76% of NVIDIA employees are now millionaires.

1 in 3 has over $20 million.

Here's why that matters for your business:


1. The obvious takeaway

When you give people a piece of the pie, they work like owners.

Not like employees.

NVIDIA didn't create millionaires by accident. 

They structured compensation so everyone wins when the company wins.

• Stock options. 
• Equity. 
• Real ownership.

When your te,am gets rich if the company succeeds, they're incentivized to make the company succeed.


2. Why most businesses get this wrong

Most businesses only pay a salary or an hourly rate
.
Employee shows up, does the work, and goes home.

No skin in the game. No upside if things go well.

So they don't think like owners. 

They think like employees.

"Not my problem" becomes the default mindset.


3. How to apply this

You don't need to make everyone a millionaire.

But you need to give them upside when things go well.

• Revenue share on clients they manage
• Bonuses tied to company performance
• Equity if they're early employees.

Something that makes them care about the outcome, not just the hours worked.


4. What this creates

When people have equity, they think differently.

They care about client retention because it affects their payout.
They find efficiencies because waste hurts their bottom line.
They recruit better talent because they want the company to grow.

You stop being the only one who cares.


5. The shift

I started doing this at my company too.

Team members get:

• Revenue share deals
• Bonuses
• Quarterly competitions with rewards

As a result, my team started treating clients like their own business.

• Churn dropped.
• Quality went up.
• I stopped being the only one thinking long-term.


6. The real lesson

NVIDIA didn't create the best AI chips because they had the smartest people.

They created them because the smartest people were financially invested in the outcome.

Compensation isn't just about paying people.

It's about aligning incentives so everyone pulls in the same direction.

Stop paying for time. Start paying for results.

Give your team a reason to care as much as you do.

Last Month, one of our clients collected $141,366 on LinkedIn. This Month, we’re tracking to do even more. One script. One strategy. Zero automation. 

Open article: Most people blow it in the first message. Here's what actually works... by Marcos Ruiz • 4 min read

Most people blow it in the first message. Here's what actually works...

My 𝕏 account generates $100,000+ every single month.

I only have 26,000 followers.

Here's how I cracked the monetization code in 3 years:


Most people think you need a million followers to make real money on social media.

That's complete BS.

I built a 7-figure ghostwriting agency with a "small" audience because I focused on the one metric everyone ignores: revenue per follower.

Here's the math:


Every 1,000 new followers should = $20,000 minimum.

The breakdown:

• 25 calls booked (40:1 follower-to-call ratio)
• 20 shows (80% show rate)
• 5 closes (25% close rate)
• $5K average ticket = $25K revenue

We call this Personal Brand Math.

It's so reliable, I can predict client revenue within 10% accuracy.


But the formula only works if you have the right content strategy.

You need all 5 pillars working together.

I use the PESTO framework with every client:

Personal - your story, behind-the-scenes
Expertise - frameworks, how-tos
Social proof - case studies, results
Trending - current events with your spin
Opinions - contrarian takes that get engagement

Most accounts only post Expertise content and wonder why they can't monetize.

You need all 5.


When growing: 40% Opinions, 30% Trending, 20% Expertise, 10% Personal.

When monetizing: 30% Social Proof, 30% Expertise, 20% Personal, 20% Opinions/Trending.

Here's what changed everything for me:


Summer 2022, I was broke again after another failed venture.

I'd spent 3 years burning Army paychecks on business models that didn't work:

• NFTs
• Day trading
• Dropshipping
• Amazon automation

Lost six figures in the process.

Then it hit me…


I'd been spending 6-8 hours daily on Twitter since 2011.

I knew exactly what went viral, how accounts grew, what content worked.

Instead of learning another business model, I thought: "What if I just help clients do what I already know?"


For the first time, I leveraged my actual skills instead of chasing the next shiny object.

