JUN 28, 202460 MIN

Description

One million followers in 30 days…sounds crazy, right? Not if you’re my guest today. Brendan Kane is a growth hacker for Fortune 500 corporations, brands, and celebrities like Taylor Swift, Rihanna, Katie Couric to name a few. 

He got his start in the entertainment world and elevated to Vice President of Digital for Paramount Pictures. He is now the best-selling author of the book One Million Followers and just released his second book Hook Point: How to Stand Out in a 3-Second World

Highlights from our conversation:

  • What a "hook point" is and why it is so valuable to understand how to use them
  • How Taylor Swift turns fans into brand advocates
  • Why the testing is so vital (3 part testing equation)
  • Why we need to focus on pattern interruption in this noisy world
  • Misconceptions from his book 
  • Characteristics of shareable content
  • Facebook as a market research tool 
  • Why we shouldn't ignore emerging markets
  • Working with Katie Couric on over 200 celebrity interviews
