I scaled my virtual business to $100K/month back in 2012.
Virtual ops.
Outbound.
Closing support.
Built with LinkedIn, networking, Zoom, Slack, Close, Upwork, FlexJobs — before all that was normal.
Today’s Lazy Brothers still chase investors, headlines, and empty influence — craving popularity, fame, and recognition despite never finishing what they started.
@LeilaHormozi This is the crux of the problem.
Legacy social media crushes dreams.
It's a big distraction.
The allure of popularity traps millions.
Get out of the echo chambers.
Be an original.
Create great products.
Go your own way.
Don't copy celebrities.
@AlexHormozi When ignorance reaches a tipping point, and false beliefs go viral, something surprising happens...
It creates space for original thinkers to do something entirely different.
Find your people.
Ignore celebrities.
Play your own game.
Share your truth.
Create real products.
@thedankoe Creator economy thinking took over my life.
Then I got wise.
You don’t need to fight this culture.
You don’t need to fix it.
There’s another path.
Stop marketing.
Create real products.
Use social media.
Don't be used by them.
@ItsKieranDrew Creating marketing content feels old.
It's mainstreamed so it's like legacy IT.
You don’t need to fight this culture.
You don’t need to mock it.
You don’t need to fix it.
There’s another path.
Be original. Create a product. Stop marketing.
@Codie_Sanchez The most addictive drug today is online celebrity marketing.
You don’t need to fight this culture.
You don’t need to mock it.
You don’t need to fix it.
There’s another path.
Create a quality product.
Stop marketing.
@jonbrosio The market is exhausted:
– Products are low quality
– IT systems are breaking
– AI isn’t scary — trust is
– Online cults reward celebrity over substance
Share experience. Stop marketing. Create real product.

Online cults reward celebrity over substance. Create a great product that works.
Don't chase Popular.

Let the Venture Capital crowd copy each other.
They chase Unicorns and call it innovation.
