This Is How You Should Actually Make Launch Videos

There’s a misconception that a successful launch video needs to cost tens of thousands of dollars and feel like a high-production commercial. But Farza Majeed has a different approach. Farza is the founder of Clicky and previously built Buildspace, one of the largest online schools for people working on their own ideas. He’s been making videos for over a decade, and today his posts regularly get millions of views. Rather than treating launches as rare, high-stakes moments, he’s made them part of the everyday process of building a company. Farza sat down with YC’s Aaron Epstein to share his playbook for turning demos into stories people actually want to watch. He breaks down how he scripts videos that still feel off the cuff, why founders should launch constantly, and how to figure out which channels actually convert.

  These days, too many founders think launching is all about spending a ton of time and money to produce a slick video and hoping it hits. But my guest today, Farza Majeed, has a totally different approach to launching and going viral.

• 0:12Speaker 01

  All right, this is everything we shipped this week.

• 0:14Speaker 00

  Well, shipping, right?

• 0:15Speaker 02

  Are we shipping? No, they're shipping.

• 0:17Speaker 00

  He's the founder of Hey Clicky, where his posts regularly get millions of views.

• 0:21Speaker 01

  My formula is always the same. Yep. This is who I am, this is what's going on, this is what I'm working on, let me show you. Everyone wants a story, and so how can a demo just be a mini story?

• 0:31Speaker 00

  And today, he's going to share his playbook for how to create videos that actually convert.

• 0:44Speaker 00

  Farza, thanks for being here.

• 0:46Speaker 01

  No problem.

• 0:47Speaker 00

  Before we jump into some of your advice, why don't you tell us a little bit about your background, how you got to this point?

• 0:51Speaker 01

  Yeah, I started my first company when I was 13, selling stuff on eBay. 10 years later, started getting into software and built an online school for kids, which I did YC for in 2020 with you. That turned into a company called BuildSpace, which became one of the largest schools for people who wanted to work on their own ideas, and now working on Hey Clicky, a new interface for AI.

• 1:10Speaker 00

  Doing videos has always been kind of a core strategy for you for how to reach out to people, and especially with BuildSpace, and now with Hey Clicky. It's how you've gotten a lot of attention for your products and your businesses. How have you thought about that? And talk about your progression from when you got started with video up until now.

• 1:27Speaker 01

  Yeah, I mean, to this day, I just love making videos, making online videos for people. And these days, I'm working on my own company, and so the story that's in front of me is actually my company's story. And so it's been really fun to just tell that online. And it just so happens that making videos in 2026 is really good for business, too, so, yeah.

• 1:44Speaker 00

  Yeah, tell us about that. So you've been making videos for over a decade, publishing them online. Talk about what's changed, like, what is different now in making launch videos and getting attention for your product in 2026 that's different from how it was over the last decade?

• 1:58Speaker 01

  Yeah, I mean, you know, we, me and you were in YC together in 2020, you know, you as my partner. I mean, yeah, back then, you know, you were doing, we had to do stuff like post a Hacker News, post a Product Hunt, go to Reddit, like, find the right subreddit, you know, like that, those types of launches. And things have changed so much now. There are so many new channels now where our users are living across all products. It doesn't matter what you're working on, it could be drones, or AI, or like, whatever, a dating app. Your users are on many new platforms, mostly algorithmic platforms like X, LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube. The biggest change is, you're not really making posts anymore. You're actually just constantly launching all the time on these algorithmic platforms.

• 2:36Speaker 00

  Yeah, we see that a lot with founders in the YC batch, where they think a lot about, they have to put in all this time and energy and money to make some big fancy launch video and coordinate this big coordinated launch in the hopes that that's going to be their big moment and everything's going to take off. But you don't think about it like that, like, I think your perspective is very interesting.

• 2:55Speaker 01

  Yeah, there was a time where that was the meta. You know, like, you gotta do like a fancy thing and make it a big deal, because you got one shot. You get that TechCrunch article, or you get like that, the press in the New York Times or something like that, you needed something kind of nice to go with it. But now, all the old media is kind of just gone. And so now, what's working is like, a video where I put, I say hi and I talk about my product, is probably going to perform way better than like a $20,000 produced video by the New York, that I posted with the New York Times, in terms of actual engagement and traffic and like other things. And so, it's a crazy world now. You don't need any of old media stuff anymore, and if you have a phone and a laptop, you're so much more powerful. And so, yeah, the, I think that now, we keep calling these launches, and I think that that is what these are, these are mini launches all the time.

• 3:39Speaker 01

  But in my mind, I never consider it, I do consider it a launch, but not in the sense of like, this is a big launch, it's a big thing, it's not like we're launching a rocket, you know? It's funny, I rather call these demos instead of launches, and I just love shipping just demos constantly. Yep. And the more demos we can put out as a company, the better. At my company, I'm always like, well, what are we launching this week? That's more the question. And we work backwards always from the launch of whatever we're working on. So for example, I'll give you a small example. Yeah. If we have a feature we're working on, well, we talk about, sure, we talk about the feature, how it feels, etc., but then I ask, well, what's the copy on the Instagram caption? What's the first, what's the hook? If we make this a video about this? And not that like, it needs to have a good, it needs to go viral, but we should talk about it, because how we communicate to other people is just as important as what we're building.

• 4:22Speaker 01

  And so, I'm, it's at every part of the process, it's not like we make it, and then magically I make a hit video or something, that's never how it works. It's always like, we kind of know it's a hit before we even start like, working on it, because it just sounds good on paper. Yeah. And so I can show some examples of that.

• 4:35Speaker 00

  I think a lot of people see videos that you publish that go viral and get a ton of attention, and they almost think that it happens by accident, because you just seem, you know, so comfortable and natural and off the cuff, but that's not how you do it at all, because you're trying to figure out the hook before you even do the video. So maybe it'd be interesting if you could pull up a video, walk us through it, and then maybe walk us through the process of how you created that video, what goes into it before you've even actually started shooting anything?

• 5:01Speaker 01

  Totally, totally. My philosophy on a lot of the launch stuff now is just, how can we just show, like, almost like the process of what I'm doing versus show the ending of what I'm doing? I think there's a lot of value to being like, hey, I'm this founder person, and I just got this much money, and this is my product, and this, this is my fancy DSLR, and these are my good, my wonderfully edited video, you know? With me in front of a nice office, you know, but I'm sure we've all seen those. You see those every day, I saw like five today, for sure. And those have a purpose, but to me, that becoming like, the kind of like, thing that people are reaching towards is really annoying. And so, I try to always do the opposite and just do what I think is right. Because again, that's a one-time thing.

