The Rise and Fall of Clout
This chapter explores the acquisition and eventual demise of Clout, a platform that measured social media influence through a Clout score. The speakers discuss the relevance of such services in today's influencer marketing landscape and alternative ways to assess influence.
Episode 492: Shaan Puri (https://twitter.com/ShaanVP) and Sam Parr (https://twitter.com/thesamparr) are back with a classic business brainstorm episode. They share 9 business ideas — everything from Dribble for X, to capitalizing on the Ozempic mega-trend, to building an AI-enabled marketplace for teachers.
