You gotta let it go

@DreamAmerica_ My dad explained this to me once. I asked him why the guy with the most votes doesn’t win. He said- “That’s not the rules of this game, if they changed the rules, the way people would play would change.” If we changed it, then the parties would adapt. It stays 50/50

PETE BUTTIGIEG: "What if we selected our President by letting the person who got the most votes take the office, instead of the Electoral College?"

@RoKhanna Do you trade ai stocks with your insider info? Just curious

The AI revolution must work for all of us, not just tech lords. Medicare for All given job displacement. A federal jobs program to hire 1 million Americans. I call it Work for America. An AI for the People agenda.

@ryancohen And just got your offer to buy ridge wallet for 1 billion. I accept.

Proposal to acquire eBay. investor.gamestop.com/ebay

@mjesuele @rasmr_eth I lived on that corner next to the jons. we must have walked passed each other.

@Seanfrank @rasmr_eth Hell yeah! Then you know exactly what I'm talking about. HMS Bounty, Pollo a la Brasa, the taco truck outside Jons on 8th St, etc. Good times.

People talk shit about LA like bro it’s not bad you were just poor

@sergiopAnsel I am all for a conversation around the rise of authoritarianism in america. I think that is real and 100% happening. what I want to avoid is the "everyone I dont like is a nazi" the irony of endless coverage of "ELON IS A NAZI!!" just to endorse a guy who likes the ss

@Seanfrank Yep. But fascism or communism follows hyperinflation.

“Got cross tattoos? You are a nazi. Republican? Nazi. Vote for Trump? Yeah I know he won the popular vote, but yup you are a Nazi. Fuck it, even Jews- sure nazis. But the guy with the SS tattoo? Oh he is a democrat? Tattoo could mean anything really…” None of these people are nazis. It’s just the most powerful word to hurl at your enemy. It’s the modern day heretic. Short hand for “bad person who deserves bad thing to happen to them” World would be better if we could discuss issues and people without every discussion becoming “if you disagree with me about taxes you are for the enslavement of the European continent”

@OrevaZSN they dont turn the water into radiative sludge. they make the water a little warm. thats it. and every data center on earth uses 1/10th the water of the sport of golf.

I still can't wrap my head around why AI data centers need fresh water. Not recycled, not wastewater. Fresh, drinkable water, burned through by the millions of gallons just to keep servers cool. Why are we using a basic human necessity to prop up machines?

@_niallquinn the best brands arent being cheap with the payouts. its about finding the 10 GREAT creators and making them millionaires you burn a few 100k on duds to get there

@Seanfrank Do creators get paid for the reposts on Insta etc or only original content via TikTok shop?

I have personally seen 6 brands restart growth using the "hudson method" we are talking 5m a year brands to 100m a year brands. the steps: 1- seed hundreds of creators on tik tok small, new accounts, no one famous 2- pay them per video PLUS commission BUT heavily incentives them to post LOTS of videos bonuses for posting 100+ videos a month 3- take all the creative, load it into every ad channel you just solved creative bottlenecks and unlocked infinite ad angles 4- scale ad spend on EVERYTHING, while still paying the creators commission on the ad sales -- it isnt about tik tok shop sales. it isnt about gmv max. its all of it. you get free cpms on tik tok. you get unlimited content. and it jump starts the whole business more ads, more angles, more channels. this is named after the legendary founder of comfrt, hudson. all hail the ugc king.

@antinertia well us uncs are getting in now

@Seanfrank Mobile has been doing this since Instagram exist we call this a UGC farm we are also doing the same in the prosumer/B2B PLG industry Lovable, Gamma, WisprFlow… we’re all doing it

@ShampKing $20-$100. not more than $100 though

@Seanfrank What per video fee you think is reasonable target?

@coltonjetlee yes, and you can use mta level on the ad, last click, coupon code, you pick

@Seanfrank When you say 'commission on the ad sales' for step 4… does that mean creators get paid % on sales from Meta ads (or other paid channels besides TikTok)? If so, how do you track commission for Meta?

the man is in the comments, give him a follow @itshudsonblake

@andrewjfaris shhhhhh

@Seanfrank Is Ridge doing it?

@TVGrimReaper He has publically talked about it. He didn’t sell for the money. He sold because he thought the franchise would need to evolve to be competitive. Casinos, hotels, etc. He didn’t think they would trade off the future of the franchise for nothing.

Cuban’s fumble in selling the Mavs isn’t talked about enough.

@gioblaze0069 typically revenue cost per video is low, $25-$100 but just MASS amounts

@Seanfrank Do we know how much each creator gets per video and is the commission a % of spend or revenue on their videos

@ron_ecomm Sorry these are different brands. I have seen 5m a year brands use this strategy And I have seen 100m brands use this strategy

@Seanfrank Can you give more context of the 5M brand to 100M please if you can share any? How long were they stuck in 5M for beforehand and how long did it take to get to 100M? Did they already run Meta and just hit ceiling? What category were they?

@GeneralFoxxxy Do you believe in skilled labor though? Does someone have skills you don’t have that they should be paid more for? So you can see there is a spectrum of skilled to unskilled, with brain surgeons on one end and some other job on the other

@sabsdavid I think it would work better with one hero product

@Seanfrank do you need many products to do this? or you focus on one/two products?

@sergiopAnsel hyperinflation

@Seanfrank Honest question- Why are people throwing around that term? (Some serious and some not). Maybe better put- what is it about this time period that is reminding people of that term?

@BillDA Gotta add some reta or you are screwed

@Seanfrank Wait I thought fiber was the new protein Time to pivot my upcoming high fiber gummies brand

Peptides are the new protein
