Joey Vowels a friend of the podcast and CMO of Tykes joins the podcast to talk all things Web 3.0 marketing, Twitter spaces and the power of personal branding in web 3.0, AI and more.

Some key takeaways:

Joey Vowels emphasizes the importance of connecting with people in social media, particularly in Twitter spaces.

Joey Vowels shares their experience with social media marketing agencies that promise to grow followers but fail to convert them into customers.

Joey Vowels expresses their love for Twitter spaces and the value of shared voices and different experiences in discussing topics like NFTs.

Joey Vowels shares their journey in launching an agency and growing their personal brand, eventually becoming the chief marketing officer at Tikes.

Joey Vowels reminds clients that while social media management and design can attract followers and members, it is ultimately their responsibility to convince them to buy their products or services.

The Essence of Twitter Spaces

Twitter Spaces provided a platform for the marketer to connect with like-minded individuals and share his experiences. While not all Twitter Spaces are good, there are some great shows and content that provide valuable insights. The marketer also appreciated the shared voices that often had different experiences and projects in the NFT space.

Launching an Agency

After successfully launching a project, the marketer decided to join forces with a couple of people he met in the space and launch an agency. They worked on about 20 different projects in 2022, covering everything from Discord to smart contracts to marketing.

Growing a Personal Brand

In 2023, the marketer focused on growing his personal brand by showcasing his business experience and who he is as a person. This led to him becoming the chief marketing officer at Tikes, where he currently works.

The Reality of Social Media Marketing

While social media marketing promises growth, it ultimately falls on the individual to convince their followers to buy their product. The marketer acknowledges that he can promise followers and Discord members, but he cannot guarantee that any of them will buy an NFT.

In conclusion, Twitter Spaces has become a valuable platform for social media marketers to connect and share their experiences. While it may not be a guaranteed path to success, it provides a space for individuals to learn and grow their personal brand.

In this episode, Fanzo discusses his journey of understanding the nuances and cultural relevance of meme cryptocurrencies. He talks about the rise of meme coins like Shiba Inu and Dogecoin, and admits his initial misunderstanding about the Pepe coin, a cryptocurrency named after the Pepe the Frog meme.

Fanzo reveals how he initially dismissed the Pepe coin due to its controversial history, but after a deep dive into the community and its motivations, he had a change of heart. He describes how he found a sense of shared identity and representation within the Pepe community. Fanzo’s newfound understanding of the coin led him to watch a documentary about the original artist of Pepe, Matt Fury. He highly recommends this documentary titled "Feels Good Man" for anyone in the web 3.0 and NFT space as it provides insights into the digital world, art ownership, and the power of community.

Fanzo stresses the importance of conducting one's own research and understanding risk tolerance before venturing into cryptocurrency. He likens the cryptocurrency space to a casino, emphasizing that the connection, identity, and community in cryptocurrency surpass the speculative nature often associated with the stock market.

Finally, he discusses the potential intersection of NFTs and tokens, arguing that they can share in value, ownership, and execution. He refers to the ADHD coin he launched and the Winn Mint team's tokens as examples of this model in action.

Key Takeaways:

1. The importance of understanding the cultural relevance and community behind meme coins.

2. How cryptocurrencies can provide shared identity and representation for its holders.

3. The recommendation of the documentary "Feels Good Man" for a better understanding of the digital art space.

4. The need for individual research and risk evaluation in the crypto space.

5. The potential of tokens and NFTs to collaborate and create shared value.

Disclaimer:

This episode is not financial advice. Always do your own research and understand your own risk tolerance before investing in any tokens or NFTs.

In this episode, I dive deep into the fascinating topic of the "Importance of Digital Identity in the Creator Economy."

I've been reflecting a lot recently on the value of a digital identity that does more than list out companies I've worked with - I envision an identity that truly displays the impact I've had on the products and services of these businesses. Having such a comprehensive and immutable record of my digital footprint could significantly attract more sponsors to this podcast, allowing us to continue delivering high-value content.

