The TikTok strategy that’s printing MILLIONS right now… (ft. Rob The Bank)

TikTok, Creator Armies, and $100M Strategies - February 24, 2025 (about 1 month ago) • 01:22:17

This "My First Million" episode features Shaan Puri and Robert Oliver discussing the massive opportunities presented by TikTok, particularly TikTok Shop. Robert Oliver, a successful entrepreneur who previously built and sold a $30 million Amazon business, argues that TikTok represents the biggest opportunity since the early days of Amazon. He emphasizes the platform's unique algorithm, its shift towards short-form video content, and its potential for incredibly high returns on ad spend.

  • TikTok as a Paradigm Shift: Robert Oliver and Shaan Puri discuss how TikTok has become a primary search engine and news source for Gen Z, fundamentally changing how information spreads and how brands connect with consumers. They compare this shift to the rise of Amazon and how it disrupted traditional retail.
  • TikTok Playbook: The Creator Army Model: Robert Oliver details the strategy of leveraging numerous creators to generate product-specific content, rather than relying on established influencers. This "army" approach maximizes the chances of a video going viral, driving significant sales with minimal investment. He uses Andrew Tate's affiliate marketing strategy as an early example of this model.
  • Success Stories: Robert Oliver shares examples of brands thriving on TikTok, including Roost Research, a supplement company achieving millions in monthly sales through creator-driven content. He also discusses Evil Goods, a skincare brand, and his own cologne brand, Top Shelf, highlighting their success using this approach. He analyzes a specific high-performing TikTok video selling oil of oregano, breaking down its effective use of trending sounds, storytelling, and scarcity tactics.
  • Brainstorming a $100 Million TikTok Brand: Shaan and Robert brainstorm a potential $100 million TikTok brand focused on the "looksmaxing" trend, emphasizing jawline enhancement. They use ChatGPT to generate product names, settling on "Chisel" gum, and discuss marketing strategies leveraging the platform's creator network.
  • Luxury Pet Brand Opportunity: They identify the luxury pet market as another untapped area ripe for disruption on TikTok. Robert Oliver suggests leveraging the mimetic theory, where desire is driven by what others want, by partnering with relevant figures in the pet space to spark a trend.
  • Common Mistakes and Advice: Robert Oliver warns against being stingy with creator commissions, emphasizing generosity in the current TikTok landscape. He advises aspiring entrepreneurs to be observers, not consumers, on the platform and to capitalize on emerging trends. He highlights the importance of understanding the platform's culture and treating creators fairly.
  • Life Maxing Philosophy: Robert Oliver introduces his "life maxing" philosophy, encouraging individuals to fully commit to pursuing their passions and maximizing their potential in all areas of life. He emphasizes intentional character design and Bezos's regret minimization framework as guiding principles. He and Shaan share their personal approaches to "life maxing," including pursuing new skills and setting ambitious yearly challenges.

Robert Oliver
The point of this conversation is that this is a gold rush, and who knows how often these come around.
Shaan Puri
How much revenue will your brands do using this TikTok model this year? A hundred million plus? So, five brands are going to do over a hundred million this year, and this is the playbook you're running across all of them. Yeah, so what's an example of...?
Robert Oliver
One of these videos, I think this video made this kid close to $50,000 from a single video.
Shaan Puri
What you said in this video will make people millions of dollars if all they did was just try to act on it.
Robert Oliver
Millions are being printed on TikTok Shop.
Shaan Puri
What are the mistakes people make? My advice is...
Robert Oliver
Be an observer, not a consumer. That's the best thing you can do.
Shaan Puri
Let's brainstorm a hundred million dollar TikTok brand. Yeah, I'm going to...
Robert Oliver
Show you something that the world was never gonna see, but I'm going to show how serious I take this. Alright, ready? Has anyone ever worn a cutoff like this before?
Shaan Puri
The first one to bring the gun show down to them.
Robert Oliver
So, I was just thinking... I've watched a lot of these and I've seen a lot of guests. I feel like I'm different in a lot of ways, so I might as well visually capture that, you know? Make a statement.
Shaan Puri
You were early to the Amazon trend, mhmm. You took $5,000 and turned it into a $30,000,000 company. You sold it, and what you told me was basically that this now is the first and biggest thing you've seen since that Amazon opportunity. Is that right? It is. It is. And I've looked for these; I didn't appreciate it.
Robert Oliver
In the Amazon era, I look for these moments in time where you don't need a ton of startup capital. You don't need to raise money, and you can basically just find something that works—a system, a platform. Latch onto that and create something of substantial enterprise value. TikTok represents that. So, what I...
Shaan Puri
I want to go through the big idea. Why should people care about TikTok right now? What do you see as the big opportunity? Specifically, what are some examples of people that are crushing it? How are they crushing it? What's the playbook? And then, where are the opportunities that you see that are still open that anyone could go do? So that's my game plan.
Robert Oliver
Absolutely. So, top of the funnel here, fundamentally, people don't appreciate what's actually happening with TikTok. Shop is a component of that; that's the center of their model. But think about even restaurants. Think about Google. Think about Facebook (Meta) ads. All of these things represent a paradigm shift. A good example: my now ex-wife and I went to Tokyo about a year and a half ago. If we had gone five years ago, she would have gone to Google to search for restaurants or used Yelp. Now, she goes on TikTok and wants to visually see what's going on. Shopping is turning more live. All of these things are fundamentally changing. Even the creators of this last generation, the influencers, are coming up off short-form content. We all know how important clipping and all of that stuff is.
Shaan Puri
The way I read it, 30% of Gen Z's primary news source is TikTok. Yep. And then the same thing goes for their primary search engine. In my company, we did a little poll. We were trying to work on our Google search results.
Robert Oliver
Yep.
Shaan Puri
I was asking our employees, "So when you Google for this, what do you do?" They replied, "I don't really Google for that. I just go to TikTok and type in the name. Then whatever comes up on TikTok is what I use."
Robert Oliver
Yep.
Shaan Puri
That blew my mind because I wasn't using TikTok as a search engine.
Robert Oliver
Yep, and that's the paradigm shift. That's the opportunity because it's so early. I don't like the word "gamifiable," but when you think through these new models and how information is being shared, that's where the brands of the future are being created. That's where the artists of the future are being created. That's where fashion design is all happening—through this new means of distribution.
Sam Parr
Alright, so imagine landing a call with Richard Branson from a cold email. One founder, one of our listeners, did that! The HubSpot for Startups team just launched a playbook sharing exactly how it was done. Not only that, but they also released a killer report on fundraising for founders. You can steal Ava's cold email playbook, gain insight into what investors want, and discover the top tech stack across founders, and so much more. I can't stress this enough: this is crucial if you're looking to get into networking and raise money right now. Get the link in the description below. Now, back to the show.
Shaan Puri
By the way, this happens in everything. So, I don't know if you've ever heard the story of why Obama was so successful during his first presidential run. Do you know the story?
Robert Oliver
Just tapping into social media and all that.
Shaan Puri
It was kind of social media, but he got this big movement going for two reasons. One, he was one of the first presidents to build a huge email list at the time. The people who were running were doing fundraisers, they were doing TV, they were doing traditional interviews, but they weren't building an email list. He built a giant email machine before anybody else. Then he started using social media on top of that. He basically hired people. Trump did the same thing when he won in 2016. Even this year, when he won, he raised way less money than his opponent. The first time, he raised way less than Hillary, and this time, way less than Kamala/Biden. In both cases, it was because he was using a different marketing strategy. His was all Facebook and online, while the others were doing all traditional TV buys, commercials, stuff like that. So when you see this, like you said, paradigm shift, it's like the new marketing opportunity. If you can pounce on that, that's where you can get rich. Can you quickly just say what you saw in Amazon and when that was? Back in 2014 or so?
Robert Oliver
Yeah, and I'll go from that to now, like the numbers we're seeing, the difference in terms of like ROAS (Return on Ad Spend), right? It's challenging for people because it's happening so fast. I think a lot of people still think that, you know, digital marketing is the new paradigm, and actually, it's like all the way over here now. Amazon's a great example. I remember seeing brands; billboards were a huge strategy back then. I started by working with brands; that's how I got my start, as a consultant helping them sell on Amazon. I'm going, "Guys, you're spending $50,000 on a billboard campaign, and when you give me $5 to spend on Amazon, you're having trouble tracking that." But right here, we're making $5 for every dollar spent. And this is me as a 22-year-old kid. They're like, "No, this is the way it is," or like, "You know, we're going to double the bodybuilding.com needs these," or "GNC needs these." By the time I finally realized, it probably took me like a year. I'm going, "These guys are slow."
Shaan Puri
At first, you think you're dumb. Eventually, you realize they're dumb. You're like, "Yo, I keep putting a dollar into this magic money machine and $5 are coming out."
Robert Oliver
is a
Shaan Puri
5x
Robert Oliver
This is cool.
Shaan Puri
ROAS, for people who don't know, is **Return on Ad Spend**. It measures how many dollars I get back in revenue for every dollar I spend on marketing. With TV and billboards, you don't really know. The famous advertising saying is, "Half of our advertising doesn't work." The problem is, we just don't know which half. For a while, CMOs didn't mind that because if you can't track it, you can't be held accountable. But then Facebook and all these other platforms came along, and all of a sudden, for every dollar you put in, you get a verified amount of how much revenue you're generating from it. Now you're held accountable, but that also presents an opportunity.
Robert Oliver
Yep.
Shaan Puri
Just for a kid like you, you're like, "Alright, if this works, it's inarguable. This is working, and I'm getting 5x return on my money."
Robert Oliver
And so now what we're seeing, over time, is that it compresses. Right? Enough guys like me do podcasts like this. Facebook ads are great, goddamn podcasting, but it shrinks the margin. So, like, you look at Amazon now, which has been my... you know, I've been doing ads on there for ten years now. A one to one and a half ROAS (Return on Ad Spend) is like good in a hot category, which is not profitable. But you're, you know, that's where you're like, "Okay, repeat customers, building the brand." You have that modeled as like that was the last couple of years. And then TikTok comes along, and that organic algorithm is so damn good. This is where now it almost goes back to the billboard era of like, actually tracking becomes a little more difficult. But we're seeing just money spent on this system, which we can get into a little bit later. This system is like seven to eight times minimum return versus a one times ROAS. And upwards of, like, when I first did this with, you know, Jimmy eighteen months ago, it was like 30 times. You know? And then the question was, "How can we spend more?"