• 5:44Speaker 01

  You want, you want a channel, because why are we even launching, Aaron? Why are we launching? What's the reason?

• 5:49Speaker 00

  We're launching to get users.

• 5:50Speaker 01

  Exactly, we're not launching to like, get a bunch of clout on the internet and make people think that we're smart. We're trying to actually get people to use our thing, and that means having a channel that we can keep on repeating and find users from. And so, yeah, I'll show you one example here. This one's a perfect example, this is like the launch of Hey Clicky. So this is Clicky. Clicky is this little blue guy that follows your cursor on as you use your computer. And it's basically an AI teacher that can teach you anything. Honestly, I thought the demo was not that good. I remember I showed it to you in office hours, and you're like, oh, you should post this. Like, it's actually kind of cool. And I think one day, you asked me again about it, and I ended up saying, ah, okay, I'll find out, I'll post this. Because even for me, I've been doing this for years, like 10 plus years,

• 6:34Speaker 01

  and even I sometimes am like, oh, I don't want to post it, it's not good enough. But it was so wrong, that's so wrong of me for you to even think that. And so, I record this video in the office, five minutes before dinner, I post it, and after dinner, it's just doing numbers. And now, this is my company, isn't that, it's a crazy thing. Yeah. It was just a random side project that I then even just open sourced, because I thought no one would even care about it. And here I am, working on it six months later as a real company, right?

• 6:58Speaker 00

  Yeah, and so this was nearly 3 million views. How important was this video in actually even giving you the confidence that you should keep working on this?

• 7:05Speaker 01

  I do not care about the traffic at all. The views looks really wonderful, and people will say congratulations, but what are the actual numbers? And so, I actually don't care about this number at all, I was like, how many people downloaded it? And so after this video, I think 7,000 people downloaded it. And then I looked at who's like retained four days later. And if you ask me why I'm working on the product today, it's not because it went viral, it's because 7,000 people downloaded it, and about 100 people of those 7,000 kept on using it every day for five days straight. That got me so inspired. I reached out to those 100 people, I talked to each of them, and I was like, oh my God, people are using this for things I would have never imagined. And the users are what inspired me to keep going forward. Of course, there's so many little things I could talk about, things I'm doing just subconsciously at this point, maybe you could help me think through it?

• 7:49Speaker 01

  But even just the headline, just like, it's just casual, I built this thing. Yeah. It's an AI teacher. What does it do? Why is it important? Yeah. It's like, that's how my brain thinks, I've been writing for like a decade plus. Yeah. And so, to me, it sounds dumb to call it tweet poetry, but like, I care about how long things are. Yes. I care about the difference, the different parts of the story that I'm telling you.

• 8:12Speaker 00

  And I remember this even back to your BuildSpace days, when you would send your regular marketing emails to the community, I would get those, and that's how you wrote too.

• 8:20Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah.

• 8:21Speaker 00

  It didn't feel like the typical marketing email that somebody would expect to get. It felt like Farza was writing to me, even when, you know, it wasn't like you directly sitting down and doing anything, it felt like that.

• 8:34Speaker 01

  Totally. One thing I do a lot is, it depends on the platform, this is Twitter. I'll just kind of go, I don't know, some random person's tweet here, maybe like this one. And I'll literally change this text to my tweets text. And I'll just do this.

• 8:50Speaker 01

  I'll be like, did my eyes stop? I'll just ask myself, did I myself stop on what this is saying? And if I stop, that's like step one for me on testing if I myself would kind of check this out. And so that's kind of my number one rule, regardless of Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, anything. Am I gonna stop on this? Am I even gonna read the first sentence? Cause if I don't read the first sentence, there's no way I'm going into this. Also, like, look at the first frame of the video. It's very purposely X code. Why? Because I know that initially curious developers are probably getting interested by this. Not like actual video editors, right? So it's purposely X code. I purposely zoom in right here to this part to show, cause the part is so small. The part is like this little triangle that kind of helps you out. Most people, when they're scrolling, see the first three seconds. Hey, everyone.

• 9:35Speaker 01

  So this is. Zoom. And I go, what is that? You know, at least, at least while you're, while you're scrolling.

• 9:40Speaker 00

  And you're moving it around so people can see that there's something moving there.

• 9:43Speaker 01

  I think that you can go into details all day. But the reason I got this, I know this stuff now is because there's hundreds and thousands of videos I've made that nobody has cared about.

• 9:53Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 9:53Speaker 01

  I think that's the biggest thing, like, yeah, I don't want people to watch this video and think, oh, I gotta make this hook and do this and this.

• 9:58Speaker 00

  And so this was this first one off the cuff. This was almost entirely unplanned.

• 10:02Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 10:03Speaker 00

  And so a lot of this was just you and instinct and how you put this together based on things you've learned. Walk us through another video that, that maybe you planned out a little bit more in advance. Cause one thing that's surprising to me, you actually write a script for all of your videos. And I think anybody that's seen one of your videos would be surprised by that because you seem like you're just talking off the cuff. How do you do that? Like you're very prepared, but it doesn't seem formal and stuffy and like you're reading.

• 10:28Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 10:28Speaker 00

  How can you teach somebody else to do that?

• 10:30Speaker 01

  If I like reading it, then that means it'll probably sound good if I say it out loud as well. Not always, but sometimes. And so this is one example of a script I wrote for a video that I did yesterday. And again, it's just super simple, like, do I enjoy reading this? Like, would I read this if I just, someone texted this to me?

• 10:47Speaker 00

  Yeah, what's going through your head? Are you imagining the audience listening to this? Or how do you evaluate if something is actually good and interesting?

• 10:54Speaker 01

  For me, it's always, I'm the audience. Like, would I be interested in what, what the script is saying? And so honestly, this script is actually not that strong. But I still recorded the video, cause you gotta be launching. In the first kind of little bit, am I getting across what I'm doing? Why is it important? Like, you can get across so much in just 10 seconds. What you're doing, why it's important, let's get into it. You know, that's what the first 10 seconds of any kind of video should be about. Cause both these videos are one minute long, right? It's kind of like a movie, you know, a movie is an hour and a half, two hours. And the first 20 minutes is just a setup. It's a two hour thing. And so for a video that's one minute long, you need a setup, but it should only be like 10, 20%. So I write this down. And so this case I said, hi, I want to share a new demo of our new demo over new agent interface.

