345. This Cookie Outsells Billboards: Fortune Cookie Marketing w/ Shawn Porat
Billboards, bus wraps, and TV ads are fighting for the same split-second of attention.
But what if you could get your brand in front of someone at the exact moment they’re relaxed, focused, and open to suggestion — without competing against 20 other lawyers in the same space?
Shawn Porat is the founder and Chief Fortune Officer of OpenFortune — the media platform turning the humble fortune cookie into a high-impact PI marketing channel. With distribution across 30 countries and 300M impressions a month, OpenFortune has delivered viral wins for brands like Capital One, Duolingo, and even investor Gary Vaynerchuk — who calls it “the new Super Bowl ad.”
For the first time, Shawn’s team is inviting personal injury brands to join the party.
In this episode, Shawn shares the strategy, the science, and the stories behind turning a slip of paper into a marketing powerhouse. If you think billboards are your only out-of-home option, think again.
In this conversation, Shawn shares:
-
Why 6% of fortune cookies get posted to social media (and how to make yours one of them)
-
How Gary Vee called OpenFortune “the new Super Bowl spot” — and bought in
-
Ways PI firms can connect without the hard sell — and still win cases
-
The measurable tactics that turn a dinner table moment into long-term brand recall
