1) YouTube is eating all media:

• 20 hours/month average watch time

• 5x more than Netflix

• Mr. Beast: "YouTube will eat all of media"

2) Three metrics that matter:

• Click-through rate (CTR)

• Average view duration (AVD)

• Average view percentage (AVP)

"These are the holy trinity of YouTube metrics" - Bilal

3) Jenga storytelling method:

• Show end goal upfront

• Build tension throughout

• Example: Last to take hand off Lamborghini wins it

4) Minute-by-minute retention strategy:

• Minute 1: Most crucial, invest in lighting

• Minutes 1-3: Show rapid story progression

• Minute 3: Re-engage viewers with a big moment

"At 6 minutes, viewers are on autopilot to the end" - Mr. Beast

5) A, B, C player framework:

• A players: Obsessive, coachable, best in the world

• B players: New hires with A player potential

• C players: "Poisonous", transition out immediately

"C players are awful to work with. I know, I've been one." - Trunk

6) Creativity saves money:

• $20k cash prize vs. year's supply of Doritos

• Doritos prize more viral, costs only $1,300

• Think outside the box for engaging rewards
