I think you want is you want to have prospects who are more likely to comply with a future request. And so we need to change our behavior to maximize the likely that occurs. And so in in looking at this
Speaker A
thing, this is why I'm I'm telling you like showing my cards, I'm going to be doing more live streams. And I think is also and this is me like outside of SPCL, but I think like meta themes overall. I think that the internet will
Speaker A
always move towards truth. And so I think the A-listers, everything's super curated, everything's super polished, it's photoshopped, it's scripted, and as you move closer this way, it's rawer.
Speaker A
Like you have a three-hour podcast, like they're not scripted, right? Or most of them aren't, right? Um streaming, it's like, yeah, we're live, right? I can't do anything. Like we're live. This idea of of how can we approximate the rawest
Speaker A
reality of you us hanging out, right? and actually going through this stuff. I think that is what will unlock the most influence as long as you are still including these SPCL elements into it.
Speaker A
And I think that's the marriage. Do SPCL and do it as many times as I possibly can. That's the idea. And so live streaming provides that that opportunity. Let's also think about this from a context of volume. Whether you
Speaker A
like him or not, Rogan, tremendous influence, right? To the same degree. PBD, tremendous influence. Uh Dave Ramsey, tremendous influence. What is it that these guys have in common? They're putting out hours of content every single day. So, I said earlier that we
Speaker A
had 35,000 pieces of content, right? I hear plenty of times there's tons of, you know, $1 million businesses, $2 million businesses, things like that.
Speaker A
They put out one piece of content a day, right? And there's nothing wrong with that. That's 365 pieces of content a year. And if you think about the size of acquisition.com in terms of our revenue, right? compared to somebody who's doing
Speaker A
one or $2 million a year and they're doing 365 pieces of content, we're just quite literally doing a hundred times more. And as a result of that 100 times the volume, what do you think's happening? We get a 100 times the
Speaker A
prospect. And so people want to try and like outsmart themselves and thinking that they can like not do the work that's required, but it's actually far more linear than you would expect. So like we just know that like one out of
Speaker A
10, you know, shorts is going to go, you know, is going to be a two or three outlier. We just know what that math looks like. Same thing for longs. How do I just jam as much into that input
Speaker A
output machine as I possibly can? And as long as I'm checking these boxes like I'm making the right kind of content, then you're going to get the right kind of prospects. So, I'll give you one more nugget like I said, which is that some
Speaker A
of you guys may have heard this and it's a concept of social media is now turning into interest media.
Speaker A
Okay, so what does this mean? Let's unpack this for a second. If you make content and you judge it by views, I think that's dumb. And I'll explain why.
Speaker A
If I have a a grandma in public come and just do a running slap and just slaps me across the face, that video will probably get views. But does it get the grandma views? No. Does it get me any
Speaker A
any more people who now believe more in my stuff? No. But what it will do is it will show it to people who are interested in humor, which is a lot of people, right? But those might not be
Speaker A
your customers, and they probably aren't. So assuming you're not an entertainer and you are somebody who's a business person. If you sell services to anyone, you're likely going to be an educator, not an entertainer. Meaning you're you're you're trying to provide
Speaker A
value to people to change their behavior in some way. And ideally changing behavior that gets them to walk closer to you and buy stuff. Okay. So what do I mean by social versus interest? If you want to attract the right avatar, make
Speaker A
content for that avatar. That sounds so obvious and simple. And the thing is that no one does it because here's the right or downer. The content is the targeting. The algorithm is so good now.
Speaker A
It knows what you're talking about. It it knows it can it can literally judge your your background. It judges what you're wearing. It judges who you are and will display it to the people that they know have a history of watching
Speaker A
content that is similar to that that people find valuable. And so if you're making stuff about how to fix pianos because you're a piano repair guy, then you will find people who are trying to fix their pianos. But if you're making
Speaker A
that type of content, you might be like, "Man, I'm only getting, you know, a,000 views a video." It's like, yeah, but the market of people who are buying pianos might be significantly smaller than the market of people who just want to be
Speaker A
entertained or distracted. So, it's not fair to to compare your views against Mr. Beasts. It doesn't make any sense.
Speaker A
If I were to think to myself like, I have a room of a thousand people that are going to watch this and all of them are only interested in fixing pianos.