• 11:38Speaker 01

  We're talking to our users, blah, blah, blah. And then getting into the demo. And so for me, this is kind of, this is kind of how I think through it, you know, before I get in front of the camera. The worst part is when you're in front of the camera and you're like, oh, what am I saying? You know, like you have, you have nothing to ground yourself.

• 11:54Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 11:55Speaker 01

  It's good to ground yourself, yeah.

• 11:56Speaker 00

  You start with the script and then you move on to some of the visuals. How do you think about what that first shot should be? It's so important, right? It's the first thing people see when they're scrolling.

• 12:04Speaker 01

  I'll show you a quick example of one of our videos. So this video actually did really good on YouTube. This is like a brand new, fresh YouTube channel. Like, we literally made it and then posted this video three days later.

• 12:14Speaker 00

  Yep.

• 12:14Speaker 01

  And this is one of our highest converting videos, despite being 19,000 views. Yeah, this video, I think it did like 3 million views on Twitter, 20,000 on YouTube and like some crazy amount on Instagram as well. The same video. So it kind of did, we posted just everywhere just to see what happens. But yeah, I mean, the way I like to do my videos is who is the person making this thing? You know, like, just show yourself, show your face very clearly. This is you, this is your personality, just be proud of who you are. And confidently tell the camera what you're working on. Cause if you think it's cool, then I think you'll find at least, my thought is always at least one other person would think this is cool. And that's who I'm talking to. I'm talking to that, like, one other person in that world that may think this is cool.

• 12:56Speaker 01

  And so, yeah, I always start with a very clear, hi, this is what I'm working on. All you gotta do is press and hold F10 plus control, start talking. And whatever you're saying will stream in as text into whatever text box your cursor is on. For example, if I'm on Apple Notes, I can just say. Great, that's how it works. Can you give me an example? Hey, today I have to ship three things. First, skills, second, memory, and third, this bug that this one user gave about dictation. Okay, that's pretty cool, but ah, this is like every other product I've ever seen. There's nothing special about this. So that's pretty cool. And honestly, many products already do this exact thing today. But here's the thing, when I'm writing, I often don't really know what I even want to say. So check this out, we're shipping. So then like, I frame the problem for myself.

• 13:38Speaker 01

  I'm not saying everyone has this problem where they don't know what to write. I'm not involving everybody. I'm only talking about myself. And cause these are my problems, cause I'm always putting stuff for myself. Screen aware dictation. It's pretty cool. I've never seen anything like it before and I want to show you. Let's say I want to write. Again, that's just me being myself, which is like, hey, I want to show you.

• 13:57Speaker 00

  You come across very natural here. Was that easy for you to do?

• 14:01Speaker 01

  No, no. First of all, this whole video scripted. Every, every line that I'm saying, I wrote like three days before. And I said it, and I, I will say it in my head like over and over and over again, in the shower, going to work. And I'm always like, how should I say that line? And by the time I'm in front of the camera, I've already visualized it like 10 times. And it's so funny, after this video, we were finished it, I told Vikrant, the person who I make videos with. And I'm like, this is the worst video we've ever done. It's not even worth editing it. And he's like, no, bro, be quiet, shut up. I'm gonna make it and then we're gonna post it. And so again, it's good to have the team also be really like, hey, we made this, like, we're gonna put it out. It doesn't matter how cringe we think it is, like, we'll let the audience decide. This video did 3 million views on Twitter and people went crazy over it.

• 14:45Speaker 01

  And it's so funny, I thought it was horrible. I just thought like, this is so, this is so bad. So this is one of the situations where I was wrong. And I think founders, I mean, me especially, think something we made is bad, or I made is bad. And then I don't want to put it out, cause it's gonna make, I don't like how it sounds or feels. I'm constantly forcing myself to put it out. It's not natural for me to click post. But uh, sometimes it is, sometimes it's not.

• 15:08Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 15:08Speaker 01

  And so this is one example where I was like so surprised that people even cared to begin with. Cause I thought it was just a pretty simple thing.

• 15:15Speaker 00

  It's interesting, I, I've heard you talk about this almost like demo driven development where everything that you're working on, you're almost working backwards from a demo that you want at the end of it. And that's kind of the proof that the thing is ready to go. It lets you test it out. And then you get to the end of it and you're like, let's just publish the demo.

• 15:31Speaker 01

  The most important thing at my company that I try to always, and every company I've ever run, is you know that feeling when you're working with someone, often on the team or a co-founder? And you're like, oh, check this out. That, you have to be so aware of that, cause that is the thing that you could probably talk about online. That check this out is exactly like that raw check this out is exactly how you should be kind of presenting yourself on the internet. In this case, you know, sometimes I go a little bit more fancy if I want to. But sometimes I'm also just a guy in a simple video in the YC office. And then sometimes, maybe once a quarter, we'll do a polished launch where it's like, this is like something I'm really proud of. I want to make sure it's talked about properly. But generally, we're launching like demos every single day almost.

• 16:12Speaker 00

  It's interesting, now that everybody can put out videos and do launches every single day. How do you stand out in that world? It seems like people that are spending lots of money and trying to do fancy produced videos. That's an effort to try to get more attention and stand out and, and seem, you know, polished and further along than you are. But you take the opposite approach. And so in a world where there's just so much content and so many videos that are out there every single day. How do you think about how you try to stand out and how others can too?

• 16:43Speaker 01

  I never think about it like that. I always just think about like, I'm, I, I want to talk about something. I think it's interesting and there's gotta be one other person out there that's, that thinks it's interesting. And when I click post, in my brain, I'm always, I'm always like, if this gets zero attention, zero views, I'm still happy I posted it. You know, cause I'm glad I got something out there. I think that should be the mentality everybody has, uh, working on their company, launching in 2026. Like, you can't be thinking about it. By the time I hit post, I've already forgotten it. I'm looking at it maybe a week later to see how I did.

• 17:14Speaker 00

  How do you do that? I feel like most people, when they post something, they're, you know, incessantly just refreshing and trying to see other people liking it, who liked it? But you launch and you walk away.

• 17:24Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 17:24Speaker 00

  How did you get to that point?