Shaan Puri
I mean, it's like **PEDs for marketing**, right? It's like, if you're going to get... I can use this channel that not everybody understands, this playbook that not everybody understands, and get **7x**. Or I go to Facebook and Amazon, I get **1x** or **1.5x**. I mean, that's like **cheat codes** in the game of business. Can you give people a sense of how much revenue your brands will do using this TikTok model this year?
Robert Oliver
So, directly attributable to TikTok Shop, we modeled probably around $40 million. Overall, the halo effect of all that is over $100 million.
Shaan Puri
So, your brands... which is what? You have three or four, roughly?
Robert Oliver
Or how?
Shaan Puri
How many are you running right now?
Robert Oliver
Five that I either own, you know, the majority of or have a meaningful stake in.
Shaan Puri
Yeah, mhmm. So, five brands are going to do over a hundred million this year, and this is the playbook you're running across all of them.
Robert Oliver
Yep, yep, and by...
Shaan Puri
The way... how old are these brands?
Robert Oliver
One or two years old, it's actually unreal. I don't want to say things stress or scare me at this point, but it's one of those things where it's like, "Alright, we gotta see this through." The essence of this conversation is that this is a gold rush, and who knows how often these come around, right? I feel like I'm getting to go back to my twenty-two-year-old self and saying, "Hey, this is going to be really big. You know, focus right now, do the right things, execute." And that's where we're at.
Shaan Puri
Is that a conversation you had with yourself back when you were 22 and the Amazon gold rush was happening?
Robert Oliver
I took it really seriously, but you don't know what you don't know, right? I just didn't appreciate... like, who knew private equity was going to come in and value all these brands? And who knew that Amazon was going to grow to that extent? It was still kind of a discount site when I was first on there. That's why brands didn't want to do it.
Shaan Puri
You were in the supplements category, and you said the way the supplement game worked was you had GNC or these retail stores. If you wanted to win in supplements, you had to win in retail. Mhm. And then you're like, Amazon came around and changed the game because now you have this online retailer. Suddenly, new supplement brands could win there where you couldn't get on the shelf at GNC. Exactly.
Robert Oliver
And you.
Shaan Puri
Were you saying that now the same thing is happening to Amazon? Basically, there's a new one coming in and sweeping the rug, creating the opportunity where maybe you weren't going to win on Amazon, but now you can win in this new way. Is that right? Did I find that right?
Robert Oliver
Exactly right. It's these continual paradigm shifts. Like Amazon, there was this brand, BPI Sports, who was number one in GNC. Then I just remember seeing that flip where Amazon all of a sudden was like 50% of their revenue. They didn't focus on Amazon, and then there were brands passing them up. So, the brands of the future were born on that digital platform. There are Facebook ads and other digital means, but we'll call it the e-commerce era. Now it's happening again with the short-form discovery era. So, it's much less about what does your website look like or this and that. It's like, how are you optimizing for this means of information dissemination?
Shaan Puri
And you know, I think when most people say "gold rush," if you call 10 things a gold rush, then what's really a gold rush? But I feel like you genuinely believe it. You're like, "Yo, I'm not fucking around. I'm serious right now. There is a window where something can happen." Could you make your pitch, not to me, but to the next Rob, who is 23, 24, 25, or even 30 years old? It doesn't matter what age. Just be like, "Yo, take this seriously." You can even just direct a camera. What's your message to that person about this opportunity?
Robert Oliver
I'm gonna hijack your friend here. How many businesses a day do you think Ben looks at? Just in general, 10 to 15 a day. Yeah, a day. So he's constantly looking at opportunities. He sent me a text and he goes, "Oh, this TikTok thing really does seem to be the best opportunity to go from like no net worth to like $1 to $5 million with no skills, no background, no tech, whatever." When he sent me that, because obviously I accept my opinion is gonna be biased—I do this every day—but when Ben sent me that, I was like, "Oh, okay, yeah, no, this is for real." Then you look at our own, you know, like we're doing this. Our company growth, even though we have skills and we've been doing this a while, to go from zero to, you know, a $100+ million run rate is actually insane. We're not raising; we're profitable—like super profitable.
Shaan Puri
Yeah, you've bootstrapped these.
Robert Oliver
Right.
Shaan Puri
I'm a small investor owner, but you didn't take our money for the money. You just... no.
Robert Oliver
We love you. You just...
Shaan Puri
Want you just want us to be on board. Alright, so let's stop teasing. What are the brands like? Tell me some stories. I don't live in this world; you do. Tell me some stories of some brands that are crushing it. What are some examples that make this real?
Robert Oliver
One that I think we could start with is this company, Roost Research. This guy had a little Amazon experience; he's 27, and this is like a nine-figure play. I just couldn't be more excited for him. So, I'm hyping it up here, but he reached out to me two and a half years ago, before TikTok had even taken off. He said, "Hey, I'm thinking about starting a supplement brand on Amazon." He picked the right category; he recognized that longevity is getting bigger. He gets on Amazon, and he's doing alright. Then TikTok comes around, and he pours all in on it. Two years later, I believe this month, he'll do north of $15,000,000 between all online sales this month.
Shaan Puri
Is the product... what do they do? Is it something like research?
Robert Oliver
NAD root research... It's that, you know, every couple of years a new supplement category comes along that might have long-term staying power. Collagen was the last huge one, you know? A $4,000,000,000 exit for Vital Proteins to Nestlé, and he's betting on that. Then he went all in, all bootstrapped, no raised money—not even like he hasn't revamped the brand yet. If you go look at it, you're like, "No, this looks a little like... you know, it doesn't look like a multi-hundred million dollar thing." But that's what he's building. So I'd say that one.
Shaan Puri
So, he spotted the health trend early... early enough, not like the first guy, but early enough. He built a good product in that space. You said he went all in on TikTok. You know, figured out TikTok. What did he actually do to make it work on TikTok?
Robert Oliver
He tapped into this creator model. So, should we go into detail on that?
Shaan Puri
The playbook.
Robert Oliver
Yeah.
Shaan Puri
If I have all these ideas, they have a playbook.
Robert Oliver
Yeah, what's the TikTok playbook? So, it's important to preface it with this: everyone is used to YouTube and Instagram, where your followers matter. For example, if you have an Instagram following of a million people, that's valuable. TikTok shattered that. You have to look at everything through the lens of views. If we start a brand new TikTok account together, we could post a video of dancing in the street, and that could get 10,000,000 views. That's the center of this whole model. Swinging at bat, screw your brand page. For instance, Roost doesn't have a brand page. They might run ads, but the key part of the model is how many people we can get creating product-specific content for the brand.
Shaan Puri
Like an army. Instead of one influencer becoming Kim Kardashian or The Rock, or whatever, instead of saying, "I will become famous to get a lot of followers and then sell products," what you're saying is the new model is an army of people who need to create content. Then, it's just the content that wins. One of those pieces of content needs to pop in order for this to work.
Robert Oliver
Yep, is that it? Yeah, exactly. The first big use case of this before the product was Andrew Tate. Like, can we say that name? That's how he broke the internet, not even intentionally. He had affiliates making Tate content, right? So he's not posting on TikTok, but he has 500 hungry little minions who love him.
Shaan Puri
And he was paying them, or they were just inspired? What was going on?
Robert Oliver
Yeah, there was an affiliate commission back to make more videos for him. So, like, you could get people paying $50 a month by making this content.
Shaan Puri
He created basically like a content MLM almost.
Robert Oliver
Pretty much, yeah. No, exactly.
Shaan Puri
So, he... what was his? I mean, that's kind of genius of him to do that because no other... you know, we were content creators, podcasters, whatever. But if we created content, we just put it on our channel. Yep, and it was just us, or like we would hire people to create clips for us. But on our one channel, what he did was different. He was like, "Yo, here's a bunch of raw material. Run it. You figure out how to go viral, and if you do, I'll pay you per view." What was he... what was he doing?
Robert Oliver
Per sign-up, they got back to the community that would teach you how to do that. So, I mean, the end result was the most Googled man on the planet, right? Now you see that everywhere. Streamers like Adin Ross and those guys spend six figures a month paying on a CPM metric, paying people to chop up their streams and put it out on TikTok. I do that with my stuff too. Someone from my team will chop this up, and you might see it, right? Swings at bat. So now, take that.
Shaan Puri
Same idea. When you say "my team," do you literally mean like my employees, or are you saying, "I just like both"? We're trying to hit it.
Robert Oliver
From every way, and brands are too. This is the fundamental thing: how can you get as many good quality swings at bat as humanly possible? Sometimes it's freelance people, and then sometimes it's internally. It's a little harder on Shop, so beautiful because the model itself incentivizes it without us having to change hands. You know, like internally I'm trying to figure out metrics, like you know, see all that, right? Whereas if you have talented creators, they just go and that was taste too. It worked; it fed itself. The economics fed itself, so Shop feeds itself.
Shaan Puri
So, just to explain, instead of just sending it to famous people, influencers, or random people, what happened was certain individuals realized, "Oh shit, I can make money doing this." So, instead of just doing it once, they thought, "What if I made five videos a day? What if I started picking brands that I thought would perform well?" They started making $500 a month and then $5,000 a month. You have creators that make... how much does the most successful creators make per month? Just creators. They don't own the brand, they don't buy inventory, and they don't have to run the operations. They're just making TikToks.
Robert Oliver
What do you think? What do you think?
Shaan Puri
I think I've heard that there are 20-year-olds who are able to make a hundred grand a month.
Robert Oliver
Yeah, like... a lot. And way more than you'd think. I was at an event for one of our groups that I own a little piece of, and we've had 27 people make over $100,000 in a month as freelance creators. The important part is these are not influencers. Like, Jacqueline, I have a YouTube video with her. She was working as a server eight months ago, making $20 an hour, and she made like $180,000 last month.
Shaan Puri
And what they did, eight months ago, was go into the lab. They were basically like, "Alright, I have to figure out what content I can create that will make this product interesting and appealing to other people." Then they started making like thirty, forty, or fifty videos a month. Most of them don't do well, but a few of them start doing well. They're studying and learning, "Oh, if I do this hook that grabs people, but it's not converting, okay, what can make it convert better?" Yep, and they're just specializing in the craft of short-form content. It's not too dissimilar from David Ogilvy in the past, figuring out how to do print ads that are going to convert. All the great marketers in the past, instead of going to an ad agency, are now going to these creator armies where young people are specializing in how to create short-form content for direct response.
