The Psychology of Content Driving the Algorithms on Social Media

from The New Generation Entrepreneur Podcast · host Brandon Lucero

Ever thought your Instagram or TikTok feed is secretly coaching you? I did when I dug into why our parenting brand posts were blowing up and realized the algorithm had mapped my every desire, belief, and blind spot. I saw content on healthy relationships, mountain biking, quantum physics, even how to handle judgment after divorce, all because I'd shown interest. Social platforms build a psychological profile on YOU, and they're feeding you exactly what keeps you hooked. Today on the podcast we flip the script: instead of wondering why you're seeing this stuff, learn how to make social media work for your own content breakout. Listen in and discover: • Why every video in your feed already went viral and how to use that pattern  • The four content buckets (personal interest, beliefs, validation, problems) driving algorithm boosts  • How to uncover hidden problems you didn't know you had  • The story-based hooks that turn teachings into relatable, scroll-stopping moments  • A simple process to mine your feed for your next killer idea  Ready to hack your next viral hit? Tune in now and take control of your content destiny. Find me on: IG: @iambrandonlucero Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IAmBrandonLucero  Website: https://www.brandonlucero.com