• 17:25Speaker 01

  I mean, you just put so much garbage out there. I put so much garbage out in the world at this point, not like bad stuff, but just like stuff that I wasn't like this. I didn't think, that I didn't think was good.

• 17:33Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 17:33Speaker 01

  And people forget the next day. I can make something right now and post it and people are gonna forget the next day. That's just how attention in 2026 kind of works, you know? And so this is like a perfect example. This is 2021, it's a year after YC.

• 17:47Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 17:48Speaker 01

  I'm like, I'm a solo founder. I've been a solo founder at Zip School and a solo founder, Bill's space, solo founder now. It's not like I'm that, yes, I know how to put a camera in front of me and edit it, but I'm not a fantastic editor. And so this is back when I was working on Zip School, which is an online elementary school. And I wanted to show off the new classes that we were launching for our users. And this is the launch video. Hey there Zip Schoolers. Farzad from Zip School here again to show off. Four new classes that we just added yesterday to Zip School that we are very excited about. The first one is called Mars Perseverance Rover Landing, aimed at kids eight to seven to twelve. And this class covers the Mars landing that actually. Honestly, it's not, I'm already checked out watching this video and.

• 18:24Speaker 00

  What would you do differently? What are the mistakes that you're making in this video?

• 18:27Speaker 01

  I think that's the important part. It's not about that. It's about the fact that I posted it. And then it got twenty-three likes, which by the way, is more than zero.

• 18:35Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 18:35Speaker 01

  It got more than zero views. It got more than zero comments. It got one comment from a guy.

• 18:41Speaker 00

  You got a bookmark.

• 18:41Speaker 01

  I got a bookmark. So like, I launched. This to me is a launch. And I know that sounds dumb to maybe some, but to me, this is exactly what launching means. We did something new at the company. We talk about it to the, into the world. And it doesn't matter if we got twenty-three views. If there's a chance that we get more than one view, we should talk about it. And so this is a super small thing. This is like an everyday thing at my company where we, we have, because we had new classes dropping every day almost. And so I just make it, I'd be like, yeah, let's talk about it. Maybe one day, uh, I'll talk about it and one of the classes will be really interesting and get picked up and go super viral. Which never happened, but the fact is I made the videos and over time I, I got so much better at just knowing like, how should I talk about products?

• 19:23Speaker 01

  Cause think about it, I'm good at making videos in general and writing stories, but talking about products is hard. How do you come off without sounding shilly? How do you come off without sounding fool yourself? And it's hard. This is funny. This is a launch. This was the first day I worked in my company, December first, twenty twenty, and I shipped a landing page. Aaron, there is no copy. There's just a link and there is some weird video I made in Canva and I posted it. And that's a launch. To me, I launched a landing page, right? In my eyes. And by the way, in this sense, I had like maybe eighty followers or something. So no one was watching what I was doing. And this just continued. What is this? Nice four years. Uh, I'm pretty excited for the next four years or the USA for Zip School for the world. It's gonna be great.

• 20:10Speaker 01

  And so again, I've just been posting these for just years. And so over time you, you build up, you know, it's like, it's like basketball. You just keep on, keep on going. Like, oh man, this was getting closer. And you internally are a smart, are a human being, you're smart and you'll slowly get better. But if you don't take a thousand shots, you're not going to make the, the, the, the five thousandth shot, you know?

• 20:30Speaker 00

  Clearly your advice is just put it out there. Don't worry about it. Just put it out there. You need to get the reps. What are the things that you've learned in the five years since then?

• 20:40Speaker 01

  So much.

• 20:40Speaker 00

  The tips that you could give people now in order to improve their videos and start from a better starting point than you did when you were first doing this.

• 20:48Speaker 01

  Totally. I want to be really clear. All my videos are like, look very produced, uh, but that's because it comes very naturally to me. To make a produced video for me will take like an hour, um, but for other people may take longer. So while I'm showing this, like I want to be clear, like, you don't have to produce your videos. It could just be an iPhone video and just do really well. So this is one of those videos where I just knew, even when I, when I, when I wrote the script, that it was going to go big. Uh, it has now twenty-one million views on Instagram. And believe it or not, this one video is still driving a lot of our traffic. So that's how these algorithms work. Like they'll keep serving the content to people, uh, to more people that want to see it. Also, I've made this video an ad now. So I'm running Facebook ads now on a video. So yeah, there's a lot of benefit to making videos of your company. Last week I went super viral for an idea that I built that I thought was actually kind of terrible.

• 21:32Speaker 01

  And this week I'm somehow in Y Combinator. Let me show you. Okay. So just that hook.

• 21:36Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 21:37Speaker 01

  Like what, what did I say? Um, last week I went super viral for something I built that I thought was kind of ridiculous or whatever, bad. Cool. Like that's interesting. And now he's in this thing called Y Combinator. I've heard of Y Combinator. So I was kind of targeting that niche. And then a very simple, let me show you what I'm working on. I, it's, my formula is always the same.

• 21:55Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 21:55Speaker 01

  This is who I am. This is what's going on. This is what I'm working on. Let me show you. Show you what I'm building. It's called Clicky. It's a little AI buddy that lives next to your computer cursor and teaches you anything in real time for free. Let's say I'm learning how to color grade in DaVinci Resolve. Instead of going to a YouTube video, I just got to ask out loud and Clicky will literally tell me exactly how to get there and even point at it for me. So again, a little, pretty produced, but again, this, this took us like four to six hours to make because we've just done this. But again, even if this was a simple video where I'm like, hi, this is what I'm working on. Check this out. And then I turn the camera to literally show my computer. I think the effect may not have been as big, but again, you just start. And you make like ten of those then. You get really good at talking about stuff. But again, like that video, super clear hook.

• 22:39Speaker 01

  A very clear like why you should, why you should care right now, while you're on your scroll. And so a big thing that I always do when I watch videos, uh, on the internet, regardless if they're mine or not, is I ask myself, am I bouncing? When am I bouncing? And so if I go to Instagram reels anytime, and this is what I do a lot, actually. I watch a lot of content, not for entertainment, just to kind of study. And so I can go to Instagram reels.

• 23:01Speaker 03

  Page to block my long distance girlfriend and post my weight loss journey.

• 23:05Speaker 01

  First of all, this is a random video we just stumbled upon, right? There is so much to learn. Dark background, light on his face, kind of a cool little, uh, caption at the bottom where it starts with two months ago. You kind of want to know two months ago, what? And you're just curious.

