Great insights:
- Marketing is not another tool to sell, good marketing is involved in product building and shaping the brand language
- You’ve to be consistently good to be recognised as a brand.
- Brand needs to be likeable and consistent (consistent personality eg zomato minimalism)
- Create some form of engagement, Bulls eye here is if you get someone to share
- When you put something on your profile, you are building your brand, its not about content, its about who you are
- We share relatable content in order to stand out
- Topical stuff is easy bait to get people to share - You are offloading the cognitive load of someone’s else to have their own take and People love hot takes.
- Hyper positivity gets people to share. When in doubt become cute/happy (as in social media).
- Nostalgia works really well.
- Extreme opinion is another tool, strong definitive take. People love it when someone has a spine.
- Trigger someone’s identity (like patriotism, Gujarati)
- Emotional stuff
- Personal Relatability like 10 things tall guy will understand
- Basics for viral ads - 30 secs, celebrity helps, visually or audiolly beautiful so jingle works
- Way to look for any form of incroguence - x is expected but y happens (ismain tedha kya hai, celebrity/situation k sath kuch tedha karlo)
- Consistency is good for brand but incongruence is good for content engagement
- Problem is saying too much
- Tanmay Bhat process to get in the zone - he has a person whose job is to give him references - what best minds thought about it already
- More conglomerate more bearuacratic process, less risk taking appetite
- Feedback loop - do more and get feedback
- Take enough shots to gain a better probability of landing it on the desired spot
Why do people demand the resignation of the Education Minister over paper leaks issue? A resignation alone may not immediately fix the problem.
True, but it can establish accountability and help restore public faith in the system.
- When senior officials are held responsible for major failures under their watch, it creates an incentive for future leaders to maintain stronger oversight.
- It signals that public offices carry responsibility, not just authority.
- It reinforces democratic accountability.
- 3 Rules to apply for every sentence
- Can i visualise it? - If you cant visualise it, you wont remember it
- Can i falsify it?
- Can nobody else say this?
- Eg for more Yes:
- Worn by supermodels in London and dads in Ohio
- Eg for more No:
- Dont just get a job. Change an entire industry.
What is God? God is a construction to justify the 'unknown factor'. Some call it luck or some call it destiny.
