THE TRUST YOU BUILD IS THE FOUNDATION YOUR WORK REQUIRES
Sari Azout of Sublime talks about a post with a million views doing very little in terms of revenue, but a video with far fewer views being more valuable.
“Attention is cheap and volatile. Trust is slow, expensive and durable, and I think if something reaches a lot of people but creates no relationship, that’s not distribution. That’s just noise.”
We don’t want to build for “eyeballs,” we want to build for the right audience, the right reader, the right fan. To make our work in our own weird, magical way that sends the right signal to the people who appreciate our weird, magical work.
“There’s a way to show up and promote your product where you feel authentically you, and your job is to figure out what that format is.”
There are jobs out there that are one of one, and that’s the job you’re hiring yourself for.