• 23:19Speaker 00

  Right.

• 23:19Speaker 01

  And so I'll mentally take that as a note and be like, oh, cool. Like maybe we can make a video that uses this as like a template. Maybe it's like two months ago, I was working on something and I didn't really know what it was and then tell the story.

• 23:30Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 23:31Speaker 01

  And so again, I'll just keep doing this. I'll keep like.

• 23:34Speaker 04

  Okay. So this song just hit two million streams.

• 23:38Speaker 04

  You wanted to know where I've been.

• 23:41Speaker 04

  Welcome back to features we should have released six months ago, but we're unreleasing them now.

• 23:45Speaker 01

  This is cool. This is what startups should be doing.

• 23:47Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 23:47Speaker 01

  Yeah. So I'm seeing a lot of this now, but mostly like younger founders, which is cool.

• 23:50Speaker 00

  There's almost something, um, like self-deprecating about it. You know, yours is like, ah, I had this thing that I thought was terrible. And they're, ah, this is the stuff we should have launched six months ago. And this guy's like, ah, broke up with my ex-girlfriend.

• 24:04Speaker 01

  Everyone wants a story. And so how can a demo just be a mini story or what you're saying be a mini story?

• 24:09Speaker 00

  Yeah. And you, I've heard you talk about this where it, it's not actually you in the video. It's the character Farza. And, and it's almost like all these people, they're a character that the audience can identify with and, uh, ultimately root for potentially.

• 24:22Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah. I mean, I think that like, when a founder talks to the camera, like you come off as a certain type of way. And so, um, totally. Sometimes I'm like, yeah, like I am not playing a character, but like I'm a character to the people.

• 24:33Speaker 00

  Right.

• 24:33Speaker 01

  Like when someone watches me on their little TikTok feed or their Twitter feed, like I'm just like random character in their eyes. I'm not like a real, I'm a person, but I'm kind of a character. I'll show you guys this too, which is just something we've been doing that our users have been loving. Uh, it's not going viral, but our users have been loving it. And there's just these little, actually some of them have been going viral, which is pretty cool. This is everything we built this week.

• 24:56Speaker 05

  So Clicky had been, uh, had some problems about like the integration and orchestration of the agents. Now Clicky has a new brain. And it will feel way more smooth to spawn the agents, to control them, to pause them. And you're gonna see a lot of improvements overall. Lot of people complaining about like Clicky is keep following, uh, them. So I made a fix for them.

• 25:15Speaker 01

  So there's no, there's no hook. There's no attention. There's no story. It's just, we're a group of people and we want to tell you what we're doing. This almost has a million views on Instagram.

• 25:25Speaker 00

  Why do you think these are so popular?

• 25:27Speaker 01

  I think that this is the most important thing I think about, like companies making content. What we are doing on a day-to-day basis at our companies is so far-fetched from what most people think is actually happening at a company. And, uh, to just give them an inside look of what's actually going on in your process is so cool. And it gets them excited. It gets them interested in what you're doing. What I'm so against and so anti is talking about my life as a founder on the internet. You'll never catch me making those videos about this is a, this is my day as a YC founder. Never. Uh, like I'm not trying to like tell you about my life and tell you about like my, my, that stuff. I'm trying to show you like what I'm doing and why, uh, in new ways.

• 26:11Speaker 01

  And I think that, um, most companies just never show their process. For most companies, uh, big companies, Apple, Meta, you just see Mark Zuckerberg on the stage and he's showing you his Meta glasses. But a lot of people, especially early adopters of, of products that, uh, you know, that I'm sure many YC founders are working on, uh, are interested in just like, what is this random group of four guys and girls that are making this AI product and how are they doing it? And just telling, we make these videos in 10 minutes. And it's just, hey, just get up. What are you doing today? And yeah, it's interesting. Um, it's funny. When we started making these, we just made them just to stay accountable. Uh, cause it was, uh, it was good to kind of tell the people, well, it's kind of like stand up.

• 26:50Speaker 00

  Right.

• 26:50Speaker 01

  But in front of the world.

• 26:51Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 26:52Speaker 01

  And so, uh, that was kind of the idea. And I mean, now we, now we do these every two weeks and it's been really fun.

• 26:56Speaker 00

  Yeah, that's really cool. Um, I, I think another thing that comes across here is not even just the words that you're saying, but like the joy that is in the videos. And I think, um, people see that in your personality and I think they see that in the music that you choose. And everybody's kind of like clapping and supporting each other as they're giving their update. And it's just like positive vibes are coming through the video. And how do you capture that?

• 27:20Speaker 01

  See, this is so weird because this is where you just have to be yourself. I keep saying that. People always say, how do I start making videos about my company or videos about what I'm working on or have some presence? And it's always the same feedback. Make, take out your iPhone, click record, go, go, go, uh, selfie mode. And talk about what you're doing for 30 seconds and post that to your Instagram, post that to your TikTok and then post it to Reddit, Instagram or Reddit and YouTube or wherever. And you know how many people take me up on that? Almost like maybe one percent, two percent of the time, people will actually do it. Why though? If I told you right now, I mean, maybe you're different. I don't, I don't, you're probably different. You're, you're Aaron Epstein. Uh, but if you, if I tell you to point your phone and record a video, uh, how does that make you feel? And then post it to your personal Instagram.

• 28:01Speaker 00

  Oh yeah. You get nervous about it. Like, what am I gonna say?

• 28:04Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 28:05Speaker 00

  How am I gonna look? What if people think it's stupid?

• 28:07Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 28:07Speaker 00

  And all these thoughts I think go through people's heads and they're, they're afraid of.

• 28:11Speaker 01

  My high school friend follows me. He doesn't care about this, what I'm working on. Like nobody cares. But see, that's the thing. Like there's so much value to. You gotta be cringe for a little while, actually, to learn how to not be cringe. And so a lot of people will like post their first video and be like, this is horrible. I'm not even posting this. But then I think the important part is to continue doing it. And so again, every day as a founder, founders watching on YouTube at Y C, you're spending eight hours on your laptop, making magic, smiling, seeing things that you find are interesting. If you just spend even 10 minutes to step back and ask yourself, what's something I did today that made me smile or was interesting or felt new? And just talk about it and then show it and then click post and then close it, back to work.