Robert Oliver
Marketing... yeah, who? This means that's exactly what it is. There are varying degrees of it. There's the innovators who can sit down with the algorithm. The algorithm—you have to capture attention, you have to keep them watching, and then you need something to convert. Then there's the second wave of that, where one of the innovators hits what works. After that, there are literally 500 kids that are going to copy that same idea, right? They only make 20% of it. But then what does that do for the brand? All of a sudden, you have all these videos going nuclear. I bet you Russo's... show me a video.
Shaan Puri
So, what's an example of...?
Robert Oliver
One of these videos... this is a great one. I think this video, last I checked, had made this kid close to $50,000 from a single video. He paired, you know, a modern thing—Trump getting elected—with conspiracy and all this... whatever. So I...
TikTok
Just got into the office one day ago, and it's already going after one of the most predatory industries in the world. Watch this.
Robert Oliver
We have a public health system that does.
Shaan Puri
But that was...
Robert Oliver
The hook.
Shaan Puri
So, the hook was first. He's writing about the news trend, Trump. Uh-huh. Instead of saying, "Hey, I have a product I'd like to tell you about," no, no, no. He starts by talking about Trump, and then he has this curiosity. What would you call it?
Robert Oliver
That... it's that information gap, right? Where all of a sudden he went after one of the biggest industries in the world. What did he do? Which one? Uh-huh.
Shaan Puri
What's that industry, and what did he do?
Robert Oliver
And then you hear it in the background. It's that mysterious... it's the trending sound, you know?
TikTok
Change starting today. But you know what's crazy? His buddy Donald White was coming at... by.
Shaan Puri
The way, even how raw this is, he's taking a video of like an Android phone. Yeah, so if you don't think this is an advertisement...
Robert Oliver
No, exactly. Everything nowadays is shifting to that just raw, organic content. You don't want to feel like an influencer is selling you something, and that's not what he is. You know, this is like a random dude telling you a story. Alright, okay. What’s he... you put the raw materials back in. I guess I gave ahead a little bit here, but you know, it's the Trump things that you're doing on...
Shaan Puri
Got Dana White more social proof.
TikTok
Yep, interesting because around the same time, they were trying to silence this doctor for giving...
Robert Oliver
Us is.
Shaan Puri
This is the scientist now. So, the... yeah.
Robert Oliver
Yeah, Berg is another famous scientist. So, they're building... he's building this case for something.
Shaan Puri
Still hasn't told you about the product, right?
Robert Oliver
Problem that.
TikTok
Oil of oregano is the absolute best remedy for that. It's antimicrobial, antibacterial, antifungal, anti-candida, antiviral, anti-parasitic, and anti-mold.
TikTok
Now, I did some research and not only is oil of oregano so...
Robert Oliver
Really, you get the idea. Yeah, and then he still hasn't sold you. He's building this idea of oil of oregano, and then at the end, I believe he...
TikTok
But I've been taking two of these pearls, and he's going to feel like I'm coming down with something. It knocks that out right away. The only bad thing about this product is how fast they sell out, especially around this season. So, if you're sick of being sick and you want to try these out for yourself, and you see that orange cart right there, that means they are still in stock and the flash sale is still live.
Robert Oliver
Masterful TikTok shop video.
Shaan Puri
That's a masterful TikTok shop video. Mhmm.
Robert Oliver
And like, if you don't market it, you see it and you go, "Yeah," but you forget that the average person sees that and they're like, you know, they're going to the coffee table at work the next day and talking about, "Man, you know, like mold and fungus is everywhere." And by the way, "Here, take this oil of oregano."
Shaan Puri
I got cousins that will send me this. Yeah, and they'll be like, "You gotta start taking this. The government's out to get you." They have these conspiracy theories combined with, you know, "In ancient times, this used to be the way we did things." Uh-huh. And then, you know, his last scarcity call to action where he's like, "The only downside is they sell out so fast. So if you see the button is orange, that means they still have it. Just get it while it's available."
Robert Oliver
Still there? Go and it's on Flashdale right now. You know, it's like, "Did you see the brand you're invested in?" Did you have anyone send you content from that at any point? Like, just...
Shaan Puri
Not only did I have people send me content from that brand, which we were the founders of, but the founder also doesn't want us talking about it. Then, he sent me a video of other people creating videos saying, "I'm tired of hearing about this," which is like the ultimate sign of respect. It means it dominated TikTok so much. Their video was like, "If I see one more video telling me about this, I'm not going to buy your thing." But even that video had 7,000,000 views of the person complaining about seeing this so much.
Robert Oliver
**Which means mission accomplished. We got 600,000,000 views in a month. That is an insane, insane number, and that was before shop.**
Shaan Puri
How much did you spend that month to get 600,000,000 views?
Robert Oliver
It was a little over a hundred grand. That was before Shopify. So, Shopify now is changing the unit economics. I'd say, not in favor of the brands, but at the end of the day, it adds a level of scale. Now, with commissions and stuff, that was when we were sending it to Amazon and we weren't even tracking it. We were just like, "If we can get 600 million views, we're gonna be alright," you know?
Shaan Puri
For a hundred grand, well, it creates this amazing flywheel, right? Because you hear about a brand a bunch on TikTok, you then Google it and click the link, or you go to Amazon. Yep, and you search on Amazon. It tells Google, it tells Amazon, people are searching for this brand name. It ups your rank there. Exactly, organic ranking off of the social, in addition to the direct conversions on social.
Robert Oliver
Yep, no, exactly. Uh-huh. Where do...?
Shaan Puri
You go to find these brands that are crushing it.
Robert Oliver
This tool, and this is the other crazy thing, Calodata is directly plugged into TikTok's API. Calodata, spelled C-A-L-O-D-A-T-A. If you go to the homepage here, you're seeing top products and top videos. You can look at, like, you could study... that's that kid's video. I know him; he's in our group. But that was one of the top videos from last week. It made him...
Shaan Puri
If you go right now to the top products, what do you see? Is it like rankings weekly, or how do they do this?
Robert Oliver
Yeah, so, like beauty and personal care, you can filter however you want. So this is last.
Shaan Puri
Are you in this list?
Robert Oliver
This is the last thirty days. We are in this list; we're top five, and we're not three, four, or five. Then I think if you expand it, we have a couple of products in the top ten.
Shaan Puri
Can you talk about what your products are? Which products can you talk about?
Robert Oliver
Yeah, I mean, like a really good example has been...
Shaan Puri
Are we gatekeeping here, or are you?
Robert Oliver
No, I don't. I mean, I yap about stuff on Instagram all the time. So, Evil Goods has been a really good case study of beef tallow in the skincare section.
Shaan Puri
How'd you decide to do beef tallow of all?
Robert Oliver
That was an investment. One of our students saw that category as similar to longevity. Holistic wellness is obviously becoming huge. People don't like toxic skincare. This seems to have some good support; it has this grassroots Twitter movement. Let's bet on that. So, you know, that's what we did. Pretty much whenever you see the ability to market to fear, like that big pharma or whatever it might be, or insecurities, run into the plastics.
Shaan Puri
Yeah, whatever.
Robert Oliver
That would do well on this platform. Just because people feel like they're learning something, it checked all those boxes. He came out with a crazy aggressive name: "Evil Goods." It's like, you know, we'll see because that could disrupt the ability to go to retail and stuff like that. But at the same time, Liquid Death... yeah, yeah, so it could.
Shaan Puri
Be a liquid death or exactly.
Robert Oliver
Exactly. So, hopefully, I plan to flag on that. But this thing has gone just nuclear.
Shaan Puri
What's your cologne brand?
Robert Oliver
Top shelf. This ties back to my thesis that massive industries are overturned during these eras. I want "Top Shelf" to be a passion project of mine. I want to build a creed for Gen Z, you know, a creed like fragrance. It presents the opportunity to do that.
Shaan Puri
So, the way that cologne works... I don't know much about cologne, but it seems like it's kind of a luxury item sold through retail traditionally. Yep, super high margin—like crazy margins—because it's basically, you know, water and a little bit of essential oil or whatever. So, how do you sell that? How do you make a popular cologne brand? And could you say, like, revenue-wise, what that's going to do this year?
Robert Oliver
We've been doing close to a million bucks a month. So it's been... it's been a unique challenge for me. This ties back to, I mean seriously, everyone in this world, if you're venturing into it, pick something you like and see some area of disruption. Make stuff for yourself. Like that, that's really what I see. As I've gravitated more towards... you know, we talked about offline, but I like high fashion. I like design. So this seems like the perfect segue for me to go from consumable to something that can play in that world, right? Fashion culture? Yeah, exactly.
Shaan Puri
That world.
Robert Oliver
Exactly. So, like, Creed is relevant at these big fragrance houses in Paris and stuff like that. For me, it's been a...
Shaan Puri
I know it's luxury because I've never heard of what you're saying. It must be good.
Robert Oliver
Have you seen Creed? Or no? No, you probably mean Creed Aventus. It's like a popular fragrance that sells for $250 a bottle. So when I'm seeing that, I'm thinking, "Oh, I can see there's a lot of margin for it." Let's walk through it.
Shaan Puri
So, you're like, "Alright, I want to go into cologne." Mhm. You get it made. How? Where'd you go to make it?
Robert Oliver
So, I had to hire a... he's like, he called himself a professional nose, you know? And he's been designing fragrances for God knows how long. Okay, and so I'm learning. Did you...?
Shaan Puri
Just Google this guy. How'd you find him?
Robert Oliver
Our relationship with our other business partner is important. He had done skincare before, and this guy was a known figure in the industry. He charges an arm and a leg and made one good product, but I don't think I like it. So, I'm thinking, how can we build this out internally? I've learned more about the industry, like what smell is actually fascinating and how it makes people feel.
Shaan Puri
What's fascinating about it?
Robert Oliver
Just all the different, you know, mechanisms and mixes. Like, you go to Abercrombie, and you know exactly what it smells like. It's like a signature of branding. It can be a signature of a person, you know, like probably like...
