@morallawwithin How about 8" and thick?

@janthonylong My take is, it was once helpful when categories weren't saturated and products actually competed on features and innovation. It made sense to say "our cars are the safest - look, we have this new thing that keeps you from launching through the window". That time passed.

I repeat…

Brand=Expertise as reputation.
Branding=How you make brand known.
Marketing=leveraging limitations—value—identifying opportunities.

Whether you’re trying to define a personal or a professional service brand, the brand forms after the experience ends.

"Restraint."

Client: We have several points we want to make in the ad. How many can we fit?

Restraint: The "one" point that most represents the concept.

Client: But we can list so many...

Restraint: Or you can make one strong point that resonates.

Google's NotebookLM is the current best "wow this is amazing & useful" demo of AI

Here I gave it the entire text of my book, it turned it into a podcast, a study guide, FAQ, timeline & quite accurate chat

Listen to the first few minutes of the "podcast." Seriously, just listen.

My advice to Gen Z
Exceed in secondary school
Get a degree from public university in a field with promising job path (unless in medicine or engineering, the a prestige university or poly-technical institute)
Make yourself indispensable in your career
Live frugally
Save money every paychecks
Buy a duplex when you can afford to
Regularly buy SPY and Bitcoin in 8 to 2 ratio -- then HOLD for 20-30 years
DO NOT BECOME AN ACTIVE TRADER
Hope for massive bear market in stocks so that you can avg down
Retire at age 55 in upper 1% of wealthy households