In the thriving creator economy, we often overlook the power of our story, message, and digital footprint. During the episode, I stress the importance of understanding that our digital identity is more than just a working relationship with various brands. It's about showcasing our audience, the actions they take, and the influence we wield.

One topic that I'm incredibly passionate about is the connection between our personal brand and digital identity. I firmly believe that our digital identity should be a perfect blend of our digital and offline footprints, seamlessly integrated with the brand and reputation we've built over time. And it's not just about the present - imagine a future where our credit reports include our digital identity! This could be an immutable way to record proof of work, execution, advocacy, allyship, and countless other positive contributions we make.

As someone who is a strong advocate for mental health awareness, specifically around ADHD and dyslexia, I believe our digital identities should reflect these values as well. Our actions should always align with our words, and our digital identity should be a testament to what we stand for.

There's a certain thrill that comes with exploring the digital identity landscape, especially in the context of the creator economy. There's no denying the potential risks of emerging technology. Still, I'm a firm believer that it can also be used to celebrate the good and empower individuals to gain access to our wallets and digital identities.

To sum it up, understanding and utilizing our digital identity is absolutely critical in the creator economy. It's not just about recording our work or the brands we collaborate with, but it's about standing for something and ensuring our actions back up our words. The potential for our digital identity to serve as a record of advocacy, allyship, and positive contributions is truly exciting, and I can't wait to see how it shapes our future.

Tune in, learn, and let's grow together in this digital era.

The stigma and bias towards NFTs in the creator community is due to misconceptions about NFTs, their association with hype, and their perceived elitism and exclusivity. However, NFTs have potential benefits, including digital ownership, provenance tracking, and new revenue models.

Digital ownership can create transparent and equitable systems for community building and incentivize audiences to participate and contribute to the creator's success. Artificial intelligence (AI) can help creators and community managers understand their audience's behavior and preferences, optimize their content and community strategy, and detect and address moderation, spam, and fraud issues. Digital ownership can create more sustainable and empowering models for online community building and monetization, such as the creator economy and DAOs. By leveraging blockchain technology and other decentralized tools, communities can create new opportunities for participation and ownership and build more resilient and empowered ecosystems.

Takeaways from this episode:

NFTs have faced stigma and bias from some creators due to misconceptions, skepticism, and cultural concerns. Efforts must be made to educate creators about the potential benefits of NFTs and to ensure they are seen as a tool for community building and empowerment.

Digital ownership in the community can transform how online communities are built and scaled for creators in Web 3.0 and beyond. By creating unique and valuable digital assets using blockchain technology, creators can monetize their work in new ways and have greater control over their online presence.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is expected to play a significant role in the digital ownership future of community building within Web 3.0. With the increasing amount of data generated by online communities, AI can help creators and community managers make sense of this data and extract insights to inform their decision-making.

Examples of digital ownership include the concept of a creator economy, where creators can own and monetize digital content directly without relying on intermediaries, and DAOs, which are community-owned and operated organizations governed by smart contracts on a blockchain. These examples demonstrate the potential for digital ownership to create more sustainable and equitable models for community building and monetization.

In this episode, Fanzo discusses the impact of AI on jobs, industries, and mental health. Fanzo argues that AI will create new jobs and unlock things that we don't even know exist yet. Fanzo also talks about the overwhelm and disconnect that can come from being involved in the NFT space and shares his approach to controlling the inputs to manage his output better. He suggests separating inputs by creating new accounts and recommends everyone to look at their inputs, including friend circles and social media. Here are 4 takeaways from this episode:

The rise of social media and digital communication has greatly impacted the way people connect and engage with each other, creating a more open and collaborative environment.

Technology has the power to bring people together, bridge gaps, and help build a more inclusive society. However, it is important to acknowledge and address the digital divide to ensure everyone has access to these tools and benefits.

Embracing change and being open to new ideas is essential in today's fast-paced world. Adapting to new technologies and trends can help individuals and businesses stay competitive and relevant.

Authenticity, transparency, and empathy are key components of successful communication in the digital age. Building trust and meaningful connections with others requires genuine interactions and a willingness to listen and understand different perspectives.