Shaan Puri
The least used sense in marketing.
Robert Oliver
So, like... do you think about a fresh pair of Nikes? Like, that's intentional, right?
Shaan Puri
And like **new car smell**.
Robert Oliver
New car smell... and so it's just been a fun avenue to learn more. I'm far from an expert in it, just to be honest. We have the one product we're moving well with, and then we're trying to build out... oh wait.
Shaan Puri
So, tell me, you said you went to the nose? Mhm. The nose makes something for you? That's what you use? Or you said you didn't like it?
Robert Oliver
So, he actually made us eight different samples. We chose the one he wanted to use. We blew it up and did $700 our first month. It just got murdered with bad reviews. People hate it... like, hate it. And so now, all of a sudden, I got all...
Shaan Puri
You liked it or no? No? Yeah, okay. You and yourself were like one star.
Robert Oliver
Yeah, and I'm kind of... I didn't hate it, right? I didn't hate it, but I wasn't like, "Oh, I would wear this." At the time with Genius, I was really big on making products for yourself and being all in on that. Then we had all these things going nuclear, and so I'm like, "Money."
Shaan Puri
Right.
Robert Oliver
Where's the money? $90 bomb.
Shaan Puri
Make something for myself, but this time it's money instead of a product.
Robert Oliver
And honestly, I blew up in my face a little bit. So we revamped the second one and had a, you know, it's a winner. It was very methodical. That's the one doing like a million bucks a month. But before we...
Shaan Puri
Made a billion a month. It must have made a dollar a month. So how did it... what did you do initially to get that to work? So you go to the creators that... that was the...
Robert Oliver
Nice part: the first fragrance we got the playbook, like the angles that worked. So, good marketing, bad product.
Shaan Puri
Yeah, exactly. So, what were the angles? Can you give us an example of that?
Robert Oliver
That's another one. It's huge in this TikTok era. I don't like saying "Gen Z," actually; it's more about TikTok users. There are a billion users on there, right? So, it's a disservice to the app to say it's just Gen Z, although that's where a lot of these ideas percolate from. The self-improvement, dating, and all these little boxes that this generation is trying to check are hyper-relevant. For example, "smell" is a big thing in their world. How do you smell around the girl you're trying to talk to? It's a very easy fear.
Shaan Puri
Yeah, what's the name of your thing? It's like "Her Loss."
Robert Oliver
Her loss. Uh-huh.
Shaan Puri
Where did that come from? That's genius.
Robert Oliver
It's actually... I went through this whole, like, Drake era on my personal brand. He has an album called *Her Loss*. It's like, "Don't reinvent the wheel."
Shaan Puri
He succeeded. What would be like a killer hook to sell that cologne on?
Robert Oliver
They do actual skits. One that worked really well is when we had female creators do it, and they started calling it "pussy magnet juice." You gotta believe that! My boyfriend came home and this or whatever, you know? It was really high converting stuff.
Shaan Puri
There's a story. I just did a podcast with this guy, Craig Clemons. Do you know Craig? So, he told the story of "OG marketing" that's super relevant for this. I'm going to retell it because his episode's going to come out too. He talks about one of the greatest headlines he's ever read in marketing. He goes, "I have four for you," and the first one he told was about this headline. Here's the story: This guy is a famous marketer. He's known as one of the best marketers on earth. A Hollywood actor hits him up and says, "My wife wants to launch her own perfume brand. Will you come and help us with the marketing of it?" So, he meets the wife. She says, "I want to do this." He goes, "Say no more. I will make this happen." He starts studying fragrances and goes to a mall. You know the guys at the mall who have the "make your own fragrance" thing? He asks one of them, "What's the number one fragrance that women love?" The guy says, "Oh, sir, easy. China musk." He goes, "China musk?" The guy replies, "Yes, China musk. Smell it. It smells good." So, he takes it. This is only a couple of weeks in, but he doesn't go back to the Hollywood wife. He sits on it. He's like, "I need to make her wait for her to value this. I need to make it feel more important." After three months, he comes back to her and says, "I'd like to meet you. I have something for you." She goes, "Okay, what you got?" He replies, "I've traveled the world. I've tested thousands of things. I've studied and talked to everybody, and I found it. I found the greatest fragrance for you." She smells the China musk and says, "This is perfect." In the meantime, he goes to a jeweler and says, "I need you to make me the fanciest bottle you can come up with for this thing." It's like this diamond shape or whatever. He comes up with this beautiful bottle, he's got China musk, and then he tells her, "We're going to do a launch." She says, "Yeah, we could do it at this small place." He replies, "No, no, no. We need to do it somewhere bigger. How about the Crowne Plaza Hotel?" She's like, "That's huge! We would need a few thousand people to show up." He goes, "That's my job." So, she books the hotel and says, "You better not embarrass me." He goes home and thinks, "I gotta figure out a way to get thousands of people to come to this grand launch." He writes this headline that says, "Wife of famous Hollywood star swears under oath that her new perfume does not contain illegal sexual stimulants." He adds, "To prove its safety and that it is not what people are claiming, she is doing a live testing where she will prove without a shadow of a doubt that this fragrance works and is safe at the Crowne Plaza Hotel on this date." Like 10,000 people show up to this thing. It's packed. He hires armed security guards to walk in with handcuffs to a briefcase that contains the perfume. People see them walking in and think, "Holy shit! What is this thing that's being presented in this way?" There's this whole story, and it ends up becoming a bestseller. He's like, "That headline..." He breaks down the elements: "Wife of Hollywood star," curiosity gap—"Which Hollywood star?"—swears under oath. That's kind of like the conspiracy, the seriousness, the drama, the stakes of the...
Robert Oliver
Situation.
Shaan Puri
And then it doesn't contain sexual stimulants. So, like, how good is it? People think it's so good it should be illegal. You know, "evil goods" or the stuff you're talking about with your cologne, it hits those same notes. Now, that was back in the, I don't know, like the seventies or something like that. It was a long time ago, but it's the same playbook just redone today in 2025.
Robert Oliver
And then Craig took it and put it in Facebook ads, and I'm taking it and putting it on TikTok. Quick side note too for anyone: I know there's a vast internet world of gurus and people that talk about stuff. If a guru or talking head in the marketing space doesn't know Craig, they're not really tapped into the work. Yeah, like it's actually simple. Anyone that... I don't know Craig personally; I don't know if he knows me, but I know that operation is run like *fucking* Skunkworks. He has popularized a lot of things. Actually, that framework has been seen in a Facebook ad from him. His name's... you know, that he's... you don't see him. Yeah, exactly.
Shaan Puri
He's a madman. Uh-huh.
Robert Oliver
What?
Shaan Puri
Could you show me a couple of other stories that you think are pretty badass? Stories that we should know about, the stuff that's working on TikTok.
Robert Oliver
Underbrush Gum is another example of a really scrappy startup entrepreneur that's doing millions a month now. They make this gum themselves and have built their own factory. He's had a crazy rush over the last month, but like brands will go up and then down. You gotta find the new angles, right? Like this Trump video I just showed you will work for a month and then it'll go away. Underbrush just hit a huge one this last month, playing into TikTok's going away. My small family business is going to get crushed, and it was the founder doing like some ASMR video of how he's making it.
Shaan Puri
Right, while talking about that.
Robert Oliver
Yeah, well, no. Then he just gave that out, and then the army picked it up and all put their own play on it.
Shaan Puri
Gotcha.
Robert Oliver
So, it was the same angle over and over again with different voices. Some were claiming just their business, but that did millions for him over the last thirty days.
Shaan Puri
Can I put you on the spot? Yeah, let's do a little magic trick. So, let's brainstorm live... a hundred million dollar TikTok brand. Yep, so where do we start? I'll be your wingman. I'll be your brainstorming partner. Let's go!
Robert Oliver
Right into Gen Z and this younger generation, there's so much change. Like, if you've talked about looks maxing, right? Where like...
Shaan Puri
Explain what that is, so...
Robert Oliver
Looks maxing is interesting, to say the least. But there's this subset of young men that are hyper-focused on looks, almost to the point of it being super feminine.
Shaan Puri
They're optimizing it.
Robert Oliver
Yeah, exactly. It's like their... their, again, their heart's in a good place. Most things can be boiled down to basic human desires, like they want to reproduce, right? But how they're going about it is all of a sudden... have you seen those funny videos on morning routines now? It's almost like Patrick Bateman-esque, but...
Shaan Puri
It's just so elaborate.
Robert Oliver
You mean, or yeah, I can trim each like that. That's so... but there's a market there. There's not enough products there. So it's kind of like a community.
Shaan Puri
It sounds silly, right? When you say it, it sounds superficial. But you know, how different is that than, you know, maybe the bodybuilding movement in the early days? It's like these guys who take it really seriously. They're counting the reps and the sets, and they're figuring out, you know, what type of training is going to lead to...
Robert Oliver
You know this muscle, right?
Shaan Puri
Back here, the lower head of the tricep... To anyone else, it sounds like overkill. But they got into it, they got passionate about it, and they wanted to explore, "What if we took this to the nth degree?" Brian Johnson is doing that with longevity right now. Yeah, it sounds crazy. It's easy to make fun of him, but he's like, "I'm gonna take it to the full money." And there are people who rally behind that; they think that’s cool. You're saying, look, maxing is this early wave where people are doing that. They're taking their looks as seriously as women take their looks. Yep, because we all know women have this huge... you know, like tutorials on eyelash extensions and every little nook and cranny. Now you're saying guys are doing it too.
Robert Oliver
For free, exactly. For guys, okay? And there's no... it's an underserved market. You've seen products like... there's a product called Jar Size. Have you seen that?
Shaan Puri
Oh, jar size... like your jaw, your jawline.
Robert Oliver
Yeah, exactly. That's like one of the core foundations of looksmaxing. And so that product blew up, right?
Shaan Puri
It's like a jaw exercising, right?
Robert Oliver
Just that you just bite it. You said, "Does it work? Does it not?" I don't know. But then, you know, the kids are...
TikTok
Right.
Robert Oliver
Right viewing.