• 28:56Speaker 01

  That's all you have to do. That's what it means to be launching, I think, in 2026, just to show your work. Cause that is what launching is, right? When you launch on TechCrunch or New York Times, like you're showing your work. But in 2026, you show your, you can show your work every day. And you actually get an audience just by showing your work every day.

• 29:11Speaker 00

  A lot of people think, well, I'm not targeting Gen Z or whoever stereotypically TikTok users, Instagram users. Therefore, I should not use that as a channel to try to acquire my business customers or I sell to procurement or whatever. But it sounds like your argument is like, that's not true. There's all kinds of people using these platforms that are real humans that happen to work at companies where they could be your customer and be interested in seeing your product, right?

• 29:37Speaker 01

  Yes, everybody in the world is on, not everybody in the world, but a large majority of the world is browsing through these platforms.

• 29:45Speaker 00

  Billions.

• 29:46Speaker 01

  Yes, we found that design agencies really loved our product, like three of them that found us naturally. So the question became, how do we get more design agencies? Now, well, I'm curious, what would you do if you take yourself back like to founder mode Aaron?

• 30:01Speaker 00

  Oh, I don't know. Probably the default for a lot of people is like, go look on LinkedIn and you know, try to find people that list the place they work as a design agency or go to communities that they hang out in or like specialized design websites or something.

• 30:14Speaker 01

  And those are all actually really good. You should do those things. But at the same time, do you think a design agency founders on TikTok or Instagram or YouTube? Do you think they're on these platforms? The answer is probably yes. It's probably a lot of them. And so we started making TikToks, I remember, I don't have the account pulled up here, that was just targeting agents, design agencies. I would literally say, hey, are you a design agency? Or, or, hey, are you the founder of a design agency? Stop right there. Let me show you something really cool. And then that's how we found like 50 design agency leads, uh, just through TikTok. And these videos didn't go viral. They each on average had like 4,000 views.

• 30:49Speaker 00

  But it was probably 4,000 targeted.

• 30:50Speaker 01

  4,000 targeted views. So the goal of my goal is never to go viral. It's just, I want to talk about what I'm working on and I want to make sure it's listened to by an audience that uh, would be interested, actually interested in what I'm doing.

• 31:02Speaker 00

  How do you think about the different channels?

• 31:04Speaker 01

  Every channel is different. I'll say off the bat, Twitter is our worst, is in historical, I've, I've been making stuff on Twitter for like 10 years. The worst conversion of any channel, like this video, uh, the original Clicky video, got 7,000 downloads on 3 million views. If you do the math there, it's like less than 1% or some crazy low number.

• 31:22Speaker 00

  Much less, yeah.

• 31:23Speaker 01

  It's very low. Screen aware dictation, this video, right? 2.9 million views on Twitter, but the conversion rate onto those people actually making accounts was horrendously low. This YouTube video has 20,000 views. But do you know what the conversion rate on this video is? It's like 20% to them actually downloading the app. So the chances of you watching this video and downloading my app was 20%.

• 31:44Speaker 00

  Do you think that's something specific to the channel or is it something?

• 31:47Speaker 01

  Yeah, I know. Every channel is different. Think about it, I'm on Twitter, I'm just like doom scrolling, basically, not really doom scrolling. I'm just scrolling through random stuff all the time. And so for YouTube, um, I, I, it was so surprising. And so historically, actually YouTube is for most companies, the best performing channel in terms of conversion. But look, our numbers are very low, 872 subscribers, 20K views, like I'm not Mr. Beast, you know? But again, if you do the math, this leads to a very real number of signups and this video will keep on performing. That's the most important part. This YouTube is a library that will last for decades. Twitter, you got your moment once and you're gone. Instagram is another one, that's so important. All of our traffic, I think 70% of our traffic is Instagram. This is where you gotta be smart. You're like, I'm not trying to go viral.

• 32:31Speaker 01

  I'm trying to make, tell people what I'm doing, but I'm again, like down the funnel, how many people actually converted? It's worth checking out. And so that's why I, I think people should always make their video and then start, make the first couple of videos, but then start to ask themselves, hmm, maybe I should make my, for example, our link in bio is slash I G. Why? Cause then I can track, like, wait a second, what was the conversion rate of people who hit slash I G and downloaded my app? Or uh, if it landed on their phone, um, sent it to, to, we have a little button that lets them send it to them, uh, themselves over email. How many of them clicked that was the conversion rate? And so by posting on all these channels, you start to see not only where I'm performing views wise, but actually just like, who's, where is my best uh, channel right now in terms of the audience that I'm looking for?

• 33:16Speaker 01

  And again, for us, it is by far Instagram, um, and it's, it's not even close.

• 33:21Speaker 00

  And you're basically using the same content for every channel.

• 33:24Speaker 01

  Yes, I uh, I do make videos for specific platforms. So most of our videos we make for Instagram, but then we post to Twitter. Where are some videos we make for Twitter and then post to Instagram?

• 33:34Speaker 00

  What is the difference between one that targets one versus the other?

• 33:37Speaker 01

  So simple. I mean, Twitter generally doesn't like vertical videos. It likes 16, nine.

• 33:41Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 33:42Speaker 01

  So then this, for example, we had this drawing video. So we built a system that can draw directly on your screen. It can draw polygons, arrows. This is super optimized for Twitter, cause just look, let's, let's just watch it muted and imagine I'm scrolling my feed. Ready?

• 33:56Speaker 01

  Okay, guy in front of a blackboard, A I draw screen, I'll watch. It's like, it's that quick. It's like A I draw screen, blackboard, he's drawing things, plot opus, demo, click. You know, like my brain thinks like that. What are the quick, cause nobody's reading this entire, this entire damn thing. And so this is optimized for Twitter. This video is optimized for Twitter. But what was surprising is we posted the exact same thing to uh, my Instagram and it performed even better. And you would think that like, this type of video wouldn't perform that good, but it has like millions of views. And it's a vertical video, cause on their phone, it looks even worse. It looks like this.

• 34:33Speaker 00

  Well, one thing that I, maybe a couple of things that I know about you are you have a very high bar for yourself and the things that you put out there. And while at the same time, almost ironically, you're very comfortable putting a lot of things out there.

• 34:46Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 34:46Speaker 00

  Um, and so you, I hate to use the word taste, but like you've been doing this so long that you have a high bar and a good sense of, of what you would be excited to watch. And you just naturally have a very uh, short attention span. You get bored and you like want the next thing. And if you're not getting that, then you move on. And I think that serves you very well with uh, the videos that you're creating here.

