new brand launching 02/2027 ; prev. CEO & CoFounder of @Ad_Beacon

Joined November 2022
For those of you who have no clue who I am but keep seeing my name pop up... don't worry, you're not alone. I've been in marketing for 6 years and have worked with companies such as: Disney, SUPRA Footwear, K-Swiss Global Brands, Brixton, Modelo, Safariland and so many more. Scaling our portfolio of work 180% YoY etc. I grew up in the age of "no budgets" and a scrappy mentality. Launching brand campaigns off of strategic collaborations, organic/influencer takeovers and psychotic onsite activations. Selling out e-comm collections within minutes without $1 in digital ad spend and rubbing elbows with the biggest executives in the business at 23. My ego was high and my bank account low. Then something changed my life. An incredible woman by the name of Luiza took me under her wing and taught me about paid social. Holy shit did that rock my world because my obsessive nature kicked into gear. Within a year I was blessed with the Director of Paid Social position (I'm really fucking obsessive), just to be smacked again with iOS14.5. We lost people, clients and most of all, morale. We had to pivot, so again, the solution obsession kicked in. I was speaking at events (AdWorld/Affiliate World/@GeekEx_Edu ) and testing out loud. Showing people what we did, wins and losses. A/B testing Android vs. Apple devices, creating frameworks that enticed recurring traffic to reduce CPA & increase LTV during an unstable time. I honestly just wanted to share and learn more. Nobody was sharing how they were pivoting - they either wanted to sell courses or explain what iOS14.5 was. No solutions. So, naturally, I slid in.. hard. As we were testing strategies, we were also testing first party data/attribution platforms. This is where things got interesting - I didn't see anything on the market tailored towards media buyers. The platforms were clunky, UI/UX wasn't great and a lot of things just didn't make sense for my team to succeed. That lead to -> fuck it, I want to build it the way I know will result in value and impact. After beta testing for 8 months, we rebuilt our portfolio of business with bigger brands. Our positioning changed to partner vs. media buyer with our clients and it was officially time for me to phase out and be the CEO of AdBeacon full time to further out this dream. Along this journey I met some incredible people. @smaxor @jordanrmenard @laurentickner @iamshackelford @_zoekahn_ @ImChaseMohseni (so many more) People who align with the mentality that giving more than receiving is the key. Genuine relationships and value exceed that of hype and empty vanity. I'm beyond blessed to call these people my friends. But above all, I'm even more blessed to be in a community that craves creativity, resourcefulness and supports other's wins. If you want to send me screenshots of success - that's cool, I could show you mine too. But if you want to talk about the crazy creative back end shit you did to get there, say less, I'm there.

A reckoning in CPG is coming (whiterabbit.vip)
.@jordanmenard says the era of the 400 person ecomm team is ending. With margins tight, OpEx is the only place left to get it back and AI helps. Reality will look more like a SEAL Team Six model: leaders with authority, decentralized and fast.

Since then, exited AdBeacon, became the VP of Social Commerce at Instant Hydration, built an agency - and now, launching something huge. A reckoning in CPG

You’re gonna see this post and scroll past it. This is a mistake. We sat down with @jordanmenard who told us his entire playbook. He scaled Instant Hydration to $100m + a year. Stepped down, and is launching a new business to help solve aging. You will learn a lot. Just like I did.

Every legit advertiser in that auction is bidding against the scammers, too. + Food Prices Are Up 34.5% Since 2019 Per @KobeissiLetter, US food prices are up 34.5% since 2019, the highest on record. That’s the wallet your Q4 offer is competing with. Is there a middle left in the K-shaped economy to be selling to? + TikTok Bans Peptide Content TikTok reportedly wiped peptide content regardless of FDA status. Searching “BPC-157” returns nothing. Searching “reta” serves eating-disorder resources. This hits a category with 230M+ documented views right as peptide fundraising goes vertical and RFK talks legalization. @jefftangx is on the show to break down the whole peptide economy. — — — Great Finds: - @amazon Plans 300k Holiday Hires, Up 20% - Blue Ox Bets on Step-In Work Boots - @GoBrewing to Launch Cold Standard - Marro’s Sparkling Bone Broth is a thing? - LISA x @PlayStation DualSense - Who Is This For? xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1oJMvNyON…

Not many people know this, but years ago I interviewed @londonspilker He was young, hungry, and almost too smart for his own good. It was a crazy season of life, and watching what he's gone on to build has been one of the coolest things Years later, we FINALLY caught up. Both huge fans of eachother, both just overwhelmingly grateful to have had the chance to pour into eachother's lives We talked about life. The people we want to become. The futures we see for ourselves. How much has changed, and how much still matters I've always been impressed by his talent. He's the kind of guy who's hands-on-keyboard, wants to learn EVERYTHING, and will run through every wall to figure something out But what impresses me most is his character. There's something really special about watching someone grow into not just an incredible professional, but an even better human being Anyway, long tweet short, I'm a huge fan of this guy. Not just for what he's building, but for who he's becoming. He's a good one. Follow him. I'm also low key forcing him to tweet more value bombs because the topics on X are so boring these days guys

want to take your brand to $100k per day in profitable spend? well... skale.guru is finally here - and live. yes. it's actually called skale.guru @Jason______A @iamshackelford and myself - three operators, $1B+ in sales. One call a week - the whole room stops and takes one member's business apart until it's fixed. and yes - you read that correctly, we will LITERALLY work on your business WITH you. if you think $5k is a lot - save us both the time and don't click this. if you think getting Jason, Shack, and myself every week for $5k is an unbelievable steal, click the link below. Also, we have an incubator - think Shark Tank, except the sharks show up every week. And if your business is good, we don't just advise. We invest. this is $5,000/mo. First five pay $2,500 for life and sit at the front of the line. Then it prices back up and never comes down. Most of you will think about it and pay double in October. skale.guru