The results:

• Late 2022: First $10K month
• December 2022: $20K month
• Early 2023: $30K, $40K, $50K months
• Today: $150K+ months, 80% referrals

All with under 30K followers.

Because follower count doesn't matter as much as follower quality.

The math will handle the rest.


We've now generated $10M+ for clients using this exact system.

And you can use it too.

If this was helpful…

Shoot me a follow me for more.

My biggest fear was never being broke…

It was waking up at 45 for a job I hate.

Here's the blueprint I followed to make sure that never happens:

1. I gave myself a deadline

I signed a 6-year Army contract knowing it was a ticking clock.

By year 5, I had 1 year left to figure it out or get a real job.

That pressure forced me to stop treating business like a hobby.

2. I used my safety net to take risks

Every Army paycheck went straight into the next business idea.

NFTs, day trading, dropshipping, Amazon automation.

All of them failed. But I kept swinging because I had runway to experiment.

3. I stopped chasing shiny objects

For years I jumped from opportunity to opportunity thinking "this one will be different."

The truth? They all work. I just quit too early every time.

The moment I committed to one thing, everything changed.

4. I leaned into what I already knew

I'd been on Twitter 6-8 hours a day since 2011.

Instead of learning something new, I finally monetized what I'd already mastered.

Your unfair advantage is usually hiding in plain sight.

5. I picked freedom over comfort

A corporate job would've been the safe choice.

Steady paycheck. Clear path. Zero risk.

But I knew if I took that route, I'd spend the rest of my life wondering "what if."

6. I built something that doesn't need me

Solopreneurship sounds sexy until you realize you've just built yourself a job.

I wanted a business that runs without me. That meant building a team and real systems.

Now I have both freedom and income.

7. I committed to 1% better every day

No home runs. No overnight success.

Just small improvements compounding over years.

That mindset took me from $0 to a 7-figure agency with a team of 10.

The goal was never to get rich.

It was to never be trapped.

If you have any questions, let me know below.

+ If you want to learn how to build a viral, profitable Personal Brand

Shoot me a follow.

I’m 28.

I run a 7-figure ghostwriting agency.

But 5 years ago, I was:

• Broke in a NYC studio apartment
• Burning every Army paycheck on failed businesses
• Watching my bank account hit $0 over and over

Here are the 7 mindset shifts that changed my life:


1. Treat business like a video game

I grew up gaming 12 hours a day. Skyrim, Call of Duty, FIFA.

When I finally applied that same mindset to business, everything changed.


Money became how I kept score. Growth became my main quest. Building a team became my new guild.

You can't level up every skill at once. Pick one thing and grind it to level 100.


2. You only fail when you quit

I failed at NFTs, day trading, dropshipping, affiliate marketing, Amazon PPC, and two other agencies before The Birdhouse worked.

Most people quit after 2-3 failures.

I was on attempt 8+.

The only difference between me and everyone who gave up? I kept showing up.


3. Play to your natural strengths

I'm an INFP. My strengths are writing and creative work.

I spent years forcing myself into business models that didn't match my abilities.

The moment I started a content agency, everything clicked.

Take a personality test. Figure out what you're naturally good at. Then double down on it.


4. Discipline = Freedom

Jocko's book changed how I think about everything.

Most failed entrepreneurs get shiny object syndrome. They see the next opportunity and think their current thing is broken.

But the truth is everything works if you stick with it long enough.

The right inputs over a long time horizon will always get you the outcome you're looking for.


5. Leverage what you already know

I spent 6-8 hours daily on Twitter since 2011.

Instead of learning another business model from scratch, I finally asked myself: "What if I just did this for other people?"

Your "wasted time" might be your biggest asset.

Stop chasing new models. Start monetizing what you already understand better than most.


6. Surround yourself with people ahead of you

I've spent $200K+ on masterminds, coaching, and consulting.

I can't point to a single actionable change from the last few months, yet we've nearly doubled revenue.

It's like you absorb success by proximity.

