Key Takeaways
Invest in the ecosystem around your core business, as high-conviction investments in tools you already use can often yield higher returns than the business itself.
Adopt the 'fat pitch' investing philosophy by remaining patient and only swinging at opportunities that fall within your specific 'sweet spot' of competence.
Focus on 'Text-Based Bangers' (TBB) for audience growth rather than simple consistency; high-impact, high-value individual pieces of content drive more growth than frequent, mediocre posts.
