My First Million

The best business ideas come from noticing what's working and doing it better, faster, or for a different audience.

Back to Beliefs

Young people have inherent ability to impact culture and create meaning

Evidence

Viral memes like 67 spread organically without adult intervention and influence mainstream culture

Implication

Brands should support rather than try to control youth culture creation

Counter Belief

Professional marketers and established brands are better at creating lasting cultural impact

Example Application

Partner with young creators as authentic brand faces rather than trying to manufacture cultural moments through traditional marketing
