  • Welcome back to our podcast! In this episode, we explore the innovative and occasionally controversial methods that businesses employ to grab our attention and influence our food preferences.

    We begin with a story about a London restaurant that served meals prepared with insects to show how effective marketing may persuade us to try new foods and appreciate different cuisines. We then cover shock marketing, which is a strategy used by businesses to stir up controversy and attract media attention. Furthermore, we look at the ethical issues that come up when businesses adopt shock marketing, such as the recent campaign for woolly mammoth meatballs, which sparked concerns about the commercialization of science and the consumption of extinct animals.

  • Are you struggling to gain traction with your YouTube Shorts content? Are you tired of creating videos that have a massive drop-off rate? Well, you're in luck because a former YouTube employee, Robert Benjamin, has leaked valuable information about the YouTube Shorts algorithm that can help you gain more subscribers and viewers on YouTube. In his video, Robert discusses the optimal length of Shorts, how to revive underperforming videos, and much more.

    The key takeaway from Robert's video is that most Shorts that go viral are between 17 to 25 seconds long. Many creators are making their Shorts too short or too long, leading to a decrease in watch time. The algorithm rewards videos that keep viewers on the platform for longer periods of time, leading to increased engagement and higher chances of being recommended to a wider audience.

    Robert also emphasizes the importance of creating content that is relevant to your audience's interests and generates sufficient watch time. Videos less than five seconds long are not recommended, as they do not provide enough content for YouTube to evaluate. If a video does not receive enough watch time or has no audience interested in the content, it can become deprioritized or even obsolete.

    To succeed with YouTube Shorts, Robert suggests creating a massive list of subjects and covering them in 20-second videos. This strategy can help target a wider audience, enabling you to learn which subjects perform the best and turn them into long-form videos.

    The YouTube seeding process is also crucial to gain views, as YouTube tries to identify who might be interested in the video based on the title, description, and tags. The video is then seeded to a small audience, and if it performs well, it will be pushed to more people. Videos on YouTube can be evergreen, meaning they can continue to gain views long after their initial posting.

    In conclusion, Robert Benjamin's insider knowledge about the YouTube Shorts algorithm can help creators gain more traction and engagement on the platform. By creating relevant content, keeping viewers engaged, and learning from your experiences, you can increase your chances of going viral and reaching a wider audience.

  • Entrepreneurship is an exciting and rewarding journey, but it's not without its risks. Statistics show that approximately 75% of all start-ups in the United States fail. To increase your chances of success, it's crucial to avoid some of the most common mistakes that entrepreneurs make. In this podcast episode, our host shares valuable insights into these mistakes and how to avoid them.

    One of the biggest mistakes that entrepreneurs make is thinking they know everything. It's impossible to possess all the skills and expertise required to make a business a success. Therefore, it's essential to surround yourself with people who have diverse skill sets and backgrounds that complement your own. This can help you build a team that shares your vision and passion for the business. Seeking advice from experienced professionals in your industry can also offer guidance and support.

    Marketing is critical to the success of any business, but many entrepreneurs underestimate its importance. Effective marketing involves creating a strong brand and messaging strategy that communicates your values, vision, and what makes your business unique. It's also about understanding your target audience and their needs so that you can tailor your offerings to meet them. Without a strong marketing plan, it will be challenging to generate awareness and interest in your products or services.

    Another significant mistake that entrepreneurs make is failing to understand their customers. The success of any business is determined by its ability to solve a problem and provide value to its customers. To do this, you need to understand your target audience and their motivations, pain points, and needs. Conducting market research, which includes surveys and focus groups, is an essential tool for gaining these insights.

    By avoiding these common mistakes, you can increase your chances of building a successful and thriving business. Remember that it takes time, effort, and dedication, but with the right mindset and approach, anything is possible.

    To gain more valuable business tips and insights, remember to subscribe, like, and recommend the podcast to your friends.