When you're level zero, you can't provide value. So go negative. 

Pay people. Become their star student. Get shown off as a case study.


7. Focus on impact over everything

The real shift happened when I stopped chasing revenue and started obsessing over client results.

When you make someone's business measurably better, everything else takes care of itself.

Word spreads. Referrals come in. Growth becomes inevitable.

80% of our business now comes from referrals. That only happens when you actually deliver.


These 7 mindset shifts took me from $0 to 7-figures in 3 years.

Not because I'm smarter or more talented than anyone else.

I just didn't give myself permission to quit.

I’ve been on X since 2011.

If I were starting my personal brand from scratch in 2026…

Here are the 10 things I’d do differently to hit $100K/month:


1. Start with a high-ticket offer from day one

I wasted years chasing low-ticket digital products.

The math just doesn't work.

Instead: 

Start with $5K+ coaching or consulting. You only need 20 clients per year at that price to hit $100K.


2. Pick ONE niche and go all in

I bounced between NFTs, day trading, dropshipping, and a dozen other things.

Every pivot reset my progress to zero.

The creators hitting $100K/month picked one thing and stuck with it for 2-3 years minimum.


3. DM every single new follower

This sounds basic, but most people skip it.

When someone follows you, they're requesting more information.

Don't hide what you sell. Your audience will respect you more for being upfront.


4. Use the PESTO framework for content

Most creators only post expertise content and wonder why they're boring.

Mix it up:

• Personal (builds connection)
• Expertise (shows authority)
• Social Proof (builds trust)
• Trending (gets reach)
• Opinions (creates engagement)

Balance is everything.


5. Track the numbers that actually matter

Forget vanity metrics.

The only numbers that matter:

• Follower-to-call ratio (aim for 40:1)
• Show rate (aim for 80%+)
• Close rate (aim for 25%+)

1,000 new followers should = $20,000 minimum.

If your math doesn't work, fix your funnel.


6. Build on multiple platforms from the start

I was X-only for too long.

The brands that survive algorithm changes post across X, LinkedIn, and Threads consistently.

Same content. Different algorithms. 3x the shots on goal.


7. Create your own frameworks

Don't just teach other people's methods.

We created:

• PESTO content pillars
• Personal Brand Math
• Follower-to-revenue ratios

This is what separates you from everyone else regurgitating the same advice.


8. Invest in networking aggressively

Every time I join a mastermind or fly out to an event, I get clients.

80% of our business now comes from referrals.

That only happens when people in your industry actually know who you are.


9. Post your real numbers even when they're small

I used to be embarrassed about early wins.

"Just signed client #5" felt insignificant.

But those followers watched the entire climb to $2M/year.

When I say we've generated $10M+ for clients now, they believe it because they watched it happen.


10. Treat content like a skill, not a lottery ticket

Content creation is a skill issue.

Everyone looks terrible when they first start.

The solution isn't to wait until you're "ready." 

It's to get more reps in.

These 10 things took me 5+ years and dozens of failed businesses to figure out.

Could've gotten here in half the time if I knew what to do from the start.

Hope this saves you some of the lessons I had to learn the hard way.

Dear 23-year-old me,

You're about to lose money on NFTs, day trading, and Amazon automation

Don't panic

That "stable job" path you're considering? Say no

The ghostwriting thing you saw on Twitter? Do it

In 4 years you'll have a 7-figure agency

You'll travel the world

You'll build a team you actually enjoy working with

The scary decision is the right one

Trust yourself

– 27-year-old you

The math that changed my business:

• 1,000 new followers per month
• 40:1 follower-to-call ratio
• 25 calls booked
• 80% show rate = 20 live calls
• 25% close rate = 5 new clients
• $5K average ticket = $25,000/month

But here's where it gets better:

• DM every new follower (warm outreach)
• Builds relationship before the call
• Shows up pre-sold on you
• Reduces objections on calls
• Referrals start compounding

Outcome:

• Closing easier deals
• Getting referrals monthly
• Building real relationships
• Revenue compounds over time

12 months from now: completely different business.

