In this episode, I talk to Sam Ocean, a master at offers and monetization, and the man behind numerous large influencers across social media.

Sam has operated in a supporting role for most of his career, helping big creators maintain and optimize their brands for revenue and exposure. More recently, he's stepped out of the shadows to create a personal brand of his own, establishing incredible authority through his descriptive and experience-driven writing and speaking.

Today, we talk about which platforms Sam thinks are the most valuable, the important nuances between direct response and branding, and how he's using X to build his network and his influence.
