Episode 10: Someone Tried to Sell Me 1,000 Followers for $29. I Was Already Priced.

Two days before I recorded Episode 09, someone tried to sell me a thousand fake Instagram followers for twenty-nine dollars.The email had my brand name, my handle, and the line that made me stop: "Now you have 24 followers. Maybe you are interested."I almost deleted it. I sat with it instead, and Episode 10 is what came out of that.I walk through the math of fake follower pricing, why my account is exactly the target market, what the offer would have cost me, and the truth I didn't put in Episode 09: there is no neutral position. The grift was already on me. Before I sat down to talk about building a personal brand slowly and honestly, the shortcut had been priced and someone had decided I might buy.I'm keeping my 26. I will earn the 27.Make It Inevitable is a podcast about closing the gap between who you are and who you are becoming. New episodes [email protected]
