The 10 Minute Personal Brand Kickstart (FREE): https://the505podcast.courses/personalbrandkickstart

What’s up, Rock Nation! Today we sit down with Caleb Ralston — the brand strategist behind the scenes of Gary Vee and Alex Hormozi, and the creator of the most in-depth content strategy course on the internet (yes, the 6.5 hour one).

In this episode, Caleb unpacks how to build a brand people want to copy, not just follow. He breaks down why your social strategy is broken, how to create content that scales trust, and the exact framework he uses to help brands go from overlooked to undeniable.

We talk positioning, white space, and why copying top creators will always leave you in second place. Caleb also shares why he dropped a free masterclass instead of selling a course, how it generated 250+ leads overnight, and the long-term thinking that makes him stand out in the most saturated space on the internet.

If you’re done chasing views and ready to build something that actually lasts, this is where it begins.
