Most people’s brand strategy is: Post and hope it works. They’re loud. They’re active. But they have no idea what they’re aiming at. It’s Alice in Wonderland energy: “If you don’t know where you’re going, any road’ll get you there.” The goal isn’t just to grow. It’s to grow toward something. Figure out the outcome. Reverse-engineer the brand that gets you there. No more wandering. No more “I’m just testing.” You’re either building with intent or burning momentum.

[Update] Honda changed their website and no longer uses “Buy Now”. Replace my analogy in the clip with Ford vs Ferrari. Ford = “View Offers” + they include pricing on their site. Ferrari = “Discover” + they do not include pricing on their site. Neither one is inherently better than the other. Just depends on your goals. Sure, Ford does more revenue and volume…Ferrari has much higher profit margins and deals with a different type of customer. All comes down to your desired outcome :) —————— It’s not just the exact words you use but the ideals and concepts you speak to. In this clip when I say a lot of other people in this space speak like Honda and I’m trying to speak like Aston Martin…I mean that a lot of people are sharing short term tactics for short term results. I almost exclusively speak in terms of principles and talk about building a brand for the long term. I speak to the individuals that are playing the long game…not looking for short term results and then dipping. Just like Aston Martin attracts a higher value customer, I believe talking about branding principles for the long game attracts a higher value customer than say “post your reels at this time every Tuesday”. Not saying one is better than the other (Honda does well lol)…just sharing how I’m applying this thinking based on my preferences. But I’m curious, what do you think? Do you agree?

The Brand Journey Framework: 1. What do I want to have happen? 2. What would I have to be known for in order for that goal to happen? 3. What would I have to do in order to be known for the thing that makes my goal happen? 4. What would I have to learn in order to do the thing, to be known for the thing, to make my goal happen? If you can answer those honestly, you’ll know what you’re building toward and why it matters.

Most brands have no clarity. They post, they create, they chase trends… but they have no idea what it’s all building toward. This is why I created the Brand Journey Framework. It’s four simple questions that provide an immense amount of clarity: 1. What do I want to have happen? 2. What would I have to be known for in order for that goal to happen? 3. What would I have to do in order to be known for the thing that makes my goal happen? 4. What would I have to learn in order to do the thing, to be known for the thing, to make my goal happen? If you can answer those honestly, you’ll know what you’re building toward and why it matters.

If you’re building a personal brand, I usually recommend that you set the monetization bar low in the beginning. Like… really low. I usually tell people to not expect any real monetary outcome for at least 36 months. Views too, like I mention in the video. That’s three years of posting without needing it to pay you back. Because the reality of how it goes for most is: Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. One thing pops. Then it’s back to what you had before. But if you can stomach that for two to three years, you’ll actually give yourself a shot at winning. And if you happen to be in the minority that pops within 6 months, amazing! Love that for you. I just prefer to go into things with a long term mindset, not short term.

If your space feels crowded, that’s not a bad thing. It means there’s already proof that people care about what you do. And it gives you a clear view of what everyone else is doing, so you can do the opposite. Most people in saturated markets all sound the same because they’re copying what’s “working.” But if you look close, what’s actually working is the differentiation itself. Study the patterns. Then break them. If you’re wondering where to start, here’s a quick exercise for you. Grab a sheet of paper. On the left, write down everything people in your industry say or do that you disagree with. On the right, write the opposite. That’s your playbook.

Most creators get stuck doing the same thing that’s already working. It’s safe. It’s predictable. But it’s also where growth starts to stall. The real breakthroughs happen in the experiments. The ones with limited data, limited proof, and no guarantee. If you can get comfortable playing in that space, you stop chasing trends and start creating the stuff other people copy. 70% –> What you know works 20% –> Iterations on that 70% 10% –> Experimenting with entirely new shit

One clip repurposed on every platform isn’t the blueprint to blow up anymore. It’s still a great way to get started and keep a sustainable process (like I’m doing right now). But if you want to hit that next level, you’ve gotta think about each platform like its own room. You talk differently with your friends than you do with your parents. Even if just the fact that you talk about different subject matter. You tell different stories at Saturday brunch with the girls than you do at a business event. It’s all still you, you’re just adjusting for the room you’re in. Social works the same way. The idea can stay the same, but how you package it has to fit the environment. That’s how you stop blending in and start standing out.

Comment “free” for the YouTube link 👊 2025 has been an insane year for me...a big part of it was the free 6.5 hour course we released on my youtube channel back in April. Turns out...it was a good decision. That crazy bet turned into over 730,000 views (as of writing this), 31,000 directly attributable subscribers of our 71,000 total, but most importantly...our email list grew from 0 to 41,000 in 8 months. 36,487 of those came directly from the course. Comment “free” to get the link to watch my 33min 45sec video on YouTube talking about why I did it, the results we got, and how you can do your own. Appreciate y’all big time. The support this year has been incredible, I’m grateful for each and everyone one of you.

@calebralston knows that luck is a lie. Since we’ve known him, we have seen him work tirelessly to accomplish his vision. When he ran @_wildmedia , he was ahead of his time, putting out some of the sickest cinematic content on the scene. After having work with some major heavyweights, he is building his own company and crushing it through sheer grit, talent and hustle. Luck is a lie, hard work and dedication is not. For this, @calebralston is CRSD - like the rest of us. If this resonates with you, check out our store, grab a tshirt and join us! . . . . . #crsd #forevercrsd
