This is how I’d rank content channels for info operators in 2026 after running 50+ accounts and generating 250M+ impressions.
Quick caveat before the chart. This ranking is for secondary silo accounts, not your main personal account. Different rules apply when you're building a personal brand on the main.
A few things worth knowing:
YouTube longform is S-tier because the content pays dividends for years. The caveat is it's a long-term play, so if you're starting from scratch, you might see faster early wins on short-form. You should definitely do longform at the start too, just be prepared for it to take a bit longer to compound.
Among the short-form channels, the ranking goes IG Reels > Tiktok > YouTube Shorts in raw audience quality.
WhatsApp & Telegram groups sit in A-tier because the users are on those platforms daily, you get direct communication to them for all your messages/announcements, and it’s also a nice way to segment leads who are interested in specific offers. Pitching leads in a closed doors environment helps with conversion rates.
LinkedIn is B-tier for info operators specifically. It's a great channel, just not the strongest one in your acquisition stack at $250-500K.
if you focused the same amount of time on God than you do making money you would realize you can be happy with nothing
if you need money to feel free then you are a slave to someone else's mini games
I am faster than you because I operate on principles.
While you waste time with useless details, I am already moving forward.
I fail and try again. This is my data.
Principle: TRY AS FAST AS POSSIBLE
While you read about antioxidants and amino acids, I eat meat and vegetables.
While you study glycemic index and insulin resistance, I eat once a day.
While you read about eccentric and concentric exercises and count your little reps, I train every single day to failure.
While you stare at Bitcoin charts like a slave, I buy the dip.
Etc.
When you operate on principles, you can smoke cigars, drink from plastic bottles, and eat McDonald’s without a single fuck given.
You also save endless TIME.
You don’t need to understand the engineering of a car to drive it fast.
Life is exactly the same.
Stop being a slave to information.
Operate on basic principles with ruthless tenacity.
This is how you win.
You’re gonna need about triple the confidence. Take whatever you want out of life and it’ll take about 3X the level of self-confidence to get it. This is a universal rule of life.
You can predict someone future wealth levels by their optimism. It’s rare to meet an overly pessimistic rich guy. Lots of poor ones though. You need some delusion to win in life.
@TateTheTalisman 1. I show up on time and will do whatever is required.
2. I am a fast learner and have improved my life a lot form what you and Andrew teach.
Work towards the future you want but never deny yourself the joy of the present moment.
I hear so many people say “when I make 1million I’ll be happy.” So you’re supposed to be miserable and have a bad life until then? Why?? It doesn’t make any sense at all.
Enjoy right now. It’s all you have.
Don't be afraid to spend money.
Money is something you can get back after spending it.
But time is a one-way street so make sure you're spending it wisely.
Easiest way to write long form
- Have a rough idea in your head
- Bulletpoint list of points you want to make
- Rearrange them in an order that makes sense
- List of transitions (here's why, the reason is simple, but that's not all, there's more, let me explain)
- Expand on each bulletpoint
- Feed it to a pre-trained claude model for whatever purpose you have (VSLs, article, personal brand newsletter)
- Wait a day
- Read it with a fresh mind and manually edit till its final draft form
"I'll sleep when I'm dead."
No. You'll be dead sooner because you didn't sleep.
6-8 hours minimum. Non-negotiable.
If you're pulling all-nighters, you're not working harder. You're managing your day worse.
Winners recharge. Losers grind themselves into the ground and call it discipline.