Shaan Puri
And so, you're just studying culture. It seems like you're just watching... I want to point out one thing. I had a really early friend in Silicon Valley teach me this, and I never forgot it. He was the first product manager at Twitter. If you remember, Twitter at the time was really made fun of when it came out because you would text a phone number. There was no app; you just texted a phone number whatever you wanted. Anyone who was subscribed to your phone number would get a message that said something like, "Sean's eating." Just to say, "I'm eating a ham sandwich." So, it got made fun of. If you go look up old TechCrunch articles, people made fun of it. It was this like frivolous, stupid thing.
Robert Oliver
But, it turns out...
Shaan Puri
You know, now it's like the beacon of free speech. Mhmm... like that's what happens in the world, right? Mhmm. At the time, I asked, "Why'd you take the job at Twitter? Did it seem like the next big thing?" He goes, "No." But he figured out that anytime there's a phenomenon of behavior that you see as weird, and you don't even understand why they're doing it, but they are undeniably doing it, you should lean in as an investor or as an entrepreneur. That's your signal to lean in. Whereas most people use that same signal and they laugh or they push away.
Robert Oliver
Yep, and it gets harder the older you get. But staying tapped in on that and not being oblivious to the change in the future is important. I was like my dad with Instagram, thinking, "What a stupid platform! People posting pictures." Now, everyone knows you have to have an Instagram. So, that's happening again.
Shaan Puri
I think that's great advice. We were hanging out with Mr. Beast last week, and he has this saying: "You're crazy until you're successful; then you're a genius." He goes on to say, "I've been doing the same thing the whole time. You know, I used to sit in my bedroom and make ridiculous videos. At the time, I had no money, so my ridiculous videos back then included me counting to 100,000. It was like a nineteen-hour video or something. Or, I would take a plastic knife and cut through a plastic table with just a knife. It was just a stunt." Now, it's like taking a bulldozer and cutting through the Eiffel Tower, right? He just scaled it up. But he said, "At that time, I was seen as stupid and crazy. People would ask, 'Why are you wasting all your time on this YouTube thing? Go to school, get a degree, get a good job.' Now, I'm this... you know, I used to be weird; now they call me passionate. I used to be kind of, you know, crazy; now I'm obsessed." He's like, "I didn't change the whole time." So, kind of what you're saying is you see the culture doing something that seems novel, seems new. Instinctively, as somebody who's a little bit older...
Robert Oliver
That's stupid.
Shaan Puri
That's stupid. This... and now you're like, "Get curious instead."
Robert Oliver
Be... my advice is to be an observer, not a consumer, on all of these platforms. Observe what's actually happening. Hold your opinion to yourself; just be super matter-of-fact and observe. Because if looks maxing views are going up month over month, that just is. I don't really care what your opinion on it is, right? That just is. That's fact. Work backwards from that. So, looks maxing... I mean, with that, all of a sudden, it's literally how broad it becomes. Just like when pet supplements became a thing on Amazon, it's a category that becomes potential billions overnight with nothing in it. And so, men... who makes men's skincare products? Well, like two or three brands that aren't even focused on it. So, I mean, right there, you can build anything.
Shaan Puri
Would be like, "Look, Maxim trend, go!" And then you would brainstorm maybe like skin care, mastic gum, like jawline stuff.
Robert Oliver
Yeah, I like to look at **exploding topics** and I still like to look at **Amazon data**. There are different tools you can use, and you'll see searches for...
TikTok
Those things.
Shaan Puri
And do you get afraid, "Oh, somebody's already doing this," or whatever? No, it's like more validation of the idea. Then you're going to try to out... you know, out horsepower them on the marketing. Then you come up with the hooks. So, like, what would be an example of a hook for, let's say, looks maxing? Now, what's an example of the product? It would be like a gum or like a jaw thing, or do you think skincare? Which one would you go into? Let's just say gum because it's a consumable novel.
Robert Oliver
Repeat buys are probably relatively straightforward to do.
Shaan Puri
Okay, and now you have a gum. Great! We got our product. Do you want to name it as part of our improv here? Oh...
Robert Oliver
Chat GPT, yeah.
Shaan Puri
What would you prompt? Because you use AI for a...
Robert Oliver
A lot of stuff I actually do, and that's... yeah, let's do it.
Shaan Puri
Let's go on and test it.
Robert Oliver
Do it. Yeah, it's actually gotten so, so good.
Shaan Puri
Do you think the jaw angle is the trick with the gum? Or would it be breath? What do you think?
Robert Oliver
It would be... you'd call them feminine in some capacity for not having a strong...
Shaan Puri
I like how your brain went there. I have this phrase that I say, which is: "The only positioning is counter positioning." A lot of people just want to state their position, like, "Oh, we're healthy. We're good for you." But everyone is saying those same things. So, you gotta be counter. You have to have something that is the enemy, or you gotta diagnose a problem and then sell the solution. So, yeah, the only positioning is counter positioning. What you're saying is, if you're not working on your jaw, you probably have a feminine jaw.
Robert Oliver
Exactly. And if...
Shaan Puri
You can live with that if you could sleep at night with that.
Robert Oliver
Then that's for you. Okay, so I started by asking ChatGPT, "Do you understand looks maxing?" Yes, it's about small, natural tweaks. The goal is to maximize aesthetic appeal, with an emphasis on facial symmetry and overall attractiveness. I'm creating a product for jawline enhancement gum—something to be consumed every day. I like dual meanings and stuff too. I love when names have, you know, double entendres. I like things like that. So, that's where I would probably go with this. I'm looking for a clever, powerful name that has, you know, dual meaning. "Chisel" is a nice name; I feel like that's a nice name.
Shaan Puri
Is that what I gave you?
Robert Oliver
Yeah, "Chisel" is the first one. "Masticate" is chewing, but it also sounds intense. And "Chad Chew"—these are all great names, you know? Alright, I...
Shaan Puri
Like chisel, though.
Robert Oliver
**Chisel's** good. Yeah, **Chisel's** my favorite store.
Shaan Puri
Alright, so we got Chisel Gum. Yep. Now you gotta come up with how we're gonna market this. So you're gonna go to your creator army. Mhmm.
Robert Oliver
You.
Shaan Puri
Tell them what you want to do, or you just let them go now?
Robert Oliver
Go. This has been part of respecting the future, but understanding that I'm not that person anymore.
Shaan Puri
Letting go.
Robert Oliver
Yeah, exactly. And so...
Shaan Puri
Let's pretend we're those creams. We're not, so we're like, we're going to be, you know, white belts at this, whereas there's black belts. But I see videos trending on TikTok all the time about transformation, like weight loss, whatever. You could almost make it where you're not talking about a gum, obviously. It's like, you know, somebody being like, "My..." They use the trending music that people are using to...
Robert Oliver
Be the weight loss influencer. They would put them up there and highlight the different things on the facial symmetry and this and that. Then, they would look at his jawline.
Shaan Puri
Right, and why this... what you're saying, why this person is attracted. The human mind is attracted to symmetry, the golden ratio, stuff like that. You would use, like, "Oh, I'm kind of teaching you a science about why." Or you could even do, like, "Why guys don't think this guy's attractive but girls do?" Yep, and you're like, "Oh, okay, what's the difference there?" Or you could do a transformation and be like, "I did five things. I took creatine, I did this..." Yep, the third thing is I started chewing this gum daily. Honestly, I didn't believe it, but look at this! Boom, boom! And then, like, it's available on Amazon. Back to my story about, like, you know, my transformation. If you have a video like that... Yep, that was one of...
Robert Oliver
The first ones that blew up on Evil Goods was literally that this girl had hormonal acne. It was the three things that helped with that. She showed a before picture and after, and that was part of it. It just went nuclear.
Shaan Puri
Alright, so we got our hooks there. We got our brand chisel. So what was the other one you said? You're like, basically, we can fund a startup right now. We can find an operator. It's a request for operator.
Robert Oliver
Yes, luxury pet is screaming at me. Like, Louis Vuitton is doing full pop-ups of $500 dog bowls. It just shows again, it's like luxury is such an interesting world, right? Because it's just like signaling and status. What are people willing to pay? There's no luxury pet brands yet.
Shaan Puri
Did you hit it again? My initial reaction is, "Oh my God, that's so stupid! What a waste! I can't believe people are doing this." But you're saying people are doing this.
Robert Oliver

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Robert Oliver
A lot less.
Shaan Puri
Would you... So my initial hesitation would have been: can you build luxury on TikTok? Isn't TikTok kind of like, you know, it's more like a Walmart than it is like a luxury brand? But maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it's just that there are a billion people on it, and so you can't generalize like that.
Robert Oliver
And that's what I love. That's why I said, "Let's not do a disservice to the app and the platform they built." That's why I did it on Amazon with Genius. Genius is a very high-end supplement brand. We were selling, you know, we had a $130 product that was, by all intents and purposes, like luxury. People said, "Oh, that would never work on Amazon; it's a discount site." TikTok has a lot of those components in it now too. But again, you tie back to a billion people. You tie back to, I mean, my cologne's $90. So that's not cheap, right? It's not a $30 cologne. $30 colognes outsell us, but I only need to sell one of those for every three, and it's done well. So I think it's there.
Shaan Puri
And how would you, if you did this luxury thing, like... what would you do to build the brand? Because I think you study high fashion; you study like kind of the cool stuff in culture. What would you do if you were translating that to the TikTok world? What would you do for a luxury pet brand?
Robert Oliver
Do you know René Girard, like Peter Thiel's?
Shaan Puri
Yeah, yeah, like mimetic theory. Mhm.
Robert Oliver
I love that! So, I think the simple explanation is that people don't know what they want, so they want what others want. From our perspective as brand owners, influencing influencers and finding those names, I think the most straightforward way to run this is to find one of these streamers. If I could get a clip of Drake using my cologne and then give it to the creator army, we would do millions of dollars. I think you can do that in pets as well. I don't know if Kim Kardashian has a freaking poodle or whatever, but sure.
Shaan Puri
She does.
Robert Oliver
But she, you know, you don't even need that big of a name. Just someone in that space, and then you feed it to the army. I think that's the most straightforward thing, and I think it would go overnight.
Shaan Puri
Yeah, I almost wonder if you could even just use the outrage... So, like, yeah.
Robert Oliver
Of the cost of it, I was thinking that I can't believe people are...
Shaan Puri
Doing this... this is the craziest thing I've seen. Celebrities are doing this, and it makes me sick. Whatever. Some people in the... like, it'll get to so many people, and most of the comments will be negative about the idea. But it's just gonna get so much reach that some people are gonna... either just... it'll plant the seed that this exists.
