I feel like sometimes you can spot a brand early(ish) that's about to absolutely rip Sourmilk Yogurt feels like it's going to be huge in a year or two

Reviewing some whitelisting/ partnership ads data: - 40% of our account is partnership ads - The cohort of creators who post organically/ sponsored on IG outperforms UGC only. There might be other factors but it’s essentially “free” whitelisting because we can run the sponsored program at breakeven at least and then get “free” ad rights for 30 days on all of it. - Had our first big win with a “macro” creator. Going to do much more of this; likely will test 1-3 macros per each launch. - want a combo of sizes; performance is not directly correlated to size. (That’s what she said). But larger accounts can crush and drive great net new reach, even if in platform metrics are not great. - We’re launching a Haus test to see if there is a higher incrementality factor on these; my hypothesis is we can run partnership at a 40% lower 1DC than BAU assets - We launch all concepts in ABO; guarantee $1k spend and we’ll begin scale up if leading indicators look good within 2 days. - We’ll scale up a few different ways depending on how good performance is, how big of a bet we wanna take, and how much we spent on the content - I don’t wanna say it’s perfect but I do think we’ve “cracked” this program after probably 6-9 months of work. Now it’s time to really scale and take some bigger bets. - Out next need is to crack and scale non-partnership creator ad funnels. Traditional DR “UGC” has never worked for us. We’re taking a confined organic/ paid creative strategy now and launching this new program in Jan. AMA about this. What questions do you have?

hiring for a frontend / design engineer may be one of my most challenging recruits thus far. $140-180k remote w/ NYC + LA HQs. Early role equity offering & ownership over our design patterns. the difference between good and great in this field keeps coming down to ease-of-communication and their willingness to break existing conventions. which is harder to find mostly because the off-the-shelf tools make everyone seem worth talking to, but hasn't been that compelling in my 5 weeks looking.

I’m starting to think that going all-in on whitelisting partnerships AT SCALE - like ripping hundreds of partnerships through a tool like Superfiliate or Leadsie - is the ultimate meta ads hack right now. Ignore creative strategy, ignore other marketing channels, just product seed like hell, whitelist them all, and beat the algorithm to death with creative volume. Toss them all into bid caps. Virtually no media buying. Focus all your time on partnerships. Would be absolutely insane levels of reach.

Off Script was started 4.5 years ago and is now joining @superfiliate 🦅 What started as a simple influencer storefront, turned into a full-stack marketplace builder powering many exciting curated marketplaces with hundreds of brands connected. While building Off Script, I got to know @dersss and @andycloyd from @superfiliate - all triggered by a DM here on this fine platform. I have been nothing but impressed since the first time I heard them speak with @bbols4 at the DTC Pod. They’re two of the clearest thinkers and most inspiring builders that I have met in the creator economy. Therefore, I am happy to say that Off Script and I will join I will join them on their growth journey ahead. To our colleagues, investors, partners and supporters, I feel nothing but gratefulness. Many of whom I've gotten to know via Twitter!! This has been the most intense learning experience I could ever imagine. I will also be spending more time in the US again so all of my LA friends and friends-to-be - looking forward to seeing you all soon! Now let's go! Rah-rah!

This is my favorite piece of brand content we've ever done..... (Worth a watch with headphones, full screen and music cranked :)... full goosebumps!) Othership Flatiron opens its doors today after 25 months of work. I'm more proud of this than anything else I've done in my life. Tag your NYC friends in the comments or repost with your favorite Othership moment for a complimentary pass. One of the highest rated immersive experiences in North America. It's pretty mindblowing.

I often think about how cool it’s going to be to look back in 5 years and realize you knew it was only a matter of time before those around you hit it big. Best advice I can give, surround yourself with A+ people. – at Brooklyn, NY
