Oh no the paparazzi!
are you one of them?
You know when your family wants to take pictures of you?
They usually don’t let one person do the job… instead, they all show up with their cameras leaving you overwhelmed not knowing who to look at.
Sounds familiar?
Funny how we all go through the same hell as children lmao…

Anyway!
You might know a pretty similar situation online.
All the different people who tell you to do this and that, to avoid this at all costs and sure as hell do THIS every single day.
It gets confusing when everybody just says something different or repeats the same bs over and over again.
Those people are the cameras at a family party.
You don’t know who to look at so you just go with whoever makes themselves the most obvious.
Who is that person?
visible
loud
funny
Do you see where I’m going here?
It’s the same with your favorite creators.
They are more visible, louder and maybe even funnier than the other ones.
What that means for you as a creator?
You should become more visible, louder and funnier.
Simple, right?
Here’s how I’d take that into action:
Visibility
Optimize your profile
Network like a psychopath
Position yourself with a clear message
Sound
Polarize
Write as you talk
Have your own slang
Post more to stick in their heads
Humor
be human
create your own memes
don’t take it too seriously
Especially for the sound it’s crucial to have your own writing style.
I already covered this in one of my previous emails and I’m 100% sure that
this will make you stand out from the crowd.

Alright that’s it for today.
Lots of love