No ads. No cold outreach. No begging for attention.

Timothée Chalamet just broke A24's all-time box office record.

Then receieved 3 Oscar nominations.

The youngest actor to do that since 1954.

Not with ads.
Not with trailers.

Here's exactly how he did it (+ why it's the future of advertising):


Some context.

Marty Supreme is an indie film about ping pong in 1950s New York.

No franchise. No superhero. No sequel.

On paper, this movie shouldn't work.

It's already crossed $72M+ at the box office.


A24 didn't market the movie.

They marketed Timothée Chalamet.

The campaign wasn't "come see this film."
It was "come see what Timmy does next."

His personal brand became the product.


He committed to 128 appearances in 96 hours.

Not boring press junkets.

Viral moments designed to spread.

Most actors do the bare minimum and disappear.

He went all in.


The tactics were insane:

• Flew an orange blimp over LA
• Put his face on Wheaties boxes
• Created a $250 windbreaker that sold out instantly
• Stood on top of The Sphere in Vegas
• Posted a fake "leaked" marketing meeting that went viral

Every touchpoint was shareable content.


The real genius?

He made an 18-minute video mocking his own marketing campaign.

Pitched ideas like "paint the Statue of Liberty orange."

Then A24 actually did some of the ideas.

He turned promotion into entertainment.


The results:

• Best per-theater average since La La Land (2016)
• Fastest-selling presale in A24 history
• $875K opening weekend from just 6 screens
• Critics Choice Award for Best Actor

The personal brand drove the product. Not the other way around.


This is the playbook for the next decade.

Audiences don't want more ads.

They want moments.

They want to feel like something is happening, not like they're being sold to.

Chalamet understood this better than any marketing team could.


The lesson for your business:

You ARE your marketing.

Your content is your advertising.

Your personality is your differentiation.

Your audience is your distribution.

Stop separating "marketing" from "showing up."

They're the same thing now.


A MrBeast video sponsorship gets the same eyeballs as a Super Bowl ad.

Personal brands are the new advertising.

Whether you're selling movies, courses, or consulting, the game is the same.

Build the brand, and the product sells itself.


What are your thoughts on this?

Let me know below. 

+ Follow me for more.

POV: your personal brand just crossed $100K/month because you finally mastered these 7 things:

1. The math

You stopped guessing and started tracking.

Every 1,000 followers = 20 sales calls at a 50:1 ratio.

80% show rate. 25% close rate. $5-10K offer.

The math became so reliable you could predict revenue within 10% accuracy.

2. The PESTO framework

You stopped posting random content and started being strategic.

• Personal (your story builds connection)
• Expertise (your knowledge builds authority)
• Social Proof (your results build trust)
• Trending (current events build reach)
• Opinions (your takes build engagement)

All 5 working together. Not just one or two.

3. The DM system

You realized followers mean nothing without a conversion system.

Every new follower gets a welcome DM.

Not a pitch. A conversation.

You stopped hiding what you sell and your audience respected you more for it.

4. The funnel

You understood that every piece of content is part of a system:

Viral content → Profile visits → Followers → DMs → Sales calls → Revenue

Most people skip steps and wonder why nothing converts.

You didn't.

5. The consistency

You stopped chasing viral moments and focused on showing up daily.

The flywheel effect kicked in around month 3-4.

Content → Followers → Clients → Case Studies → More Content

Most people quit before then. You didn't.

6. The personal in personal brand

You stopped hiding behind pure expertise content.

You shared your story, your failures, your behind-the-scenes.

People don't just buy your product. They buy you.

That's what separated you from every other account in your niche.

7. The team

You accepted that 99% of 7-figure personal brands have a team behind it.

You couldn't do it alone at scale. And you stopped trying.

