Eric talks about that value going to the question, the questioner and the insight.

And I think that if I look at this from a business perspective,

Where does that value start to anchor?

And I think that there are probably three areas.

One area is the data.

So it doesn't matter how good an app is, if it doesn't have the data that is relevant to make it good, it's going to be irrelevant.

So I think that data becomes important.

I think the second thing that starts to become important is distribution.

It's going to be harder and harder to stand out.

You have to be hyper, hyper viral in order to do that.

So existing distribution, I think, may start to benefit people.

And I think the third thing is, what is the insight that you have, the really specific take that speaks to something about the world that doesn't currently exist, which is what building anything is, right?

You don't build something that's already there.

And the interesting thing is that all of those, many of those things correlate to one thing, which is customers, right?

Because customers can be a source of data.

They can be a source of insight.

They express what their problems are.

And they are also your distribution angle.

So one idea I'm noodling with is the importance of that customer centricity.

And hopefully, you know, within the premium members of Exponential View over the year, you'll start to see the fruits of some of that.