Speaker A
That's a hell of an opportunity. I care so much more about IRL responses. So, what do I mean by that? If I make a video and then I get texts from business owners that I like and that I respect
Speaker A
being like, "Yo, that was fire." Then I'm like, "Okay, I'm on the right track." And so some of you guys, let me know in the comments you guys have seen um a format that we've talked about. We call cash cows, but basically it's me,
Speaker A
there's a business owner that presents a little bit about their business and they come to this side and we talk about how to like how to improve their business, right? So let me know in the comments if you like that style. And if you do, let
Speaker A
me know if you're a business owner or not. Okay? So, uh like I like that style and I'm not a business owner. I like that style and I am a business owner. Or I don't like that style and I'm a
Speaker A
business owner or I don't like that style and I'm not a business owner. If you are a business owner, when I have people who are here in person, IRL, in real life in Vegas, right? Business owners who fly out. I ask, I say, "What
Speaker A
is your favorite type of content?" Dollars to donuts. That's their favorite type of content. And so, I make more of that. Even though, and it would make sense like it would make sense that there's fewer of those people, right?
Speaker A
Just think about math. If you've got uh if you got the whole population here, let me I'll show you a little graph on this. So let's say that 100% of people like this represents 100%. Uh let's just use USA because I already know all the
Speaker A
numbers for USA. Okay. So let's say this is 100%. All right. You get 100% of people are interested. Okay. Well, right now only 9% of people even own a business. Like 9%. So right off the bat I'm going to have a huge percentage of
Speaker A
people that aren't my ideal audience. Now, of course, I do have people who are business interested and that's why I'm a co-founder of school and we give people, you know, a way to go uh start a business online in in in a lowcost way,
Speaker A
right? Which you can do. It's n bucks a month after a 14-day trial. You guys can check it out. And there's a bunch of like training and community and all that good stuff. All right? But you can go
Speaker A
school.com, I think, for/orosi. I think it's below this video. Doesn't matter. Point big. 9% is what I'm competing for.
Speaker A
Okay? Now, that means there's about 32 to 33 million uh business owners in the US. Okay? 32 million. That's that's 100% of all business owners. Now, within that, 95% of that 9% is below $1 million in revenue. 95%.
Speaker A
Then I've got 5% of that 9% that are over a million. Now, if you want to get if you want to get weird with it, what percent do you think is over 10 million? 4%.
Speaker A
1 in 250. And then a hundred million, nine figures, is I think one in roughly 3,000 depending on like your data source. One in 3,000 businesses gets to 100 million a year.
Speaker A
This big. And so it would make sense then that we've given these numbers, right? 9% is is 32 million. So out of 5% of that is only be a million and a half people. There's only a million and a
Speaker A
half people who are business owners doing over a million based on the math that they that that this is Census Bureau data. Maybe theirs isn't correct, but that's the math, right? And so if we're looking at that's the market, then
Speaker A
it would make sense that I'm not going to get all 100% of them to watch my video, right? If I got one and a half million views and 100% of them were business owners, that would be insane, right? And so it would make sense that
Speaker A
like if I get 100,000 views on a video that has that's really made for that level of business owner, then I'm crushing it, right? And it doesn't make sense to look at, you know, Mr. Beast video with 100 million views and be
Speaker A
like, "Oh man, I suck." It's like, dude, we're going after we have different we have different games, right? And so I'd encourage you to create accurate expectations of the size of the market that you're going after and also think
Speaker A
about the translation of these numbers into IRL. I have two businesses that I looked at in the last year that were doing over a million dollars a year with less than 5,000 followers. You absolutely can make plenty of money with
Speaker A
a very small following as long as you make content that's directly valuable for that following. All right, with that being said, uh we just went over SPCL status power credibility and likeness. what you want to include in your videos, why I'm going all in on
Speaker A
live stream, and why the whole point is you want to get as much time with your uh prospects as humanly possible. You want to make the topics of your content based on the things that those people find interesting, not uh based on like
Speaker A
being social, but being interesting. And if you get if you make it interesting for them, they will keep watching it.
Speaker A
And then being realistic about your expectations on how many views you can get based on your size of