Robert Oliver
Yep.
Shaan Puri
That I'm not doing it, that other people are doing it. That, hey, maybe I would do that. I do love my pet.
Robert Oliver
Yep, or even like, you could play into Louis Vuitton doing it. I think there are a lot of different ways to approach it. I just like those areas where there's that much margin to play. There's just more, and again, it ties back to human nature. We exist in a culture and a world where we've created so much abundance. Bottom line, we could afford things like universal basic income. We're automating the hell out of everything, and anything is freaking possible. With that in mind, there's really no shortage. You see some of the services that exist for billionaires; it is just the most absurd hyper... but it exists, and the people providing those do well. Isn't that like a thing he says? "Sell to people with more money" or whatever? Yeah, something like that.
Shaan Puri
One of his many genius insights is to **sell to the people with money**. However, there is an actual business framework here. If you take what the rich have and find a way to democratize it, you can build a huge business. **Uber** is a classic example of this. Rich people had private drivers. When they were done with a meeting, they would send a text, and the driver would pull up. They could get in and out without worrying about parking and gas. Uber democratized that private driver experience. Their homepage literally stated, "A private driver for everyone." That was the start of Uber Black cars. Even **Airbnb** follows this model. What is Airbnb? It's having a vacation home. It's the ability to stay in a home in places like Tahoe or in various cities. Airbnb became a service that allowed everyone access to what was once exclusive to rich people who had vacation homes. **Marquee Jets** is another example. Instead of buying a private jet for $50 million or $100 million, you could buy a fractional share and get to fly for a certain number of hours. There was a huge market of people that wanted this option.
Robert Oliver
Do that, even JSX, now probably to some extent.
Shaan Puri
Your JSX is exactly like that. So, you know, that's a bit... if you can find a way to drop the cost. Even Duolingo, like we have rich people who will hire a Mandarin tutor for their kid. But then, if you have an app that can teach your kid a foreign language in a way, it's doing the same thing. So I think that is just generally a business model. What are the mistakes people make? If somebody was to go into this, what are the common pitfalls someone could fall into that you could just save them from?
Robert Oliver
The funnel here, how they treat those affiliates, is very culture-based. I've seen brands where there's so much money being made right now. Brand owners need to be super generous because, you know, a market's a market. And right now, people are paying. You talked about the goalie challenge.
Shaan Puri
Yeah, explain this because that was in an old episode. So, explain what they were doing.
Robert Oliver
This brand comes in, and in an effort to get as many creators as possible, they put together all these prizes. For example, if you did a million dollars in sales for them in a month, I believe they'd give you a condo in Brickell or the cash equivalent, which is like $600 or something like that.
Shaan Puri
Lamborghini was the next one. It was like this rewards tier list.
Robert Oliver
Rolexes left and right and you're...
Shaan Puri
Selling goalie gummies. They just make these apple cider vinegar gummies, which are basically a health product—a kind of holistic health wellness thing. Cider vinegar has benefits for your gut and whatever. Maybe, maybe... yeah, that was the narrative at the time.
Robert Oliver
Creator said, "So, yeah."
Shaan Puri
This 22-year-old who's trying to win a condo told me that that's how the world works.
Robert Oliver
Oh man.
Shaan Puri
Do you believe in any advertising at this?
Robert Oliver
No. Uh-huh.
Shaan Puri
Once you've seen how...
Robert Oliver
The sausage is made. You're like, "There's a reason I hate supplements too." You know, I'm not launching new supplements. I mean, there are some good stuff out there, but overall, when you really peel back all the layers, a decent amount of health advice online nowadays is coming from 18-year-olds making conspiracy videos.
Shaan Puri
That's pretty wild.
Robert Oliver
It's just reality. A good brand like Goli comes in and sets the stage for how creators are being treated. Obviously, they have a lot of money, and they're trying to mess the game up for everyone else, right? They can afford to lose some money. But then, if you're a startup brand owner and you come in saying, "No, I don't want to give you 25% commission; I'm going to give you 20," that can be super off-putting. In this current era, I would say, and even in the culture from the group we own part of, it's about abundance. It's like, "Put it out there; it's going to come back." As a brand owner, bringing that mindset and accepting that we are a different generation, without infringing on others, I think that's the best thing you can do.
Shaan Puri
Right, alright. What... give me your thoughts. Just summarize. If I tuned out and I just need to hear one thing to summarize, what's your thoughts on this TikTok opportunity? Give me a little summary. Then I want to ask about some other stuff.
Robert Oliver
Millions are being printed on TikTok Shop... like, like.
Shaan Puri
What are you doing right? You're just...
Robert Oliver
Starting brands and trying to get as many... I'm trying to perfect short form content and short form content distribution, like from a brand perspective.
Shaan Puri
Why do you believe so much in short form?
Robert Oliver
Content is changing the world in front of our eyes. It's from personalities we know to songs we know. Music, even, we're hearing songs that are blowing up from this world, and that's just...
Shaan Puri
It's the future. Do we have this friend, Connor Price? Have you seen what he does on TikTok?
Robert Oliver
Wait, who is he again?
Shaan Puri
He's a rapper. A white guy rapper.
Robert Oliver
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
Shaan Puri
Yes, yes. He used to work in Ramon's warehouse, moving boxes. No shit. Then, during COVID, the warehouse shuts down. He goes home, and his wife's like, "You should put your music out there. Let's do something." Right? We're just sitting at home, and he was really shy about it. She's like, "You gotta start making content." He puts out a YouTube video, and it gets like, you know, 11 views, like most YouTube videos do. Then she had this genius idea. She's the real mastermind behind it because she was like, "Let's make a TikTok." He had the same reaction: "TikTok? That's stupid. That's not serious. I'm an artist. I'm a musician. I'm not just one of these kids dancing." What he did was start making these videos. We'll put one on the screen here so people can watch it. He created a little skit. Instead of just saying what I would have done, like a boomer, I would have been like, "Hey guys, I got a new song here," or I would just make a video of playing the song. Yeah, and guess what happens when you're scrolling through TikTok? You're swiping every three seconds, and a song starts to play that you've never heard before. You just keep swiping; it doesn't grab you right away. So instead, he started doing these funny skits where he would play three characters, almost like an Eddie Murphy movie. He would open the door, and every skit starts with him opening the door, and there's the rapper coming into the studio.
Robert Oliver
Yeah.
Shaan Puri
He's got the guy with the headphones on—that's him, as the producer. Then he has the weird brother, and the weird brother is kind of the key to making the whole thing work. So, he would walk in and he'd be like... he has one scene where he's taking a carrot and drilling holes in it. You're like, "What?" It's like the sound of a drill; it's visually weird. And they're both like, "Well, he's being weird again." Then he's like, "Let's get down to work. You wanna play that song?" Then you hear this flute playing, and they both look at the brother. He's playing the carrot flute, but it's the beat of the song. He overlaid it that way as if that was the beat. The producer's like, "Go with it, go with it." Then he starts rapping, and then the song hits. The song is almost the punchline of the skit. Yep, and dude, he became like independently—no record label—billion streams on Spotify.
Robert Oliver
Doing no marketing on Spotify, only on TikTok. If I want to summarize all of this, it almost seems dark for a second, but one of my favorite quotes is, "If you tell a lie enough times, it becomes truth." That was obviously war propaganda back in the day, but you take that idea and then think purely in terms of views, and more specifically, the cost of acquisition of views. So, you have, like, when you're a tobacco company, and you're getting doctors to promote it. You have the money to get the views and control the narrative, right? The more you can do that, it's usually a pay-to-play game. Except in these windows, when all of a sudden, an Andrew Tate bursts on the scene. It doesn't matter if what he's saying is real or not; he's getting seen a billion times a month. All of a sudden, there's a narrative being formed that he has serious impact on. These gold rush windows are when there's the ability for normal people, without multinational-level marketing budgets, to form a mainstream narrative or get a billion views on Spotify and become something. Because of these windows, we couldn't have done that. He couldn't have done that without TikTok. The old Instagram wouldn't have allowed him to go viral; there was no means of connecting.
Shaan Puri
Yes, it's this amazing circle. Like, twelve years ago, Instagram comes out. Imagine if you were like, "What are you doing all day today?" It's like, "Oh, I'm filming myself. I'm cooking at home and taking pictures of it or making videos of it."
Robert Oliver
You're a weirdo to get a job.
Shaan Puri
What are you doing? Yeah, so you go from being a weirdo wasting his time, but you were early on the platform. Now, let's say you wanted to become a food creator. It's like, "Dude, it's too saturated, man. It's impossible to win."
Robert Oliver
It's like...
Shaan Puri
But now, everybody's accepted that influencers are a thing and that they can move product. They can become rich and famous doing this. What you're saying is kind of like on TikTok. It's the same model, but instead of you becoming a famous creator, your product can become famous by putting it in the hands of talented people who are going to make all kinds of videos, taking literally like a thousand shots on goal.
Robert Oliver
A month.
Shaan Puri
And if they get the right story or the right premise, and they keep innovating on that, your product gets famous that way.
Robert Oliver
Yep.
Shaan Puri
Whereas, dude, you weren't going to be able to walk into Walmart or Target and get on the shelf. Yep, you're not even going to be able to really go onto Amazon and just rank number one in these categories because they're so competitive anymore, right? You're not going to become an influential creator on Instagram. It's harder. This is where the greenfield is. My...
Robert Oliver
My dad called me an idiot when I was pouring into Amazon. He actually questioned my sanity as a human, right? It was a crazy experience. Now, in hindsight, it's like, "God, thank God."
Shaan Puri
$30,000,000 later.
Robert Oliver
Yeah, thank God I didn't listen to my parents, you know? And that's why I admire guys like Elon. He's a good example. I think when you look at things from a very ground-up perspective and don't take the common route, there's so much arbitrage everywhere. Humans are narrative machines, and we live off that. So, common knowledge becomes whatever. Yet, technology is reshaping everything. That's why I just want to keep leaning into that. I think the more people who aren't afraid to just "send it" with that in mind, in some capacity, the more it gives others the confidence to stand up on their own and do their own thing, you know? Right.
