Transcript
Everybody's heard about this private chef in the Hamptons who wasn't actually a private chef in the Hamptons, was actually just renting Airbnbs, making food, making a bunch of beautiful content about being a private chef in The Hamptons. And by doing that, became a private chef in The Hamptons. This went viral a little while ago, but I can't stop thinking about it. If you have an expertise or a service that you provide, the value that you are gonna be able to extract from the market, the world clients is going to be a function of how much attention and how well known you are for that expertise or service. This guy's the real deal. He is a private chef. He is physically located in the Hamptons. When the only people that know that are like your friends and your mom, then you can make a living with it. That's like literally what most people do. Right? I'm describing a career. But this dude just showed us that whether it's being a private chef in the Hamptons or being like the biggest baddest CPA in your tier, like the Good of CPAs in your niche, in your tier. All you have to do is make content about it and it becomes a completely different animal. It's crazy.
