@mbertulli @codyplof @Seanfrank @mikebeckhamsm @FitCoachCurtis This is cool but lack of vision makes me sad. The ecom avengers assembled and are doing… a supplement brand? I wish they would’ve done something more ambitious. I get the education play but a tech product w serious R&D budget that solves a real problem would’ve been so cool.

@mbertulli @codyplof @Seanfrank @mikebeckhamsm @FitCoachCurtis Building in public gets especially interesting when the messy parts stay visible too. The real value isn’t just watching a brand launch but seeing the decisions, tradeoffs, and mistakes that usually get edited out of the story.

@mbertulli @codyplof @Seanfrank @mikebeckhamsm @FitCoachCurtis Every question on that list gets answered inside the room. The one that decides the outcome gets answered outside it — what the category already looks like the day they launch. Betting that one shows up around E004, not E001.

How to build a brand from scratch using Paper, Codex + GPT image model 2 Since two weeks back, I´ve done most of my design work in paper And I´m genuinely impressed by what you can do with their MCP Combined with claude & codex you can pretty much build out a brand in an hour or two 1. Brainstorm a name for you product or service 2. find a good design system you can iterate on or come up with one from scratch 3. create a moodboard of things you like and want the brand to be about (images, colors, shapes, elements, you name it) inside paper 4. select the moodboard and prompt codex to create a brand brief (hooked up to paper mcp) to create the inital brand book in code 5. Use the new brand book you created and copy as PNG, take that image into ChatGPT and use GPT model 2 (with the brand prompt) to create the brand book 6. You will get a finished and well-done 10 paged brand book Now you can use that to create anything in line with the brand: Landing pags, lead magnets, ads, anything you can think of Comment "bookmarkable" + RT and I´ll send you the brand prompt and step by step guide in DMs.

From the archive: Micky 🐸 reflecting on what two decades in global fintech taught him. “I was never the best student at school, but I was a student of life. Walking the streets and seeing how people behave with money was the best master class I could have gotten.” “At the end, everything you do is building a brand, and brand means trust. It’s underrated how long it takes to build trust and how quickly it can fracture.” “Every financial product is a commodity that can be copied; the only real moat is a trusted brand.”

The best time to start a consumer brand, per Sean Frank: 1. January 2012 at the dawn of Facebook ads 2. Now Why now? “It’s moated from AI. I would hate to be trying to sell software right now.” “People are going to buy stuff forever. You have birthdays. You have Christmas.” Ridge just had its best Q2 ever, even with inflation and the Iran war. Frank says this contrasts with the Ukraine war in 2022, when there was a noticeable dip in e-commerce. “If I had my Shopify notifications on, it would just be chiming all day right now.” “It’s definitely a vibecession.”