More capacity. More expertise. More output.

That's when everything compounded.

This is the exact system we've used to help clients generate $10M+.

If you want to implement it yourself, follow me @itsmarcosruiz for more tips like this.

The 5 levels of personal branding:

Level 1: Posting randomly with no strategy

• You post when you feel like it
• No tracking, no metrics, no system
• Wonder why nothing is working

Level 2: Posting consistently but still no real system

• You're showing up every day
• But there's no strategy behind the content
• Growth is slow and frustrating

Level 3: Using content frameworks and tracking metrics

• You have a system (like PESTO)
• You know your follower-to-call ratio
• Revenue starts becoming predictable

Level 4: Building a team to scale content and DMs

• You're no longer doing everything yourself
• Writers, setters, and systems working together
• $50K-$100K months become possible

Level 5: Your brand generates referrals faster than you can take calls

• 80% of your business comes inbound
• You're turning down more clients than you accept
• The flywheel is spinning on its own

Most people are stuck between levels 1 and 2

Level 3 is where the sales starts flowing

Level 4-5 is where you scale

Full guide: how to create your own luck...

A few people have called me lucky over the years, and it always repulsed me.

Not because they’re necessarily wrong. 

If you’re reading this with access to technology, you’re already lucky compared to many.

But 90% of people think luck is why others succeed when that’s just not the case.

“Luck” is putting yourself in positions where opportunity can find you (and being ready when it does).

If you feel like opportunity eludes you, this is for you.

1. Understand What Luck Actually Is

Luck isn’t random. It’s perseverance meeting innovation.

When I started my business in 2022 I:
• DM’d hundreds daily
• Posted 2–3x per day
• Built underground communities
• Showed up consistently

Then opportunity hit:
• Elon acquired Twitter
• A founder replied to a bad DM
• A tweet went viral

That’s positioning, not luck.

2. Break Invisible Rules

Most rules don’t exist:
• “You can’t DM strangers.”
• “You need 10K followers to charge premium.”
• “Personal brands take years.”

The winners don’t follow best practices... they create them. Playing safe doesn’t lead to innovation.

3. Experiment Relentlessly

One success can pay for 1,000 failures.

Each week ask:

• What’s trending in my industry?
• What can I borrow from other industries?
• What haven’t I seen being done?

Test the “impossible.” Fail fast. The wins become systems.

4. Question Everything

The belief in luck makes people passive.

Question assumptions and you stop waiting.

5. Never Quit

My only real advantage? I didn’t quit for 6–7 years.

I failed at NFTs, day trading, dropshipping, affiliate marketing, and more. The breakthrough came when I leveraged what I already knew instead of chasing shiny objects.

You only truly fail if you quit.

6. Put Yourself in the Room

A $50/month community taught me the ghostwriting offer that became a 7-figure agency. Best ROI of my life.

Surround yourself with people 5–10x ahead of you. Proximity accelerates growth.

Bottom Line:

I don’t believe in luck.

I believe in perseverance and innovation.

Most people wait for things to happen.

You have to make them happen.

Put in the right inputs long enough, and the outcomes follow.

Go create your own luck.

7 lessons from 6 years in the Army National Guard that I use in business:

1. Trust but verify

• Have faith that your team will do what they say
• But always confirm the work got done
• As a leader, the task is YOUR responsibility

2. Semper Gumby (Always flexible)

• Software breaks, bugs pop up, clients leave
• The plan never survives first contact
• Adaptability is a superpower

3. Attention to detail

• A single typo or missed deadline can cost you a client
• In the military, it could cost you your life
• Small details matter more than people think

4. Chain of command

• You need operators AND leaders as you grow
• Clear structure gives you bandwidth to move forward
• Train both or you'll be stuck doing everything

5. Layer 1 troubleshooting

• When something breaks, check the basics first
• Forgot to press send? Forgot to plug something in?
• 50% of problems are solved at the most basic level

6. Physical standards

• You can't lead if you're falling apart
• Working behind a computer all day requires a physical outlet
• This is why I train jiu-jitsu

7. The mission comes first

• Personal feelings don't override the objective
• Successful teams put the goal above individual egos
• This is how you build something bigger than yourself

The military didn't teach me how to make money

But it taught me how to build discipline, lead teams, and stay calm when things fall apart

Those skills transfer to everything

This system will transform even the most burnt-out coach into a $100K/month business owner with a full calendar.

