0011: ft. DoodyBeard - Standing out from the crowd at Cons!

The Mike James Content Experience

Welcome back, Are you visiting Twitch con this year? if so, Doodybeard's journey could be an amazing episode to listen to and take notes! Doody used to play in a band. This taught him lessons about expressing himself and building his brand.
When you attend a con the go-to easy handout is a business card, yet, like streaming, everyone else is already handing them out! This just turns into a competition to make sure you not only give each and every meeting your best personality but also design your cards to 'stand out'
Doody explains how you can simply remove the cards and utilize other hand-outs such as stickers, pins and other freebies that will give the receiver a little bit more.
They'll go home and stick the sticker somewhere and when people question it "oh that's from someone named Doodybeard, just gave me it at a con". Doesn't that sound better than "I got all these business cards, I'll put them in the cupboard for now...".
doody also goes on to tell us about the mistakes hes made growing his stream such as the common 'follow 4 follow' or otherwise known as 'f4f' or 's4s' which relies on two people lurking each others streams and not becoming invested into the content. Since usually the individuals are off playing games, or not actually on their pc at all?!
