13138: CNN Just Helped Me Figure Out My Identity

Raw transcript:

do you ever hear something on the radio
or see something on television or watch
a video on the internet go whoa that’s
me yeah
there’s talking well that happened to me
the other day
CNN ran a story on this new breed of
online
person called a d influencer
and I started screaming like that what’s
a d influencer well let’s talk about
that in this episode of the vo Heroes
podcast
[Music]
look I am the the last person on Earth
you want to tell don’t order things from
Amazon don’t be influenced by the stuff
you see on Instagram and Facebook and
and Tick Tock and whatnot I’m re it’s
really easy for me to hit buy it’s
really easy for me to go yeah I do need
that shorter length of a USB cable so
that my stuff looks neater which I just
bought so just understand I’m into
consumption I’m a consumer I’m a
capitalist you know promoter right but
there’s this thing
that there’s this thing about me that I
kind of knew about but didn’t have words
for
and when I saw this story about the
influencers I said oh oh oh yes that’s
me I am a consumer for sure but I am not
a consumer that likes to waste money and
I also want to save my followers and my
clients and my students and my friends
and family I want to save them the
heartache of making mistakes
when they spend way too much money on
the wrong products or start down a path
to learn a skill that won’t serve them
as well as another path that’s why I
recommend the mic that I recommend it’s
why I try my best to help my audiobook
clients reduce the amount of time it
takes them per finished hour to do an
audio book with processes and procedures
and and ways to do things that can serve
both their time and their money
and I talk about it online in these
videos I’m a d influencer this is so
cool okay so and when when Karen Eileen
Gordon gets a hold of this coach Karen
on our team when she gets a hold of this
video to make a reel for me so I can
promote it I’m gonna be a d influencer
talking on videos on channels that
usually have influencers talking on
videos on that channel and so I just I
just want you to know that I am
dedicated in what I do
for you to have the best chance
of success
with the least amount of money being
spent and the least amount of time being
spent
and so yeah if you want to go consume
things great I’m going to make sure that
you’re efficient about that and that
you’re productive with what you get
so thank you David the D influencer
that’s me from now on I feel like
getting a business card
how about you do you find yourself being
influenced by people all the time and
then going oh did I why did I buy this

oh I can’t return this I I don’t really
have a reason it works okay but anyway