Shaan Puri
I like that you said "send it." You have this phrase I like. So, we talk about looks maxing, and you have said this phrase before: **life maxing**. Yeah, I kind of like the philosophy, but I don't really fully know it because, you know, we've only hung out in group settings a bunch of times. What is the life maxing philosophy? Is this something that you think more people should be kind of taking as a mantra?
Robert Oliver
Yeah, I think so. I think there's a lot of existential dread in today's world. There's also a lot of us trying to...
Shaan Puri
Even amongst successful people, you mean?
Robert Oliver
Especially amongst successful people, it manifests in all sorts of weird ways. You know, look at Ryan Johnson. I'm kidding... crazy take, but love you, Brian! No, he's awesome. He really is. I think he's a good example of someone that's all in on life maxing because everyone... my thing is we have this.
Shaan Puri
He took it literally.
Robert Oliver
He did.
Shaan Puri
Yeah, lifespan maxing.
Robert Oliver
Life span maxing... but we have this blank, you know, scorecard, right? We have this finite time here on Earth. I think the more you can fill it up with things that you thoroughly enjoy, and then kind of like maxing out those stats, so to speak. We're capable of so much, and instead, we fall into this like, "Oh, I'm only gonna chase money," or "Oh, I'm only gonna do this," where living a well-rounded life is important.
Shaan Puri
What's the difference between just being well-rounded and life maxing? Are they the same thing with just a cool name, or is there a difference?
Robert Oliver
I don't see many people. It ties back to that "full sending it" thing. I don't see many people that are really like, "Yo, I'm living for this." So, what were your shower thoughts this morning?
Shaan Puri
My shower thought was that the optimal mindset for me is to be **ignorant of the past**, **realistic about the present**, and **delusional about the future**. Too many people are living in their past or they vacation there all the time. They just keep going to visit and tell themselves it's for all kinds of reasons. Maybe it's therapists telling them to go think about their childhood. Maybe they're saying, "I'm going to go learn lessons." The reality is, the more you live in your past, the less happy you are. You want to be delusional about the future. Why not? Why be realistic about the future? Because you can only, when you're a little bit delusional about the future, do you actually kind of blow your own mind. You get to do more than what you thought was reasonable. But then you've got to be realistic about the present. If you're just delusional about the present, you're like, "No, I am the best dad," but you're not.
Robert Oliver
Yeah, I am not.
Shaan Puri
Then you go nowhere, right? Oh, I'm already uber-duper successful.
Robert Oliver
Yeah, like...
Shaan Puri
Bro, your bank account's, you know, three digits right now. It's like, you gotta be realistic. Just say, "Alright, that's where I am. That's not where I'm always gonna be." Forget the past; it doesn't matter if I failed 10 times. Most of the most successful people, when you talk to them, they're like, "Yeah, for ten years, you grind it." If you ask them, "What was that like? What were you doing?" it's almost hard for them to even remember. Yep, and it's not because it was so long ago. It's because there's actually like a useful part of your brain that just blocks it out. Yeah, it's like my wife. She did natural delivery of birth like three times, and if I ask her about it, it's like her body has a mechanism that's like...
Robert Oliver
You never forgot that, though. You need to.
Shaan Puri
I never forgot. I'm traumatized. I'm like, "How could you do this to me?" The things that happened to me, man, I'm with you. I'm fainting, right? And then she's like, "Forget about it." She only remembers the good. It's like, wow, yeah, your brain gave you a survival mechanism that was actually really good for you. You don't remember how bad it was, how hard it was. I think being ignorant of the past, realistic about the present, and delusional about the future is a good motto to live by.
Robert Oliver
So, I take that there's two things I'm obsessed with: this idea of character design and that that's what I'm living in real time. I think we have the ability, when you zoom out long enough, to create literally whatever type of thing you want to be. You can truly design that. Then, you have another idea I'm obsessed with, which is Bezos's eighty-year regret minimization framework. He wants to view his deathbed, you know, how he wants as few regrets as possible. So, when you work through those two avenues, you can quite literally do anything.
Shaan Puri
So, explain the character design. I've heard of **regret minimization**, which is basically like, "If I'm dying, I want to have the least regrets possible." Therefore, today, if I have a fork in the road, I should do the one that will lead to the least regrets when I'm 80, when I'm 90, or when I'm a hundred.
Robert Oliver
Or something back to your piece: be relatively delusional about the future while being very aware of where you're at today, while pretty much disregarding everything. When I look at the music I've been working on, I remember going to a show in Puerto Rico with John Summit. I was in the booth right next to the DJ, just watching him command that crowd, the energy, and the impact. I thought, "You know, if I'm 80 years old and I didn't at least try to send it in this space, I'll regret it." Then I start thinking through the character lens of what an artist looks like and what the things I have in me are. I'm not completely disconnected from reality, but now I'm taking all of the business aspects into account: "Hey, this is a business. Hey, now the product's music. Hey, this is streaming. Hey, you know, marketing." And that's where I'm at with it.
Shaan Puri
One of the things that you're reminding me of when you're talking about, let's say, music production or getting people to remember is that whether it's marketing or music, if you have something good to say, you almost owe it to yourself. It's like, do you believe in the thing you made? The thing you have to say? Because people are very bashful about marketing. They're bashful about putting it out there. I know this because I would write things, and I wouldn't even send them to my own friends and family. I wouldn't post on social media. I wouldn't promote my product. I just kind of wanted it to be organic. When I look back at that, I'm like, "Damn, I did myself a disservice." Did I think the thing I did was good or not? If I think it was good, then I owe it to that to do marketing.
Robert Oliver
Just to send it... to fully send it... to send it.
Shaan Puri
And you know, when you talk about storytelling in music, you gotta study the art of how to get your stuff out there.
Robert Oliver
It's a phenomenal skill. It's like a crazy, crazy...
Shaan Puri
Like, that's the vehicle you put the package in the trunk, but you need the vehicle that's going to actually get it out there to the masses. It's crazy, dude. We're going to watch this video, this YouTube video right now. You just said it yourself: what you said in this video will make people millions of dollars. If all they did was just try to act on it, give it two years, and try to act on it, you will become a millionaire if you just follow what you just said. If I go look at the YouTube video stats, the retention chart is going to look like it's just a downhill slope. Most people are going to click off within thirty seconds, and then by the end of this, there's only going to be, you know, 25% of people still watching this. I mean, 75% of people clicked on this because they wanted something out of their life, and then they're not going to even stick with it enough to watch the video. Yep, but that's just the laws of nature. And with that in mind...
Robert Oliver
But with that in mind, I think this last chunk of the video, where we're talking about these stories and the ability... like the model is becoming less important. The more I understand people and tap into whatever that innate thing in all of us is, is way more important. I want to bring that out of more people because I've been through a lot of stuff in a short amount of time. I think the more I can bring that forward, the more general impact there will be. There's one of my other favorite internet clips, you know, for the Elons and like Brett Adcock. Do you have him on or not? Like, Adcock, yeah, Brett Adcock, sorry. There are those minds that are just obviously incredible in their own space. But then there's that Elon interview, and it's like, "Elon, you inspire everyone in this room. Who inspires you?" It's like, "Kanye West," of course, you know?
Shaan Puri
Is that what he said?
Robert Oliver
I remember, it's hilarious. That's the opposite side of that. Like, yeah, okay, Kanye is nuts in every way, but just that ability and desire to create and stand up for new things, and have that confidence in yourself regardless of what people say, is nothing short of not only incredible but necessary for people.
Shaan Puri
I love the "send it" attitude. I mean, I want to make merch with the "send it" thing. Also, I think you made me realize there's probably a way I used to think about it, which is well-rounded. You know, Mike Posner came on the podcast. He's a famous musician who wrote "I Took a Pill in Ibiza" and all those songs. His first song went viral, and he tells the story: "The first song went viral, I'm like, of course, that's what I do. I guess that's what I do. I put out a song, I go triple platinum." Then the second song went double platinum, then single platinum, and then no platinum. He was on the shelf. The record label was like, "It's not even worth paying to produce your music because we don't think it'll sell." But also, "You can't go do something else; you're under contract." So he was like, "Dude, I'm shit out of luck." He went back to school and started learning how to sing better. He said, "Dude, I'll just work on my craft." Then he came back, and now he's had this resurgence. He talked about how he had to look at his life and realize, "Yes, I was uber successful in my career, but I was a desert wasteland in relationships, health, and whatever." He realized that was just not success for him. I was inspired by that, and I started thinking, "Yeah, you do want it to be well-rounded." You want to be the dad, the husband. You also want to have fun, be creative, make cool stuff, and be successful in making money. But the well-rounded thing is more like a checklist. It's like, "Am I doing a sufficient amount of X, Y, and Z?" Whereas "lifemaxing" is saying, "What would it look like if I really sent it in terms of my fitness?" Like, "Yeah, I'm going to work out anyway, but I know you do Muay Thai, right?" You're like, "Yep, I'm going to work out for an hour anyway. What could I do that makes me... what would be full send on this workout?"
Robert Oliver
Dramatically better. That's a great example. It's like, two years ago, I couldn't fight at all, and now I feel pretty comfortable in there with a lot of people, right? That aren't named Jon Jones, you know? But just taking things seriously and really putting that notch on your belt. It's like now music or even learning Spanish is something that I'm going to do, and I'm going to take it very seriously. It's not going to be "I'm half-learning Spanish." I'm going to be fluent in it, you know?
Shaan Puri
You do these one at a time, or how do you... That's what I'm discovering: not to stretch yourself to fit.
Robert Oliver
That's what I'm discovering. It's like... how much? I like that healthy balance of pushing yourself. We are capable of so much more than we give ourselves credit for. I've already seen that, but there is some line. I don't have a good answer for that, but I'm trying to also be an open book and show it all in real time. I want you to look back at my fighting clips from two years ago and I want you to see the me... like all of it. I want to be an open story that is ongoing and constantly iterating.
Shaan Puri
So this year, Jesse Itzler came on the podcast and gave this idea of a **misogi**. He's like, "Oh, this is a Japanese tradition," and the American translation or the way he translated the Japanese idea is **one grand challenge a year**. But specifically, it's about doing something so grand that it changes you. For him, it was like he ran this hundred-mile race. Every year, he picks a different one. One year, it was to write a book. He's been doing this for like fifteen years or so, and I was like, "Damn, I never really do something like that." I have New Year's resolutions and things I want to improve about myself, but I never really put out the **misogi**, the grand challenge for the year. So I made one. I was like, "Alright, I want to..." and I like that it's one because I was...
