The uncomfortable truth about why your content isn't going viral

Want to know why some personal brands explode on 𝕏 while others struggle for months with zero traction?

It's not what you think.

After launching over 30 personal brands that have generated 8-figures in revenue, I've noticed a pattern that separates the winners from everyone else:

The ones who blow up aren't just creating better content—they're creating DIFFERENT content.

One of our clients went from 2K to 22K followers in just 90 days by doing something counterintuitive:

He stopped trying to say what everyone else was saying better, and started saying what no one else was saying at all.

Here's the hard truth about virality in 2025:

1. Your "high-quality thread" about the same topics everyone covers won't cut through the noise

2. Your perfectly designed carousel post will get buried if it doesn't trigger an emotional response

3. Your "expert tips" mean nothing if they don't challenge conventional wisdom

The market doesn't reward quality alone—it rewards PATTERN INTERRUPTION.

Look at the last 5 personal brands that exploded in your space.

I guarantee they all have one thing in common: they're saying something that makes people stop scrolling and think, "Wait, what?"

Whether it's a controversial take, a counterintuitive strategy, or an unpopular opinion—they've found their unique angle that no one else is talking about.

This is why most personal brands fail. They're trying to be better versions of what already exists instead of being the ONLY version of something new.

On Wednesday, I'm going to share the exact framework we use to find these unique angles for our clients.

Until then, ask yourself this: "What am I saying that NO ONE else in my space is saying?"

Be honest with yourself.

Onwards,

Marcos
