that's and frankly relatively easy to to that's and frankly relatively easy to to execute on. Okay, let's zero in on
execute on. Okay, let's zero in on execute on. Okay, let's zero in on content because I've got a few notes
content because I've got a few notes content because I've got a few notes here. So, it's what I think the new
here. So, it's what I think the new here. So, it's what I think the new Google and social media today in terms
Google and social media today in terms Google and social media today in terms of the world of search is. I think if
of the world of search is. I think if of the world of search is. I think if you're just publishing content that's you're just publishing content that's you're just publishing content that's already been talked about previously, it
already been talked about previously, it already been talked about previously, it it's stale because anyone can produce
it's stale because anyone can produce it's stale because anyone can produce it. AI is producing all the time and you
it. AI is producing all the time and you it. AI is producing all the time and you don't really want something where AI is
don't really want something where AI is don't really want something where AI is just basically recycling your knowledge
just basically recycling your knowledge just basically recycling your knowledge and basically giving it as an AI
and basically giving it as an AI and basically giving it as an AI overview where the user doesn't click.
overview where the user doesn't click. overview where the user doesn't click. You're like building a brand. So I think
You're like building a brand. So I think You're like building a brand. So I think content needs to do a couple different
content needs to do a couple different content needs to do a couple different things. One is when you start going on
things. One is when you start going on things. One is when you start going on the media side when you do these
the media side when you do these the media side when you do these interviews and podcast you start
interviews and podcast you start interviews and podcast you start capturing knowledge that's not really
capturing knowledge that's not really capturing knowledge that's not really out there. So when you start to convert
out there. So when you start to convert out there. So when you start to convert that the video recorded stuff into trans
that the video recorded stuff into trans that the video recorded stuff into trans transcriptions, you basically are
transcriptions, you basically are transcriptions, you basically are producing content that's not been
producing content that's not been producing content that's not been produced anywhere that shows up in the
produced anywhere that shows up in the produced anywhere that shows up in the AI overviews and that's what other
AI overviews and that's what other AI overviews and that's what other websites will start to reference. The
websites will start to reference. The websites will start to reference. The second part which is what I mentioned second part which is what I mentioned second part which is what I mentioned before about the survey Google's like
before about the survey Google's like before about the survey Google's like super hungry for unique data and
super hungry for unique data and super hungry for unique data and insights and the second you have it is
insights and the second you have it is insights and the second you have it is you're now relevant. You're now relevant
you're now relevant. You're now relevant you're now relevant. You're now relevant for Google. You're no longer just
for Google. You're no longer just for Google. You're no longer just another content site. I think your
another content site. I think your another content site. I think your content needs to kind of level up in I'm
content needs to kind of level up in I'm content needs to kind of level up in I'm going to say maybe three angles. One is
going to say maybe three angles. One is going to say maybe three angles. One is when you do the interviews, you're when you do the interviews, you're when you do the interviews, you're generating that content. The second I
generating that content. The second I generating that content. The second I think is if you think about trying to
think is if you think about trying to think is if you think about trying to build like a product where the survey
build like a product where the survey build like a product where the survey where you're getting unique data, okay,
where you're getting unique data, okay, where you're getting unique data, okay, that's great. If you can if you build
that's great. If you can if you build that's great. If you can if you build another app or something, I'm not saying
another app or something, I'm not saying another app or something, I'm not saying let's distract you on the side with
let's distract you on the side with let's distract you on the side with another project, but if you build
another project, but if you build another project, but if you build something where it's I think you did a something where it's I think you did a something where it's I think you did a note poker note app, imagine if you just
note poker note app, imagine if you just note poker note app, imagine if you just published the data behind it. Was it
published the data behind it. Was it published the data behind it. Was it successful or was it okay? as you start
successful or was it okay? as you start successful or was it okay? as you start doing these experiments, you come up
doing these experiments, you come up doing these experiments, you come up with data. The entire industry in Google
with data. The entire industry in Google with data. The entire industry in Google is hungry for unique data sets. If you
is hungry for unique data sets. If you is hungry for unique data sets. If you can find ways of getting data, you will
can find ways of getting data, you will can find ways of getting data, you will get there. And then the third is when I
get there. And then the third is when I get there. And then the third is when I look at sites that have success that are
look at sites that have success that are look at sites that have success that are actually they're pushing through.
actually they're pushing through. actually they're pushing through. They're not flatlining. They're still They're not flatlining. They're still They're not flatlining. They're still going up while other sites are going going up while other sites are going going up while other sites are going down. I'm going to use an example of an
down. I'm going to use an example of an down. I'm going to use an example of an affiliate that was just acquired affiliate that was just acquired affiliate that was just acquired recently by Northstar Network. I think

amazing content. I'm surprised that amazing content. I'm surprised that people don't copy them all day long
people don't copy them all day long people don't copy them all day long because I think they're just trying to because I think they're just trying to because I think they're just trying to push the envelope of like new ideas. So,
push the envelope of like new ideas. So, push the envelope of like new ideas. So, one example I I saw of an article they
one example I I saw of an article they one example I I saw of an article they did was they covered the last 20 to 25

top three insights that I could record top three insights that I could record that's going to be a minute long." And that's going to be a minute long." And that's going to be a minute long." And then it just gives me the answer. And then it just gives me the answer. And then it just gives me the answer. And then I go find it and do the script.
then I go find it and do the script. then I go find it and do the script. Highlight it, right click, new
Highlight it, right click, new Highlight it, right click, new composition, download. I take that on