Robert Oliver
Oh, I want to do this and this and this.
Shaan Puri
And all that was going to do was guarantee none of them happen.
Robert Oliver
Yep.
Shaan Puri
So, alright, what's the one for this year? I was like, I would love to be... I wanna have more fun in my life. I have fun playing basketball, I have fun doing the podcast, and I have fun in business with my kids. Where can I dial up fun? I was like, I wanna be able to jam out with music because music is like its own little magic potion. Music makes you feel good in thirteen seconds. I can play a song and change your mood in thirteen seconds. There's not much I could say to you that's gonna do that, like change your mood for the better. So, I was like, alright, I wanna be able to jam out on a piano. But then I was like, alright, what's the life-maxing version of this? Not only am I gonna learn piano, but I'm gonna get good. I'm gonna be able to jam out to any song I want on the piano. That's gonna be my mission. Two, what if I could also teach my daughter? She's five. I was like, what if she could do it with me? Now I'm getting dad points while I'm getting piano points at the same time. Those synergies tie it all together. Oh, it's integration! I'm not choosing between family or my piano hobby; it's both. So, she comes with me to every single lesson. She begs me to do piano now every night. I'm like, okay, that's cool. Then I was like, alright, what would be like the max-out, the full-send version of this? If I really was to send it, what would I do? At first, I was like, would I make a song? Would I perform at a theater? I felt like that's kinda playing somebody else's game. So, I think a key part is to pick what's real for you. Don't just take somebody else's scorecard and be like, "That's how I'm gonna be judging myself." I had this idea from my cousin: go play a recital at an old folks' home. I was like, oh, that'd be just like more fun.
Robert Oliver
Like that.

Would just be more fun for me, more meaningful for me, versus like posting it online and getting a bunch of views or performing it in front of other people. It's like, dude, go to this place where I've been to a bunch of senior centers. Not a lot is happening there. I could go be their Kanye because there's nobody else there. Yeah, absolutely. For me, that would be meaningful. I would make other people's day brighter if I did that. So, I was like, to me, that was a real learning lesson of how to choose these side quests, how to choose these missions, these one-year challenges in a way that I'm going to use now going forward. Absolutely, no.

No, I think you hit the nail on the head with being hyper-individualized. My life maxing scorecard is not yours, and it shouldn't be. We're all drawn to different things, and I think keeping it individual is important. My main framework is: don't let anyone else dictate it for you, or don't let anyone tell you what you can't be or can't do.
Shaan Puri
Right, what's yours? Like, what does that scorecard look like for you?
Robert Oliver
So, I'm like, Muay Thai is starting to take a back burner. I'm putting being a dad at the top of that, which has been a reshuffling of everything. I'm learning what it means to be present as an individual, and that means way less phone time. This inherently means that some of the other pieces start to crumble, but the beautiful part of this is that when you put your priorities in place, things start to handle themselves. All of a sudden, you start thinking smarter, just naturally. Like, okay, that still has to get done, so I have to trust my team for that and this and that. So, that's at the top of it. The music is the second piece, and then still the other... you know, it's like I'm taking content as one of these things now. Just from a storytelling perspective, some of the stuff I'm going to do on YouTube, I think is going to be...
Shaan Puri
Well, let's talk about content real quick. When I first met you through a mutual friend, you showed up and you always have a different, like, crazy outfit on. Somebody was like, "Oh, you gotta check out his Instagram." So I go, and I was like, "Bro, I was having a great conversation with you." Then I went to your Instagram and I thought, "Not a guy I would ever talk to." Your brand name was like "The Genius CEO." Every video was like Dan Bilzerian meets Instagram meets dropshipper.
Robert Oliver
You know, it was...
Shaan Puri
Like it.
Robert Oliver
It was.
Shaan Puri
Like, oh man, this guy is selling courses and every video is over the top. He's talking about how you can make millions instantly. It had a "get rich quick" vibe. But when I met you, I was like, "Dude, you..." and you were like, "I'm like, you're like, it's an experiment. I'm intentionally turning that knob up that way because I want to see what happens."
Robert Oliver
You're.
Shaan Puri
At the time, I think now you're making a shift. But could you just describe what you did there? Because once I met you, I was like, "Oh, that's he created a character." So, I was like, "That's actually respectable in a way."
Robert Oliver
I’m huge on one of my core principles, which is **intense ownership** of oneself. After I sold my business, Genius, and had my first daughter, I became really frustrated with the world. It started to feel like a coping mechanism. You know, other people have weird ways of ducking ownership and responsibility, disconnecting from their own unhappiness. I remember thinking, "Oh, I don’t like where the world’s headed." I could either sit there and keep crying about it, or I could try to have some influence or make a dent in it. That’s what kind of drew me to **intentional social media**. I had tried to create some cool health content. I wasn’t going full Brian Johnson, but I was doing Dave Asprey-level stuff like hyperbaric chambers and red light therapy about seven or eight years ago. Literally, nobody cared. In hindsight, it was...
Shaan Puri
Guy was finishing last.
Robert Oliver
Yeah, and in hindsight, I didn't know how to make the content yet. But I saw this clear formula: "Oh my god, if I post a car, like I am actually rich. I still have a business." If you post a car or a watch or whatever, people respond. As that started to work, I began doubling down on those things. It wasn't until you kind of have to play the game to change the game a little bit. That was my opinion. That's when you met me, kind of in that wave where I was pseudo-relevant, even if maybe not in the right lens. But until you have learned those skills and learned to develop a platform, then literally nobody cares. Like, nice guys do finish last. So I guess that's just been my personal evolution. It's been fun because I'll be the first to say I got way too far into that stuff. I got lost in it. That actually does happen. Ben, your partner, flagged that for me like seven or eight months ago in a really casual Ben way, but...
Shaan Puri
Ben's nonconfrontational. What did he say to you?
Robert Oliver
It was just something along the lines of, "Well, if you do that stuff enough, don't you start to kind of believe it or become it?" That stuck with me. I don't think he knows that it stuck with me. I don't even know if he remembers he said that, but there were a lot of little things like that that prompted...
Shaan Puri
Me, to stop an actor, you stay in character because you're doing it for the role. But then at some point, it's method acting.
Robert Oliver
Yeah, you lose.
Shaan Puri
Yourself in the... you'll get lost in the song.
Robert Oliver
And actually, that happened to me. Unfortunately, a lot of the things I was leaning into do make you look cool or whatever. So now there's this audience that looks up to you in a very specific light. You have two choices: you can either keep down the same path or you can say, "Whoops, this is what I actually am." I feel like I've separated a lot of the negative parts. Well, it's like I love fashion. I love design. I genuinely do. I think it's about individualism. I think there's like, you know...
Shaan Puri
Can we do the fashion? Okay, so here's me. I have Nike shoes. It should've been just New Balance to go full dad mode. I'm wearing sweatpants and a plain black shirt. Those Kobes though... No, these are not Kobes. These are $90 Nikes. I just like this color of green. So let's go head to toe. Teach me what you got on here.
Robert Oliver
San Francisco, this is full, and I love it.
Shaan Puri
I got matching socks today. That's only because I knew I had to step my game up for you. Normally, it'd be mismatched socks. It'd be more sweatpants or Lululemon at least. And then, like, this might be my daughter's, but I was like, "Oh, hold on, he's gonna have hella accessories. Let me come strong with the..."
Robert Oliver
The rest accessories than usual. So, let's start with the wrist. How much?
Shaan Puri
Do you think this is... you start with the wrist? Is that like part of the fashion you build around this?
Robert Oliver
I don't know... I want to talk about Louis Vuitton, so...
Shaan Puri
That looks fancy to me. Alright, my honest guess would have been that that's a $20,000 watch.
Robert Oliver
This is a vintage Oakley from the nineties, and it was like $3,500.
Shaan Puri
Okay.
Robert Oliver
So, I don't believe that expense and cost are the same. I have some expensive stuff, but I think it's way cooler to put together unique kinds of items. This shirt is from a gentleman whose brand is Erl. I can't pronounce his name, but he's the head photographer for Vogue, and he did all of Kendrick Lamar's work. Again, it's not super expensive, but it's very on the come up. The jeans were from Kanye. This is probably not cheap—around $3,300 or something—but not mind-blowing. Kanye's Free Larry Hoover tour with Drake had these jeans, and they were probably around $150.
Shaan Puri
Like the turbo.
Robert Oliver
Box is not expensive. Louis Vuitton boots, which were expensive, are $2,500. I love what Pharrell is one of my business idols. I think there's a huge gap between artistry, culture, and actual business. Pharrell has that quote: "Creativity without business is victimization, and business without creativity is just dumb." I think him stepping into the head of Louis Vuitton, a brand I would typically never wear or care about, is the perfect example of those two things merging: creativity with meaningful enterprise. Bernard Arnault is one of the top three richest people because of that. Alright, I got...
Shaan Puri
I got a little bit cooler. I don't think I could pull it off.
Robert Oliver
I think.
Shaan Puri
You could pull it off, but maybe... I don't know. You gotta give me like the dad-baby steps version of things. I'm gonna start at the wrist, take it simple, and then we'll go from there. Actually, I should just show up for... We should have done a thing where it's like, I don't know if you've seen Rick Glassman. He does these interviews where he does a podcast, but he'll go and then it'll cut and they'll switch outfits. Oh, that's funny! It's so funny when they do stuff like that. We'll just pretend I did that.
Robert Oliver
That's awesome.
Shaan Puri
Rob, thanks for coming on, man. Everybody should find you, Rob the Bank, which is one of the greatest handles of all time. Thank you for that! I'm well... you were already saying it. I didn't come up with it, but I was like, "Dude, that..."
Robert Oliver
Should be.
Shaan Puri
Your handle better. That should be your brand. What is this? The genius CEO? No, no, no, you should...
Robert Oliver
Be robbed the bank and just wait. Full disclaimer, before we... you know, my last company was the Genius Brand.
Shaan Puri
So, I didn't just... you know, it just looked bad.
Robert Oliver
Thank you for having me. Seriously, this means the world, and I really appreciate it.
Shaan Puri
Awesome! Thanks for doing it.