• 35:09Speaker 01

  Yeah, either I have good taste or I just put out so much stuff and some of them just hit.

• 35:13Speaker 00

  That's how you get it, I think, is you, you put it out, you put out a lot of things and you continue to improve and that, that levels up your work.

• 35:20Speaker 01

  Totally, I, I think I have more of the latter where I just put out so much stuff and some of it, some of it works. And again, we're looking at the stuff that's working, but so much hasn't worked.

• 35:27Speaker 00

  Right.

• 35:27Speaker 01

  Like my old zip school videos, like nobody cared.

• 35:29Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 35:30Speaker 01

  But this is, this is a perfect example. This was a super simple video. Basically, just a quick story here. I found out that with G P T real time, you could generate shell commands and control your computer in real time. And so we can watch it real quick. All right, check this out. No hands, ready? Hey, Cookie, can you please open up Spotify and play A C D C for me? Maybe uh, Back in Black, I love that song.

• 35:54Speaker 06

  Rock on, it's playing Back in Black now.

• 35:56Speaker 01

  Amazing, amazing. Cookie, hey Cookie, it's a little bit loud. Could you turn it down in Spotify 50%? This is so loud.

• 36:02Speaker 06

  Got it, lowering Spotify to 50% so it's less intense.

• 36:06Speaker 01

  Okay, thank you. Hey Cookie, can you open up my? So now I'm going to keep going and this is actually a fun one. Stripe dashboard for me, my browser, let's see if we made any money today.

• 36:16Speaker 06

  Opening your Stripe dashboard now.

• 36:19Speaker 01

  Oh man, a hundred forty dollars in a day is not. And so to me, that was just one little moment in the day where I was like, oh my God, this A I model could do this. I didn't check if anybody did it before. I was just like, I'm gonna make a video. Turns out I did something very novel. And um, again, the examples I used, playing a song on Spotify, uh, and lowering, and lowering the volume, that's exactly the first use case that I had as a user myself.

• 36:43Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 36:44Speaker 01

  And so again, always building for like the version of myself that's kind of watching out there. Cause if I think that's cool, I think someone else would too. And hey, look, 3.8 million views on Twitter, really good. But again, then Instagram, 4.6 million. You know, people always say like, you gotta be super like, your brain has to be rotten when you're scrolling Instagram and you gotta have a lot of quick edits and blah, blah, blah. Like there's not a single cut in this video.

• 37:06Speaker 00

  Yeah, there's no cuts in the video, but there are beats in the video.

• 37:10Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 37:11Speaker 00

  That you do a very good job with, you know? We see you first, you say, hey, no hands. So right off the bat, I'm like, oh, no hands. He's just talking to this thing.

• 37:19Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 37:20Speaker 00

  Which is the hook that I think gets people.

• 37:22Speaker 01

  Oh, of course, that's all purposeful.

• 37:23Speaker 00

  Yeah, then you play the song, then you lower the music so that you can continue to talk over it and it responds to that as well. Then you pull up the Stripe, Stripe dashboard and somebody goes, I wonder how much money they made today.

• 37:33Speaker 01

  There's always, there's, yeah, I'm always just trying to keep the story moving.

• 37:36Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 37:36Speaker 01

  I'm not trying to keep your attention. That's actually the wrong way to look at it. I'm always trying to, I'm always like, all right, where is this going? Come on, you know, you're like, come on, keep going. When you hear someone talking like, let's get to the end of the story, okay? You went to the movies and, and so you just keep doing that endlessly. And so um, I love that you said the word beats. Some of my videos are purposely made to just kind of like appeal to like the audience that just has no attention span. You know, for example, like this one. It has been nine weeks since I built and launched my idea. It's an A I that can draw directly on your screen and guide you through any. So that's one example of like a quick, very quick. I'll show you this example here, which is um, talking about the beats just for once. Two weeks ago, I was in my apartment trying to figure out a cool idea to work on.

• 38:20Speaker 01

  Two weeks later, I built this thing that's now being used by thousands of people every single day. And the crazy part is. So again, I literally think about it like, like, like this.

• 38:30Speaker 01

  Am I here?

• 38:31Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 38:31Speaker 01

  Am I still watching? I think as you make these videos again and again, it becomes a lot more obvious to you as you do it. We have this one guy at our office right now. He is 19 and he has this built into his head, the same, the same beat system. And it's funny, like, most people who work on videos a lot have this little beat system in their head.

• 38:48Speaker 00

  I think another thing that's unique is you actually invest a lot in your early team, which is small, but a large portion of it is actually built to help you create and produce and get these videos out the door on a regular basis.

• 39:00Speaker 01

  Yeah, I mean, I always say like, I'm okay at videos. There are people out there who, who are way better at me. My first two hires were, I knew from the beginning, even before I started my company. It's gonna be number one, a filmmaker, and number two, an engineer. And it's number one is filmmaker for me. That is the first one. Or whatever, whatever order they can come in.

• 39:22Speaker 00

  Why was that so important to you?

• 39:23Speaker 01

  I don't wanna put a ton of attention every day on making videos. I mean, any founder watching, any founder in YC, nobody wants to do that every day. At some, at some level, you do have to in the beginning, in the early days.

• 39:33Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 39:33Speaker 01

  And yeah, I mean, look at my Clicky videos. Like, I'm forcing myself to just make videos and make stuff every day. At one point, you're like, well, this would be really great if someone's full-time job in my company was to kind of observe what we were doing and help us launch and constantly make it their, their mission to make us look good when we launch as well and make us come off properly. And so that's why a filmmaker was one of the first hires I made at this company. And my last company, our film team was two people. We were only like a seven-person team.

• 40:00Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 40:00Speaker 01

  So even at this company, at one point, hey, Clicky, we had three people making videos and one engineer. Cause it's so funny, now, it's so easy to pump out more code and more software, but it's harder than ever to actually talk about what you are doing in a coherent way in front of an audience. Cause now, Aaron, you know, someone can clone my product in like two minutes at this point. But again, what they, what's really hard to clone is the audience and the community that I built around what I'm doing and the energy around it. If you had an audience around your company, I'll say 100,000 people that was really into what you were doing, maybe enterprise AI, you know, maybe something around like photography or whatever, whatever your niche is, that'd be useful. Cause, cause that's why, you know, I can make a video now

• 40:43Speaker 01

  about a new feature and like thousands of people flood my app. That's awesome. That's like every founder's dream, right?

