In this episode of the Elevate Media Podcast, Chris Anderson sits down with viral marketing expert and AI creator Austin Armstrong to break down the real art of going viral without chasing shortcuts. From posting 20 to 25 times a day on Facebook to building micro SaaS with vibe coding, Austin shares exactly how he has generated billions of views, built multiple seven-figure businesses, and stacked numerous streams of income using social media the smart way.
 

In this episode, you will learn:

• How to niche down, define your ideal client persona, and choose the right platform and format for them. 
• Austin’s “START” video framework for turning views into trust and leads
• Why he posts 20 to 25 times a day on Facebook and how collaboration pods and simple text threads are driving tens of millions of views
• How to walk the line between clickbait, controversy, and ethical engagement
• Why perfectionism is just procrastination in disguise and how quantity leads to quality over time 
• What vibe coding is and how non-technical creators can build micro SaaS tools that generate recurring revenue
