Full Episode
In a world of commoditized products, how do you stand out and become not a product people want to spend money on, but a person that people want to spend money on?
Yes, exactly. And you buy the product because this person has given me so much value in my day-to-day life. Therefore, you're like tipping the creator's journey. This is the beginning, like this packaging where the people are in the packaging is the beginning of a bigger trend, which is they're going to take more and more real estate
Like the chocolate you see over here, like is still 99% of the packaging. And the people is only 2%. In the future, I'm sure it'll be like 50% the people, 50% the chocolate.
Yeah, might even be the opposite of what it is now, where it might be 90% the people and 10% the chocolate, which could be interesting.

Yeah, of course, man. Greg, it's really good to see you. And I know you swung through my living area many months ago and we got a chance to have a bite to eat together. And so here I am ready to talk to our buddies.
So you have a few ideas on your list here. Maybe let's start with the first one because it's something I've been thinking about too. You want to hit it?

And I've talked to a bunch of my friends who are creators or entrepreneurs and have followings. And some of them have started the book process. Others have finished it. Some are...
try and decide whether or not to get into that process. And it feels like it's really cumbersome. And there's a lot of unanswered questions. It feels like the negotiation, the advance, picking the agent, picking the editor. And maybe it's because I'm removed from it and I have not been through the process. But it feels cumbersome. And it feels a bit scary and intimidating.