• 40:49Speaker 00

  Tell us more about the gear that you're using today to, to produce these videos.

• 40:52Speaker 01

  Yeah, so for demos on my computer, which is just like what I'm hacking on that day, I always use this thing called Screen Studio. I think it's like made by some indie hacker. And it's just really good. It's a record your screen, record your local audio, makes your cursor look good. And I think it costs like 30 bucks. That's like one level. Then the next level is like, well, videos that more include me in a more kind of like, kind of native way. And for that, I just pull up my iPhone, literally just a selfie camera and just record myself talking, post or edit on my phone even. I use a, on my phone, Instagram's editing too. It's called edits a lot. So when I, I do edit on my phone a good amount. So that's the iPhone. Nothing else required. But then there's like the next level where it's like, you feel like you wanna do something a little bit more kind of like thought through, cinematic.

• 41:37Speaker 01

  And that's where I use my Sony FX3 and Sony FX30 or Sony FX3, the cheaper one, along with a DJI mic. It's actually funny, the most important, this is actually so important, I can't believe I missed this. The most important thing in any video you make, doesn't matter if it's a shitty loom or a shitty like little video or your iPhone, is audio quality. If your audio is bad, I'm bouncing. I've watched some demos that are like 720p and just like the guy's in like a weird room in a basement, but his audio is crisp. And what he's working on is actually genuinely interesting. So I stick around. And so I don't care about the, the rest of it. I don't care what he looks like, anything. Like, I can hear him and I can see what he's doing. That's it.

• 42:18Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 42:18Speaker 01

  And so I think if every founder could just invest in one of those super cheap DJI mics, find them used online or just any mic that's not your MacBook mic, your, or your AirPod mics, those don't count.

• 42:30Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 42:31Speaker 01

  That would be really good. And then for editing on my actual laptop, I use DaVinci. Yeah. And maybe the most important part of my stack, he's not here right now, but Vikrant. Vikrant has made all the Hey Clicky videos. And without that guy making me look good and making us look good, none of this would happen. And so I don't wanna sit here and be like, I made all these videos and did all this stuff. Every video we just looked at, apart from the, the bad Zip School ones, which were made by me, are made by Vikrant. And so having a person that is actually talented at filmmaking, storytelling, writing next to you is like the biggest bonus a founder could have today. So a big part of how I work with Vikrant, who's the person who helps me with all these videos, is we just brainstorm. We're like, hey, we made this feature. What should, how should we make the video now? What are we thinking?

• 43:16Speaker 01

  Where should we do it? And so Vikrant is actually the main guy that's like, hmm, I had this shot idea or hmm, I had this hook idea or hey, I have this other idea. And often I'm the guy that's bringing the script and the song and the vibe that I'm going for. Cause as the founder, I think you'll slowly find what are the things that you're good at in video making. There's some aspect to it. So for me, I find I'm really good at writing and I'm really good at the music. And then Vikrant is good at literally everything else, from shooting to picking the set to editing after to, you know, all the little motion graphics he does, just so talented. And then as the founder, me as Farza, I can go back to focusing on growth, hiring, making a product. I don't wanna spend all my time making videos, you know?

• 44:01Speaker 01

  I don't think any founder watching this wants to do that. And, and look, I think a lot of these, a lot of people watching probably can't afford to hire a filmmaker or like an actual person on their team. They're maybe just solo with a co-founder. And what I'll say is, hey, go back to my old Zip School videos, go back to, just scroll through any of my social media and look at all my old shitty videos and just start somewhere. That's the most important thing about making launch videos and launching today is you gotta start. And the more you keep doing it every day, the more natural it becomes and slowly, hopefully more people check out your product. Hopefully you can then hire someone that does it even better than you. So for example, I'm not the engineer at my company anymore. I'm not the core engineer. I have someone that's a lot better than me.

• 44:41Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 44:41Speaker 01

  And same with filmmaking, same with design, same with every aspect of my company. But the early days, as a founder, doing everything.

• 44:47Speaker 00

  You gotta do it all.

• 44:48Speaker 01

  You're doing taxes, you're doing design, you're doing filmmaking. And so you gotta do everything. You can't be a little baby about it. You gotta take out your camera and start posting some cringe stuff. Cause in order to not be cringe, you must first be cringe. So, yeah. And then, yeah, for all of my writing, I always use this thing called Free Write. It's free to download, freewrite.io. It's my app. I built it actually just for this purpose. Yeah, free, open source, you can check it out. Maybe this is one thing I should, I didn't mention at all before is writing is so important. So spend as much time possible before the video, writing it. So before you get in front of the camera and maybe record it, if you've never made a video, don't worry about this. But if you're like on your 15th, 20th, 30th video, try writing, try writing for just 10 minutes about what, what it should be and then record it. You'll find that the more you think through it

• 45:33Speaker 01

  before you get to the video, the better it can possibly get. Cause then you can catch a bad idea before it gets here.

• 45:39Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 45:39Speaker 01

  And that's it. That's, that's, that's my stack.

• 45:41Speaker 00

  I think you, you have a challenge for everybody who's watching for something they can do today to get started, right?

• 45:46Speaker 01

  My challenge to everyone watching this is, if you've never really made videos or if you have never really talked about your work online, but you've been hacking, you've been tinkering, you've been working on something, super simple, every day, just spend 10 minutes, take your phone out, iPhone or Android, it's okay. And then just record yourself talking about what you were doing, what you did that day. And then post it to your social media of choice, Instagram, TikTok. You know what? Make it, make a new Instagram account. So your, your existing followers don't even know. You do, just post it somewhere and do that for 30 days straight. And I promise you, within those 30 days, one of those videos will surpass probably a thousand views. And then you can look back and ask yourself, hmm, that one did a thousand views.

• 46:31Speaker 01

  Maybe the next one, and you can learn from that and you can make the next one based off the one that got a thousand views. And you can slowly get better and better and better. That's the challenge, yeah. 30 days straight, every day, one video. Send it to me. I'll be, I'll be, I'll be one of your likes. If you're doing this challenge, yeah, go for it.

• 46:47Speaker 00

  And it's never been easier to do this, right? To get that message out.

• 46:50Speaker 01

  It's never been easier. It's never been easier.

• 46:52Speaker 00

  Farza, thank you so much for being here. It's incredible advice.

• 46:55Speaker 01

  Thanks, Simon.