How to build a personal brand that actually makes money:

Most people have it backwards. They chase followers, impressions, and viral moments. Then wonder why their bank account doesn't reflect their "growth."

Here's what actually works:

1. Understand the math first

Figure out your follower to sales call ratio

for example: Every 1,000 followers should equal roughly 20 sales calls. If you're not hitting that ratio, you don't have an audience problem. You have a conversion problem.

2. Your content needs a job

Each post should do one of five things:

• Build trust (social proof)
• Show expertise (how-tos)
• Create connection (personal stories)
• Expand reach (trends)
• Spark conversation (opinions)

Random posting gets random results.

3. DMs are where money is made

Do not rely on link clicks.

It’s a fools errand.

Every new follower is an invitation to start a conversation. You're not being "salesy" by reaching out. You're being helpful to people who already raised their hand.

Pro tip: Make offers on the timeline that prompt people to DM you first.

4. Stop hiding what you sell

Your audience will respect you more for being upfront about monetization. The sneaky sell is what actually hurts your brand. Transparency builds trust.

5. Build a system, not a content habit

Viral content → Profile visits → Followers → DMs → Sales calls → Revenue

Most people skip steps and wonder why their offers don't convert. The system is the strategy.

6. Revenue is the only metric that matters

Followers don't pay bills. Impressions don't pay bills. 

A personal brand that generates consistent sales calls and closes them?

That's the game.

Shoot me a follow.

People always ask me: "What separates profitable personal brands from broke ones?"

Here's my answer:

• They take strong stances that alienate some people
• They take strong stances that make people feel heard
• They monetize from day one instead of waiting for "the right time"
• They track follower-to-call ratio, not just follower count
• They post social proof weekly to build trust
• They have a conversion mechanism, not just content strategy
• They optimize for revenue, not vanity metrics
• They own one category before expanding
• They create frameworks people associate with their name
• They raise prices as demand increases
• They treat their personal brand as a business asset
• They hire and systematize instead falling for the ‘solopreneur’ death trap

The difference between a hobby and a business is monetization.

- Basketball court
- Beach volleyball court
- (I think) 20 bedrooms
- A gym
- Heliport
- Ping pong table
- Pool table
- Multiple lounges looking at the ocean
- A pool
- Another pool
- A fridge that his employees kept fully stocked with cold coconuts.
- PEELED cold coconuts. With a machete.

That day I learned that marlins are extremely strong. If it weren't for my 200lb dad muscling it out then I would 100% get yanked off the boat.

That day I learned that a marlin's skin is only smooth when felt in one direction. If you move it in the opposite direction you are for sure getting cut. It's like sandpaper but with knives.

He would let me, the 12 year old, ride the 4x4 motorbike to the beach. It was quite hilly so if you went real fast you could even catch some airtime.

He would hire a massage lady for the full day so anyone could get one if they wanted to.

Uncle Ron was blessed.

But he also knew how to be blessed.

He knew how to spend the money. How to use money to get nice things, experiences and bless others. He was just as good at enjoying it as he was at making it.

Uncle Ron taught me that being blessed is not just a state.

It's the start of a new skill.

Being blessed isn't the end.

One must also learn how to be blessed.

I might text Uncle Ron one of these days and show him the villa. Tell him about the wedding and the Euro trips I took with my brother, my parents and Abuelita.

I want him to know that marlin fishing was not the only thing he taught me.
