Over the last four years, I’ve posted over 3,000 videos on social media. Even though I was resistant, I got started because I knew I couldn't build the brand and business I wanted without putting myself out there. Writing posts and designing carousels was good. But seeing someone’s face, hearing their voice, and feeling their energy—that’s what truly connects people. Here are my four biggest lessons: Lesson 1: Quantity Leads To QualityI used to overthink every video, but the truth is—the more you create, the better you get. Your first 50 videos will probably suck. That’s fine. Everybody's do. (unless you work with me) You don't get good until you stop caring what everybody else thinks and just hit record. Lesson 2: The Hook Is EverythingThis changed everything for me—for three reasons:
Lesson 3: The Best Ideas Come From Your ExperiencesFinally, I realized the best content isn’t scripted—it’s sparked from the things you do every day. And it came with some unexpected benefits:
Lesson 4: Consistency Beats ViralityViral videos are great, but what really moves the needle is showing up every single week. The founders who win aren’t the ones chasing trends. They’re the ones who keep experimenting, keep refining, and keep showing up—even when they're not getting the reach they want. So, if you’re thinking about creating videos, start today. And if you need help, holler at your boy! ✌️ Put Your Video on Easy ModePS. The best feeling in the world, though, is when I help people post their first-ever video! 💙 |

I call Nat Berman the most generous man on LinkedIn. And after our conversation yesterday, I finally understand why. This homey used to spend 6-8 hours a day commenting on LinkedIn. 500+ comments daily. Until LinkedIn started thinking he was a bot. But here's what’s really wild… In 5 years of daily posting, he's had exactly ONE post go over 100,000 views. Yet he's built a 7-figure business. How? T-shirts. Nat only wears 80s and 90s movie t-shirts. Breakfast Club. Ferris Bueller. The Goonies....
I was planning on using this weekend to relax and recharge. But since it poured buckets on Saturday and my kids went to a birthday party, I decided to build something special for you. So far this year, I've had 168 sales meetings with founders and experts. And one piece of information that I learn from every call is... Their No. 1 biggest frustration with content. And there are 2 problems that come up more than others: 1- Never knowing what to post 2- Creating content that doesn't convert I...
3 years ago today, I was in a pretty dark place 100 pounds overweight. Emptying my 401k just to cover the mortgage. Stressed beyond belief because I was failing to provide for my family. So naturally, I did what any rational person would do... I quit my job. I moved my family across the country and went all-in on myself. Everyone thought I'd lost it. (Including my parents) But here's what happened next: I built a $700k solo business (zero employees) Dropped 100 pounds Took my first family...
