How I Would Master Social Media in 2026 (If Starting From Zero)

Most people sit down every Monday and ask what they should post today. After 20 years of building audiences online, I can tell you that is exactly where the strategy breaks down. The problem is not effort, it is the system upstream of all of it.

In this video I walk through the four-move framework I would use if I had to master social media from scratch in 2026. From building your authority positioning and content pillars to running a content flywheel that turns one anchor video into 40 to 60 pieces a month, this is the full system, not just tactics.

I also cover why chasing virality is the wrong game for founders and business owners, and how authority-driven content converts through sales enablement, AI search visibility, and direct response. If your content is not moving your business, this is where to start.

You will learn:
— Why the post is not the unit, the idea is, and how that one shift changes your entire output
— How one anchor video becomes 10 to 16 pieces of content across every major platform
— The three jobs every piece of content needs to rotate through: trust, reach, and usefulness
— How to remove yourself as the bottleneck so the system runs on 30 minutes of review per week
