humans will not be able to compete with AI
0:02
humans. At all. Nope, they're gonna be cheap. I'd
0:04
rather pay an influencer that looks just like you
0:06
that has just as many followers as you. I
0:08
mean, there's real pressure coming. It's called
0:11
virtual influencers. Meaning
0:13
not real people as influencers. That's right. And
0:15
the brands have all sorts of feelings towards
0:17
influencers. They pay a lot of money, then
0:19
they don't post it the way they want
0:21
or do the thing they want or do
0:23
another brand deal with their competitor the day
0:25
after the six month exclusive. So you know
0:27
what they're gonna do about it? They're gonna
0:29
create their own influencers. And the people that
0:31
own the AI influencers are not gonna cry
0:33
for the influencers. I think that industry is
0:35
gonna get massively affected in the next 10
0:37
years. Attention is the number one asset.
0:41
Okay, so your book, Day Trading Attention.
0:43
The greatest book ever written. You've got
0:45
the greatest book ever written. Hi. How
0:48
are you? It's
0:52
also the greatest book ever written
0:54
as a manual for what the
0:56
future of marketing, media, social is
0:58
gonna need and look like. Or
1:00
even more to the point of the title, the
1:03
today. You know, I think one of the things that
1:05
many of the people at VaynerX in
1:07
my organization know and many
1:10
of the clients that I've interacted with in the room is there's
1:13
this obsession with everyone thinking that
1:15
these things are coming tomorrow. Like
1:19
more stuff sold
1:21
today because of
1:23
social media organic and advertising
1:27
than any other media drove sales
1:29
today. So, you know, I
1:31
think, obviously, I understand you're setting it up, but
1:33
I took the opportunity to like really pound this
1:35
home to everyone. You know, Day Trading
1:38
Attention means that I believe
1:40
marketing has shifted to something that is
1:43
minute by minute, second by second,
1:46
not let's sit around a boardroom for
1:48
three months and come up with an idea that
1:50
will come out in nine months. That
1:52
world is super over. You know,
1:54
I know
1:56
there's a new Seinfeld movie
1:59
on Netflix It has Don Draper coming
2:01
back, but he's super dead. And
2:04
I think the industry is
2:07
really struggling with Fortune
2:09
500. All the
2:11
companies listed on NASDAQ are
2:14
really struggling with marketing
2:16
in my opinion, and I think they have bad
2:18
reporting. I think that they are
2:22
confused, and I believe
2:24
that until the world realizes
2:26
that organic social media right
2:28
now is the single
2:30
most important thing to understand in
2:32
marketing, and then you build from there, until
2:35
that happens, we will see what we've been
2:37
seeing, which is on the flip
2:39
side, for every
2:41
American Airlines or BMW, there
2:45
are real significant businesses
2:47
being built every day purely
2:50
on social. And I'm
2:54
not talking about the long tail of thousands
2:57
of companies doing $5 million a year
2:59
selling a health and wellness product
3:02
or T-shirts or something on
3:04
the side. I'm talking about the poppies,
3:07
the Prime Energy drinks,
3:09
the Mr. Beast Beastables. You're
3:12
gonna start seeing multi-billion dollar
3:16
revenue companies that are built
3:18
purely from social. And
3:20
that should make sense to everyone because
3:24
a stunning percentage of the most famous people in
3:27
the world right now came from
3:29
and lived within social. They're
3:31
not actors and actresses in
3:33
film and television. And
3:36
so, I think I'm
3:38
excited that I put out this book now because
3:41
I went very nerdy with it. I went
3:43
into very heavy detail of like, okay, that's what
3:45
I have to say. Especially if
3:47
you pay attention to everything I've said, it's nothing I haven't
3:49
been saying for a decade. What I'm proud
3:51
about with this book is how
3:54
I'm showing people how to really think about it. This
3:56
is much more classroom,
3:58
textbook.
